“RED DAWN OF JUSTICE”

In the aftermath of the HYDRA-COBRA WAR, HYDRA has redoubled its efforts to further destabilize regions already embedded in bitter conflict. Their affiliates in A.I.M. have been particularly successful in Russia...

Russia's annexation of the Crimean peninsula was seen by many as an illegal violation of the region's sovereignty and a seizure of Ukrainian territory. When A.I.M. stole the plans for Russia's famed Crimson Dynamo armor, it secretly mass produced the armors in Lictenbad, a neighboring nation it conquered, and sold them to pro-Ukrainian rebels within Crimea! Now the rebels have advanced mech suits and are threatening Moscow itself!

President Putin's first attempt to oust A.I.M. from the region sees the Winter Guard defeated and the Red Guardian slain... His only hope: call upon the greatest Russian heroes ever to form an All New, All Different Winter Guard!

Colossus! Black Widow! Omega Red! Will these three very different individuals, with very different ideas concerning what Russia should be, heed the call of their homeland's controversial leader and join veteran guardians Ursa Major and Darkstar in an effort to take A.I.M. down and protect Moscow? Or will they kill each other first?

“WE WILL BURY YOU”

Piotr "Colossus" Rasputin, Omega Red, Black Widow, and the other members of the All-New Winter Guard were successful. A.I.M. and their influence have been ousted from Crimea, but now the Crimson Dynamo mech-suits A.I.M. was supplying to the rebels are being confiscated by Vladimir Putin! Colossus wants them destroyed - he didn't remove those weapons from the hands of one killer just to deliver them to another. Putin, however, makes it clear that's not going to happen. This creates a conflict, and as the man of organic steel takes on his homeland's leader, Putin's top-scientists roll out "upgrades." It's Colossus versus the Ultimate Crimson Dynamo - Putin with hyper-advanced combat armor - and the fate of Russia hangs in the balance!

Meanwhile, the Russian super soldier once known as Arkady Rossovich exploits the conflict and appeals to members of the proletariat who favor neither Putin nor Rasputin yet long for the bygone days of their nation's glory. He's starting a new revolution. Get ready, because the Soviet Union is back... and Omega Red is its Premier!

Don't miss this sure to be controversial issue, featuring a cover homage to Captain America #1 (1941) with Colossus punching Putin!

Wrestlemania XXXII: Ursa Major versus “The Russian Bear” Ivan Koloff Variant Cover by DAVID AJA

“BLOC PARTY”

Piotr "Colossus" Rasputin narrowly defeated the Ultimate Crimson Dynamo, Vladimir Putin, in a highly televised battle for Russia's future. With faith in Putin shaken, at least two-thirds of the Federation Council vote to remove him from office. A new election must be held... and a reluctant Colossus, now widely considered the new face of Russian virility, upends anti-mutant bigotry and finds himself as the write-in favorite to become the Federation's next President! Unfortunately, Omega Red has other plans. His sole mission in life is to reestablish the dominance of the Soviet Union, but if he and his followers wish to succeed, then they cannot let the election happen...

Before Colossus can even think of his possible future in politics, he's going to have to rally the remnants of the all-new Winter Guard - Black Widow, Ursa Major, and Darkstar - to battle Omega Red's U.S.S.R. revolutionaries in the streets of St. Petersburg! It's a cold winter and the fate of the nation is on the line. Whoever wins will lead Russia into an all-new, all-different future - but will this new era be represented by an outstretched hand of organic steel... or a carbonadium tendril that strangles the world?
