Countdown to Halloween 2023 AVENGERS "Night of the Collector" Part 1

...well that (and our LINK) certainly-covered those plot points, eh?
So let's get to the action from Marvel's Avengers #119 (1973)...
Who, in 2023, can't sympathize with forgetting to turn off the burglar alarm after a long day?
Fanboy Footnotes:
1) You'll note the footnote reference in panel 1 to the previous Marvel heroes'/heroines' visits...including the one which overlapped Thor and The Beast with the Justice League of America!
2) The real-life Tom Fagan was one of the founders of the super-hero incarnation of the Rutland Halloween Parade.
His comic multiverse counterpart appears in almost every comic set at the parade.
In DC books he dresses as The Batman.
In Marvel titles, he wears the garb of NightHawk, originally a member of the Squadron Sinister, later a member of the Squadron Supreme (both created to be a counterpoint to DC's Justice League of America, so Nighthawk is Marvel's Batman surrogate!)
Wow, that was fun...

Note: at this point in Marvel continuity, neither The Collector's real name (Taneleer Tivan) nor the fact he was one of the Elders of the Universe, were known!
To Be Concluded TOMORROW!
