Synopsis for the 1st Story

After the Silver Surfer’s battle with Rune, the Elder of the Universe Grandmaster follows the Infinity Gems into Rune’s universe. Seeking the Mind Gem he once wielded, he finds Sersi sitting on an asteroid. She senses him and makes a proposal.

Meanwhile, Loki amuses himself by pranking a young Amish couple in Pennsylvania then returns to Vahdala. Grandmaster appears and challenges Loki to a game: if he wins, he gets the Mind Gem; if Loki wins, he will reveal the location of the seventh Infinity Gem. Loki initially refuses but then changes his mind and agrees to back Ultraforce in a contest against the Avengers, backed by Grandmaster. Grandmaster captures the Avengers along with former members Iron Man, Starfox, and Thor, claims he has the Black Knight as a hostage, and tells them to kill Ultraforce. Loki captures Ultraforce and tells them the Avengers are invading their Earth.

Hardcase materializes in Washington, D.C. and sees Captain America—actually Loki in disguise—attacking the police. Hardcase follows him into an alley just after Loki teleports the real Captain America into his place. Hardcase attacks, and the two fight until Cap briefly talks him down. But when Hardcase sees out of place landmarks and that the police are actually alien creatures, he renews his assault. Cap fends him off then refuses to fight further and convinces Hardcase that Loki is the real enemy.

In an arena on an asteroid orbiting the Godwheel, Black Widow and Siren materialize in a mud wrestling ring as Crystal and Topaz are teleported into energy cages overhead. In front of a crowd of aliens, an announcer pits the two Avengers against the other two. When Black Widow swiftly defeats Siren, Topaz breaks out of her cage and lays the Widow out. Realizing they are playing tag-team wrestling, Black Widow fires her gauntlet at Crystal’s cage, freeing her. Crystal then uses her powers to immobilize Topaz and Siren, and the announcer declares the Avengers the winners.

In the frozen realm of Hathor on the Godwheel, Jimmy Ruiz slides down a mountainside, naked except for his underwear. Loki appears and informs him he and Iron Man must find their armors before they freeze to death. Ruiz spots Tony Stark, also stripped down to underwear, and uses his Ultra powers to blast him. Stark dodges it, and Ruiz chases him until he finds the Prototype armor. Stark puts it on then overpowers Ruiz, who flees. Ruiz finds and dons the Iron Man armor then blasts Stark, shredding the Prototype armor. But, doing so drains the Iron Man armor’s energy and shuts it down, immobilizing Ruiz.

In a lush meadow near a waterfall, Contrary briefly stuns Starfox with her sensory manipulation powers, but he retaliates with his pleasure-stimulating abilities. Their powers interact and draw them together into a kiss.

Ghoul and Vision face off in a necropolis, and Vision evades Ghoul’s attacks by adjusting his molecular density. Appearing as a hooded figure, Loki convinces Ghoul to use his powers to raise the dead and have their corpses swarm Vision. Vision easily fends off the first wave so Ghoul summons the corpses of the Exiles and Wonder Man. Wonder Man catches Vision off-guard and subdues him, but then Pixx’s corpse appears, horrifying Ghoul.

In Vahdala, Loki taunts Thor as the thunder god battles Prime, but Prime cannot see or hear Loki. Prime and Thor exchange blows until Thor uses Mjolnir to conjure lightning and fells Prime with it. When Thor tries to carry Prime, Prime’s body liquidates, revealing Kevin Green who appears dead. Horrified, Thor cradles his body and screams Loki’s name.

Grandmaster and Loki both claim victory until Loki convinces Grandmaster it was a draw. Grandmaster concedes and summons Sersi. She appears and thanks him; the entire contest was a ruse so she could get close to Loki and the other six Infinity Gems. She shows Loki the seventh Gem—the Ego Gem—and tells him the other Gems will not work against her. In response, he summons the Avengers and Ultraforce. The Black Knight reaches out for Sersi, but she swats him aside, tackles Loki, and kisses him, triggering an explosion. Sersi is free of the Ego Gem’s control, but it merges with the other Gems to resurrect the cosmic being they came from—Nemesis. Resurrected in a female form, she destroys both the Avengers’ and Ultraforce’s universes.
