Notes

Although this issue takes place directly after Avengers #5, Iron Man is drawn wearing the helmet he started wearing in Tales of Suspense 54, which as far as evidence suggests happened after the events of Avengers #5 & 6.
Baron Zemo, although first appearing in this issue, is responsible for the drone plane that killed Bucky in the flashback depicted in Avengers 4, where he is depicted in one panel as a featureless background figure, and his hand only is shown in another.
The Black Knight was last seen in Tales to Astonish 52 where he was defeated by Giant Man and the Wasp.
The Melter last appeared in Tales of Suspense 47, where he was defeated by Iron Man.
Radioactive Man last appeared in Journey Into Mystery 93 where he was supposedly destroyed by Thor.
Paste Pot Pete, who is depicted in jail in this issue, was defeated by the Human Torch back in Strange Tales 110 after a failed team-up with the Wizard.
The Teen Brigade was last seen Avengers 5.
In page 19, the narrator mistakenly identifies Rick Jones as "Rick Brown".
Although defeated in this issue, Zemo would escape to terrorize the Avengers next issue.
Black Knight is captured and isn't seen again until Tales of Suspense 59.
The Melter is also captured and wouldn't appear again until Fantastic Four Annual 3.
Radioactive Man isn't seen again until Ultron forms a new Masters of Evil in Avengers 54.
Giant Man and Wasp will be seen again in Tales to Astonish 56, although published prior to this issue.
Iron Man would be seen again in Tales of Suspense 54, although published prior to this issue.
Thor would reappear in Journey Into Mystery 105, although published prior to this issue.
