== Plot ==
The Avengers are watching a special event in Wakanda presented by its king T’Challa, whom the Avengers know as the Black Panther. Meanwhile, in Stark Industries, Amadeus and Gwen are testing Hulkbuster versions of their armors, which they will find very useful in their battles with more powerful villains, such as the Hulk’s adversaries. Back at Wakanda, the event goes on until it is interrupted by an attack by Carnage Strucker (who survived the New Avengers’ battle with the Carnage symbiotes in Roxxon), who has released the strongest of the Vault’s inmates and infected them with fragments of Venom and Carnage symbiotes.
Unable to contact Thor and Spider-Man (who are likewise occupied with a symbiote infection in New York), Captain America, Black Widow, Falcon and Hawkeye escort T’Challa to the base so that he can don his Black Panther armor while Iron Man (armed with the Hulkbuster Armor), Hulk, Ant-Man, She-Hulk and Captain Marvel hold back the monsters and the others escort the citizens to safety. Among the symbiote monsters, including Venom and Carnage, the heroes are confronted by a new different species: a red and yellow offspring dubbing itself Scream, which is capable to drive the others, even Strucker, berserk with its voice. The symbiote is shown to be completely controlled by its host, who is revealed to be another criminal of Stark’s past: Whitney Frost, who was once the terrorist Madame Masque and is now known as Screaming Queen.
Back in the Triskelion, Amadeus and Gwen answer a distress call by one of Stark’s employees who alerts them of of the presence of symbiotes in Wakanda. Armed with the Iron Spider and Iron Phoenix armors and followed by Rescue and War Machine, they make it there as they hack the Veronica Satellite, ordering it to deploy the Hulkbuster armors for the Avengers (with exception of Hulk and She-Hulk, who have no need of armors). The armors arrive in the battlefield and attach to the Avengers, who manage to defeat most of the Symbiotes, although Screaming Queen makes her escape. As the Avengers work on a strategy to combat the symbiotes, Stark tells them he once had businesses with Frost until the Mandarin’s forces attacked her industries with his technology, eventually making her deduce he cannot be trusted and has been planning to exact revenge on him for years. The Avengers are eventually alerted that Screaming Queen has managed to manipulate the symbiotes into fighting each other, tricking them into merging with each other to become a more powerful entity, which she dubs the Ultimate Carnage.
As the Avengers work to keep the giant symbiote from reaching the village where the citizens and tourists are sheltered in, Black Panther and Ant-Man journey inside the creature in order to reach the heart of the symbiote and destroy it. Stark, Amadeus and Gwen confront Frost, who absorbs portions of both Venom and Carnage to become more powerful and reveals she is using a new HYDRA device which will allow her to get control over her Scream symbiote. After a long fight, Gwen manages to destroy the device, causing Frost to lose control over the organism and leaving Ultimate Carnage vulnerable. Black Panther and Ant-Man successfully reach and destroy the heart of the symbiote with the Anti-Venom serum, curing the other infected villains, including Frost, except Strucker (whose heart is connected with the symbiote in him), who escapes. As Frost is taken to prison, Black Panther thanks the Avengers for helping him save his people. Deciding that other threats may be too intense for him to handle himself, the Avengers decide to invite Panther to join their team, which Panther is thankful to accept.

* The Hulkbuster Iron Spider armor is shown to have been upgraded sometime after its first use in the Ultimate Spider-Man: Web Warriors episode Rampaging Rhino.
