Marvel Comics' Secret War was published from 1984 to 1985 and was a widely popular 12-issue limited series. Secret Wars was Marvel's first major crossover event, bringing together iconic heroes and villains from all over the Marvel Universe. These characters were all brought together by the cosmic entity known as the Beyonder, who was fascinated by the idea of good and evil. Taking place on a patchwork planet called Battleworld, heroes like Spider-Man and members of The Avengers, the X-Men, and the Fantastic Four clash with iconic villains Doctor Doom, Magneto, Doc Ock, and Ultron. The event was created to sell toys by giving fans an impressive cast of characters to collect in one story, and it was a major success. Plenty of legendary moments occurred in the series, like Doctor Doom becoming god-like, legendary team-ups, and even the debut of Spider-Man in his black suit,
