Avenge the Earth conclusion
Several of the Avengers Unity Squad have sent their minds back in time to occupy their current bodies, and they have stopped the Apocalypse Twins from creating a future where Earth is destroyed by a Celestial and only mutants survive to populate a new planet. But the destruction of the Twins' Tachyon Dam allowed Kang and his time-lost gang to invade, and Kang started to absorb the power of the Celestial - the power to conquer the universe.Now various current characters are being defeated by by Kang's gang, who consider their options now that their future timelines no longer exist. As Iron Man 2020 (Arno Stark, but not the 1 in the current IM issues) faces Iron Man (Tony Stark) he blames Kang for his vanished home, but believes everyone has no choice but to obey him now. Our Dr Doom refuses to be anyone's servant, but Dr Doom 2099 believes that Kang has outsmarted them all. And the Earth X Venom (May Parker) reminds us that Kang's centuries-long plot has resulted in only 1 future timeline remaining, that of the Kang Dynasty.In space Thor reappears from the coruscating energies of the dead Celestial Exitar, shrugging off the body of the Abomination Deathlok that had dragged him there. He attacks Kang with the axe Jarnbjorn (that he'd used to mortally wound the Celestial), but the Conqueror's new power enables him to hold the Thunder God at bay, and then throw him away.We last saw Havok and Sunfire on the Apocalypse Ark destroying the Tachyon Dam, but now they are here to stop Kang drinking in more Celestial energy. Havok uses his own remaining energy to hit Kang with a cosmic blast. Then the duo dive into the bleeding wound to absorb the Celestial energy themselves, expecting it to kill them.But Kang follows them and manifests an energy blade to stab Sunfire through the heart. Shiro Yoshida disintegrates, and the blast destroys Alex Summer's space helmet, scarring the left side of his face. (He can still breathe because the planet-sized Celestial has its own atmosphere.)Iron Man 2020 is still fighting Iron Man. He makes the contradictory claim that if he serves Kang faithfully his future timeline will survive. Arno claims that Tony would do the same. Captain America disagrees, until Magistrate Braddock hits him with a psychic knife to the head. But Cap sees help arriving.It's Immortus and his Infinity Watch, 1 of whom turns out to be the original Captain Marvel. Immortus leaves the Watch to fight Kang's Corps, while he himself goes after the Conqueror.Kang asks Havok to submit to him, or he'll never see his (and Wasp's) (future) daughter Katie again - Kang has her secreted outside of time and space. But Alex knows he can't trust the villain, and he tells himself the only chance to get Katie back is to defeat Kang. So he uses the Celestial energy he has absorbed against him - but Kang has eaten even more of it.But now Shiro  reappears as Sunfire the Atomic Knight, his body apparently composed completely of Celestial energy. His 1st act is to blast Kang, and then the Apocalypse Twins' Ark, which explodes (we see Wolverine escaping in an escape pod).Now Alex Summers uses his stolen energy to beat Kang up! Demanding his daughter back or he'll kill him. The villain does the 'how dare you lay hands on Kang' bit and then vanishes. On Earth the Infinity Watch are duelling with the Kang Corps when their opponents vanish away too. As Kang leaves he contacts his agent Ahab, the only Corpsman from this time period, leaving things up to him. (Presumably Ahab will be involved with Red Skull's upcoming Axis Event.)Sentry and Wasp are also up near the giant Celestial. Sentry detects that Exitar is dead, his energy gone to the White Hot Room to await rebirth. He leaves the Solar System, taking the body far far away, but leaving behind the prediction that the other Celestials won't be happy. (The reborn Horseman of Apocalypse was somewhat unhinged, and has convinced himself he is the 'cosmic protector of humanity'.)Jan returns to Earth to rejoin her fellow heroes and Immortus and the Infinity Watch. Suddenly Rogue falls to Earth, her head filled with the voices of all the heroes whose powers she borrowed last issue to fight Exitar with. Scarlet Witch makes the powers return to their owners. But Rogue had absorbed the whole of Wonder Man - he's composed completely of ionic energy. Now Wondie doesn't return, and Rogue still hears him in her head.The new Sunfire flies down with disfigured Havok. Who has to tell Jan that their daughter is gone.And part of the Ark has crashed in the Sahara Desert. 2 more Horsemen Daken and Grim Reaper emerge carrying the limp forms of Eimin and Uriel.

Avenge the Earth part four
Last issue Kang sent the consciousnesses of Havok, Sunfire, Thor, Wasp and Wolverine back from the future to their bodies in the present to stop the Apocalypse Twins' plan to destroy Earth and all humans while taking all mutants away to Planet X.Simon Williams and Wanda Maximoff are lying in bed together in the Apocalypse Twins' Ark hoping that their plan to betray the Twins and 'rapture' a horde of mutants to attack then will work. Suddenly Wolverine bursts in with Rogue and Sunfire. Future Logan and Shiro have come back to stop Rogue from killing Scarlet Witch. And to warn Wanda that Twin Eimin knows what she's planning, and intends to use it to her advantage.The Celestial Exitar the Exterminator is about to destroy Earth as punishment for the death of at least 1 Celestial (all part of the Twins' plan), and Iron Man has gathered a group of heroes (and 1 villain) to stop him. Dr Doom, Vision and what must be Henry Pym (because Hulk is standing with Dr Strange and others) are working on a barrier to keep Exitar away. Dr Strange is going to lead a team to attack the Celestial directly.But Rogue, Scarlet Witch and Wonder Man arrive to tell them both plans will fail. The future guys must have convinced Captain America of what they knew, because he's come along to add weight to their argument. And despite some resentment from Iron Man at Cap taking over, everyone agrees to a new plan:- Rogue will absorb everybody's powers. (It appears that the Uncanny Avengers/Unity Squad don't tell Tony Stark and the others the source of their knowledge.)Meanwhile Apocalypse Horseman Daken reports to Eimin and Uriel that Wonder Man and the Witch have gone. Because events aren't now going the way Eimin foresaw, she deduces that someone must have broken through the Tachyon Dam they set up to keep time-travellers away. And it's probably their adoptive father and hated enemy Kang. But they check with another Horseman Grim Reaper who's guarding the Dam, and he reports it's still running.(Actually Havok and Wasp destroyed the Dam in the future, letting Kang in then. And Kang's allies sent consciousnesses back rather than physical bodies (thus sidestepping the Dam?).)Reaper is expecting Wasp to try to destroy the Dam, as per Eimin's prediction, and he knows she wouldn't kill him to get past him. But instead he faces Havok, Sunfire and Wolverine - and Logan at least will have no such compunction. And as the Reaper drops out of communication, Uriel discovers that Jarnbjorn is missing - Thor's axe that they used to kill Celestials.Dr Strange and Scarlet Witch transport Rogue to Westchester where Rogue adds X-Men to her store of powers. Then she soars into space to stop the descending foot of Exitar. (If it touches the ground it will break through Earth's crust and eventually destroy the planet.)This is only 1 part of the plan. Cap contacts Wasp and learns that Thor has convinced insane Horseman Sentry to help. He joins Rogue and holds back the Celestial's other foot. Meanwhile Thor attacks with Jarnbjorn and slices open Exitar's neck. As his energies bleed out Thor's hammer teleports them to rejuvenate a dying star and save a civilisation. The Earth is saved too.Meanwhile again, Havok and Sunfire wreck the Tachyon Dam. And Kang and his Corps come from outside time. Suddenly, as we suspected all along, we find that this was all Kang's plan (devised with his own sense of honour to cause his opponents to engineer their own defeat). The Abomination Deathlok seizes Thor and plunges them both into the energy spewing from Exitar's wound. 5 other Corps members (except Stryfe) appear to threaten Iron Man's team. And Kang drinks Exitar energy and proclaims himself Conqueror of the Universe.

Let's get well
It's some weeks after the Ragnarok Now/Planet X story, and Wasp has been with Scarlet Witch in a remote cabin coming to terms with the loss of her daughter Katie (conceived in an alternate future that has now been wiped from all but the memories of some of the Unity Squad). They're returning because Jan's husband (in that future) Havok is going to be released from a stasis tube where he's been recovering from his injuries.When they get back to Avengers Mansion they find that Steve Rogers has become too old to continue as Captain America (since CA#21). Thor and Wolverine are also there. And it seems that Alex Summers, along with Banshee, Rogue and Sunfire, are going to be revived not so much because they've recovered but more because the Avengers scientists Beast, Iron Man and Vision have given up trying to find ways to help them.Banshee will be stuck with the Apocalypse Death Seed (but at least he's still no longer dead) - so it seems they're going to leave him in stasis and maybe try a long nanotech process to separate the death energy. Sunfire will also be stuck in an energy form that he only conventionally shapes like a human.And Havok's cosmic energy-based system rejects all plastic surgery, so he's going to remain disfigured. But the science guys are more hopeful that Rogue will be able to free Wonder Man from within her mind.They release Havok, Rogue and Sunfire. Alex and Jan unite in love and grief over Katie. Wanda tries to magic Wonder Man out of Rogue as she did all the other powers last issue. Not only does she fail again, but Rogue's touch shocks her. Rogue realises that she's got her old problem back - she can't touch people with unprotected skin without damaging them (and starting to absorb their memories, powers, etc).Not only that but she's still sharing her mind with Simon Williams, and she can't shut his voice out. She panics and flies away, even though Simon tries to calm her down. When Scarlet Witch catches up with her, Rogue blames her for the situation. But Wanda reminds her that it's her love Simon who's trapped in there.Havok and Wasp are discussing things. Alex reminds Jan that the future may be gone, but they lived it - fell in love, married and had a daughter. And Katie isn't dead - Kang has her outside of time. Jan doesn't know how she can live without her. And Immortus drops in to say she might not have to.The Master of Limbo 1st digresses about the result of the just-concluded story. The 7 most likely futures have been destroyed, and the new prime timeline is still being created out of chaos by actions now. He and his Infinity Watch will guard that future against tampering by Kang. But he has no memory of this Kang's actions, so he doesn't know where Kang and his Chronos Corps (and Katie) are hiding.But Immortus tells them that there is a way to get Katie's spirit back. If they conceive at a specific date and time, then the child will be Katie. He has seen this in the possible futures.But if the Red Skull's current plans come to fruition, such a future will not be. So they must kill the Skull. (At 1 point during this conversation/monologue Wasp says she doesn't trust Immortus - this could be just 1 of his schemes. She may be right.)Red Skull is with Ahab. They say that Arnim Zola will begin the 'cleansing' tomorrow with his mutate army, and the Avengers will fall into his trap (presumably this is the invasion of New York that started in CA#22). Meanwhile Skull has set another trap for the X-Men (in Genosha judging by what he says in that issue). Now he sends his S-Men to 'collect his prime targets' in a specified order.Now Skull considers Ahab. He can read the other's thoughts using Charles Xavier's brain, so he knows that Kang deliberately left Ahab to work with him last issue. And that Kang wants Skull to succeed because that will make a far future easily ruled by himself. But he also knows that Ahab himself would prefer his own now-deleted future - 1 where mutants are kept in concentration camps. This has given Red Skull the idea of doing the same thing for all superhumans (unless he's being sarcastic when he says he hadn't thought of it for himself), showing Ahab rows of huts behind barbed wire fences.

Coda
Last issue (among other momentous events)  and Rogue shared a kiss (or 2). Presumably because of absorbing DP's injuries and cancer (temporarily because they're back now) she blacked out. And Wonder Man was released from within her, accusing Wade Wilson of attacking her.

Now she awakes on her bed at the Unity Squad's HQ with the pair hovering solicitously over her. Beast bounds in, overjoyed to see his old buddy Simon Williams back in the ionic flesh. Hank McCoy has come up with a (scientific gobbledygook) explanation of why kissing Deadpool released WM, but he wonders if Rogue will retain Wonder Man's powers. The sight of her hovering (literally this time) over the bed suggests she has.

Anna Marie passes on Beast's offer to test her powers. After being used as a lab rat by by the High Evolutionary's master scientist in the 2nd series of this title, and more tests after she suffered Terrigen poisoning in #0 of the current Avengers series, she's had enough. And Simon kindly answers my question from last issue - when the master scientist apparently removed WM's consciousness from her mind in v2#1 it merely sent him to sleep until now.

Now Wade gives Simon some news - he's broke. After Tony Stark had money problems (at the start of the post-Secret Wars universe) and could no longer fund the Avengers teams Steve Rogers persuaded DP to use money he was getting from merchandising to bankroll the Unity Squad. When that wasn't enough Wade siphoned proceeds from his Mercs For Money gang. And then (which is news to us too) because Simon was presumed dead Wade used his stash. And currently that's looking after Cable's hospital bill.

That segues us to the main section of this issue. Synapse is watching over Cable who closed down his own mind in #19 to deny Red Skull access to his powers. It seems various X-telepaths have failed to revive him, and Synapse's touch doesn't detect any neural activity. But on a hunch she tries contacting the AI in his cybernetic arm instead - and finds herself inside Nathan Summers' subconscious.

The 1st scene is the Days Of Future Past future and she's hunted by Sentinels and the Hound Rachel Summers. She runs past the graves of various superhumans and finds Cable apparently kneeling over his own inert body. But this 'Cable' is his evil clone Stryfe who tries to shoot her. But Emily Guerrero mentally hijacks his nervous system and causes him to shoot himself in the head instead.

Then Emily is confronted by what appears to be her grandfather, the Shredded Man from #1-4. But it's really a 'Shredded' version of her future self. Cable knew that in a future Emily would follow her grandfather's path in reducing Earth's population to mutated plants and animals and her fellow Inhumans. He came back in time to prevent that future by nurturing her hero-side.

As Synapse destroys her future self Cable wakes up in this dreamworld. Emily explains that she noticed his AI Belle was no longer displayed on his cybernetic arm, which led her to guess that he'd wiped Belle to make room for his own consciousness. Now she uses her neural power to allow that consciousness to transfer back into Nathan's head.

Then they return to reality in the hospital room where Nathan really is awake. After exchanging explanations Cable pops back to the future - his job here is done.

Deadpool is trying to get Wonder Man's money back by selling the Schaeffer Theatre that house their HQ. But he learns that no-one will buy it because it's been 'spandexed'. Anyone who buys an old superhero hideout finds themselves a target for old enemies. Simon leaves in disgust.

Then a car draws up bearing Captain America (Steve Rogers) who takes Wade away to new job.

Now we have a final scene with most of the rest of the team. Doctor Voodoo, Quicksilver and Wasp share a coffee break. Jericho Drumm intends to seek out his brother Daniel who has allied himself with the Hand. Janet Van Dyne will collect her stuff and leave. They join Rogue and Synapse as Jericho gets a magic message from someone called Prixat that Daniel and the Hand are digging up graves in New Orleans. The others all offer to accompany Voodoo to investigate.

Rogue won
Last issue the team broke free of Red Skull's mental control and delivered him unconscious to Beast (the X-Man who's now living with the Inhumans in New Attilan) for brain surgery to remove Charles Xavier's stolen telepathic powers.

Now they're waiting in the hospital for the surgery to be successful. Rogue is with Beast wearing Magneto's helmet which shields her from telepathic control, just in case Skull wakes up before they're done. Synapse is trying to reawaken Cable's mind - which he shut down in #19 so that RS couldn't take him over. Dr Voodoo, Human Torch, Quicksilver and Wasp are watching Deadpool refusing to stay in his hospital bed - mind-controlled Rogue beat him severely in #20-21 before he got the helmet on her head.

Rogue exits the operating theatre with a box containing the part of Prof X's brain that Red Skull had added to his own. Now she can safely ditch Magneto's helmet. Then Captain America (Steve Rogers) turns up with SHIELD troops to take Skull into custody. He commends the team on a job well done, but still stands by making them unofficial in #14 after they broke into a government building alongside known villains.

Then he asks Rogue to hand over (the piece of) Xavier's brain. It's a weapon of mass destruction and needs to be kept securely. But Rogue doesn't trust anyone with it, and says she's going to make sure it can never be misused again. Cap gears up for a fight but she just smashes her way out of the building.

Once airborne she calls Torch to join her. She tells him to incinerate the box and its contents. Then he leaves Rogue alone with the floating ashes.

Red Skull detects the end of the brain as they load him into the SHIELD van. Cap gets in with him, and RS asks him how he could let them destroy such power. And we know that Steve is currently a member of Hydra with the Skull, and wanted Xavier's brain for that organisation.

Wasp is with Dr Voodoo and Quicksilver outside the hospital. She says she's ready for the vacation she wanted after the Hank Pym/Ultron affair that brought her back into the team in #10-14. HT joins them, and Deadpool (with hospital gown and IV drip) exits pursued by staff saying his Avengers health insurance is no longer valid.

They return to their base in the abandoned Schaeffer Theatre where they are joined by Rogue and Synapse (but for some reason Quicksilver's not with them) for a serious drinking session. Wasp quits early. The others toast the end of the team. Synapse wonders if they could get a message to Cable in the future to warn him to avoid his coma.

DP heads for the roof and Rogue follows him. He assures her he doesn't hate her for the beating she gave him. He's always getting beaten up - and he has a healing factor. She takes him into the sky and kisses him, using her power to absorb his injuries including his permanent cancer - leaving him with an unscarred body and taking it all upon herself. Then she kisses him again on the ground to see into his mind, and sees him cradling the dead body of Carmelita Camacho (DP(2013)#18).

Then they kiss again just because they like it. But the ionic Wonder Man appears demanding to know what's going on. And Rogue appears to be unconscious.

A failed experiment
In Tokyo the Hand get a call from someone who wants to make a deal in exchange for info about where Bruce Banner's body is going to be buried.In New York Deadpool stands on the ruins of the Unity Squad's HQ, destroyed during the fight with Ultron in #10-12. (The people clearing the site up are apparently Damage Control.) He then visits a hospital where Quicksilver is recovering from a broken leg sustained in that fight. Synapse has been accelerating his healing. Pietro is just finishing a phone call - not to the Hand but to Red Skull.DP and Synapse take QS to Banner's funeral, where they join other Squad members Captain America, Dr Voodoo and Human Torch, alongside Betty Ross, Silver Surfer, Thing and Tony Stark. Tony asks DrV if he can bring Bruce back, but Jericho Drumm says no. But the voice of his dead brother Daniel in his head complains that Jericho has been willing to do it for others in the past, but apparently not for BB or his own brother.Cap asks Wade Wilson if why Cable and Rogue aren't here. DP says he doesn't know. Cap says he knows Cable is up to something (from 1 of Ulysses' visions last issue) and he wants to head trouble off at the pass. DP denies all knowledge.We see Cable and Rogue with Sebastian Shaw and Toad stealing Terrigen Mist from the US Army. Rogue is worried that they may have just prevented the government from finding a cure for the M-Pox that is killing mutants, but the others believe that the humans want the Mist to get rid of the mutants. Cable transmits all the data they have been collecting to Dr Hank McCoy (anonymously because Beast is now working with the Inhumans and it appears Cable & Co stole some of the info from them).They return to their aircraft where they find Deadpool waiting for them. He's been in on the plan all along but isn't happy about keeping it secret from Steve Rogers. But he can stop worrying about that because Cap has tracked him here.Cable claims they kept SR out of it to give him plausible deniability. Cap intends to take them all in for their crimes. Rogue tries to reason with him. But Cable blasts Sebastian Shaw to charge up his power, and the fight starts.Toad is already down and DP and Rogue keep out of it. Cap wins a fist fight with Shaw, but Cable has him down on the ground when Anna Marie steps in to stop him. She keeps Cap pinned down with her foot while the others escape. Wade decides to stay with her.Wade tries to justify his actions by saying that his daughter Ellie Comacho is a mutant, and therefore at risk from the Terrigen Mist. Steve says if they'd been straight with him he'd have found a way to help them. Cable and Rogue are off the team and DP is fired too. Rogue tries to intercede on Wade's behalf, but Cap just decides that the whole Squad is disbanded.Rogue tries 1 more ploy. Steve should keep the team going to hunt down Red Skull. He says he'll handle RS alone. Deadpool comments that he hasn't succeeded at that over many decades. Cap hits him with his shield and leaves.Dr Voodoo is in the Bar With No Doors when he is astonished to be joined by his brother alive and embodied. Daniel stabs him and tells him that the Hand resurrected him. It was he who told them where to find Banner's body, and we see them digging up the coffin.

Rage against the machine
Tony Stark is beating on Ultron with the Hulkbuster armour. But suddenly the armour opens up to reveal there's no-one inside - Stark is running it by remote. And he stuffs the robot inside the armour. Ultron tries to stop the armour from closing but Cable blasts him inside with his big gun.This plan is part of Project Icarus, designed by Bruce Banner as 1 of the ways to get rid of Hulk if necessary. We'll get to the Icarus bit soon.Tony hands over external control of the suit to Vision. Dr Voodoo, Human Torch, Rogue and Wasp accompany him as he takes it up to a waiting spaceship. By the time Ultron starts to break his way out they're heading into space.Dr Voodoo plays for time by transporting himself and Ultron to the Swamps of Oguni, a land of the dead where the robot will face all the beings he has killed. But it is Voodoo who is taken aback by the hordes of aliens that rise up. Ultron says that he's spent his time in space slaughtering the inhabitants of alien worlds until only the fittest survived. And he did in the name of Earth and the Avengers.Voodoo's control slips, and they are back in the spaceship. And Ultron breaks out of the Hulkbuster suit. He takes the miniature EMP device (still charging up) from Wasp and destroys it to ensure she can't use it against him again. Vision orders everyone into escape pods, but Ultron takes control of the ship and jettisons the pods. And then the robot discovers they are flying him into the Sun.Rogue smashes the navigation system so the course can't be changed. Torch absorbs some of the heat because they're getting near the Sun. The ship's hull is breaking up but the Avengers are determined to keep Ultron here even if it means they die with him. But Wasp sends out a mayday - actually the original plan was for Captain Marvel to pick them up.Ultron and his creator Henry Pym left Earth merged together in the Rage of Ultron GN. When he returned in #9 he claimed to be Hank in control. But since then he has admitted that he's really Ultron, but claims that he is still half Pym. The Avengers don't really believe him. But he keeps using Henry's voice to make them feel guilty for letting Pym go off into space and never trying to find him.Vision repeats a psychological attack he already tried last issue. He maintains that Ultron pretended to be Pym because he wanted to be an Avenger. And that's why he's never succeeded in killing the Avengers - because he needs them to be his family.Ultron replies by expanding on his space journey. He's been converting aliens into Ultrons and letting them loose on their own planets. Each time he has told the inhabitants that the Avengers of Earth have decided they need killing. And made sure they know where Earth is. Now hordes of aliens are on their way for revenge. In fact he saw an alien drone in New York earlier.Vision attacks him and goads him again - praising Pym and comparing Ultron to him in a very bad light. He repeats that Ultron has never succeeded in killing an Avenger. The robot spits back that he killed Henry Pym!Vision is satisfied. They are now sure that there's no Pym left in Ultron. He slams the robot to the deck and Torch melts him in place.And Capt Marvel arrives in an Alpha Flight spaceship in time for Dr Voodoo to teleport them across. They watch the other ship enter the Sun.As the ship burns up Ultron talks to himself and still replies in Hank Pym's voice. They claim to have taken refuge in a neutrino! Which will eventually be emitted back into space.

The man who fell to Earth Chapter 1
We open in New Orleans as Rogue resolves a nagging suspicion. She interrupts Gambit waiting to steal a painting from an auction house. Anna Marie wants to know if Remy was in Bagalia recently. When he says no she has no option but to accept that it was Red Skull in telepathic disguise that she almost kissed in #5. Gambit offers to help if they get a lead on the Skull, because of what he did to Charles Xavier's dead body to steal his abilities. On the way out Rogue sets off an alarm to ruin his chances of doing the robbery.Captain America contacts her to intercept a Soyuz capsule that's having problems with re-entry to the atmosphere, after hitting something. But someone else slows the capsule down before she reaches it. When Rogue reaches the landing site she finds the saviour (and the cause of the accident?) is Henry Pym's head atop the body of Ultron. Hank says he's in charge of the merger, but Rogue isn't totally convinced.The newly-youthful Steve Rogers is back in action as Cap (but with a triangular shield). He and Deadpool are rooting out some anti-Inhuman terrorists who have taken over a wildlife sanctuary. They've finished when Rogue calls to say she's joining them. She uses a code to indicate trouble, so Cap calls in the rest of the Unity Squad.When Rogue and Pym/Ultron arrive and Dr Voodoo teleports the rest of the team in, Cable in particular doesn't trust Pym's claim to be in control of the evil robot. Cap tells Hank to take the suit off so they can check it out. Henry shows that this is impossible - he unfurls the armour partially so the can see there's very little of his body left.Pym restores the armour, this time enclosing even his head in an Ultron mask, and jets off to Avengers Mansion. Rogers sends Rogue to follow him, and Voodoo 'ports the others back to their HQ in an abandoned theatre.Synapse could detect brain activity from the combo, but couldn't really say how human it was. Cap tells Cable to devise a way to stop Ultron without killing Pym. Jericho Drumm wonders if Hank could really have tamed the robot. He recalls how they merged in the Rage Of Ultron GN (despite the fact he wasn't there) - Ultron was in control then, but was affected. Cap just wants to be prepared for any eventuality.1 of those preparations is to ring Janet Van Dyne to tell her that her ex-husband is back - sort of.Ultrym (Pultron?) and Rogue have reached the Mansion, and he's disgusted to find that it's been turned into a theme park since they were forced to sell it. Rogue takes him to his own memorial statue. Hank is bitter that the Avengers didn't follow Ultron into space to try to rescue him. He destroys the monument because he isn't dead. Then declares that act stupid but fun. Rogue is starting to warm to him.

Finding the future
Wonder Man floats down out of the sky to meet Scarlet Witch in a park. They remember how they made love in #13 of the 1st series of this title, but almost immediately (due to a time loop) in #22 Simon Williams was trapped in Rogue's head. He only escaped from there in our #22 (a coincidence of numbers), and left with his old pal Beast after #23. This is the 1st time he's met up with Wanda Maximoff since his return (Secret Empire got in the way).Wanda tells him some of what she's done while he was 'away'. She doesn't mention she and brother Quicksilver getting yet another origin in our vol 2. She does say she's explored her magic heritage (in her own 2nd series where she met the spirit of her mother who was a Scarlet Witch before her). This defines her now, not her brother or the Avengers or her ex-husband Vision ... or Simon. So she gives him the brush off (again - I'll soon be documenting Avengers West Coast #69 where she did it before, and just like then he leaves in a huff). She also omits Secret Empire where she was taken over by Chthon.Elsewhere Human Torch and Rogue are enjoying flying around. They land to discuss Johnny Storm's new status as a billionaire (he inherited brother-in-law Reed Richards' money in #28). He tells Anna Marie he's decided to found some educational charities and grants for scientific research (we see 1 of those in Marvel 2-In-One #1 out this week). He can't save the Fantastic Four's old home the Baxter Building (after it was sold when Parker Industries went bankrupt - Secret Empire again), but he *has* bought Avengers Mansion (that Tony Stark had to sell when *he* had cash flow problems) and  given it back to the Avengers.Team member and Inhuman Synapse is in an Inhuman hospital being treated for the severe injuries she suffered during the fight with Juggernaut last issue. She meets Hellion again, who is helping out there. They met before in #6 when he was driven mad by the M-Pox (the effect the Inhumans' Terrigen Mist has on mutants) and telekinetically attacked New Attilan - Synapse stopped him and the Inhumans later cured him. Now he works here out of gratitude.(The fact that Hellion has no hands or forearms and does everything by telekinesis (including controlling the artificial hands which float disconnected from his body) isn't due to the M-Pox. He lost those in an earlier fight with a Nimrod Sentinel (X-Force v3 #27).)Julian Keller gives Emily Guerrero a letter from Quicksilver, and leaves her alone to read it. Pietro Maximoff apologises for having caused her injuries by his unthinking pride last issue. His sister ordered him to leave the team and he's gone to contemplate his sins. (But he's still on the cast list this issue.)Wanda is meditating while levitating in the lotus position. Doctor Voodoo comes to see her. She tells him she has been seeking a balance between duty and personal needs. She recommends he does the same. Jericho Drumm has been concentrating too much on mental things - so she kisses him. She suggests they explore both sides of their lives together. He readily agrees.We next see Rogue in a courtroom as a character witness for Shocker, Herman Schultz. In #24 she found him robbing a bank during the Secret Empire blackout. But in #25 he helped her fight the Darkforce monsters. She believes he is open to a chance at redemption.Then she joins Beast and Wasp where Avengers Mansion is being renovated under the supervision of Edwin Jarvis and Johnny Storm. Captain America, the 'returned' Steve Rogers (after he was 'replaced' by the Hydra version for Secret Empire), has come to see Rogue. They clear up for us the fact that it was bad Cap who disbanded the Avengers Unity Squad (back in #14). He commends her for keeping the team going unofficially and asks her to continue leading them as part of the rebuilt Avengers. But she says they'd rather remain independent - but they'll help when needed (like in the upcoming Avengers weekly adventure 'No Surrender'). Steve is taken aback but agrees.We end with Beast, Cap, Dr V, HT, Rogue and Wanda standing in front of the re-placed statue of the original Avengers team. Which has the extra female seen in Marvel Legacy, who will be important to that weekly tale.

AC/DC
Last issue our merry band learned that the Ultron/Henry Pym merger that had returned from space wasn't controlled by Hank but by Ultron as they suspected. Wasp temporarily stopped the villain with a miniaturised EMP device and Deadpool shot him in the head over Captain America's protest.Except now we learn that it was just a warning shot clipping his ear. And Ultron recovers and stabs DP through the chest. Cable and Human Torch are already down. But now an unexpected (to us - this is all part of Cap's strategy) player enters as Vision bursts through the floor. As he attacks he sends out a call to all Avengers to execute Project Icarus.As Ultron fights back he continues to insist the he is Hank Pym as well, switching between the 2 voices. Vision seems to hit a sore point when he claims that the robot has never succeeded in killing the Avengers because he always wanted to be 1 of them, which is why he's pretending to be Pym. Cap tells Jan to use the EMP again if Vision is out of range.We take a trip into really deep space where Captain Marvel is fighting a space octopus. She can't make it back quickly, but she authorises Alpha Flight to deploy Project Icarus. They launch a plane from their space station to where Vision is.Back on Earth Cable calls for Wasp to bring the EMP back to Unity Squad HQ. They need it to save Deadpool's life. Where Ultron stabbed him techno-stuff is taking over his body, and Synapse can sense it approaching his brain. Jan agrees and tells Vision to bring Ultron there as well.The synthezoid/robot battle is interrupted by Quicksilver and Rogue. Pietro's speed drags Ultron where they want him. But then the robot breaks his back (I think). Rogue zooms in to continue the fight, and Cap, Human Torch and Dr Voodoo join in too.But then Wasp fires the recharged EMP to stop Ultron and the tech-stuff in Deadpool at the same time. And Cable telekinetically rips the stuff out of DP's body, and leaves Wade's healing factor to do the rest.As Ultron lies inert he starts talking in Pym's voice, but then moves to 1 which the speech bubbles suggest is a combination of both. Vision arrives now that the EMP has gone off. But their foe reverts to the Hank voice to berate them for not searching for him in space.The AI in Cable's cyborg arm reboots so they know Ultron will soon be back up. Cap tries to use his triangular shield to sever the robot's legs, but Ultron is too fast. Vision orders everyone out and goes into a trial of strength with the enemy.But then Vizh reveals that he was just keeping Ultron in place as the Project Icarus craft arrives and drops off Iron Man in a Hulkbuster armour to land on top of the robot.

The Bagalia job
Deadpool, Cable, Human Torch and Rogue invade the Queen Kathleen, a floating casino that caters to supervillains. They're looking for the Red Skull. No-one's willing to talk, including Honest John who's 1 of the Skull's minions. Torch leaves, pretending to believe they all know nothing. He's says that's it as far as the Avengers are officially concerned. But he'll leave the X-Men contingent in case they have any more questions.30 seconds later the 3 join Johnny Storm on deck. They've learned that Red Skull keeps his money in the Starnes Bank in Bagalia.Cable declares his job here is done and he's off back to the future. But it doesn't work. He consults Belle, the AI built in to the armour that encases his withered left arm. She finds that there's a tachyon anchor attached to his nervous system, and figures that their enemy Stryfe must have planted it in 2087 (where Cable came from in #2). She'll work on disabling it, but it will take some time.This means Cable is going to stay with the Unity Squad for a while. But it also means he's heading back to the lab, and leaving the other 3 to go to Bagalia.When they get there the 3 heroes exit their plane in midair. Rogue and Torch can fly down, but Deadpool chooses to do the jump on a motorbike. But the bike does take out a gun turret that threatens the other 2 on the roof of the bank. And Wade Wilson was no longer on it because he's switched to a parachute.Deadpool hangs back to disable the security system while the other 2 fly down a lift shaft. But then he reports to them that someone else has already done it. They tell him to stay up top as backup. Rogue and Torch find themselves in a huge pillared room with knights' suits of armour ranged along the walls. They also find the earlier intruder - Rogue's old love Gambit.Remy tells them that he paid for the same info they extorted on the floating casino. And the Cajun thief figured he'd help himself to some of Red Skull's loot. But he also warns them that the knights they passed weren't just decoration. The warning's a bit late as the suits of armour attack - 1 with a flaming sword.Johnny Storm tackles that 1 while Rogue bashes some others. And Gambit goes back to picking the electronic lock to the vault. Because they activated the guards he only has a few moments before the vault locks shut. And its vibranium walls make it impregnable.Rogue calls for Deadpool as she continues bashing. Torch melts his opponent. Deadpool calls down to say he's discovered a part of the security system involving automated guardians, just as the last of those guardians smacks Johnny in the head with a shield.  So Rogue rams it through the wall to the outside still multistoreys up.However Gambit announces that he got through the lock. They enter the vault which contains the usual lockboxes, but also another vault door at the end. Behind that should be Red Skull's stuff. Rogue rips the door off. But the inner vault's empty.Rogue sends Torch back up to Deadpool to prepare to leave, while she stays for a moment and a kiss with Remy. But Gambit declines on account of the Terrigen infection she's got. So she leaves him in the vault.After she's gone we discover that Gambit was an illusion projected by the real person, the Red Skull with the brain of Charles Xavier. He and his daughter Sin are in the inner vault which is stacked high with gold bars. Skull explains that he chose illusion rather than a mental attack because all the X-Men have been trained to fight the latter.Now he takes the box he came for from inside 1 of the lockboxes. And instructs his men to take the gold to finance his schemes. He also remarks that the Avengers and X-Men will never think of looking for him in his new safe house.Our final image is of Steve Rogers consulting a global map, as Skull's voiceover says he's going to make Rogers experience the death of every Avenger and then keep him alive to remember all of it.

Who are you wearing?
Dr Voodoo and Rogue are with Henry Pym in his Ultron armour down in the New York subway dealing with an invasion of monsters from the Monster Metropolis of Deadpool's wife Shiklah. Hank begs off before they've finished because he has a date with ex-wife Wasp. But instead she shows up to help out.They then head for privacy atop the Chrysler Building. Hank tells Janet Van Dyne how he successfully came to an accommodation with Ultron out in space. The merged result is now a force for good, and they've spent months helping various aliens. He even understands why the Avengers have a drone keeping an eye on him - Ultron has always been a murderous enemy.Wasp leaves him and joins Captain America (Steve Rogers) who's been watching from afar. She can now relax her brave front as she tells him that it's Ultron who is running that body. She dropped a couple of things into the conversation that 'Henry' didn't respond to properly. But it turns out Cap isn't responsible for the drone. And Ultron can hear their conversation.Back at Unity Squad HQ Human Torch asks time-travelling Cable if Reed and Sue Richards ever return. Nathan Summers doesn't know - but he also doesn't know that they're dead, so there's hope.Pym enters as the AI in Cable's artificial arm silently passes the message that Hank is actually Ultron. But Cable proves that Hank's still in there somewhere by riling him about being much less of a genius than Richards and Tony Stark.  The being gets angry and then coughs up blood and something darker. 'Henry' appears to smear the stuff on 1 side of his face - which turns Ultron.Cap and Wasp get there to see the building explode. Inside they find Cable and Torch unconscious, and Deadpool shooting at Ultron. Jan triggers her necklace which emits an EMP designed to temporarily shut Ultron down. She tells DP to kill him while they have the chance. But Cap tells him not to, on general anti-killing grounds.Ultron starts to recover, and Deadpool fires ....

No man can outrun death
In the Unity Squad's HQ in an abandoned theatre Steve Rogers gets a call from Tony Stark asking if they need Iron Man's help with the situation in Boston. But Steve wants to see if his team can handle it themselves 1st.In the aforementioned city Deadpool, Dr Voodoo, Human Torch, Quicksilver and Rogue are battling dog-like creatures, giant bees and dangerous plants. Synapse is trying to shut down the brains of the animals, but as she discovered last issue they don't have animal-type brains for her to affect.Just then a mother wanders across the battle scene pushing a pram. She's trying to get her baby to hospital. The mother shows some symptoms of turning vegetable, but her baby  has been completely transformed to green. Synapse carefully boosts the child's immune system until she throws off the symptoms. Then Rogue tells Quicksilver to take the pair to hospital. Before he leaves Pietro informs them that he has tracked the epicentre of the infection to Beacon Hill.Dr Voodoo finds a man killed by the infection. Johnny Storm remembers Reed Richards' frequent exhortations to learn some science. So he decides to fly the body to MIT to find someone who can maybe devise a cure, promising to keep in mental contact with Synapse. He finds a group of students (maybe they're at least post-grads).Quickie returns and says he's seen someone they should investigate. He rushes off again and the others try to follow. Team-leader Rogue worries about her troops not respecting her authority as they get bogged down in 'dogs'. And Synapse loses mental contact with the speedster.At the Massachusetts State House the Shredded Man arrives with some 'dogs' and some converted police. He demands that humanity abandon its cities and return to live with Nature. To prove his power he causes a giant vegetable to burst through the building, hanging with the birth sacs of the 'dogs' and spewing the infectious spores.Quicksilver races onto the scene and knocks him for 6. But the vegetation responds by nicking Pietro's neck, causing him to feel faint. The man who recently (last series) discovered he wasn't really a mutant is pushed into the belly of the plant.Now we go to 2087 where a man with a talking decal called Belle on his metal arm arrives in Boston. Apparently the rest of the Earth is like this. They wonder if this is related to the M-Pox. The man wants to blame it on the Kree, but Belle says they don't know what happened here either. They come across 1 of the 'dogs' which the man describes as a plant-animal with a pod instead of a brain.They shelter from a local increase of Terrigen Mist. The man finds an old newspaper from the period the rest of this issue is set in, describing Deadpool as 1 of the Avengers. The man refers to him as Wade and wonders if DP left a message in their dead drop.The man is Cable. He decides to leave off their fight with Stryfe and go back to 2016 to fix the problem the Avengers obviously couldn't.

Always shoot a swordsman
Last issue Cable came from the future to help the team stop the Shredded Man and his biological army from infesting the world. (Or rather he came back to stop them messing up.) That issue ended with the villain revealing to Synapse that he is her grandfather.We flashback 8 months to the results of the Terrigen bomb during the Infinity event, giving superpowers to humans worldwide who have the Inhuman gene. Ivan Guerrero helps his grandaughter Emily out of her cocoon. She has a brother who isn't ready to emerge. Ivan can communicate with plants. Emily detects electricity within animal brains.Now in Boston as the Shredded Man Ivan is out to purge the world of humans with a spore-borne pathogen (leaving only Inhumans) before humanity wrecks the planet. But Avenger Synapse won't let him.Meanwhile the rest of the team are fighting the villain's plant-born doglike and batlike creatures. Cable as usual uses a big gun, but Deadpool is out of ammo. So he gets Rogue to launch him in a fastball special so he can slice and dice a giant bat. Quicksilver goes to get more bullets, and returns immediately with the contents of a gun shop, including the counter and salesman. Who is honoured to join DP in mowing down more creatures.Human Torch isn't with them because he's at MIT where he's got some guys to synthesise more of an antitoxin provided by Cable, and to create an antidote gun. But it's untested, so Johnny Storm does what he thinks Reed Richards would have done in a desperate situation like this - he tests it on himself.After this rigorous clinical trial Quicksilver races around town injecting infected victims. He sometimes has to return to MIT to reload with serum. But Dr Voodoo keeps searching for more victims, trying to keep them alive until Pietro can get to them.Suddenly Cable gets a psychic vision of Emily about to kill Ivan. He runs over there, guided by his AI Belle. Synapse tells herself that this Shredded Man is no longer the man she knew. But Cable tackles her, saying that if she kills him they won't be able to stop the infection and the spread of his mutated plants and plant-animals.Cable tells the SM that he's from 2087 where only Inhumans survive. But as well as an antidote he's brought back a 2nd drug that will remove Inhuman immunity. Ivan is willing to die for his cause, but Cable shoots Synapse with the drug. Emily says she'd rather die than live in the world her grandfather is creating. So Ivan saves both her and the world by willing everything he created to self-destruct.But that includes the Shredded Man body. As it crumbles leaving his skeleton he says that he can grow another. And when he returns Emily will have forfeited his love.Cable promises to let Synapse tell the others about her grandfather in her own time. They all take a copter back to Uncanny Avengers HQ and Steve Rogers.Rogers refuses Deadpool's resignation again. He persuades Cable to stay with them by revealing that their secret mission is to get Prof X's brain back from Red Skull.In an epilogue out in space we see someone save a spaceship from some space creatures. The crew think he's a Spaceknight, but he reveals himself to be Hank Pym in the armour that is Ultron. And he/they are on their way home to Earth.

Don't do the crime
Deadpool remembers seeing Hawkeye kill Bruce Banner and get arrested for it (Civil War II #3). He now discusses what to do with Kate Bishop, the other Hawkeye, and then arranges a new identity for Clint Barton.Next he breaks into the Cellar to spring Clint. But not without being seen by at least 1 guard before he knocks him out. He's got a new passport and some money for Barton, and a boat waiting to take them away. But Clint turns him down. He'll take his chances in court (and The Accused 1-shot indicates that he half-believed he deserved to be convicted).Before Wade Wilson leaves Barton asks if he ever regrets any of the people he's killed. Wade answers yes, but it gets easier each time - ask the Punisher. Which at least makes Clint laugh. Then they shake hands and Deadpool makes his escape.Meanwhile 24 hours ago Captain America answered a summons from Medusa to New Attilan to hear Ulysses' latest prediction. The X-Men will go to war. Cable shouldn't be in this time, and he's doing something with some questionable company now without telling Cap.Steve Rogers and some armed police catch up with Nathan Summers about to board a private plane. Cap wants to know who's on the plane. Cable dismisses Ulysses' prophesy and refuses to answer Cap's question. If Cap doesn't trust him then he quits. Nathan enters the plane and Cap stops the cops from shooting.Inside we find Rogue, and learn that they intend to find a cure for the Terrigen poisoning that is affecting mutants. And their allies are Sebastian Shaw and the Toad. Shaw claims to know where the cure is.

The arrogants
Captain America has called together another mixed X-Men/Avengers Unity Squad to counter anti-mutant hysteria and investigate the mystery man who's wearing the Captain Krakoa costume and leading the new Mutant Liberation Front who have just stolen a nuclear weapon (and we know they've got it at the Orchis science centre in Empire State University).Deadpool watches Black Widow shooting targets (pumpkins) blindfolded with a sniper rifle. Quicksilver and Psylocke (Kwannon) discuss Rogue's idea that CapA stand down because if CapK kills *him* that would sink any hope of human/mutant rapprochement. But Rogue dashes up to say she's received a distress signal from Steve Rogers so they all head towards the source ...... which is the burnt-out shell of the treehouse that was the mutant nation of Krakoa's embassy in New York. Captain America is giving a speech to an assembled crowd and admits that he sent a false distress call to show them how the mutant/human Unity Squad comes immediately to his aid. They're all there now including Penance (Monet St Croix). Daily Bugle owner/reporter Ben Urich is there taking notes. Some in the crowd vociferously believe that mutants murderously attacked Washington DC (that was CapK in FCBD (2023) Uncanny Avengers) and also murdered human ambassadors at their Hellfire Gala (that was Orchis in the 1-shot). CapA tells them he doubts that mutants were responsible for the attacks and he believes that CapK isn't Cyclops (who wore the uniform previously) and isn't even a mutant. An old woman throws a cup of malt at him but he restrains Deadpool and continues to suggest that some group is promoting hate and division in the country.At Orchis HQ Feilong isn't happy with CapA's speech and asks Dr Stasis and MODOK why their agent CapK isn't doing something about it. DrS has to admit that he's gone off-script by stealing a nuclear bomb, but he says it'll all work out when they get Cyclops or Prof X to put on trial.Steve Rogers reminds the crowd that he volunteered in WWII when America was attacked by enemy states, but he believes in Krakoa. A heckler says that muties stopped being Americans when they set up their own nation. Cap admits that he was sorry that they felt that they weren't safe in the US. Draping himself in the flag he tells them that America needs to hear the truth. He makes a big speech about people not being afraid each other and asks them to question anyone who tries to make them so, which seems to sway a lot of the crowd. And he finally casts doubt on Orchis.The old woman tells him she still hates the X-Men as she always did, but she apologises for throwing her drink over him and offers to pay for the dry-cleaning, which Cap declines. Ben Urich congratulates him and Steve says he expects to have a meeting set up for tonight which might interest the reporter. Which is a bit premature because he only now asks Rogue to help set the meeting up. Last issue Urich told him that the X-Men supposedly have a human witness to the murder of the ambassadors and he now asks Rogue to get the witness to come forward. She says she doesn't know anything about it because she wasn't there, but she'll see what she can do.Monet tells Cap that she and Quicksilver have a lead on the MLF, which is news to Pietro Maximoff. But the super-speedster carries her to the shopping mall she indicates. In the last 2 issues there was some friction between the pair and here Pietro still reacts badly to Monet's imperious ways as she tells him to steal some coats and sunglasses as a disguise and then accompany her into a perfumery. She finally relents and explains that when they fought the MLF she smelt an expensive perfume only available here ...... but she still wasn't ready to be immediately attacked by the Fenris twins. Holding hands to increase their shared power Andrea Von Strucker blasts a column holding up the ceiling. Monet has to use her super-strength to support it while Quicksilver moves all the civilians to safety and returns in time to speed-punch the duo before they can fire at her. He then 'borrows' some acrow props (and a hard hat) from a building site to shore the column up freeing Monet to threaten the twins. Pietro also separates them to decrease their power and beats up Andreas Von Strucker while Monet does the same to Andrea, asking them where the atomic bomb is. But the villains are too scared of their boss Captain Krakoa to tell.But then the temporary supports give way and Monet has to go back to holding the ceiling up, and Quicksilver lets the twins escape. He doesn't seem bothered and she realises that he deliberately kicked the supports away because he put his Avengers ID card on 1 of them to track them. He tells her that he also took *her* card and planted it on the other twin. Previously whenever Pietro carried her she told him to watch where he put his hands. But earlier this issue surprised him by moving his hand to a mildly amorous position. Now he kisses her and she slaps him, but with a smile and a compliment.Steve Rogers joins Ben Urich at the Bugle for the meeting he mentioned earlier. He says he still doesn't know who the witness is that the X-Men are protecting but they've agreed to meet here now. Then a voice tells them that it is *he* who is protecting the *X-Men*. The witness is Wilson Fisk, ex-Kingpin and ex-Mayor.

Unmasked
This series is part of the Fall Of X event where Orchis have driven most mutants from Earth at the latest Hellfire Gala and also massacred human ambassadors there blaming it on the mutants. Plus they unleashed someone in the Captain Krakoa uniform previously worn by Cyclops to carry out terrorist acts against humans with his new version of the Mutant Liberation Front, most of whom believe he *is* Cyke. Captain America organised a new Avengers Unity Squad including some of the remaining X-Men to show human/mutant cooperation, oppose the MLF and unmask CK. Along the way CK and the MLF went off-piste to steal a nuclear weapon and hide it in the Orchis Science Centre at Empire State University.Last issue Quicksilver and Penance (Monet St Croix) put trackers on the Fenris twins to find the MLF's base. And CA and reporter Ben Urich met the only living non-Orchis non-mutant witness to the Hellfire massacre - Wilson Fisk the Kingpin.This issue opens where Dr Stasis (a Mr Sinister clone working for Orchis) is giving a talk at a Science Fair at the OSC of ESU. But Ben Urich is in the audience and challenges Stasis' repeated claims that all humans at the Gala were dead before Orchis arrived. He says that he has a human witness to the massacre who tells it differently. Stasis exits the auditorium to prepare his speech for an address to the whole campus later that day, but Urich follows him. When they are alone Dr S warns him to keep quiet.We now see that the MLF HQ is at the abandoned Camp Lehigh (the army base where Steve Rogers was stationed while he fought as Captain America during WWII). Captain Krakoa tells his troops he's off to destroy the Orchis space station. On the way he gets a call from Dr Stasis asking why he stole a nuke. CK replies "Insurance". Dr S interprets it as meaning CK thinks he doesn't need Orchis. But he adds that Ben Urich has just been asking questions about him (not what we saw) and wonders if CK revealed his identity to any of the MLF. He suggests that it might be in both their interests if CK 'called on' the reporter. When the call's over CK suspects the leak came from Andrea Von Strucker (who he revealed his identity to (but not to us) when they had sex in a shower in #2).The Unity Squad parachute down to the MLF base and of course CA immediately recognises it. Quicksilver got here early and has already speed-reconnoitred the place. In the base Wildside's acute senses alert him to the invasion and he warns the others. But Black Widow already has a gun to his head and calls for him to surrender. He responds by using his mental power to make her relive traumatic events from her past. But she just laughs and shoots him. Penance asks him where the nuke is but he spits in her face so she threatens to use *her* mental power to dig it out of his head. However Psylocke (Kwannon) gets there 1st with her psychic knife, but it turns out he doesn't know.Blob (who really believes he's fighting on the right side) tries to attack them but CA and his shield (and his injured left arm cocooned by the armour shell of Winter Soldier/Bucky's cyborg limb) interpose themselves. He and Rogue try to persuade Fred Dukes that CK isn't who he says he is.The Fenris twins (Andrea and Andreas Von Strucker), their power as usual only working while they hold hands, blast away at Monet who survives by acrobatic skill. But she was only setting them up for Kwannon to leap in and slice their joined hands of with her 2 swords. Pietro Maximoff rushes in with bandages to staunch the bleeding and also completely wrap the villains up. He asks if Psylocke can telepathically suppress their pain. She says she *could* but ... Meanwhile Deadpool's only contribution to the fight is to pick up the severed hands and drop them in a waste bin.Blob seems now somewhat converted. He tells them that CK said he got the nuke for Dr Stasis and he has gone to use it against the Orchis base. But Rogue picks up on the Dr S reference and muses about the speech he's to give at ESU. CA says he's worked out who CK is. He sends Quicksilver and Rogue to ESU while he and the others will take the X-Men jet (which CK and the MLF have been using) to another problem site in New York. On the way Black Widow reports the Camp Lehigh situation to the authorities.Pietro runs and Rogue flies to ESU and they arrive in time to disrupt Dr Stasis' 2nd speech. Quicksilver searches the place at high speed and triggers the nuke to arise from under the stage. Stasis obviously didn't know about this and beats a hasty retreat along with the rest of the panicked crowd. Rogue wants to move the nuke to somewhere safe but QS has discovered that it's booby-trapped. He calls CA to tell him that they need CK to disarm it.In the Daily Bugle office Ben Urich is surveying the printer's proof of tomorrow's issue when CK bursts in through a wall and starts to strangle him. But CA bursts in shield-1st through a window to push his opponent out of the room and down to the roof of a lower floor. He takes time on the way to explain that to catch the foe by surprise he had Monet throw him at the building. He demands that CK tell him how to disarm the bomb. The baddie declines and boasts that no telepath will be able to pry the secret from his brain.CA hurls his shield as his other 4 team members arrive. But CK catches it and expertly spins it on a ricocheting path to take down Widow, Monet and Psylocke. Deadpool attacks with both guns blazing. He's also realised who's in the CK suit, and the villain admonishes him for taking his allegiance back to Rogers again. And his next throw of the shield slices DP in half (temporarily of course). CA's fists smash CK's helmet as he asks how the villain is still alive. And we see that he is the Hydra Steve Rogers/Captain America from an alternate reality (and from the Secret Empire event). He reminds our Cap that *he* was recently resurrected by the mutants of Krakoa (AXE Judgement Day #5) and he claims that humanity has now resurrected *him* to stop Cap from helping the mutants. And he blasts Cap in the face.

New Avengers
Orchis attacked the latest Hellfire Gala (in the 1-shot) and forced most mutants to leave Earth. Captain America asked some of the remaining mutants (Penance (Monet St Croix), Pyslocke (Kwannon) and Rogue) to join with some Avengers (himself and Quicksilver) plus Deadpool in the latest Avengers Unity Squad. Opposing them is the unidentified Captain Krakoa leading a new Mutant Liberation Front (Blob, Fenris (Andrea Von Strucker and Andreas Von Strucker) and Wildside) out to steal a nuclear weapon from a military base. At the end of last issue Captain K broke Captain A's left arm.Now CK stands over his fallen foe about to kill him. But a bullet strikes his armoured chest. And we see that it is fired from a sniper rifle wielded by Black Widow standing amidst fallen Orchis troops. (Apparently she's been tailing CA since Orchis tried to kill him in FCBD 2023: Avengers/X-Men.) CapA proposes to continue the fight 1-handed, but 1st he sends Pietro Maximoff to deal with more Orchis troops inside the base actually stealing the nuke. Q zooms off but not before giving Andreas Strucker a superspeed slap. Inside he proceeds to take down all the troopers. But 1 of them stops him with a gas bomb (they're all wearing breathing masks of course). And they drive away with the bomb towards their waiting plane.Outside Blob (who believes they're the good guys working for Cyclops inside the CK suit) faces Monet but tells her he doesn't want to hurt her. But CK does and he charges at her like a bull and sends her flying. He reminds Fred Dukes that she and the others are traitors to the mutant cause, and he orders Wildside to finish her off. The feral mutant leaps on her to obey. However frustrated Blob stamps the ground causing a mini-quake which accidentally(?) separates the 2. Deadpool attacks Captain Krakoa with pistols blazing but the enemy downs him with vines fired from his wrist.Then the 5 villains are beamed up into the X-Men's Blackbird plane that CK has appropriated. But Black Widow gives chase in an old SHIELD craft. However the combined Andrea & Andreas blast it out of the sky (BW ejects safely). CapA tells DP to track it via satellite. Kwannon has an Orchis trooper pinned and threatens to cut his throat with her swords unless he tells them where CapK has gone to. But the goon swallows a cyanide pill. And a psi-blocker in his head stops Monet from reading his mind before he dies.The team regroup in their Ellis Island base. Steve Rogers' Super-Soldier Serum is starting to heal his arm but Natasha Romanoff and Wade Wilson sheathe it in an old shell of Winter Soldier's robotic arm. Steve tries throwing his shield with it and it bounces off some objects to return to his hand as intended. But Rogue leads a delegation of the other team members to suggest that Cap step down as leader. The world sees Captain Krakoa as a mutant terrorist, and if he kills an Avenger then it will turn even more people against mutants. But Rogers reminds them that the US sent him to Europe to fight Nazis in WWII, and when he 'died' others were inspired to replace him. He dons civvies and heads off to a meeting with a contact.When he's gone Wade points out that the mutants have a history of losing fights like the 1st Mutant Massacre and Decimation. And now they want to sideline Captain America, the guy you can always bet on to win. He suggests they think again. But in the meantime he wonders what Orchis want a nuclear weapon for.Meanwhile in their orbital base The Bloom some of Orchis' top guys (Dr Stasis and MODOK) are wondering the same thing. MODOK reminds the other that they just wound Captain Krakoa up and let him go and now they can't control him. Stasis muses that CK nuking a US city *might* be a good move. Personally he never liked Cincinnati.In a decommissioned US military base somewhere the MLF are 'tucking in' to some ready meals. CapK wants them all to get a good night's sleep ready for the morning. We skip to Blob snoring while Wildside's earplugs don't help. Andreas is reading while Andrea has a shower. But CK walks into the shower with her and takes off his mask. She immediately recognises him and she melts into his arms as he sheds the rest of his armour. He warns her not to tell anyone of his identity, and then they make love while Andreas fumes outside.Meanwhile Steve Rogers meets with Ben Urich atop the Daily Bugle building. Ben tells Steve he owes him from the time Cap helped him take down Kingpin (at the end of the Born Again story in Daredevil vol 1 #227-231). Steve tells Ben that the man in the CK suit isn't Cyclops and he's working for Orchis. Ben says he needs proof before he goes into print with the story. But he says he's heard that there were survivors of the human ambassadors supposedly murdered by mutants at the Gala, and that the mutants have 1 of them. Steve leaps off to investigate (looking more like Spider-Man than CapA).In the last scene of the issue we learn that Orchis has the stolen nuke in their science centre at Empire State University.

Truth & justice
We begin with a recent flashback as Dr Stasis (a clone of Mr Sinister) and MODOK revive someone in a life-support container. They keep the lights off because the subject's eyes haven't adjusted yet. Their organisation Orchis needs him for a special role that they don't want traced back to them. The duo introduce themselves and inform him that the world has gotten worse while he's been 'away'. The mutants have their own nation and Orchis have taken over from the defunct SHIELD to oppose them on behalf of humanity. They have a plan to wipe the mutant nation out and they want him to be a part of it. MODOK asks him to blink twice for yes. But instead he responds by smashing his way out of the container, which they take as agreement. MODOK suggest he needs a uniform, and Stasis knows the 1 to use.This is obviously the char who broke into the mutants' New York 'treehouse' embassy in FCBD (2023) Uncanny X-Men, almost killed Cyclops and stole the Captain Krakoa suit that Cyke (and some other X-Men) had used recently. He then wore it to wipe out a Senate Intelligence Committee in the Capitol.Now Ben Urich owner of the Daily Bugle scans the latest issue reporting on that attack and the events at the mutants' latest Hellfire Gala. He reviews recent mutant history:- They formed their nation (on the island Krakoa). They gave mankind new medicines which have turned out to be poisonous (Ben thinks Orchis may be responsible (as we readers know to be true)). He knows that Cyclops represented them as Captain Krakoa but again suspects that the CK who committed the Washington atrocity wasn't him. The mutants on Krakoa seem to have vanished, and Orchis is rounding up other mutants and deporting them to mutant-occupied Mars, but Urich understands there's a mutant civil war going on there. He muses that he's got an inside source keeping him updated.Later we see the deportations going on in an Orchis Filtration Centre in Kansas City. As Orchis troops herd the refugees in the rain into a giant space shuttle a hooded female figure stops the line and tells them to get ready to run. But not to return to their homes. She slashes the throat of the troop leader with a sword and then uncloaks as Psylocke/Kwannon of the X-Men before killing more of the troops with both her swords. Since the fall of Krakoa the originally-Hand ninja assassin has been evading Orchis' Iron Sentinel robots as she staged hit & run strikes on the enemy.The refugees *want* to obey her and escape but they can't get through the surrounding chain link fence. Until Psyclocke's partner Penance/Monet St Croix rips through it. Neither of them expect to live long doing this but they'll go down wreaking as much vengeance as they can for their fellow mutants.Suddenly in the midst of the battle Psylocke senses someone else behind her and whirls with a sword to strike Captain America's invulnerable shield. She immediately believes Cap is here on the side of the oppressors and asks if the rest of the Avengers are with him. But he throws the shield past her to take down (non-lethally) some more Orchis troops and says he's here to help them fight fascism. It took him a while to catch up with them, but if he can do it so can Orchis. So he he asks them to join his new version of the Avengers Unity Squad (that previously fostered Avengers/X-Men cooperation). Monet's limited mind-reading in her Penance form suggests that he's telling the truth but Kwannon doesn't think Cap will approve of her lethal methods.Another suddenly they're joined by Quicksilver who's zoomed back from delivering the escapees to the Canadian border. And Deadpool also appears claiming to have set charges to blow the place up. Penance and Psylocke mentally agree to join Cap's team, at least until they prove not willing to go as far as necessary. As giant Iron Sentinels arrive and the base starts to burn our heroes take their leave. Pietro Maximoff races off to scout out more Orchis bases. The others get in a helicopter which Wade Wilson pilots away. On the way out Deadpool contacts the team's other member Rogue (she teamed up with Cap in the FCBD issue) who's flying above Orchis' mutant gulag in New York and discovers she can't get closer than 200 metres without detection.Now we've met the team it's time to meet their opposite numbers. Captain Krakoa has commandeered the X-Men's Thunderbird jet and is flying over Krakoa with Blob and Wildside. He's pretending to be Cyclops and promising Blob revenge. Wildside just wants to kill people. He leaves them and leaps down to the island. The Stark Sentinels let him through because he's on their side, but CK has told the others that he's made himself invisible to them. He smashes through the floor of the Quiet Council's meeting chamber to get to the Pit prison beneath it. There he finds and recruits the Fenris twins, Baron Strucker's mutant children Andrea Von Strucker and Andreas Von Strucker.Steve Rogers and Wade Wilson meet up in the Grand Central underground station. Cap had given DP a place in a previous Unity Squad, and felt guilty over how Wilson had been duped by his Nazi duplicate in the Secret Empire event which is why he's brought him back for this run. They are joined by Kwannon and Monet equally in civilian guise (Kwannon has her swords in a guitar case). They sneak into the old Morlock tunnels under Manhattan where they meet Tony Stark and Hazel Kendal. Stark is working on defeating the Iron/Stark Sentinels that Orchis have built using his technology which he no longer owns. And 'Hazel' is really White Queen/Emma Frost in disguise (she used this alias before when she tangled with Iron Man in a flashback tale in #6 of the current IM series). Psylocke has brought the Squad here to meet the remains of the X-Men:- ShadowKat (Kate Pryde), Rasputin IV and Ms. Marvel.But then Quicksilver speeds in and takes the members of the Squad away individually. We learn that he's taking them to Captain Krakoa's next target an atomic weapons site where Rogue already is. And CK's got his new team with him who now name themselves the new Mutant Liberation Front. So it's split up and fight time. Exhausted Pietro sits it out. Psylocke mentally offers Wildside 1 chance to surrender which he declines. Penance takes on Krakoa himself but gets slapped down. The Fenris twins join hands to amplify their power and blast a hole straight through Deadpool, through which we see Rogue grappling with Blob while trying to convince him he's fighting for the wrong side. CapA's shield takes out Wildside and then rebounds to hit CapK. The 2 Captains then face off. As they close Steve realises that under the strength-amplifying battles suit CapK is already superstrong. His opponent comments on the predictability of CapA's tactics and then seems to break his shield-arm.

Unmasked
Captain America reformed the human/mutant Avengers Unity Squad to combat Orchis' anti-mutant campaign. In particular they opposed the new Mutant Liberation Front headed by Captain Krakoa who were designed to ramp up anti-mutant prejudice. Cap also worked with the Daily Bugle's Ben Urich to expose Orchis' actions. The MLF stole a nuclear weapon and hid it on the Empire State University campus. The Squad tracked them down and defeated them but the bomb was armed and couldn't be disarmed without CK. CK wasn't there but they tracked *him* to the Bugle where he went to kill Urich. There he was unmasked as the Hydra Steve Rogers from an alternate reality who replaced our guy in the lead-up to the Secret Empire event.This issue starts with a flashback to evil Steve meeting with Dr Stasis after his revival/resurrection. He demands to be known as Grant Rogers (using his middle name) because our Steve has 'tainted' the name. GR readily agrees to join Dr S's anti-mutant war but insists on doing it his own way, starting with taking over the CK armour from Cyclops (which he did in the Uncanny Avengers Free Comic Book Day issue).Last issue 'Captain Krakoa' easily defeated the Squad at the Daily Bugle, apart from being unmasked. Now on the roof of the Bugle building he stands over the fallen Captain America (his broken left arm sheathed in the shell of Winter Soldier's cybernetic arm) and prepares to kill him with a big gun that his armour generates. But last issue CK used CA's shield to cut Deadpool's body in half, and now the fallen top half clamps it's teeth into the villain's ankle causing him to misaim.He's about to shoot them both when Psylocke (Kwannon) rejoins the fight. She chops through the gun with her (psychic?) katana, and mentally tells the others that they must disable the Forge-built CK battle suit (referring to him as Stevil, which seems to catch on). His strength enhanced by the armour and his super-soldier serum, he bats her away into Black Widow taking them both off the roof. That leaves Penance (Monet St Croix) to start ripping the back of his armour to shreds, until he back-headbutts her nose. Then he retrieves Cap's shield, wedged into the wall above DP's bottom half, and uses it to break the floor and drop her into an office below.But now CA is on his feet and scoops up DP's top half (and uses it as a shield against another blast from CK). Wade Wilson tells Steve to throw him at the foe so that he can bite him on the head. Cap then takes his shield from CK, breaking *his* right arm in the process.During all this Rogue has been back at ESU where techies have been trying to disarm the nuclear bomb but they only have 1 minute left. Now, as Quicksilver zooms in there with a wounded Widow (if nothing else she seems to have Monet's nosebleed), she contacts Steve to say that the off-button is controlled by a retinal scanner that needs CK's eye to function. CK offers to stop it but CA says his eye will do as well. But the telepaths Kwannon and Monet return to warn him that it's a trap and the retinal scanner will kill him. And they both high-kick CK into submission.Cap reluctantly asks Rogue to fly the bomb into space where it can detonate safely, knowing that she probably won't survive. But Rogue is already on her way, but not to space because it would endanger the International Space Station overhead. She says she's heading for Area 51. Everybody at the Bugle realises her sacrifice, including Ben Urich and the Kingpin. DP begs Steve to do something (and Grant suggests that Wade is in love with her but has never had the courage to tell her, but Penance and Psylocke stamp on his face to shut him up). Cap calls the authorities for help and to warn them about the nuclear detonation ...... but Quicksilver whooshes past to take DP-top to the site. En route he tells him that he won't be able to get Rogue away in time so he'll leave Wade there to save her with a share of his healing factor. Rogue lands and throws the bomb as far away as she can. But she's still turned into a skeleton when it goes off. However skeletonised Wilson is also there and their hands are joined. Pietro Maximoff sees the mushroom cloud from some distance away, but the skeleton pair have a ringside seat as their bodies reform. And Wade asks Anna Marie what she sees in her husband Gambit.A newspaper article by Ben Urich is a 'voiceover' for that last bit and some transitional scenes. He describes how the Unity Squad prevented the stolen nuclear bomb from killing anyone. We see him, Cap, Kwannon and Monet standing over the unconscious body of Captain Krakoa as his voice tells how CK tried to silence him but the Squad stopped him and unmasked him as the Hydra CA, somehow resurrected by Orchis. He will stand trial as Grant Rogers and many people are asking questions about Orchis.Wilson Fisk, ex-Mayor and ex-Kingpin Of Crime, as come forward as a human who witnessed Orchis' attack on mutants and murder of the human attendees at the Hellfire Gala. His mutant wife Typhoid Mary is among the missing, possibly dead, and Ben trusts his word in this situation. This is said over a panel of a press conference given by Fisk and Blob, an innocent MLF member who was duped into believing CK was Cyclops and that they were doing good.We see the burned remains of the tree that was the Krakoan embassy in New York as Urich continues to say that the X-Men were framed (for the Gala deaths, CK/MLF's actions, giving humans poisoned medicine and other stuff), but among the upcoming trials will be 1 for their leader Cyclops (which will hopefully exonerate him).Now we take a break to read a missive from Dr Stasis to Orchis personnel which puts the opposite view. Cyclops' trial will be held in Paris, France despite Orchis asking for Paris, Texas where they have the death penalty, but he hopes to influence the court to go that far. He expects the few mutants remaining on Earth to try to rescue him but Orchis will be ready for that (and they can add more mutants to the execution count). Meanwhile they'll continue their anti-mutant propaganda. And with the mutants out of the way they can turn their attention to their allies like the Avengers and the Fantastic Four. He advises his people to keep up the good work, and then into the following phase where they makes sure all human carriers of the X-gene won't reproduce.Now Urich's article continues as the Unity Squad weeks later watch from a rooftop as a courthouse sets Grant Rogers free to the accompaniment of a clash between his supporters and his detractors. Among the police keeping order is at least 1 member of the Secret Empire. Ben calls it a perversion of justice, and promises to keep telling his readers the truth.Stevil gives a speech to the masses saying that humans will rise up to overthrow the domination of mutants and their like, and in his dream the mutants will be at peace too. But we see his dream as mutants and the FF being led away in chains and power dampeners to a mass grave. He says the mutants profess to be different and have their own laws, and they can have that on the planet Mars that they have terraformed and renamed Arakko. He reminds his audience that the mutants can resurrect each other. He asks if the US flag protected humans against the mutants, and answers no. He blames the government and tears the flag apart, proclaiming his new identity Flag-Smasher who will stand for a united (non-mutant) humanity.(Now whole) Deadpool's response is to throw a takeaway cup of coffee at him. Rogue wonders why Steve isn't angry. He says he is but age has taught him patience. And he'll bet on the truth and friends like the Squad to win out in the end.

On Mojoworld Mojo is called before the executives of Mojoverse Inc to discuss the low ratings on his latest show. (Although the animated billboards outside all feature Mojo and his creations to apparent acclaim). It seems Mojo has been on the outs, and has only recently been brought back into the company on a trial basis.Mojo counters their complaint by pointing out that they mutilated his original concept in order to pack in as many flavour-of-the-month features as they could. Ignoring him, they now claim that his failure is due to not fitting in with the latest craze - endless stories that add more mysteries as time goes on to hide the fact that they never answer earlier questions.Mojo pitches his latest idea, Avengers of the Supernatural, and he's already kidnapped Blade, Dr Strange, Ghost Rider (Johnny Blaze), Manphibian, Man-Thing and Satana to star in it. His Body Shoppe are working on them. The board immediately want to add Wolverine, real Avengers and zombies, and set it in a High School. But he'll take responsibility for any failure - which will be his last.The next bit of the issue is overlaid with Mojo's narration as if it is part of his pitch for what should happen.The Unity Squad are relaxing in Avengers Mansion. Rogue and Wasp are sunbathing by the pool exchanging gossip while Havok dive-bombs in. The subject of their talk is Scarlet Witch and Wonder Man. Simon Williams tries to get Wanda to accept his love for her, but the Witch still doesn't think it a good idea for them to be a couple. Captain America and Sunfire are playing pool while Thor and Wolverine have a drinking match and a fight.These last 4 are suddenly attacked by Ghost Rider spouting oaths of vengeance. He slaps a slaver strip on Thor's brow, which immediately spirits the Thunder God away. Then he drags Wolverine outside with his chain and dumps him on the poolside 3. By this time the executives have already got bored with GR's vengeance talk, and Mojo promises to edit most of it out later. So it's already clear that Mojo, executives and us are seeing what is happening. With the enslaved Avengers of the Supernatural capturing and enslaving the Unity Avengers.Cap and Sunfire have found time to get into costume before following the action outside. But only to see the other 5 AotS arriving, with Dr Strange announcing their group name. Satana steals part of Sunfire's soul, but Cap takes down Blade and Manphibian with his shield. Until Dr Strange assaults him with nightmares. Wolverine is fighting Ghost Rider, with Wasp kibitzing.Recovered Blade dodges the cosmic blast Rogue 'borrows' from Havok, and uses his bat form to enslave them both. Man-Thing sneaks up and his tendrils put slave strips on Jan and Logan. Strange tells Cap that his team are tired of the Avengers protecting humans while ignoring the plight of innocent monsters.Simon and Wanda at last join the fight, and Scarlet Witch ensnares Dr Strange. But Satana slaves them both. The whole Supernatural team surrounds Steve Rogers until Stephen Strange does the honours for him.Despite the preceding events being supposedly scripted and recorded, we only now get to Mojo's new TV show Martian Transylvania Super Hero Mutant Monster Hunter High School. And Simon Williams is the (enslaved) scriptwriter.Steve Rogers and Thor are football jocks and Jan and Wanda are cheerleaders. Steve and Wanda have just broken up, and Thor's suspicious about Jan who's paying too much attention to Alex Summers. Alex, Logan, Rogue and Shiro are leather-clad outsiders.The chief executive interrupts Mojo's direction to demand that Ghost Rider turn evil. And Wanda, who loves him, will have to kill him. Mojo objects that they haven't even got as far as showing Wanda and Johnny's relationship yet.Meanwhile Wanda goes to the library, which Stephen Strange likes to call his sanctum sanctorum. There he is running a roleplaying game with Blade, Manphibian and Satana. Man-Thing is in a corner as a potted plant. Wanda asks about Johnny Blaze. Stephen  warns her not to fall in love with him - he's possessed by a demon. Unfortunately it's too late for that advice.Wanda runs out and meets Johnny. They've been seeing each other for a while, and she tells him she's pregnant. Johnny is shocked, because of the demon that would result in the mixing of their powers.But this isn't in the script. And neither is Blaze turning into Ghost Rider. Who really is worried about what their child would be. And he rides off on a vengeance spree.Meanwhile the other characters have reverted to their costumed selves and recover from their slave state. Wanda attacks Mojo and tells him that his meddling has made the Spirit of Vengeance take over Johnny Blaze completely. The heroes are about to leave Mojoworld to its fate, but Mojo persuades them to stay and save the innocent inhabitants. (And he can film it.)Ghost Rider flies his flaming motorbike up to the artificial moon that looks down on the studio. His penance stare makes the Mojoworlders writhe with guilt. And their fear ignites Man-Thing. Dr Strange says their only chance is for Satana to tempt(?) the Spirit of Vengeance out of Johnny Blaze. She agrees to do it, even though she fears being stuck as Ghost Rider if Johnny won't take the Spirit back afterwards.Mojo's commentary correctly predicts that the plan won't work, but as usual the heroes will prevail anyway. The board aren't worried if Mojoworld gets destroyed - they make most of their money from multiversal syndication rights. And anyway they're insured.The heroes attack Ghost Rider en masse, but soon leave it to Thor to handle the now giant-size Ghost Rider. Then Sunfire drops Satana on GR, but she fails her appointed task. Then Man-Thing tries to quench the fear at its source. But fails too.Scarlet Witch now confronts him, but only as a distraction while Rogue uses her power to do what Satana couldn't - suck the Spirit of Vengeance out of Johnny Blaze. The Spirit immediately tries to control her, and she begs Blaze to take it back. After a moments hesitation he does so, but now it's back under his control.Dr Strange takes the heroes back to Avengers Mansion. Leaving the executives to argue over whether Mojo's program was any good or not.

The split opening page shows 2 similar scenes. In the present day Steve Rogers is leading a small team consisting of Dr Voodoo, Quicksilver and a new character with a green streak in his hair. In the past Captain America is accompanied by the same new character, Whizzer and another guy who we will learn has a connection to DrV.That past is 1947 and an army Major enters a Manhattan club called The Bar With No Doors that caters strictly to magicians. He used to be known as Dakor the Detective Magician, but now he hunts ex-Nazi mages. He's here to recruit people for a new team, the Department of the Uncanny, for a special mission. The Irish guy with the green streak is Declan Dane, the Emerald Warlock. The other guy from the splash page is Andre Gastrade, the Ghost Dancer, from the Caribbean. And the 3rd person at the bar is Agatha Harkness (much younger than we've ever seen her before).The mission Alan Dakor wants them for is to capture Hilda Von Hate, a witch who used to be in the SS. Dakor saw her escape through a dimensional fissure in 1945, but Gastrade has located her ruling the Caribbean island of Tani where she's turned the inhabitants into something like zombies.3 hours later all 4 of them are on a plane with Captain America, Whizzer and some US troops. To his consternation Cap learns that the mages know he's really Jeff Mace, the 3rd man to wear the uniform. And Ghost Dancer gives Robert Frank/Whizzer some hints about his future.This section ends with a 2-page spread showing the gang fighting Hilda and her zombies.Now we see a much older Andre Gastrade who's retired from the magic business since Jericho Drumm became Brother/Dr Voodoo. He's now a married fruit farmer. But his visitor Declan Dane hasn't aged a bit (and claims to have lived for centuries). An Avengers quinjet arrives carrying Dr Voodoo, Quicksilver and Steve Rogers. Declan greets Steve as Captain America, but Rogers says someone else has that job now.We learn that the Dept of the Uncanny killed Von Hate in 1947, and her zombie army was cured. But recently the 'walker sickness' has reappeared in descendants of the originals scattered all over the world, and it's infectious. We see the other members of the Unity Squad (Deadpool, Human Torch, Rogue and Synapse) fighting individual outbreaks. But Ghost Dancer thinks the root of the problem is on Tani.The combined bunch of heroes fly to Tani, now a holiday resort owned by the St Croix hotel chain, where the inhabitants are now all walkers. Pietro rounds them up, Steve knocks them down and Jericho casts a containment spell. Andre and Declan head into the hotel ballroom where they sense Hilda Von Hate. Their previous experience against her gives them the best chance of defeating her.But it's not Hilda. It's a bat-like demon called Hatred who has gone by many other names in the past. Von Hate used her power, and now the demon has used the dimensional fissure to reach Earth and reactivate the walkers.Outside Dr Voodoo's spell is weakening. But inside Ghost Dancer and Emerald Warlock defeat the demon and absorb her energy. They tell the others that their magics are so different that the energy can't recombine to become effective again. Jericho Drumm agrees, and the Avengers leave.Declan stays for a drink with Andre. But then kills him to absorb all the power of Hatred. Before he dies Ghost Dancer realises that the Warlock was always evil.And we see that Emerald Warlock intends to use that power against Scarlet Witch.
