RAYMOND'S CHILDHOOD FAVORITE COMIC - AVENGERS #158

as a kid growing up... i discovered comics in the 80's due to my uncle had a huge collection
of comics ...i'm talking DC,MARVEL,DARK HORSE,FIRST COMICS etc
it was times i would sneak in his room to read them LOL i know shame on me but
it was addition i could not stop.i discovered alot of big events like Secret Wars,
Crisis on Infinite Earth,Tales of  The Teen Titans Annual the list go's on.
 but what really really caught my eye out of my uncle's collection
was his Avengers collection.which were 1977classic's he kept in plastic comic bags.i feel in love with the Avengers ...i'm talking classic Avengers comics in the 1977 era.this love was Avengers issue 158 written by
Jim Shooter art by Sal Buscema.man when i saw the cover that said"Wonder Man vs Vision" i took the bait
i was hook no doubt about it. Wonder Man versus the Vision was a true battle between brawn and  telekinetic
sentient energy was mind blowing.Vision attacks Wonder Man because of his closeness to the Scarlet Witch. The Avengers travel to an isolated research facility in the Canadian Rockies and are defeated by Graviton. it was like a two battles in one comic deal you got from Marvel


the villain Graviton was created by Jim Shooter and Sal Buscema his first appears was in Avengers #158
this guy wasn't no joke...he gave The Avengers hell.
