“Survival of the Fittest”
Heroes, villains, and antiheroes are not born. They are molded. Before she was Magik, she was just an innocent child. Before training her in the dark arts, Belasco has decreed that Illyana Rasputin must prove herself by surviving in the wilderness of Limbo for a month by herself. Armed with nothing but her bare hands, this small child must harden her heart and sharpen her mind if she is to overcome the extreme environment and ferocious monsters of Limbo. It's kill or be killed, eat or be eaten, in this heart-wrenching prequel to the exiting new Age of Marvels series!
 Fortune favors the merciless....

"GAMES OF HELL" Part 1
Two unwelcome visitors have disturbed the peace in Belasco's Limbo. One is Douglas Ramsay, a young mutant with the extraordinarily 'useful' power of understanding languages and who would rather not be in such a hellish place, even if there is a hot girl there as well. The other is a daemonic assassin, sent by another Hell Lord to kill Belasco's Darkchild, Illyana Rasputin. As Belasco investigates who sent the assassin, and Illyana tries to keep her new 'pet' secret from her master for his own safety, powerful forces are converging on Limbo with the intent of taking it from Belasco. There is no stopping the march to war.

"Games of Hell" Conclusion
The explosive first arc concludes here! With the Hell Lords' resistance crumbling, Belasco standing triumphant, and Mephisto hell-bent on either claiming or killing them, Illyana and Doug attempt the impossible, the invention of a spell that is neither black nor white. Only a weapon forged from such a spell can stop the advance of the Elder Gods now. With the energy left over from the Hell Lords' failed attempt at creating a super-weapon, and with the energy drawn from Illyana's own soul to complete their spell, Illyana and Doug will end this war here and now, or die trying.

N'astirh has already defeated the mighty S'ym, and none can pass his guard. In New York, the heroes prepare for a final assault on Belasco, but they are unaware of the true secret behind his newfound power. The Dark Lord has discovered the spell used by his former apprentice to forge her soul sword, and now has one of his own, a black blade so dark no light can reflect off of it. With this sword, Belasco is unstoppable, as is his Inferno.
