Trapped in Hell for a lifetime, Johnny Blaze was dying to get out of the grasp of Lucifer and he eventually does that by breaking out of the gate of Hell, only to find out he is still inside. It's like how always the devil tempts him with hope and then takes it away to drive him mad. Realizing this and that he is probably not getting out of this eternal damnation, Johnny starts punching in the ground and discovered a minion named Greexix. He thought the little demon was a spy sent to keep an eye on him but the frightened being revealed to him that he is just a cave-digger who got lost. Soon, Satan's army came and snatches Greexix away while Johnny watches. After he is taken to be tortured according to Satan's order, Ghost Rider came to rescue him and took Greexix back with him.

Since earlier he told the Ghost Rider to rescue him because he can dig him out of here, the little demon led him to a doorway to Earth through water and just as Johnny Blaze promises to take him along, it revealed itself as Lucifer. Johnny ended up on the other side and rises from a sea along with an army of dead who walked into Earth. Johnny hitched a ride from a truck driver named Dixie who drops him to a gas station to freshen up. Lucifer came back to tease him about the fact that he just brought Lucifer on Earth by mistake and after taking a few blows from Ghost Rider, he tricked the family into killing themselves, then left him behind to confront Doctor Strange. Being tricked before by his cunningness, Johnny attacks him thinking him as Lucifer in disguise.

He talked with fellow X-Men member Cyclops and Emma Frost about going after Nitro and in spite of their warning, Logan goes after the villain to avenge the deaths of innocents. Upon deciding that the nature of the blast Nitro produced during the incident was even greater than his regular extent, Wolverine goes on a personal mission to take down the man who is responsible for the infamous Stamford tragedy, which caused the Superhuman Registration Act to be created and the super-human “Civil War” as well.

As soon as he starts digging deep into the mystery in search for Nitro, he finds out disturbing information on the existence of a small group of stalkers who also is looking for the same person and has an encounter with them.

Logan finally apprehends the human bomb but Nitro blew him up and a group of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents to bits. An enraged Wolverine comes after Nitro to interrogate about his secret benefactor. Namor, the Sub-Mariner and his Atlantean royal guards appears to take Nitro for trial.

Civil War | Comics

When the young mutant group of heroes, the New Warriors tried to get higher ratings for their own TV Show by ambushing a few second-string super villains like Cobalt Man, Coldheart, Nitro and Speedfreak, their plan went wrong. The villain Nitro caused an explosion during his escape attempt which killed more than 600 people, among them 60 were confirmed to be children.

This event sparked an anti-mutant hysteria in the aftermath of M-Day and the necessity for superheroes to be kept in check and thus the Super Human Registration Act, which was already being discussed by a few super people earlier, is passed within a week. According to the Act's rule, every super powered person both heroes or villains should reveal their secret identities to the government and to register with them as well.

Captain America was approached by S.H.I.E.L.D. to work with them in support of the Act because of his influence on the community but his quick refusal made him a fugitive of law too and he narrowly escaped his capture at the hands of S.H.I.E.L.D. operatives. Captain America formed the Secret Avengers with Cable, Daredevil, Falcon, Bill Foster, Hercules and Luke Cage, who were opposed to the Registration Act. Iron Man grouped the other super peoples to the Act's support as well as Spider-Man on his side. Upon being convinced by Tony Stark, he even revealed his secret identity in front of public as a support to the Act.

Cap's team is soon joined by Young Avengers, Cloak and Dagger as they occasionally fights S.H.I.E.L.D. "cape-killer" units and other criminals. Tony on the other hand believed that, oversight of heroes is a great idea. Then, along with Mister Fantastic and Hank Pym, he created Prison 42 for captive heroes and villains alike who will not comply with them, located inside the Negative Zone. Peter Parker realized that Tony is monitoring him with his new Iron Spider suit and then took a tour of the Negative Zone; he quickly realized that he joined the wrong side.

He sneak out of Stark Tower with Aunt May and Mary Jane but Iron Man released a few villains on his tail to bring him back. It was the timely intervention of Punisher who saved Spidey and brought him to Cap's secret base. Soon, the whole super human community became split into two teams. A major conflict between the divided heroes occurs and the effect is going to shake the core of everyone’s relation with each other.

Heroes Divided by War

"Civil War" has changed the dynamics of heroes in the whole Marvel Universe from inside out as heroes who previously fought alongside against world-ending threats became each others' opponent. Doctor Strange and the team of X-Men remained mostly neutral during this event, except for Wolverine, who went on a solo mission to take down Nitro himself. The story is later adapted into a live-action film, the third movie of the Captain America trilogy titled "Captain America: Civil War" from Marvel Studios on 2016.
