Wolverine Assembles the New Avengers While Captain America Doom Fight for their Souls as Armageddon Rages On!

Posted on by

This summer, Earth’s Mightiest Heroes assemble for a battle that will define their next era in Avengers: Armageddon! The five-issue event series by superstar writer Chip Zdarsky and acclaimed artists Delio Diaz and Frank Alpizar launches in June, and today, fans can learn about issue #3, on sale in August, which teases the team’s new post-Armageddon lineup.

Avengers: Armageddon shakes up the Avengers in a way not seen since Avengers: Disassembled, kicking off when the team assembles to stop Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross, A.K.A. Red Hulk, from igniting a global conflict following his takeover of Latveria. The saga is currently being set up in Zdarsky’s hit run of Captain America as well as the Wolverine: Weapons of Armageddon limited series which follows Wolverine and Dave Colton, a new Captain America introduced in Zdarsky’s run, as they team up to dismantle an all-new super soldier program. Along the way, the pair will unleash a mysterious power originating from another universe that will shift the tide of the coming battle with Ross—but at a heavy cost.

CIVILIANS RIOT, VILLAINS RISE AND HEROES FALL!

The entire globe is thrown into chaos in Avengers: Armageddon #3. With the rest of the world turning against the Avengers, what will they choose? Stand down or fight against Red Hulk, even as he seems more and more unbeatable? And when an unstable new power takes center stage…the Avengers – and the world – will need all the help they can get! Wolverine sends out the call: AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!

Meanwhile, the next arc of Captain America serves a companion to the event, continuing in Captain America #14 with art by Ton Lima. The story sees Captain America, desperate to return to Earth to stop Armageddon, teaming up with Doctor Doom to acquire a weapon powerful enough to defeat their captor: Mephisto!

A SOUL FOR A SOUL…

In Captain America #14, Captain America and Victor Von Doom, bound together in an unfamiliar war zone, are after the ANTIDIVINE – a sword powerful enough to destroy Mephisto. But someone else also has their eyes on the weapon! Can Steve stop Doom’s first love from destroying Victor as his own soul hangs in the balance?

A New Hero with Unrivaled Power Turns the Tide of Battle in Avengers: Armageddon #2!

Posted on by

The final reckoning that leads to a major shakeup for the Avengers begins this June in Avengers: Armageddon, a five-issue event series by superstar writer Chip Zdarsky and acclaimed artists Delio Diaz and Frank Alpizar. Check out the cover for issue #2, which teases a new hero coming to the frontlines with power that outmatches both sides of the conflict.

Spinning out Zdarsky’s hit Captain America run and the recently launched Wolverine: Weapons of Armageddon limited series, Avengers: Armageddon sees a colossal new lineup of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes assemble to stop Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross, A.K.A. Red Hulk, from unleashing a devastating tear across the globe after his takeover of Latveria. Ahead of Armageddon, fans should continue reading Wolverine: Weapons of Armageddon to learn more about who the new hero is and the mysterious origins of his abilities, which may pose an even greater threat to the world than Red Hulk.

Meanwhile, the next arc of Zdarsky and Valerio Schiti’s acclaimed run of Captain America serves a companion to the event, continuing in July’s Captain America #13, featuring guest artist Ton Lima. The shocking storyline sees Captain America, desperate to make his way back to Earth, forced to work with Doctor Doom to escape from a place he never imagined he’d find himself in…

YOU’RE GOING DOWN, THUNDERBOLT ROSS!

In Avengers: Armageddon #2, Red Hulk’s tirade across the globe must be stopped! Until a mysterious new hero with unrivaled power appears to level Red Hulk and the Avengers…

CAPTAIN AMERICA: HELL’S ANGEL!

In Captain America #13, Victor von Doom has captured the soul of Captain America, dragging him to an unfamiliar battlefield to use him as an unwilling weapon. As Steve Rogers struggles to survive in a world he doesn’t understand, the world he left behind needs him more than ever. And Armageddon draws ever closer…

Doctor Doom enlists Captain America for the fight against Ultimate Evil as Armageddon Erupts

Posted on by

This June, Avengers: Armageddon changes the face of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes for a new age! The upcoming limited series by writer Chip Zdarsky and artists Frank Alpizar and Delio Diaz spins directly out of Zdarsky and Valerio Schiti’s run of Captain America, which also kicks off a new arc in June with issue #12.

The current arc sees Captain America accompany the all-new S.H.I.E.L.D. into Latveria to maintain order in Doom’s absence. But Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross, A.K.A. Red Hulk, is determined to enact revenge on Latveria, and his actions have dire repercussions, both for Captain America and the world. As the world—and a new team of Avengers—unites against Red Hulk in Avengers: Armageddon, Captain America finds himself enlisted in a startling war against his will, serving at the behest of Victor Von Doom! Doom, not seen since his fall in last year’s One World Under Doom, needs Cap’s help for his most ambitious plan ever in a shocking arc that continues to boldly redefine Captain America and Doctor Doom’s dynamic and serves as a key companion piece to Avengers: Armageddon.

After S.H.I.E.L.D.’s campaign in Latveria meets a brutal and violent end, Captain America finds himself in the last place he expected to be, alongside the last person he expected to see again. Where has Victor Von Doom been since One World Under Doom, and what does he want with Steve Rogers? Find out here as everything hurtles toward ARMAGEDDON!

Check out Schiti’s main cover along with a variant cover by Cory Smith and add Captain America to your pull list at your local comic shop today!
