...no, this hasn't occurred...yet!
The Wasp receives a mysterious message that directs her to a meeting in Avengers Mansion...but not with the Avengers, but a new group of heroines led by a mysterious woman named Valkyrie!
The team heads for Rutland, where four Avengers; The Vision, Black Panther, Quicksilver, and Goliath II, have already arrived to protect a local scientist with a top-secret invention from a planned kidnapping!
Arriving just in time for the Rutland Halloween Parade (which the professor is participating in) the heroes encounter the Masters of Evil, who are now on the verge of victory...
For the record, the Enchantress did survive.Bad girls (and guys) have a knack for that sort of thing!
Written by Roy Thomas, penciled by John Buscema, and inked by Tom Palmer, Marvel's Avengers #83 (1970s) introduced the Rutland Halloween Parade into comics lore where it remained for a couple of decades!
At least one comic would set a tale at the parade every Halloween until the mid-1990s!
It's reappeared occasionally since then...
BTW, The Lady Liberators returned almost a half-century later, but that's a story for another time...
