Mission 1[]
"Runic carvings, Hand artifacts, and an influx of Circle of 8 cultists. Someone is preparing a ritual in Wakanda."
— Mission Preview
Mission Start[]
Falcon: |
The nature of that involvement isn't clear, but we'll know soon enough. |
Maria Hill: |
Mission priorities are to break up whatever the Circle of 8 and the Hand are planning, and clear out the Hand presence here. |
Agent Coulson: |
We have Black Panther's approval to do whatever is necessary to execute the mission. Let's go. |
Deploy 1[]
Screen Text[]
The Circle of 8 continues to go worldwide with their sacrifices. Wakandan security forces appear to have found one.
Start[]
Maria Hill: |
Wakandan security forces broke up a Circle of 8 sacrifice. Too late to help the victim, though.
Send a hero to help identify the body. It's not a civilian. |
Complete[]
Maria Hill: |
I believe that is Turner D. Century. |
Agent Coulson: |
Looks like his time was up. |
Deploy 2[]
Screen Text[]
Another Circle of 8 sacrificial site. This time it’s Dr. Bong, or at least we think it is. Send someone to assist in the scene processing.
Start[]
Agent Coulson: |
We've found Dr. Bong dead at a sacrificial site... or someone else with a missing hand wearing his helmet. |
Maria Hill: |
Missing hand could just be from the Circle of 8 ritual. |
Agent Coulson: |
Wakandan security says it's an old amputation. But get someone over there to confirm. |
Complete[]
Tony Stark: |
Not just Dr. Bong. There are more of those runes here, like the ones Malekith left all over the Savage Land. |
Agent Coulson: |
Asgard's enemies working in conjunction with the Circle of 8? Makes sense now that we know about the Worthy. |
Deploy 3[]
Screen Text[]
Wakandan security needs some extra firepower to clear a Hand stronghold. War Machine is already patrolling in the area.
Start[]
Tony Stark: |
Rhodey, we've got a call for assistance from Wakandan security. Seems like they could use some backup to go after a Hand stronghold. |
War Machine: |
Hit me with the coordinates and I am en route. |
Complete[]
War Machine: |
Nothing like a straight-up frontal assault. |
Tony Stark: |
If only everything could be that simple, right? |
Deploy 4[]
Screen Text[]
A field team cleared a Circle of 8 hideout here. Send a hero to oversee the collection of any unusual artifacts.
Deploy 5[]
Screen Text[]
The Circle of 8 was using a radio telescope at this location. We don’t know why, but if they’re not just measuring stars we need to know. Send Nova to take a quick look at near-Earth space above Wakanda.
Start[]
Nova: |
You got it. |
Complete[]
Nova: |
Nothing up there but space junk and an awesome view. |
Maria Hill: |
Maybe they're looking for a particular configuration of stars or planets. We'll keep investigating. |
Heroic Battle[]
Screen Text[]
Beta Ray Bill, Angela, and Loki are deployed to disperse the growing Asgardian threat in Wakanda.
Start[]
Angela: |
Malekith is not the only rogue of the Nine Realms here. I see before me his puppy Kurse. |
Loki: |
Flanked by the sulfurous oaf Surtur and Amora's scorned suitor, Skurge. |
Better an oaf ruling Muspelheim than a backbiting silver-tongued liar creeping through the shadows of Asgard. | Surtur: |
Loki: |
Do you seek Malekith? That search is in vain, I fear. |
Beta Ray Bill: |
You have found us instead. |
Lose[]
Dare Asgard's other champions appear? It seems not. Forward. Malekith awaits. | Executioner: |
Complete[]
Angela: |
The bald one has led them to safety using his axe to rip open a portal. |
Beta Ray Bill: |
That's Skurge and his Bloodaxe. We should follow. |
Loki: |
I think not. They wanted to be here. If we follow, they may loop around and elude us. We must remain and guard this place for now. |
MiniBoss - Malekith[]
Reveal[]
Maria Hill: |
Malekith. Last time we saw him, he was snooping around the Savage Land. |
Agent Coulson: |
Wonder if he came here to find whatever he was looking for there. |
Maria Hill: |
They were looking to open some kind of portal there using Asgardian runic magic. We'll have to keep an eye out for similar runes here. |
Falcon: |
I'm ready. Agent, you ready? Let's take him out before he finishes what he was trying to start in the Savage Land. |
Start[]
Falcon: |
Putting graffiti on T'Challa's rocks? I don't think he'll approve. |
Signposts, human. To guide the approach of the host that will end this world. | Malekith: |
Falcon: |
I know T'Challa wouldn't approve of that. |
Lose[]
Mighty powers are stirring, human. Your world will burn and be gone. | Malekith: |
Repeat[]
You cannot defeat me... and even if you could, what we have started cannot be undone now. | Malekith: |
Complete[]
Falcon: |
The Hand and the Circle of 8 both had a presence here. Along with Malekith's dark elves. |
Agent Coulson: |
Sounds like the other side is consolidating its alliance. We'd better do the same. |
Falcon: |
Point me in the right direction, and I'll get it. |
Boss - Sebastian Shaw[]
Reveal[]
Falcon: |
Sir. I tracked a runaway from that last Hand hideout, and he headed straight here. Guess who was waiting to meet him?
Sebastian Shaw. |
Agent Coulson: |
The Hellfire Club and the Hand. Interesting. |
Maria Hill: |
And the Circle of 8. |
Agent Coulson: |
Even more interesting. Put that together with the presence of Malekith, and we've got a lot of our enemies conspiring together.
I don't think we want to let this go any farther. |
Falcon: |
We'll see that it doesn't. |
Start[]
Falcon: |
I see Hand, Circle of 8, Hellfire... a real rogues' gallery. You've got some unsavory friends, Shaw. |
Ah, nice of you to join us. You are just in time to see the results of our labor. | Sebastian Shaw: |
Agent Coulson: |
Falcon, we've got a powerful magical emanation coming from your location. Whatever you're going to do, now's the time to do it. |
Falcon: |
Shaw, T'Challa specifically told me no unauthorized occult rituals on Wakandan soil. We're taking you in. |
I do not recognize T'Challa's authority. Do what you must... as shall I. | Sebastian Shaw: |
In-Fight[]
Go! You have what you need! | Sebastian Shaw: |
Falcon: |
Sir, a Circle of 8 cultist is on the run out of here. Shall I pursue? |
Agent Coulson: |
We're on it, Falcon. Hold your position. |
Lose[]
Events are now officially out of your control. Time to reconsider your future. | Sebastian Shaw: |
Repeat[]
Coming after me again? You know you're too late. | Sebastian Shaw: |
Complete[]
Agent Coulson: |
We lost him. |
Falcon: |
I could have-- |
Maria Hill: |
Stay with the mission, Falcon. Where is Shaw? |
Falcon: |
Through a portal and gone. |
Agent Coulson: |
We're sending assets to look for traces of the magical energies released there. We'll find him. |
Falcon: |
Roger that. |
Mission Complete[]
Maria Hill: |
We're on the trail of the escaped Circle of 8 cultists. |
Agent Coulson: |
If we catch a break, they'll lead us to Skadi. |
Falcon: |
Do we know what they have, or what they were trying to learn? |
Agent Coulson: |
There are still more Worthy coming, if the stories Thor got from Odin are correct. And then there's the question of the Serpent himself... |
Maria Hill: |
Thor, you're just in time to help us clarify something. The Circle of 8 just completed a magical ritual, with the assistance of the Hand. It didn't involve a hammer. |
Agent Coulson: |
Should we be expecting the Serpent himself to appear soon? |
Nick Fury: |
If those hammers still haven't been found, then we need to get there first. Get to it. |
Mission 2[]
"The Dark Avengers call the Worthy to battle in the middle of London. They either really want a hammer of their own, or they've got a deathwish."
— Mission Preview
Mission Start[]
Maria Hill: |
The Dark Avengers are in London. We've seen both Daken and Yelena Belova. Intel reports Ragnarok is in the city, too. |
Tony Stark: |
So are the Circle of 8 and the Hand, just like in Wakanda. |
Maria Hill: |
We think the Dark Avengers are hunting the hammers, or possibly the Worthy. They might think they can take a hammer from one of the Worthy and use it themselves. |
Tony Stark: |
Who can blame him? Agent, you'd better stay with Ares and make sure he doesn't get out of control. |
Deploy 1[]
Screen Text[]
Every time we're in London, we have extra trouble with the Hellfire Club. Let's try to get ahead of that problem. Send a hero to do recon on known Hellfire Club stations.
Deploy 2[]
Screen Text[]
Shatterstar thinks he's spotted Bullseye skulking around. That would fit with the Dark Avengers being here.
Start[]
Shatterstar: |
I do believe I've seen Bullseye ghosting around the edges of the area where the Dark Avengers are active.
Should I try to pin him down? |
Agent Coulson: |
Please do. I'm curious why he's not joining in on the action. |
Complete[]
Shatterstar: |
He took a shot at me and ran. Pursue? |
Agent Coulson: |
If you think you've got a chance of catching him. |
Shatterstar: |
He hit me in the eye. I'm not sure where he went. |
Agent Coulson: |
Then you'd better get back for treatment. We'll keep up the search. |
Deploy 3[]
Screen Text[]
We've got a call from Scotland Yard about a probable Circle of 8 kill site.
Start[]
Agent Coulson: |
Scotland Yard is calling us into a Circle of 8 murder scene. Send a hero to get us some images of the victim so we can do an ID. |
Complete[]
Tony Stark: |
Razor Fist. I don't even need a DNA sample to confirm this one. Is there anyone else whose hands have both been replaced by blades? |
Agent Coulson: |
Don't think so. |
Tony Stark: |
Then this is Razor Fist for sure. |
Deploy 4[]
Screen Text[]
Send Thundra to assist a field patrol. They ran into a HYDRA detachment outside the city and we've lost contact.
Start[]
Maria Hill: |
Thundra, a joint S.H.I.E.L.D.-MI-13 field patrol has encountered a strong HYDRA force here. It's your turn to crack some skulls. |
Thundra: |
I'm on my way. |
Complete[]
Agent Coulson: |
The patrol is back in communication. Thundra responded but then she disappeared after eliminating the HYDRA force. |
Maria Hill: |
Thundra? Thundra, are you there? |
Agent Coulson: |
Where did she go? |
Deploy 5[]
Screen Text[]
MI-13 is reporting that they haven't seen Black Knight in a while. They could use some extra help with the search.
Heroic Battle[]
Screen Text[]
Red Hulk, Elektra, and Ghost Rider take on Mephisto and the foes from Hell.
Start[]
Elektra: |
Demons are getting frisky. Something big is coming. |
Something big is already here, or did you mean--no, I mustn't say. I would hate to spoil the surprise. | Mephisto: |
Ghost Rider: |
Spoil it. Go on. Hurry up so we can start killing off your legions here. |
You're welcome to try. There are more where those came from, and far more interesting things yet to come. | Mephisto: |
Elektra: |
That's what the Hand was trying to do in Wakanda, wasn't it? Open a way for "more interesting things"? |
I swore not to spoil the surprise, and I won't. In fact, perhaps I've said too much already, and I must kill you to ensure your silence. | Mephisto: |
Lose[]
I'll whisper the secret into your dying ears... | Mephisto: |
Repeat[]
Red Hulk: |
You think you know heat, Mephisto? I'll show you heat. |
Complete[]
Red Hulk: |
Is that all of them? I'm just getting warmed up.
I could do this all day. Every day. Nothing makes me happy like violence I don't have to regret. |
Ghost Rider: |
I know the feeling. One of these days it's going to be Mephisto in the crosshairs, permanently. I won't regret that a bit. |
Elektra: |
How close do you think you've gotten to actually killing him? |
Ghost Rider: |
Not very. But it'll happen. |
Red Hulk: |
What was the big secret? |
Ghost Rider: |
Something to do with the Worthy, I bet. Don't know what exactly. |
MiniBoss - Dark Widow[]
Reveal[]
Maria Hill: |
Thanks to Ares rampaging through the city, Yelena Belova's been flushed out into the open. |
Agent Coulson: |
Soon as we tell Ares, he'll go after her. When you're ready, Agent. |
Start[]
Ares: |
Rusk's not pulling your strings anymore. Who is it now? |
You're not a very smooth interrogator, Ares. And I'm not easy to crack even for the best. | Dark Widow: |
Ares: |
Then I'll do what I do best, and ask someone else. |
Lose[]
The balance of power is shifting, war god. There are more like you now. You're about to see a war like no one has ever seen. | Dark Widow: |
Repeat[]
The world's burning around us, and you still want to fight? | Dark Widow: |
Complete[]
Ares: |
She escaped. I can only kill so many Circle of 8 cultists at once. |
Maria Hill: |
Why are they sacrificing themselves to keep her from being captured? |
Ares: |
I have no plan to take anyone captive. |
Agent Coulson: |
It's still a good question. They might think the Dark Avengers have a role to play in the ascendance of the Worthy. |
Maria Hill: |
Do they know who the Worthy are going to be? |
Agent Coulson: |
It's hard to know what they know, but that's a question worth answering. If we can ever get one of them talking, maybe we'll find out. |
MiniBoss - Dark Wolverine[]
Reveal[]
Agent Coulson: |
We've located Daken. He's surrounded by Hand ninjas. They won't do much to stop Ares, but you should be aware of them, Agent. |
Ares: |
I see him. Tell Wolverine when I am through, he can bury the body. |
Tony Stark: |
That's going to be a touchy conversation. |
Start[]
You want to fight, buddy, let's fight. None of it will matter pretty soon. We're going to be on the same side, and if I get lucky, maybe I'll see you get ripped in half. | Dark Wolverine: |
Ares: |
You're wasting your breath, Daken. I already hated you. |
Hey, common ground. | Dark Wolverine: |
Lose[]
Join up or die, Ares. | Dark Wolverine: |
Repeat[]
All right. You want to go again? It'll be a good warmup for the Worthy. | Dark Wolverine: |
Complete[]
Ares: |
Say the word, and I strike off his head. |
Tony Stark: |
I don't want to say those words. Wolverine will get mad at me. |
Maria Hill: |
Hold him for now, Ares. We'll get him immobilized and headed for the Raft. |
Boss - Dark Thor[]
Reveal[]
Maria Hill: |
Ragnarok has broken into the open. He's calling down lightning and shouting for the Worthy to come out and face him. Specifically, the Breaker of Oceans. |
Tony Stark: |
We haven't seen that one yet. How do you break an ocean? |
Agent Coulson: |
If Ragnarok goes head-to-head with one of the Worthy, we might find out. |
Tony Stark: |
That would be a heavyweight fight worth watching. |
Maria Hill: |
Except it would level this whole part of the city. Ares is going after Ragnarok, and we're going to hope none of the Worthy answer his call. |
Start[]
You stand between me and the Worthy. | Dark Thor: |
Ares: |
Is that where you're going? I should get out of the way, then, and watch you die.
But that's not my style. And I don't see any Worthy. |
You will, if you live long enough. Which you will not if you do not yield. | Dark Thor: |
Ares: |
Yielding isn't my style either. |
Lose[]
Breaker of Oceans, I know you are near! | Dark Thor: |
Repeat[]
Ares: |
You still haven't drawn any of the Worthy out, I see. |
Complete[]
Ares: |
Coward. He flew away with his fake Mjolnir. I have rarely wished to be able to fly, but right now... |
Tony Stark: |
The Dark Avengers were trying to draw out the Worthy? What are they, nuts? |
Agent Coulson: |
In a word, yes. Most of them. |
Maria Hill: |
They think they can take the Worthy down. Remember how much this team loves grandstanding. If they can take out even one of the Worthy... |
Tony Stark: |
Right. I get it. They make S.H.I.E.L.D. look bad and themselves look tough. I've seen that movie. Not going to happen this time. |
Mission Complete[]
Tony Stark: |
Well, now we've established that the Dark Avengers have a death wish. There's no other explanation for them trying to pick a fight with the Worthy. |
Maria Hill: |
Unless they really think they can win. |
Tony Stark: |
If that's the case, they're even more dangerous to us, because they'll start something and we'll have to finish it. |
Maria Hill: |
If we can. |
Tony Stark: |
Hence dangerous. Daken's on his way to a hardened cell on the Raft. We'll pick up the others when we find them again. |
Maria Hill: |
Remember, Ragnarok knows at least some of what Thor knows. That might be why this happened. He might be trying to stop the Serpent by picking off the Worthy. |
Tony Stark: |
That's what we're doing. It's not going so well for either of us. |
Agent Coulson: |
We're about to get another chance. Reports are that another one of the Worthy is in New York. We're not sure which one. Let's get there and find out. |
Mission 3[]
"A new Incursion portal appears in New York, but before the team can respond, someone takes matters into their own hands."
— Mission Preview
Mission Start[]
Nick Fury: |
An Incursion portal has also opened up in the city. It's going to draw grandiose villains like honey draws flies. To them, Incursions are like a free-fire zone for doomsday devices. |
Agent Coulson: |
Or a way to jump to another Earth and leave this one behind. |
Nick Fury: |
The Hand are already snooping around this Incursion portal. Encircle the area and do everything you can to get it closed. |
Tony Stark: |
Everything? |
Nick Fury: |
Everything short of what you're not saying out loud. |
Agent Coulson: |
Hold on. Sensors are going nuts on all kinds of frequencies.
The portal just... it's gone. |
Tony Stark: |
Did someone close it? How? |
Agent Coulson: |
Working on it. This is... I've never seen readings like this coming out of a portal. Need some time to analyze them. |
Maria Hill: |
Here's something else weird. Right in the middle of all the chaos and destruction around the Incursion portal, there's one spot that looks untouched. |
Tony Stark: |
Let's take a closer look, once we're sure the Incursion isn't going to pop open again. |
Deploy 1[]
Screen Text[]
There have been several building collapses as a result of the Incursion. Response teams sure could use somone with telekinetic powers. Phoenix?
Start[]
Agent Coulson: |
Phoenix, we know you'd rather be chasing bad guys, but first responders near the Incursion site could use some help lifting tons of rubble off victims. |
Phoenix: |
It's all part of the super hero job description. |
Complete[]
Phoenix: |
These sites are cleared. I'm back in the fight. |
Deploy 2[]
Screen Text[]
Another Circle of 8 kill site. We can't ID the victim from the pictures the cops are sharing. Daimon Hellstrom is in the area. Plus he was a PI for a while. He can help with the ID.
Start[]
Maria Hill: |
There's a Circle of 8 kill site here with an unknown victim. Daimon, you're close by. Take a look and see if you can either confirm an ID or get us images for facial recognition. |
Daimon Hellstrom: |
Will do. I just caught a pair of the Circle of 8 cultists near here. Must be a fresh kill. |
Complete[]
Daimon Hellstrom: |
I don't recognize her. |
Agent Coulson: |
We do. She went by Coldmoon. Poor kid. She helped out the Avengers a couple of times. |
Maria Hill: |
She's got a twin brother. This is going to be tough on him. |
Daimon Hellstrom: |
Dragonfire, right? I'll go find him. |
Deploy 3[]
Screen Text[]
Tony is wondering if maybe the family connection between Thor and the Serpent might make it possible for Thor to find him. Let's give it a try.
Start[]
Tony Stark: |
I had a thought. If we're hunting for Thor's uncle, maybe there's a family... connection? Can Thor detect him somehow, or even detect the Worthy? |
Thor: |
This is possible. Seeing is Heimdall's gift, not mine, but if you wish me to look, I will look. |
Tony Stark: |
That would be great. |
Complete[]
Thor: |
Powerful sorcery is hiding the Worthy from me. I can sense it but not penetrate it. |
Tony Stark: |
Figures. We're back to using regular eyeballs. |
Deploy 4[]
Screen Text[]
The cops called in another Circle of 8 ritual site. Let's get an ID on the victim.
Start[]
Tony Stark: |
The cops have got a Circle of 8 ritual site under wraps. We're sending someone over to see who those lunatics got this time. |
Complete[]
Agent Coulson: |
It's Bloodshed. I recognize the armor. There's... not much else to go on. |
Maria Hill: |
I thought his skin was bullet- and blade-proof. |
Tony Stark: |
Not magic-proof, I guess. |

Green Goblin crashes a Symbiote family reunion.
Start[]
Agent Venom: |
Whoa. Now we know what the Green Goblin's been up to: a little Symbiote wrangling. |
I like their work ethic. They don't stop killing until all the killing is done. | Green Goblin: |
Starting... now! | Scream: |
You got it. | Carnage: |
Anti-Venom: |
Green Goblin's right about one thing. The killing's just getting started. |
Ah. You are the zealot? | Green Goblin: |
Anti-Venom: |
That's what some people call me. |
I prefer the company of zealots. You always know where they stand. | Green Goblin: |
Lose[]
Feeding time at the zoo! | Carnage: |
Repeat[]
Anti-Venom: |
The Symbiote corruption isn't purified yet. |
Complete[]
Agent Venom: |
Goblin scooted away. At least we have the toothy lovers. |
Anti-Venom: |
They're alive. We did nothing to purge the Symbiote infection. |
Agent Venom: |
Well, we did a little something. They're headed for the Raft. |
Anti-Venom: |
Not enough. They need to be cured! |
Agent Venom: |
Killjoy. |
MiniBoss - Arnim Zola[]
Reveal[]
Tony Stark: |
And there's the first of our mad scientists coming to gawk at the Incursion: Arnim Zola. |
Nick Fury: |
Any other HYDRA presence? |
Agent Coulson: |
Not that we've seen, Boss. |
Nick Fury: |
Psylocke, you are in close proximity to Arnim Zola and possibly some of his HYDRA subordinates. Engage and see if he's the one who destabilized the Incursion. |
Psylocke: |
Understood. |
Nick Fury: |
Agent, put a team together around Psylocke and get moving. |
Start[]
Psylocke: |
Back your people down, Zola. If you collapsed that Incursion, S.H.I.E.L.D. would like to know how. If you didn't, S.H.I.E.L.D. would like to know exactly what you thought you were doing. |
S.H.I.E.L.D. at last has recognized the superiority of my intellect. | Arnim Zola: |
Psylocke: |
Not in the least. We're concerned you'll do something stupid or dangerous. Or both. |
I am rarely accused of stupidity. This is research. You are a walking weapon who knows nothing of what I do. Remove her! | Arnim Zola: |
Lose[]
You angered me. Now I will return to my work. | Arnim Zola: |
Repeat[]
This is a marvel. The world has never seen its like! Leave me to study it! | Arnim Zola: |
Complete[]
Psylocke: |
Before it collapsed, Zola was sending his mind-controlled creations through the Incursion. There's something specific he wants to know about it. |
Maria Hill: |
Did he find out? |
Psylocke: |
I don't think so. Ask him when he wakes up. His screen is just white noise right now. |
Tony Stark: |
You scrambled his signal pretty good. |
MiniBoss - Mysterio[]
Reveal[]
Agent Coulson: |
In the middle of all the Incursion energy readings, I'm also getting strange chemical signatures. Matching them... ah. They appear to be compounds Mysterio favors. |
Maria Hill: |
Mysterio is investigating Incursions? |
Tony Stark: |
That's all I need to hear. Go get him. |
Start[]
You interfere before you know what you're interfering with! | Mysterio: |
Psylocke: |
It doesn't always pay to know too much. |
When the Incursion opens again, this machine will project an illusion that our Earth is already in ruins. The other Earth will stay out. Clever, no? | Mysterio: |
Psylocke: |
You just couldn't resist explaining. |
It is my curse. I keep so many secrets that when the opportunity presents itself to reveal a particular trick, I am unable to resist! | Mysterio: |
Lose[]
Mysterio triumphs once more! | Mysterio: |
Repeat[]
Are you insane? Do you want our Earth invaded by these simulacra? | Mysterio: |
Complete[]
Nick Fury: |
Get Mysterio to the Raft. Hold a perimeter around the collapsed Incursion. |
Tony Stark: |
That actually might not be a bad idea, projecting an illusion of our Earth at Incursion points. Let me get a look at that machine. |
Agent Coulson: |
Where is this Worthy we're chasing? The city's on fire. It must be around here somewhere. |
Nick Fury: |
This whole thing is being staged. They appear when it maximizes the impact. All we can do is be ready. |
Boss - Mandarin[]
Reveal[]
Agent Coulson: |
We've been analyzing the readings from the collapsed Incursion portal. It didn't just close. The other Earth was just blown out of existence. |
Maria Hill: |
Someone destroyed it? |
I did it. I have saved you all. By now, you should know that each Earth is being tested to see which is -- you will pardon the phrase -- worthy. Today... we survived. | Mandarin: |
Tony Stark: |
Mandarin. Destroying a planet just to show off? That's a little cold-blooded even for you. How does killing over seven billion people make even a little sense to you? |
Don't pretend the idea has not occurred to you, Stark. You know the threat of Incursions better than anyone, yet you haven't told your comrades the truth. | Mandarin: |
Maria Hill: |
What is he talking about, Mr. Stark? |
If you wish for this Earth to survive, the logic of Incursions demands other Earths must die. It is not my logic. It is the logic of the multiverse. You can thank me later. | Mandarin: |
Tony Stark: |
Psylocke, show the Mandarin how much we appreciate his service. |
Start[]
You will punish me? For what transgression? I am the only reason you still draw breath. | Mandarin: |
Psylocke: |
I've heard people rationalize a lot of terrible things, but this is the first time I've ever heard someone be flippant about exterminating a planet full of people. |
I am not flippant. But neither will I indulge in a show of false guilt. This needed to be done. If I am the only one willing to take that step, then so be it. | Mandarin: |
Psylocke: |
And you're just going to keep doing it to every other Incursion Earth? I don't think so. |
My dear, I have already save this Earth countless times from other Incursions. You never saw me coming. | Mandarin: |
Lose[]
If I have the power to destroy a planet, how do you imagine you threaten me? | Mandarin: |
Repeat[]
I have done what I have done. You are alive because of it. | Mandarin: |
Complete[]
Tony Stark: |
The Mandarin made his statement. Psylocke, any sense of where he went? |
Psylocke: |
He teleported somewhere. I could sense him making the decision, but I didn't pick up a destination. |
Agent Coulson: |
Back to wherever he's keeping his extra copies of the world-destroying device he built. |
Maria Hill: |
Stark, we have to talk. What exactly do you know about Incursions? What's this about the "logic" of Incursions? |
Tony Stark: |
... |
Nick Fury: |
That's information on a need to know basis, Hill. |
Maria Hill: |
Director? You knew about this. |
Nick Fury: |
We'll debate ethics later. Right now we've got to find that Worthy. All assets into the field. |

How do we reverse it? |
Tony Stark: |
Find the Serpent and kill him? That's my guess. But we don't even know for sure if that will work. |
Hawkeye: |
Sounds like a good start, though. |
Maria Hill: |
We need you to keep your head, Hawkeye. If you let this get personal, that weakens the team. |

øßńëżœ | Nerkkod: |
Psylocke: |
Does he now. Mind pointing out where? We'd very much like to know. |
Agent Coulson: |
You're fighting a delaying action here, Psylocke. The Worthy are trying to spread fear. If you can hold them up, that starts to restore people's confidence. |
Tony Stark: |
In other words, all you have to do to win is slow her down until she decides she's sowed all the terror she can. |
Psylocke: |
That and survive, one assumes? |
Tony Stark: |
Well, sure, if you want to be picky. |

Psylocke: |
Let's try this again, shall we? Watch the hammer. |

Psylocke: |
It seems you were right, Coulson. She tried to kill me, but I get the impression she didn't try as hard as she might have. |
Tony Stark: |
They're building up to a big show. All of them together, with Cul at their head. |
Maria Hill: |
Are we anticipating this, or trying to prevent it? |
Tony Stark: |
Both. But I'll confess it's mostly anticipation on my part. We're going to have to take them all down at once. Until then, we're just sparring. |
Mission Complete[]
Tony Stark: |
First Octavius, now the Mandarin. I'm starting to feel a little like I'm behind in an arms race. Don't like it. |
Nick Fury: |
This is a race I don't want to win. We can't just destroy every other Earth. There's got to be another way. |
Tony Stark: |
That's a little tenderhearted for you, Nick. |
Nick Fury: |
You know nothing about what I feel, Stark. I take no death lightly. |
Tony Stark: |
It's not about taking it lightly. It's about the alternative being worse. |
Nick Fury: |
For who? You think they don't want to live as badly as we do? Or they aren't deserving? |
Tony Stark: |
They're other versions of us. We're the originals. You feel bad about killing a clone, Nick? An LMD? |
Nick Fury: |
I'll skip the Tony Stark Morality Game.
All those people thought they were the originals and we were the others. But we decided that for them, didn't we? |
Tony Stark: |
Not we. The Mandarin. |
Nick Fury: |
That's the thing. If we're talking about the survival of the planet, I'm not sure we can do anything but band together. All of us.
We can always get back to killing each other later. |
Tony Stark: |
... What are we going to tell Hill and the others now that Mandarin spilled the beans? |
Nick Fury: |
You let me handle that, while you find a way to stop these Incursions before the next one. |

Spider-Man: |
Hey, this isn't Pismo Beach.
Hello? S.H.I.E.L.D.? Nobody told me about a training exercise. You know I hate those. |
Spider-Man! Welcome back to Murderworld! You're going to be a star! And like all true stars, you will burn brightly... and then go dark. | Arcade: |
Spider-Man: |
You know I'm camera-shy, right? I feel so violated. Hello? Ah, nevermind. Here we go... |

No sorcery, my friend. It's a game. The rules are simple. Kill or be killed! You're about to see your opponents. It's showtime! | Arcade: |
Fandral: |
We are no prancing ponies for your enjoyment. |
Au contraire, noble Fandral. I have made you exactly that, and if you would survive... you'd better prance well. | Arcade: |
Volstagg: |
You, with the steel bar. I know you. |
You oughta. I'm the Wrecker, and this is the Wrecking Crew! | Wrecker: |
Volstagg: |
And we are the Warriors Three! Let the battle be joined! |
That's just what we were thinking. You know Arcade's only going to let one of us out alive. That's how he operates. | Thunderball: |
Fandral: |
Then I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it won't be you. |

Okay ponies, time to prance! | Arcade: |

Yeah, you better run! But we'll find you no matter where you go! | Piledriver: |

Hogun: |
They are defeated. Now let us find our way out of this place. |
Fandral: |
Anyone seen Spider-Man? He was here, on the screens. |
Volstagg: |
He will know the way out. Let us search for him, and if we see this Wrecking Crew again, we will beat them down once more! |
That won't be necessary, but I'll remember that for next time. Cheerio! Aren't they great everybody! | Arcade: |
MiniBoss - Ironclad[]
Reveal[]
Meet the first of the mortal threats our Spider-Contestant will face: Vapor, Vector, Ironclad, and X-Ray: The U-Foes! | Arcade: |
Start[]
Don't know if I've ever been on TV before. | Ironclad: |
Spider-Man: |
You get used to it. |
Here's a little surprise: for each of these marquee matchups, I will import a single ally for Spider-Man -- in addition to the agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., of course. This time, it's... Domino! | Arcade: |
Spider-Man: |
Hooray, I'm not alone anymore! |
Domino: |
What the hell is this? |
Spider-Man: |
Remember how we had to fight our way out of the World Trade Center once? This is just like that! Only it's Murderworld.
And instead of loony mutants, it's Ironclad, but you get the idea. |
Domino: |
The idea I'm getting is that you need me to save your ass again. |
Spider-Man: |
Well. Yeah, kind of. |
Lose[]
Bring in whoever you want. You still can't handle me. | Ironclad: |
Repeat[]
Spider-Man: |
If only I'd spent more time working on my webbing with special rust properties. |
Complete[]
Thanks a million, Domino! We'll be seeing you! | Arcade: |
Spider-Man: |
She's gone already? I didn't even get to say thanks.
And I mean, who saved whose keister? Let's be honest here. |
MiniBoss - Vapor[]
Start[]
Ooh, Spider-Man has spotted another dangerous U-Foe: Vapor! Things are getting a little gassy around here!
Spider-Man... the courageous Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. ... and the Inhuman Crystal! |
Arcade: |
Spider-Man: |
This ought to be good. |
Crystal: |
What place is this? |
Spider-Man: |
Oh, this is Murderworld. You've been teleported in or something to help me fight... which one again? |
Don't talk about me like I'm not here. | Vapor: |
Spider-Man: |
That's Vapor. If we don't defeat her we get killed. |
Crystal: |
Simple enough. |
Lose[]
Crystal wasn't too much help to you, was she, Spider-Man? | Vapor: |
Complete[]
A big hand for Crystal of the Inhumans, ladies and gentlemen! That was not an easy matchup for her! We'll be sending her a little prize. | Arcade: |
MiniBoss - X-Ray[]

Our surprise guest for this battle will be... wait for it... Jericho Drumm! | Arcade: |
Doctor Voodoo: |
What am I doing here? |
Dying. | X-Ray: |
Spider-Man: |
Snap! That was the perfect villainous rejoinder! |
Murderworld's a good place for them. | X-Ray: |
Doctor Voodoo: |
No one has answered my question. |
Spider-Man: |
Look, I'd explain the whole thing but Arcade's just going to beam you out of here the minute this fight's over, so can we just get on with it? I'll tell you about it later. |
Lose[]
Voodoo doesn't hold up too well to radiation, now, does he? | X-Ray: |
Complete[]
Doctor Voodoo: |
Time for that explanation. |
Spider-Man: |
Right. So-- |
A big hand for Doctor Voodoo, ladies and gentlemen! | Arcade: |
Spider-Man: |
That was kind of rude. I was talking. |
MiniBoss - Vector[]
Start[]
Hogun's the lucky man who gets to accompany Spider-Man this time around! | Arcade: |
Like in Hogan's Heroes? | Vector: |
Spider-Man: |
He's Asgardian. I don't think he gets the joke.
I mean, do they even have TV in Asgard, Hogun? |
Hogun: |
No. |
Spider-Man: |
You don't get to watch too much here, either, huh? |
Hogun: |
No. |
Spider-Man: |
Well, you're on TV now, so maybe you can binge-watch yourself when we're all done. |
Lose[]
Time to put the murder in Murderworld. | Vector: |
Complete[]
Hogun: |
You never stop talking. |
Spider-Man: |
Nerves. |
And thanks very much to the silent third of the Warriors Three, Hogun! Give the other two Warriors my best, won't you? I'm sure we'll be seeing them very soon! | Arcade: |
Spider-Man: |
Usually I don't trust anti-social people. For him I make an exception. Guess I'll just have to talk to myself again. |
Boss - Titanium Man[]
Reveal[]
And now, the main event... Spider-Man versus Titanium Man! Can he squish the Spider, or will the wily wallcrawler find a way to overcome the overwhelming force of his armored foe? | Arcade: |
Start[]
Spider-Man: |
You know Arcade bet against you, right? He's setting you up for the cameras. It's like wrestling. You're the heel, I'm the face.
Well, except I guess I'm the mask. But you get the idea. |
I'll put my heel on your face! | Titanium Man: |
Spider-Man: |
Good one! The folks at home love wordplay. So, um... where's my other pal? Not that I don't love you, Agent. |
In a shocking twist, Spider-Man and the intrepid agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. will face Titanium Man with... the Fixer! | Arcade: |
Lose[]
Time to crush a Spider! | Titanium Man: |
Repeat[]
Spider-Man: |
Can this just be Reasonable Disagreement World this time? I'm not feeling murdery. |
Complete[]
A victory for brains over brawn, for the nimble over the numbskull! Let's hear it for Spider-Man! | Arcade: |
Spider-Man: |
Is this being broadcast in Russia? Titanium Man is going to be soooo embarrassed. |
A big round of virtual applause for the Fixer, everyone! He's gotten Spider-Man one step further toward his inevitably spectacular demise! | Arcade: |
Fixer: |
I'll be there when they scatter your ashes, Spider-Man. |
Spider-Man: |
Isn't he sweet. Whoa, Spidey-sense tingling... ooh, I think I might have figured the way out. Or is that...? |
Epic Boss - Arcade[]
Reveal[]
Spider-Man: |
Aha. There he is. |
See how clever Spider-Man is? He has located the control center of Murderworld, and now, we will clash! | Arcade: |
Spider-Man: |
I gotta tell you, Arcade. It's weird having you narrate everything I do.
Feels a little too meta. |
Interactivity, Spider-Man. That's what drives audience engagement! Do play along!
Psst. Agent. He doesn't know that he's going to have to fight me alone! |
Arcade: |
Spider-Man: |
I do now. |
Interactivity! | Arcade: |
Start[]
Spider-Man: |
Well, there you are! I've been looking everywhere for you! |
Spider-Man: |
My adoring public. They humble me. |
When you have... passed on... I'm sure their tributes will be quite touching. | Arcade: |
Lose[]
Try again, Spider-Man. This is Murderworld. My world! You think you can beat me when I make the rules? | Arcade: |

Spider-Man: |
It's me! No autographs, please. |
Agent Coulson: |
All the feeds from Murderworld went out. We weren't sure -- |
Spider-Man: |
Yeah, that was me. Murderworld is off the air, and Arcade is all tied up. You can go on in and pick him up. |
Agent Coulson: |
Will do. Good to see you back on the outside. |
Spider-Man: |
Smooches all around. Now I gotta run. Spidey-Sense is tingling, and what it tells me is get home pronto.
No rest for us Spider-Totems, I guess. |
Mission 5[]
"A hammer has fallen somewhere in the city, drawing out villains seeking an opportunity to become the next Worthy."
— Mission Preview
Mission Start[]
Agent Coulson: |
Hammerfall. Somewhere in the city. With all the fires and everything else, we haven't pinpointed the location. |
Tony Stark: |
We're also not the only people who know it's happened. Some of our "less thoughtful" enemies are actively trying to get their meaty mitts on a hammer. |
Agent Coulson: |
We know Absorbing Man is on the hunt. He tore apart one of our field teams responding to the initial hammerfall report. |
Maria Hill: |
There are likely others. Get out there, Agent, and find that hammer before someone else does. |
Tony Stark: |
But don't touch it. I know I don't need to say that, but I feel better saying it anyway. |
Agent Coulson: |
This was the eighth hammerfall. Soon the Worthy will all be present and accounted for. It won't be long before we see the Serpent. |
Deploy 1[]
Screen Text[]
Let's find that hammer. We'll start with an Asgardian search party. Valkyrie?
Start[]
Tony Stark: |
Valkyrie, we know there's been a hammerfall in the city. Can you saddle up Aragorn and see if you can locate it? |
Valkyrie: |
Of course. And before you remind me--no, I will not touch it. I have no wish to be sullied by Cul's magic. |
Complete[]
Valkyrie: |
I cannot find it. Has the Circle of 8 the power to hide them, save from those who are destined to pick them up? |
Tony Stark: |
Interesting question. We don't know. |
Deploy 2[]
Screen Text[]
Send a hero to see what the Kingpin is doing. We have a feeling he's more involved in this than he's letting on.
Start[]
Agent Coulson: |
If the Kingpin was trying to control the sextant before, what's to say he's not still trying to influence things now? We'd better see what he's up to. |
Complete[]
Agent Coulson: |
He's laying low. Staying out of the limelight for now... but that won't last. |
Deploy 3[]
Screen Text[]
Magik is going to try a little planar hopscotch to see if it's easier to find the Worthy by looking from other realms.
Start[]
Magik: |
Stark, I have an idea about searching for the Worthy.
I might be able to see them better by looking for the traces they leave in other realms. |
Tony Stark: |
Give it a try. |
Complete[]
Magik: |
It didn't work. But I did learn that there are a lot of very interested observers in the demonic realms. |
Tony Stark: |
We learned that much in London. |
Magik: |
When the Serpent appears, we'd better be ready for them to try to take advantage. |

Tony Stark: |
That's Shockwave. The Circle of 8 got his old pal Razor Fist in London, and now they got him, too. |
Deploy 5[]
Screen Text[]
A double Circle of 8 killing. We need to confirm and identify quickly, since the Sinister Six are operating in the area.
Start[]
Tony Stark: |
The Circle of 8 is at it again. This time there are two bodies to identify. The cops can't hang around too long because of the danger from the Sinister Six. |
Complete[]
Tony Stark: |
I'll be damned. It's Armless Tiger Man. He got out of the underworld just to end up fodder for the Circle of 8.
And Lady Octopus, too. One with no arms, and one with too many. |
Maria Hill: |
Have a little respect. |

The Sinister Six try to show Sandman the error of his ways.

Sandman. Have you betrayed us? You know what penalties await the disloyal. | Dr. Octopus: |
We all have a ssscore to sssettle with you. | Lizard: |
Sandman: |
I told you once, I'll tell you again. I'm out of the life. |
Then the life will be out of you! | Mysterio: |
Sandman: |
Guess I set myself up for that one. You all six going to gang up on me? |
You never whined about the odds when they were in your favor. | Electro: |
Sandman: |
Jeez, this is what I get for going straight. |
Moon Knight: |
You won't have to fight them alone. |
Daredevil: |
Three against six? I like these odds just fine. |
Sandman: |
See that, Ock? This is what it's like to have friends. |
Moon Knight: |
Let's not get carried away. |

A most interesting trophy he will make. Sandman in a bottle... | Kraven: |

Sandman: |
I'm not scared of you guys. Now I got friends. |
Complete[]
Sandman: |
Hey, so this is what it's like to feel heroic? Not bad. |
Moon Knight: |
Like I said, don't get carried away. Without me and Blind Justice here, you'd be blowing down the street. |
Sandman: |
And here I thought the good guys were all supportive and stuff. |
Daredevil: |
Your mistake is assuming Moon Knight's a good guy. |
Sandman: |
Oh, right, he's one of those anti-hero types. I can't keep it all straight. |
MiniBoss - Absorbing Man[]
Reveal[]
Agent Coulson: |
There's Absorbing Man. Hogun, are you close enough to engage? |
Hogun: |
Yes. I am. |
Start[]
Outta my way, ponytail. One of those hammers is gonna be mine. | Absorbing Man: |
Hogun: |
The hammers choose who will wield them. |
I'm not too good at letting other people choose things. But I am gonna let you choose to walk away. | Absorbing Man: |
Hogun: |
That is not my choice. |
Lose[]
You can't beat Crusher Creel! | Absorbing Man: |
Repeat[]
I'm telling you, back off. I'm gonna have a hammer and if I have to kill you to get it, that's just fine. | Absorbing Man: |
Complete[]
Hogun: |
Absorbing Man will not possess a hammer. |
Tony Stark: |
Keep hunting, Hogun. If you find the Serpent -- and I don't think you will, I'm just saying -- let us know before you do anything. |
Hogun: |
The situation will dictate my response. |
MiniBoss - Blob[]
Reveal[]
Tony Stark: |
Another lunkhead hunting a hammer. Blob this time. Knowing him, he'd try to eat it. |
Maria Hill: |
Or it would make him so dense he'd sink into the center of the Earth. |
Tony Stark: |
That is a superb idea for a controlled experiment, Hill. When we have headed off the destruction of the Earth and everything we care about, I'll design it. |
Nick Fury: |
The Blob, people. Hogun is going to need some backup. |
Start[]
You gonna tell me I can't have a hammer? | Blob: |
Hogun: |
Yes. |
Then I'm gonna tell you you're gonna die! | Blob: |
Lose[]
Huh huh huh. You just keep bouncing off me and it don't hurt a bit. | Blob: |
Repeat[]
Where'd that hammer fall--oh. You again. | Blob: |
Complete[]
All right. I give. Didn't want the hammer anyway. | Blob: |
Agent Coulson: |
Hogun, you're clear to move on. What do we do with the Blob if he won't move? |
Tony Stark: |
Wait for him to fall asleep, I guess. |
Boss - Executioner[]
Reveal[]
Hogun: |
Skurge. |
Tony Stark: |
Uh oh. He looking to trade his axe for a hammer? |
Agent Coulson: |
I'm not sure Asgardians get to be Worthy. None of them so far have been. |
Tony Stark: |
Pretty small sample size. Plus there's at least one we don't know about. We've got eight hammerfalls and only five known Worthy. |
Maria Hill: |
Wish we knew if anyone had found the other hammers. Or where they fell. |
Tony Stark: |
Focus on the one we know about. It's here, and maybe nobody has it yet. We sure don't want Skurge to get it. |
Start[]
Hogun: |
I have hunted the Serpent throughout the Nine Realms. If he is here, you would do well to choose another place to stand than between me and him. |
Many words for you, Hogun the Grim. But all meaningless. I yield to no one. | Executioner: |
Hogun: |
If you continue to hunt a hammer, you will yield to me. |
I need no hammer. I have the Bloodaxe, and by it alone I judge my worth. | Executioner: |
Lose[]
The Serpent's power strengthens my arm! | Executioner: |
Repeat[]
You throw yourself against an unbreakable wall. | Executioner: |
Complete[]
Hogun: |
Skurge cried out in a fury and slashed open a pathway with the Bloodaxe. He is gone. |
Tony Stark: |
What was he mad about? Still waiting for the Enchantress to return his calls? |
Hogun: |
I fear it had something to do with the fallen hammer. It was as if he had heard or felt something.
In any case, he is gone. I do not know where. I will hunt the Serpent still. |
Mission Complete[]
Tony Stark: |
The good news is we located the hammerfall site. The bad news is someone got to the hammer before we found it. |
Agent Coulson: |
Hogun was right. Skurge must have sensed it. |
Nick Fury: |
Who got it? That's what we need to know. |
Agent Coulson: |
No witnesses have come forward. We'll need to do a complete roll call of all S.H.I.E.L.D. assets. It's going to take a while. |
Nick Fury: |
Get on it. |
Agent Coulson: |
Already started, Boss. Also -- |
Nick Fury: |
Sweet Christmas. |
Humans of Midgard. | Cul Borson: |
Hogun: |
Cul! He lives again. |

Hardly, Simon. I am here for you, of course. And I have brought someone near and dear to both of us. | Baron Zemo: |
How's it hanging, bro? | Grim Reaper: |
Wonder Man: |
What's your angle, Zemo? If you're trying to turn my brother against me, you're a little late to the party. |

The Faux-Vengers have split into two teams. Bowman and Militant are overseeing a construction project here. |
Maria Hill: |
Can we tell what they're building? |

It has a lot of antennas and lenses. Given HYDRA's recent interest, my guess is they're trying to detect Incursions. |

We'll take care of the Hand soon enough. This is bigger. Much bigger. That's all you need to know. | Militant: |
Oh, and one more thing. HYDRA has infiltrated every level of your government, T'Challa. Now we're ready to take charge. | Bowman: |
Lose[]
You're overmatched. Hail HYDRA! | Militant: |
Repeat[]
Black Panther wants to start the party again. | Bowman: |
Complete[]
Black Panther: |
Remove the prisoners and destroy the machinery. I have to keep moving. |
MiniBoss - Hammer[]
Reveal[]
Tony Stark: |
A pair of Faux-Vengers. Hammer and Tactical Force.
Do me a favor, T'Challa. Go especially hard on Tactical Force. I hate copycats. Plus his name is stupid. |
Black Panther: |
I'll see if I can spare some time to humor your vendettas, Stark. |
Tony Stark: |
That's why the people of Wakanda love him. He cares. |
Start[]
Black Panther: |
Set down your weapons and justice will take its course. |
I answer to no justice but mine own will! | Hammer: |
I wouldn't put it exactly like that, but yeah. What he said. | Tactical Force: |
Black Panther: |
Tony Stark asked me to give you a little message, Tactical Force. |
Let me guess. Is he still whining because my armor looks better than his?
Never mind, don't answer. I'll ask him myself when we take down the Helicarrier. |
Tactical Force: |
Lose[]
Less a panther, and more a pussycat, perhaps. | Hammer: |
Repeat[]
The king can't get used to the idea that he's been deposed. | Tactical Force: |
Complete[]
Tony Stark: |
Take down the Helicarrier. Ha. Those guys are delusional. |
Black Panther: |
Coulson. Make prisoners of the survivors and then destroy this base. |
Agent Coulson: |
We're on our way. |
Tony Stark: |
Are we being a little hasty with this blowing things up? A little forensics and analysis might be useful. |
Nick Fury: |
It's T'Challa's show, Stark. |
Boss - Viper[]
Reveal[]
Agent Coulson: |
We have locked in on the Viper's base. It appears to be well protected. |
Black Panther: |
I will lead. Gather your support team. |
Tony Stark: |
Agent, you heard the king. Time to cut some heads off HYDRA. |
Start[]
Black Panther: |
That will become true only when you carve it on my tombstone. |
I hadn't thought of that, but it's an excellent idea. | Viper: |
In-Fight[]
Black Panther: |
You did not construct this base just to stage attacks on the Hand. I recognize this machinery. You're still trying to control Incursions. |
If dominating one Earth is good, dominating more is better. We will discover them all, and choose the one that will survive.
HYDRA is reunited behind this common purpose. Hail HYDRA! |
Viper: |
Lose[]
And so to world domination. Or should I say "worlds" domination? | Viper: |
Repeat[]
Incursions are an opportunity, T'Challa. If you will not seize it, make way for those who will. | Viper: |
Complete[]
Black Panther: |
Destroy this base and everything in it. |
Agent Coulson: |
Understood. |
Tony Stark: |
Wait a sec. Shouldn't we maybe take a look at the HYDRA tech first? |
Black Panther: |
It is all pirated from Wakandan designs. I must root out the spy. |
Tony Stark: |
Care to share your swell Wakandan designs? |
Black Panther: |
Once the HYDRA threat is neutralized, we will discuss it. |
Mission Complete[]
Tony Stark: |
Sharing time! |
Nick Fury: |
This war between HYDRA and the Hand needs close attention. HYDRA knows a lot about Incursions. |
Maria Hill: |
Both the Hand and HYDRA will want to tilt events their way, and if one of them eliminates the other, the survivor will be that much stronger. |
Tony Stark: |
Keep me posted on all that. I'll be in the lab. |
