The Korvac Saga is a 1978 The Avengers storyline, written by Jim Shooter. It is the tragic story of Michael Korvac and Carina.Michael Korvac was an evil cyborg from the 30th century who wanted vengeance against the Badoon, the alien race who were responsible for turning him into a cyborg. He found the ship of the legendary Galactus and began to take power from it. The alien energies gave him god like power, which he used to restore his human body. With his new power, he made an even greater plan: conceal himself from the cosmic powers and make subtle changes to reality, to end the control of Eternity.First, some former Avengers and other people close to them begin to disappear, vanishing into thin air, such as Quicksilver and the time-displaced Two-Gun Kid. Then the Guardians of the Galaxy came to the 20th century to capture Korvac, as they believe he will attempt to erase the Guardians from existence by killing Vance Astro in his infancy. To complicate matters even further, Henry Peter Gyrich revoked the special government permits of the Avengers because of their defective security.Starhawk, with his cosmic senses, locates Korvac immediately, and fights him alone. Korvac destroys him, and then recreates him, but with his memory of the meeting erased and incapable of ever sensing Korvac again. Korvac had also met a woman named Carina at a fashion show, and makes her his girlfriend.The Avengers begin to investigate the disappearances, and called for all the former Avengers to return to the team. With the help of the Guardians they locate the one responsible for everything: the Collector, who was defeated by Thor, Iron Man, Hawkeye and the Wasp. The Collector explains that there was a great menace to the Cosmos, and that he sought to capture the Avengers to save them from it. He had also sent his daughter to spy for him. As the Collector explained this, Carina confesses to Korvac that she is a spy, but has fallen in love with him. Korvac kills the Collector from a distance before he could tell the Avengers who "The Enemy" was.Everyone who had ever been an Avenger begins to search for this "Enemy". All the clues pointed to the same place: a luxurious house in Forest Hills Gardens. The Avengers arrive in Forest Hills, but only find a normal couple, Michael and Carina. Michael is revealed when Starhawk asks why the Avengers are talking to the air, indicating he could not see Michael, and is therefore the enemy they were searching for.Michael Korvac is worried because he had worked hard to hide himself, but a fight with the Avengers would be noticed by the cosmic powers. He easily bests them, but loses the will to live when Carina doubts him and died. Then the Avengers turn against Carina, who has cosmic power as well. Although she could also defeat them with ease, she commits suicide by forcing Thor's hammer to fire against herself. Moondragon begins to cry: she had read their minds, and realized that they were not evil, that the Avengers spoiled a well-intentioned plan, and that he brought the deceased back to life before dying.

Obstructive Bureaucrat: Henry Peter Gyrich revokes the government permits on the Avengers, and becomes a royal pain in the ass for a lot of time, beyond this specific storyline. Let's just say that, unable to use the Quinjets, the Avengers have to go to their great battle for the fate of the universe... on a bus.

Honor Before Reason: Averted. Iron Man tells the Black Panther to attack Carina, but he doesn't consider it honourable. Yellowjacket declares "screw honor" and takes Carina hostage himself. Michael burns him in the middle of his threat. At least the Black Panther got a compliment when Michael killed him...

Evil All Along
 The Korvac Saga (Comic Book) / int_4aa98555
comment
Evil All Along: When the saga received its first TPB release in 1991, it was with a new four-page scene in which the Avengers meet at Korvac's grave and muse about how he was really evil despite his good intentions. While there's merit to such a discussion, many readers have since interpreted it as a parting shot at the departing Jim Shooter, who had assumed the Editor-in-Chief position at Marvel subsequent to writing the story and upset many creators with his iron-handed control of the company.

Terminator Twosome: Subverted. The Guardians of the Galaxy think that Korvac returned to the 20th century to kill the young Vance Astro, and erase them from existence. Korvac did time-travel to the 20th century, but with much more ambitious plans in mind. He was quite happy to let the Guardians stay in the dark about his intentions, so that they made a pointless trip and leave him alone.

Hoist by His Own Petard: Starhawk found Korvac immediately, and fought him alone. Korvac killed him, and to secure his secrecy he recreated him, exactly as he was, but with no memory of their fight, and making him unable to see him again despite his deep senses. The Avengers found Korvac's house anyway, but failed to find anything out of the ordinary in it. They were about to return home empty-handed, but then the all-seeing Starhawk starts to ask why they are talking and expecting answers in an empty house? As he said that right in front of Korvac, it became obvious: if he could not see him, it's because he has blinded him somehow, which means that he is "the enemy".

comment
Leader Wannabe: Averted. Captain America fills this role against Iron Man (even trying to punch him during a scene). Some issues later, Iron Man accepted that Captain America's criticisms were right, and proposed to resign as leader and hand command of team to him. But Captain America refused, apologized for the old discussions, and accepted Iron Man's leadership.

Together in Death: Averted. After Michael's death, Carina fights the Avengers for a brief time, and then commits suicide to reunite with him in death. With her last breath, she jumps towards Michael's body... but her hand can't reach his, falling a few centimeters short.
