Enter the Phoenix in 'Avengers' #39

In the harsh, primordial world of One Million B.C.E., early humans who are different are left in the Burnt Place to die. But one young girl whose only crime was being born with red hair finds something else entirely in the place of bones and ash—something that will change human history forever.

On December 9, in AVENGERS #39... Enter the Phoenix.

Written by Jason Aaron with art by Dale Keown and colors by Jason Keith, the ancient account follows on the tail of the Age of Khonshu arc, which saw the Avengers save Earth from the god of the Moon...only to discover the return of a certain planet-burning cosmic firebird.
