"The Avengers Vs. The Defenders Chapter 4: Divide... and Conquer" - Continuing from the events in Avengers #116... The Silver Surfer has returned to Dr. Strange's Sanctum Sanctorum with the first fragment of the Evil Eye. He informs Dr. Strange that he met opposition from the Avengers. Using the Orb of Agamotto to check out what is going on, Dr. Strange gets an image that Loki is involved, and unaware that the Swordsman has reformed and joined the Avengers ranks, believes the Avengers may be under some evil influence.  "Chapter 5: The Invincible Iron Man Vs. Hawkeye the Archer!" - In Monterrey, Mexico, Valkyrie drops Hawkeye off to search for the fragment of the Evil Eye that is hidden there. Before Val can leave they are contacted by Dr. Strange who informs them that they may find opposition from members of the Avengers. As Val leaves for Bolivia, Hawkeye notices the arrival of Iron Man. And... "Chapter 6: Dr. Strange, Master of the Mystic Arts Vs. The Black Panther and Mantis!" - Arriving in Indiana, Dr. Strange begins looking for the next fragment of the Evil Eye, while elsewhere Black Panther and Mantis are combing the area looking for it as well. During their search, the two Avengers end up at a bus station where the enhanced senses of the Mantis detect that Dr. Strange is near and disguised.
