However, the Avengers has S.H.I.E.L.D. and their field commander is General Thunderbolt Ross aka the Red Hulk. He has already captured and tortured Cap's allies Silhouette, War Machine (Dirty Harry) and Nitro. However, this is the General is very good a hunting his enemies and his alter-ego the Red Hulk is even better as SMASHING them.

Falcon leads a deadly stealth sky assault fully armed with both assault rifles and an battalion of birds of prey at his command. That is until an incoming Red Hulk drops from the Hellicarrier and proceeds to de-wing the flying Avenger it forces Cap and Widow to use ground to air missile with one chance to take out the red behemoth.

On the SHIELD Hellicarrier, the imprisoned Dirty Harry/War Machine is a man of a few words and with a few choice expletives and a nod to the battered and barely conscious Nitro they both know how to end the threat of Red Hulk and this unit of SHIELD. They take out the agents on board, weaponize the Hellicarrier, set detonators and fly it directly at the Hulk. Now if Nitro can revive the unconscious Silhouette in time to teleport the trio, if not it's plan B and Nitro explodes himself and they all go boom! Too bad Silhouette doesn't trust Nitro and Nitro is a coward. It's time for Dirty Harry to take charge as only he can and sacrifices to be made! NEXT: NO MORE AVENGERS!
