New Avengers – Secrets & Lies | Comics

Captain America recruits an ally into New Avengers team to find a connection between Hydra and Silver Samurai.

On the night of a prison break at Raft, Matt Murdock was on board with a group of fellow superheroes to contain a massive breakout. All of them have been banded together by Captain America into a team except Murdock, who refuses to join his New Avengers because of his secret identity of being Daredevil was made public lately.

Now that forty two super-powered criminals are free again, Cap is busy making rounds to catch them up one by one. He came to Murdock to talk about Keniuchio Harada AKA Silver Samurai, who was a prisoner that escaped Raft that night. Harada was likely to be assisted by The Hand but he believes it was most probably Clan Yashida.

Aside from Daredevil, only Wolverine knows about Japanese underworld and he is currently not available, therefore they need him right now. Matt explains that federal government is on his tail and he can come under fire for even knowing him but Cap then pointed out about the time when he became "Nomad" and represented no one else.

Matt then suggests him of someone that has every training and knowledge he has about Clan Yashida and The Hand. Steve Rogers meets this person to debrief their mission to locate Harada, learn his plans and their rule of no killing. Next day, a black suit wearing ninja goes beating up Clan Yashida thugs in Japan for information.

The mysterious ninja then finds a way to a secret fortress of Clan Yashida to see Harada being approached by Hand shortly before he is greeted by Viper AKA Madame Hydra but had to run abruptly when some Hand ninjas sneaked up. Making a break for it, the ninja made it to Stark Enterprises building, unaware of being followed by Hand.

Aside from Cap, no one among New Avengers team has known this guy and before they could catch a break, they came under attack from a swarm of Hand ninjas. Captain America, Iron Man, Luke Cage, Spider-Man and Spider-Woman get engaged with this group momentarily who came following their contact in Japan that Murdock sent.

Keniuchio is brought to Japan to take lead of The Hand in rise of a twisted Hydra and corrupted S.H.I.E.L.D. They are interrupted by a ninja who came to warn about an intruder that they engaged and followed thinking they have ties to American heroes but are ordered to retreat and soon, they all withdraw from fighting the Avengers.

Spidey notices that Jessica is missing and she actually flew to Fortress Yashida only to come across Viper. They have an argument over a deal made earlier to give her powers and then she tells Spider-Woman to hit her with a Venom Blast since her friends are right behind her in a Quinjet and she obliges this time without a hesitation.

Cap orders Silver Samurai and his associates to stand down but Harada asks if he is aware that his government abducted him to put in Raft without trials. They decide to sort things out by Keniuchio unleashing his sword on his associate group of Hand ninjas and Iron Man using a massive concussion blast to knock off all of them.

New Avengers team eventually leaves with Viper with them since she is a wanted terrorist and Jessica Drew attempts to release Madame Hydra mid-flight but accidentally Cap fell out as well and she immediately jumped to catch him. Their mysterious ninja friend reveals who is behind that mask and Cap confronts Jessica about her motives.

The Walking Dead – The Heart's Desire | Comics

While Rick and his group was facing a new threat by Dexter and his other fellow inmates at the prison, a Walker horde starts entering the prison yards for Andrew forgetting to lock the door. This forced all of the survivors to take a stand against the army of the undead corpses. To move an absolute obstacle from the way of a possible future dispute, Rick intentionally shoots Dexter in the middle of the ensuing chaos, which Tyreese saw but remained silent about it. In the aftermath of the fight, Axel made up with the team and Andrew ran off towards the massive horde outside.

Meanwhile, Otis is attacked by a group of Walkers outside the prison while approaching to the compound but a mysterious woman helps Otis fight the Zombies back with her katana. Introducing Michonne, a katana wielding lone femme fatale survivor of this dead world with two chained up crippled zombies tagged along with her. Otis and Michonne reach the prison gates but she is only allowed inside after she surrendered her weapon to Rick and beheads her pet walkers.

Glenn and Maggie were working on slowly taking out roaming Walkers around the fences to clear out the area. During the cleanup of the prison blocks, Allen got bitten in his leg and Rick immediately amputates the limb to stop spreading the infection but he dies anyway after some time. Otis chastises Patricia for her siding with the homicidal inmate earlier, which was responsible for the death of two of Harshel's children.

As Carol and Tyreese were in the gym, Michonne enters there to lift weights and even recognizes him from his NFL days. This made Carol slightly upset and she leaves. Later, Michonne seduces Tyreese and gave him oral sex, which caused a break-up between Carol Peletier and him, followed by a mental breakdown that led her to suicidal attempt. Rick entirely blames Tyreese for this mess and they got into a heated argument.

This argument quickly turned into a fight and Tyreese got the upper hand in the brawl. He questions Rick's sanity, causing him to step back as the leader of the survivors' group. Still, considering his contribution to the group's survival, they chose to make him one of the "co-leaders" of the group alongside Dale and Hershel. Andrea finds Michonne talking to an imaginary person which made no sense to her.
