Marvel's Avengers Assemble

The Avengers have fallen.

Through the genius of my intellect and well-calculated plans,

I have subdued the great Black Widow,

Falcon, Hawkeye, Captain America, Hulk, and Thor.

And with this device I'm calling the Static Expander,

I will do away with them forever!

So, what leads you to believe, Black Panther,

one single man can stand against my new and powerful Cabal?

For a man of supposed intellect, you have much to learn, Leader.

One person can always make a difference.

Also, you talk too much.

I'll try to be less wordy.

Cabal, destroy him.

He has spirit. I'll crush it out of him.

Hmm.

Quit toying with him.

Enchantress, finish him.

Foolish. Absolutely foolish.

What could you hope to accomplish?

Just taking back the Vibranium you stole.

I gather your device will not work without it?

What? Stop him!

Going somewhere?

You underestimate the power of Arnim Zola.

I am stronger than you could possibly imagine.

You won't get past me.

I am not going past you.

- I am going through you. - What?

No! What do you think you're doing?

Aah!

I will easily transfer my consciousness to another body.

How do you expect to survive this?

You're going too fast!

Not if I do this.

You dare? This ridiculousness won't kill me.

No, but it will hurt.

Pepperoni and...

Wha...

That was awesome!

He managed to escape my grasp.

But you would not believe what he had the gall to...

Imbecile. No wonder Hydra always fails.

I'll retrieve our escaped Panther.

Send me. I'll bring back our prey.

And toy with him while I do it.

Black Panther is a wounded animal.

To catch a panther, we'll send our best hunter, Skurge.

To the hunt, with pleasure.

I cannot fight this battle alone.

My only chance is with a team.

Now comes the fun.

Here, kitty, kitty.

Need to buy myself some time.

You can't evade me forever, mortal.

Uh, is there anything else today, sir?

Yes. How much for your headphones?

No use hiding, Black Panther.

I can track you across galaxies, if need be.

And the hunt resumes.

A magnet?

My ax is enchanted Asgardian steel.

- It cannot be stifled by your science. - I was not aiming for the ax.

Ugh!

Did you think that you could get rid of me?

Accept your defeat!

It was useless to retreat here.

We have the Avengers.

Not all of them.

- Who, or what, is this? - His name is Vision.

Assessing Skurge in the Avengers Compound.

May I be of some assistance, Black Panther?

Most certainly, my friend.

Apologies for interrupting your sleep mode.

No apology needed.

My systems are updated and ready for a challenge.

You woke up your pet.

Then I'll wake mine!

Vision, you said something about wanting a challenge.

Look out!

This magnificent creature is an Asgardian dire wolf.

It'll make quick work of you, mortals.

It is indeed fierce.

However, so am I!

Huh?

Huh? You have intangibility?

Aaahh!

Vision, the Avengers have been captured.

Contact the others. Tell them it is time to assemble.

Connected.

Transmitting. Contact.

Captain Marvel, you are needed.

My first day off in months, and now I get the call.

Oh, well. What's a gal to do?

You've gotta be kidding me.

Eighty-two new messages?

Ms. Marvel, you are needed.

This is the greatest moment of my life.

Okay, say something cool.

Whoo-hoo!

Careful, Ant-Man. The laser beams are live. Stay sharp.

Oh, please. This is your standard security vault.

I'm the master of...

Did we just trip the alarm?

Or did you forget to put your phone on "silent"?

Wasp, you are needed.

It's about dang time.

- Who is it? What's going on? - Forget this security test.

- It's the Avengers! - Hey, wait.

They didn't call me.

Maybe I missed it. Do I have a signal right now?

Oh, it must be that I don't have a signal, and they couldn't...

- Scott. - Uh, yeah.

Getting tired, robot-man?

I could do this all day.

Oh, good. Looks like I didn't miss all the fun.

Another combatant. Welcome!

Thanks. Right back at ya.

Oop, got your nose!

Oh, oh, oh! Got your tail!

Hey, how's it going? Whoa!

Don't bark at me. Bad dog.

Sorry I'm late.

I had to take two buses and a subway transfer.

We need to get you a Sky-cycle, kid.

Wait. Is she even old enough for a driver's license?

You can't expect me to remember everyone's ages.

It took me forever just to learn your names.

Thank you, everyone, for your swift response.

Thank you! I can't believe you called me.

Speaking of which, what happened to my call?

What, you lose my number or something?

So, Vision, you're the one who called. What's this all about?

I didn't call for you.

He did.

Whoa. Must be bad if you're calling in reinforcements.

Indeed. I would prefer to handle things on my own.

But this will take all of us.

The Avengers have been captured by the Leader and a powerful new Cabal.

Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go bust 'em out.

Wait a minute. All of them got captured?

Thor? The Hulk?

If they got captured, then what chance do we have?

- Who's the new girl? - The Enchantress.

She is a member of the Leader's Cabal. And another Asgardian.

Poor Skurge.
