Publication history[]

Spencer said, "What the book is all about is really in the title. This is a book about geography. Its about what Marvel Earth looks like now. Obviously we've seen the Avengers make a pretty big statement about this world being under their protection and them being the representatives of our world. So it felt like it was time to do a book about what that planet looks like; not just Marvel New York or Marvel Space, but what does Marvel Europe, Asia and Africa look like right now? So it was a chance to do a story that was really global in scope and go some places that maybe we haven't been to before and really play with the idea of what that changing landscape would look like."[1]

Plot[]

Using an unknown device, A.I.M.'s Scientist Supreme Andrew Forson accelerated the flow of time in the limits of the A.I.M. Island, creating in a matter of hours for the real world years of progress and transforming A.I.M. into a technologically advanced empire. When the source of mysterious seismic events was revealed to be A.I.M. Island, Smasher went to investigate along with Cannonball and Sunspot. When they arrived to the location, they were captured by the A.I.M. Troopers.[2] Smasher was chosen by Andrew Forson and Jude the Entropic Man to become his Messenger for the secret of the universe....that "Everything dies." Smasher was reluctant to spread the message, but is made to do so by Andrew Forson.[3]
