“FISHY”

Press Release: We are currently reevaluating the propriety of continuing to operate the Super Team® and appreciation your patience.

Real Talk: The team has succeeded in dismantling the cravenly covetous Control Group, the advertising agency responsible for assembling the Super Team® - but also responsible for creating most of their greatest enemies. So what will “Colonel Sanders” Al MacKenzie, “Tony the Tiger” Maneater, “Flo” Lady Punisher, “the Skinny Cow” Bova, “Poppin’ Fresh” Doughboy, and the “Energizer Bunny” Blackjack O'Hare do now? Perhaps their corporate sponsors will agree to continue their support if the Super Team® keeps up with the heroics... and with rogue company mascots with super powers still at large, the Control Group’s grim legacy needs to be addressed! Case in point: Starkist’s Charlie Tuna is actually a fish-man named Alphonse with ties to the Assassin’s Guild - and he’s on the loose somewhere in New Orleans. Bringing him in should appease the shareholders... so “Sorry, Charlie!” The Super Team® is coming for you! But what looks like a simple mission will get complicated, as there’s more than one thing that’s fishy in the Big Easy...

As vicious international gangs from South America permeate the United States’ porous border, Flag-Smasher has found a way to make them even more lethal! Using advanced technology stolen from the High Evolutionary, he has gene-spliced most of MS-13, making them into uncontrollable and feral anthropomorphic mutates! (“These are not people.

Hawkeye, Black Widow, Snake Eyes, and the others continue to explore Fury’s classified files on the secret and long history of both S.H.I.E.L.D. and HYDRA. And “long” is an understatement...

Before the sea swallowed Atlantis, an exile from that realm seized the throne of Valusia. He was Kull, once a pirate and soldier, then King during the first attempted coup of a major human nation by the Serpent Men and their human subordinates, the first men of HYDRA! The reptilian race had worked in the shadows since being rebuked by the First Host of the Celestials. Valusia was built over the remains of their seat of power during the Paleozoic Era. The snakes subtlety infiltrated the realm under the guise of the religious Serpent Cult, replacing key leaders with magically disguised serpents. Through espionage and terrorism, they would take Valusia back... unless Kull stopped them! The Pictish warrior Brule provided the King with his only piece of actionable intelligence - Serpent Men cannot utter the phrase “ka nama kaa lajerama” without dropping their disguise. But how would the two agents of humanity use that knowledge to overcome the serpentine usurpers?

* + - 4 YEAR AOM CONTINUITY ANNIVERSARY\*\*\*

“PUTTING THE BAND BACK TOGETHER” part three “PLANT YOUR FEET”

So, 4 years already, eh? Sure, some people get college degrees in that amount of time (enjoy the crippling debt, suckas). But me? I’m right back where I started - totally bro-ing out with my two bestest teammates, Juggernaut and Ghost! And let me tell you, this anniversary really makes me wax nostalgic for our first adventure in this continuity - saving Plantman... then smoking him! But the good thing about Plantman is that he just regrows! Watch in awe as we try to recruit him for the team... but to do so, we must venture into the spoookiest of places - Plantman’s Bio-Dome!! What madness lies within?

Meanwhile, my old frenemy Boba Fett is emboldened (probably by news that he’s getting a solo movie) and takes a bounty... on Starscream’s kid!

Includes Special Reprint from June 2014!

DEADPOOL & FORCE WORKS #0

“GET ZAPATA”

Whoa! Lots has changed since we last spoke, eh? Where were we before the big “Crisis of the CBR Forums” event? Oh yeah, yours truly just became a small business owner. Move over Blackwater, there’s new hotness in the private security sector and its name is Force Works! With the trademark acquired because U.S. Agent forgot to register it, I’m taking applications! It’s just me and the Zapata Brothers for now, safeguarding the world (or at least certain parties that live in the world) for modest fees! What could possibly go wrong?

So yeah, things go completely wrong. But prior to getting into all that, let me drop some knowledge! Did you know that certain plants, when smoked or ingested, can have radical, mind-altering effects on otherwise normal, law-abiding citizens? Oh yeah! They can totally turn you into a criminal overnight! And nobody knows this better than Blackheath, the photosynthesizin’ Plantman! Every bad guy on AOM’s available character list is out to get the not-so-jolly green man for what he can grow, but Force Works won’t let that happen! The first contender: a jacked red alien calling himself Axeman Bone! While that’s a wicked name for either a lead guitarist or a male pornstar, I can’t have him jeopardizing my profit margins! The team and I engage, and everything’s going heroically until I suffer the greatest betrayal I’ve ever experienced: The Zapatas turn on me! I CAN’T EVEN! What would Mil Máscaras think?

So now I’m down and out. Who can I call upon to in my hour of need? Axeman is a Hulk-level powerhouse, so how about my old frenemy Cain Marko – the Unstoppable Juggernaut! And to take out the mexi-mercs, here comes the gun-slingin’ simian, Hit-Monkey, and the intangible, ectoplasmic (at least I hope that’s ectoplasm) hacktivist, Ghost! Force Works is back, baby!

Theme Song: The Byrds - The Times They Are A-Changin'

For his actions and the failure to contain both Jason Bournes, who have escaped for their own separate reasons (with the evil one having gained intelligence on Miss America that could be vital to her defeat), Phil Coulson and his team find themselves grounded from SHIELD operations, stationed at Headquarters and assigned to separate rooms whilst they are interrogated. But time is running out and as Bourne disappears into hiding, Daisy Johnson realizes that the only way to stop him may be to escape from SHIELD and risk becoming a wanted fugitive in the process. But Coulson isn't exactly keen on the idea, and the rest of the team are keen not to risk any further trouble from SHIELD's higher-ups that could put their team's very existence in jeopardy. Luckily, someone else had the same idea as Daisy did. And that's Ethan Hunt - who realizes how important it is that the evil Bourne must be stopped by someone who knows him - or at least, knows his counterpart, who has returned to his life of solitude as quickly as he arrived. So rather than stay with SHIELD and behind bars - Daisy decides to hand in her badge. As soon as she leaves the Headquarters, she gets a phone-call from an old telephone booth.

Elektra has promised to bring the young Cái Chết Xanh back to his father at the Temple of Agaphaur near Ho Chi Minh City. But a young rebellious martial artist and a controlling father triggers painful memories within the leader of the Hand...

Not so long ago, the Natchios family was one of the richest in Greece - but their wealth didn’t insulate them from violence. Christina Natchios was gunned down on a private yacht in the Mediterranean. After that, Hugo insisted that his infant daughter train in martial arts - and got her the most expensive (and therefore best) trainers in the world. But for all her natural skill, she was reckless. By the time she was a teenager, she had surpassed all but one of her masters. Brash and egotistical as most are at that age, she fled, on her own, to discover new risks... and this led to her first encounter with the Hand. But the one mentor she had not yet eclipsed, Aristotelis Nevrakis the Greek Ninja, knew the fire that she was playing with and how badly she could be burned. Could he rein in the rebellious youth before she crossed a line that she could never return from? Find out why these memories trouble Elektra to this day!

Variant Brock's Shirtless Centerfold Cover by NIL VENDRELL

"That's So Savage, Part III"

This is it, the final showdown. Eddie Brock has been feuding with those green shape-shifting Skrulls since way back in issue #2. Now they settle the score in the Savage Land! Quick Recap: They wanted his symbiote to use as a weapon, he inadvertently led to the death of one of theirs (Ethan Edwards), they battled it out in Manhattan doing some Zach Snyder level destruction and presently they just totally wrecked Brock's prehistoric male-bonding zen jungle getaway with new bro Flash Thompson who also happens to be the freshly minted host of the Carnage symbiote. That leaves us with Venom & Carnage vs. Skrull Death Squad vs. Dinosaurs - Rumble in the Jungle!

But these Skrulls have new science and their deadly sonic blasters are tearing Eddie and Flash to shreds. Temporarily separating from its host, the Venom symbiote bonds with a T-Rex and nearly saves the day by devouring some green men but seeing it's battered and broken human host clinging to life, the symbiote retreats to help Brock flee the scene and abandon Flash Thompson to be abducted by the surviving Skrulls.

Eddie and Venom lay hidden in the brush, struggling to breathe the thick Savage Land oxygen. From there they watch the Skrull Battle Cruiser launch into orbit, off into the distance and out of sight, taking with it the only friend Eddie has in the world, who as Carnage also happens to be the greatest threat to his existence. Now maybe the Skrulls will leave him alone and Carnage is "safely" headed to a galaxy far, far away. You could say things worked out pretty well for Eddie in the end. Besides...friends, who needs 'em?

In the blackness of space aboard an alien cruiser, experiments are being performed on the symbiote and it's host as the Skrulls desperately try to separate them to no avail. Then.....the sound of metal clashing and alien cries for help as green blood paints the walls. They say that no one can hear you scream in space. They lie. To be continued...

EXCELSIOR #26

Written by BRIAN MICHAEL BENDIS

Plot by Exciter

Art by RAFAEL ALBUQUERQUE

“HE’S, LIKE, LITERALLY THANOS”

Thanos’ actions tore apart the universe, and his name is still cursed during the rebuilding process. Unfortunately, some rebuilders have learned that labeling their political opponents as “Thanos supporters” is an easy way to demonize them. When Colonel Jameson and the crew of the U.S.S. Excelsior visit the planet Kallu on behalf of the Local Group Treaty Organization, they find it deeply and perhaps hopelessly divided. One side says the other ruthlessly stamps out all opposing thought, as Thanos did. The other says that those who want to make Kallu powerful again adhere to Thanos’ beliefs. Can Hiro, Baymax, and the rest of the crew convince the planet that neither side actually supports Thanos? And when some real acolytes of the Mad Titan arrive, Warbird and Korg will risk everything to defeat them!

Meanwhile, the Excelsior’s sister ship the U.S.S. True Believer runs into trouble near a collapsing black hole and the only vessel close enough to offer support... is HYDRA’s R.O.H.S. Ultimatum!

Plot by EXCITER

* + - 4 YEAR AOM CONTINUITY ANNIVERSARY\*\*\*

“SEE YOU IN HELL”

Against all odds, Stephen Strange has transformed the 8th Circle of Hell into one of the hippest places in the universe to relocate! The Malebolge has become basically the Williamsburg, Brooklyn of Hell. But it’s not all long beards, $14 lattes, and a deep appreciate for vinyl records... it’s also a place where old friends (and enemies) can reunite. Following the neighborhood’s official ribbon cutting ceremony, the guests of honor get a rare respite and the opportunity to share a craft beer together with friends who have helped defend the multiverse for the past four years - Dr. Strange, Hulk, Namor, the Silver Surfer, Valkyrie, Cheetara, Queen Jarella, Wong, Giganto, Arkon the Magnificent, Stardust, Illidan Stormrage, the ghost of Egon Spengler, Mothra, Mary Poppins, and more. Plus, nobody expects the arrival of deceased friends Stabitty Jones and the Beyonder! But can the jealous Mephista rebuild the bridge she burned with her ex-husband - or will she invite the spirit of the slain Dormammu to disrupt the festivities?

"Magical Mystery Tour, Part II: NecroBROmance"

Isaiah Curwen, the zealot formerly known as the stabby sorcerer slayer Silver Dagger, and his Chthulu worshipping "church" have been on a Greenwich Village crime and curb sale spree, having recently kidnapped and converted unsuspecting nonbelievers to their cause (no Lovecraftian Kool Aid necessary) and also picked up some of Doc Strange's most prized mystical possessions he lost in his recent divorce (at unbelievable markdowns, talk about a crime!). However, Curwen and his misguided cult could never have imagined what would happen if they actually succeeded in summoning their lord and master with their latest acquisitions....(did they not read the Necronimocon?) SPOILER: Carnage, Destruction, Darkness and surprised worshipers literally consumed by their deity!

Meanwhile, Stephen Strange, the former surgeon, former Sorcerer Supreme and former resident of the Sanctum Sanctorum, wanders his city floating in and out of self-pity and the ethereal plane (his powers are mysteriously on tilt!?!) over his failed marriage, the loss of his home, his things, his man servant slash wingman, and his purpose in this or any dimension. Wake up and get over it already Doc, that black cloud over your head is an actual black cloud full of primordial monsters that just relocated to your borough!

Now Doctor Strange and his unstable magic must get out of his funk and face off against an outer-dimensional horror that makes Nightmare look like a daydream. And is that Wong....a member of Curwen's cult?

"I'm undercover, Stephen. I didn't have time to wait around for you to get your act together and I tired of rubbing that devil woman's (the former Mrs.) hoofed feet. Help me or get out of the way so I can send this degenerate demigod to meet his maker!"

Strange and Wong together again versus the Tentacled Terror of Chthulu'! Plus our hero receives a text from his attorney (she's a mean, green, litigating machine) that may just change his dire real estate portfolio and outlook on the future....

“TO BEE OR NOT TO BEE”

Children of the atom beware - Swarm has returned! The mad scientist whose body is composed entirely of bees is back! While before he needed the power-dampening young mutant Leech as a prisoner to enable his stings to remove mutant abilities, after four years Swarm has finally perfected the science! He no longer needs Leech - and his honeycombs are spread across the nation, ready to unleash an army of insects to cleanse America of mutants once and for all! Beast no longer holds a government position and can’t leverage the nation’s power against Swarm this time - but he can always leverage his teammates Wolverine, Storm, Colossus, Nightcrawler, Kitty Pryde, Rogue, and Jubilee - the Uncanny X-Men!

THE UNCANNY X-MEN #0

“INSECTICIDE” Prelude: “POWERLESS”

With the horrific hematic power to turn his own blood into a weapon, he called himself “Clot.” Then he was stung by a bee. With the explosive ability to make combustible copies of herself, she was called “Gangbang.” Then she was stung by a bee. With the capacity to completely collapse his body and travel through any pipe, he was known as “Drain-o.” Then he was stung by a bee. Somehow bee stings are causing mutants to lose their powers, and the problem has become serious enough that U.S. Secretary of Mutant Affairs Henry McCoy, better known as the big-brained, blue-furred Beast, is launching a formal investigation. Although Senator Robert Kelly denies knowledge, Beast believes the foremost proponent of the Sentinel Program has something to do with it. With Colossus and Kitty visiting Washington D.C., the three X-Men launch an unofficial investigation of their own. But what happens when they uncover the involvement of the human/Sentinel hybrid Bastion? And is it too late for the other Uncanny X-Men when Bastion’s new ally targets the X-Mansion? Enter the living hive… Swarm!

“THE ONLY MUTANT WITHOUT POWERS” Part Two of Five “CONFERENCE”

Theme Song: U2 - With Or Without You

Abstergo and Trask Industries start their rollout of mutant detainment camps on a country-wide scale, employing special sentinel services on every street corner to round up their would-be resistance. Desperate times call for desperate measures as Erik calls for a peace conference with Alex Summers in a bid to put aside their differences so the Brotherhood can deal with a world where everyone has powers. But Alex must determine why he doesn’t have any powers at all – and why, according to Trask/Abstergo records, on the entire planet, there is only one other person that doesn’t. His name is Dougie Jones, an ordinary Las Vegas insurance agent who’s wondering the same thing. At the conference, Esmee Cuckoo confronts her sisters on why she chose a different path to all of them for the first time, and Magik comes bearing news about some of their allies who have ended up on one of the camps. Alex decides to lead his team to rescue Dougie Jones from Abstergo’s Templar Agents – whilst Erik launches a ruthless raid of Trask’s prison complex to find the innocent children who have been locked up purely because they have powers. But the Sentinels are aware that he’s coming and storming the prison won’t be as easy as he thought.
