#26

Acts of Vengeance begins in this issue and is one of the few major Marvel crossovers not anchored by one-shots or a limited series. The concept is that the major villains of the Marvel Universe (Red Skull, Dr. Doom, Magneto, Mandarin, Kingpin, Wizard and Loki) arrange to have bad guys who normally fight a particular hero switch up and battle a different foe, presumably for a better result. The crossover officially ran through the following books: Alpha Flight #79, 80; The Amazing Spider-Man #326-329; The Avengers #311-313; Avengers Spotlight #26-29; Avengers West Coast #53-55; Captain America #365-367; Mutant Misadventures of Cloak and Dagger #9; Damage Control (1989 series) #1-4; Daredevil #275, 276; Dr. Strange, Sorcerer Supreme #11-13; Fantastic Four #334-336; The Incredible Hulk #363; Iron Man #250-252; Marc Spector: Moon Knight #8-10; New Mutants #84-86; Power Pack #53; Punisher (1987 series) #28, 29; Punisher War Journal #12; Quasar #5, 6; Spectacular Spider-Man #158-160; Thor #411, 412; The Uncanny X-Men #256-258; Web of Spider-Man #59-61; Wolverine (1989 series) #19, 20; X-Factor #50.
