Uncanny Avengers – Civil War II | Comics

Deadpool risks his status on team. Cable and Steve Rogers face off. The Unity Squad goes against The Hand and a resurrected fallen hero.

An Inhuman precog who predicts the future has the superhero community divided and when he sees that the Hulk is going to kill all Avengers, Bruce Banner is confronted by Avengers Unity Division, Inhumans, S.H.I.E.L.D., Ultimates and X-Men. In an unprecedented event, Hawkeye took it upon himself to shot Banner with an arrow in the head.

Although Deadpool was poking fun at him when they took him to custody, he was surprised to see Clint making such a call. So, he takes on a secret mission to rescue Clint Barton from prison putting his Avengers status on risk. After having a meet up with Kate Bishop and making some arrangement, he breaks into The Cellar to get Barton out.

Taking down a few guards on duty, Wade finds him and though Clint thought he is here to gloat, DP hands him over some cash and a new passport to get a new life on somewhere else. He refuses to run and thanks Deadpool for his efforts anyway.

Captain America is called in to New Attilan by Queen Medusa as the precog Ulysses is having another vision about a member of his Unity Squad. He actually sees Cable waging a war in future and is currently with a bad company. This forces Steve Rogers to confront Nate with law enforcement but he claims to head for a pre-planned vacation.

He meets Rogue in the plane and they are on a quest to find the cure for the poisoning caused by Terrigen Mist. They are accompanied by Sebastian Shaw, former Black King of Hellfire Club and Brotherhood of Evil Mutants member Toad. Wade goes to see Synapse to check on Quicksilver, who broke his leg fighting Ultron earlier.

While some of the closed friends showed up to pay respects to Dr. Banner at his funeral, Doctor Voodoo's brother Daniel Drumm makes a deal with The Hand. Cap asks DeePee about Nate or if he knows anything about what he is up to but he doesn't know a thing. Rogers is worried about his Unity Squad coming under fire for its mutant members.

Meanwhile, Cable and his gang of mutants raids U.S. Army Medical Research Institute to steal their research on Terrigen Mist. He decides to send data to Beast to find a cure for M-Pox but his A.I. Belle suggests that they do it anonymously. They find Deadpool waiting for them in the airfield but got busted to Cap at the last moment anyway.

He knocks off Toad and moves to a fistfight with Shaw before getting back at Cable until Rogue intervenes and breaks the fight. Nate leaves with the research and Rogers disbands Unity Squad for good, firing the mutants and rebukes Wade Wilson for being a disgrace. Rogue tries to argue about that but he simply won't listen to them anymore.

Doctor Voodoo is visited by his thought to be deceased brother Daniel at the Bar With No Doors, who is resurrected by The Hand in exchange for the location of Banner's body. Jericho promptly warns DP and Rogue, who called in Human Torch, Quicksilver, Synapse and Wasp to go to Japan and stop the evil ninja cult from resurrecting Banner.

Voodoo takes the team to Tokyo where they meet Elektra and they smoked one of their nests to invite a whole herd of undead ninjas for a city-wide brawl. With Natchios on their side, they quickly reaches to the place where they kept Bruce but by the time they reached it was too late and like a devastating earthquake, an undead Hulk arrives!

Uncanny Avengers – Civil War II

Marvel Comics
came up with major crossover event Civil War II in 2016 as a sequel to its 2007 predecessor Civil War. Uncanny Avengers series regular writer Gerry Duggan (Arkham Manor, Hawkeye Vs. Deadpool) was roped in to create a tie-in story for the event and depict how it affected the members of the roster as well as their friends.

Artists Pepe Larraz (Fear Itself – The Home Front, New Avengers – Luke Cage) and Ryan Stegman (Scarlet Spider, Wolverine) were in charge of penciller duty. Collecting issues #13-17 of the third ongoing volume of the series, the story begins from the point where Hawkeye shot Banner dead and become an outcast among his team.

No Rest For The Weary

Whatever dreams Steve Rogers had during the time when he assembled human, mutant and even Inhuman heroes to encourage peace and unity following Avengers/X-Men War, is now officially ended when his mutant teammates went outside of law and caught working with known criminals like Sebastian Shaw and Toad.

Early encounter of Avengers Unity Squad with Ultron/Hank Pym hybrid in "The Man Who Fell to Earth" and upcoming adventure in "Red Skull" storyline is perfectly bridged up in the plot before the team is officially disbanded. The Thing of the Fantastic Four and the former herald of Galactus, Silver Surfer showed up in cameo appearance.

Civil War II | Comics

Because of Black Bolt detonating a Terrigen Bomb during the time Thanos came to invade New Attilan looking for his son (Infinity), a new generation of Inhumans called NuHumans is introduced to the world. Among them was Ulysses Cain, a NuHuman with near-accurate precognitive abilities, who prophesied of an upcoming dystopian future. This came in handy when The Avengers successfully stopped an invasion of a Celestial Destructor in Earth, with help from A-Force, Inhumans, The Ultimates and X-Men.

Doctor Strange and the combined effort of the magic wielders were able to send the Celestial back to its own dimension. As the heroes learned about Ulysses at the celebratory party of their victory, Captain Marvel wanted to recruit him to The Ultimates, whereas Iron Man argues over the logic of trying to stop something before it even takes place. However, in an attempt to apprehend Thanos according to Ulysses' visions, Carol Danvers and her team ambushed The Mad Titan, resulting in the death of War Machine and She-Hulk ended up in coma.

An infuriated Tony Stark then kidnaps Ulysses from New Attilan to further study the true nature of his powers, leading Tony into conflict with Medusa, Crystal and Karnak of The Inhumans. When Black Panther deduced that Karnak is about to destroy the Stark Tower in retaliation, the combined force of The Avengers, S.H.I.E.L.D. and The Ultimates rushed to the spot to stop him. As Tony runs tests on him, Ulysses projected another vision regarding The Hulk, as he will go into a rampage and kill The Avengers.

Carol approaches a de-powered Bruce Banner in his secret base to come out and cooperate but Hawkeye shoots him dead with an arrow after Beast confirms of Banner is experimenting to regain his powers. Tony show to Captain America, Captain Marvel and Medusa that Ulysses' visions are actually probabilities of possible future, not absolute truth and he revealed it to the world. Carol still refuses to stop using Ulysses' visions to stop possible world-ending threats.

However, things got a bit escalated when she arrested a citizen named Alison Green, believed to be an agent of Hydra based on a prediction Ulysses made but was unable to prove her of any guilt. When Tony got her out of custody, Carol attempts to arrest Tony Stark and he brought over the team of All-New X-Men and The Avengers to confront her. Then Alpha Flight and Guardians of the Galaxy joins Carol against Tony and then Ulysses has a vision of Miles Morales killing Steve Rogers.

Uncanny Avengers – The Man Who Fell to Earth | Comics

The Uncanny Avengers are up for a Standoff in Pleasant Hill! Hank Pym, original Avenger and creator of Ultron returns!

With completely unexpected help from time-travelling mutant superhero Cable, Avengers Unity Division successfully prevented a dystopian "Lost Future" from happening. Afterwards, Commander Steve Rogers led his team into the fiasco of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Pleasant Hill project created by Kobik, a sentient Cosmic Cube taking form of a young girl.

Information about this was eventually leaked on web and Maria Hill claimed the program being shut down with pieces of it destroyed completely. However, Rogers found this not to be true and his Unity Squad team is called for helping in a manhunt. Jericho is summoned by his deceased brother Daniel Drumm to help him return to the world of living.

Cable, Deadpool, Doctor Voodoo, Rogue and Synapse chased down super-villain Wrecker of the Wrecking Crew, who was trying to make a break for it from Pleasant Hill along with Maria Hill. So, now they all fight back group of S.H.I.E.L.D. operatives who came to take them in and then another Maria Hill arrives in a Quinjet starts shooting at them.

Reality around them starts bending and next day they all wake up as different persons living in Pleasant Hill, Connecticut. Rogue is the first one among them to sense it and wake up rest of her team to get out of this reality-warping super-villain prison. She then assembles rest of her teammates from their reality to form a resistance.

Uncanny Avengers – The Man Who Fell to Earth | Comics

After causing genocide to millions of souls among the stars, long-lost team member of The Avengers; Hank Pym finally returns to Earth. Rogue was the one who stumbled onto him first while she was headed towards saving Soyuz Capsule from crushing. Hank's body was merged with Ultron during their previous battle and was lost to all.

Hank believed that he was forgotten but he was actually thought dead by his friends because of what happened to him. Rogers was busy taking down some extremists in wildlife reserve of La Reserva with Deadpool and she took Hank right there.

Hank Pym claims that he has taken control over his creation when rest of their teammates are gathered at Cap's location. Cable asks him to submit his suit for peer review but he reveals that there is not much organic part left, now that he is a singular being with Ultron. Hank flies off to Avengers Mansion and Cap tells Rogue to keep an eye on him.

For acting weirdly out of his character, Cable, Deadpool, Doctor Voodoo, Human Torch, Quicksilver and Synapse were already pretty skeptical about his credentials from beginning though and then he blows up his own memorial claiming it's a lie since he is still alive. He joins active duty with Unity Squad right from that moment.

His ex-wife Janet van Dyne was informed about his return by Steve earlier and during a mission in subway, Wasp casually joined to welcome Hank back, who is overjoyed to see her and she called him away to have a talk with him. However, she saw through him when Hank missed the Ghostbusters reference or wanted to go to Montauk.

When he walks into the theater, Cable starts pushing Hank with some facts that finally made Ultron reveal his true nature. A blast takes down their entire headquarter along with Cable and Human Torch in it. Janet took him down with an EMP burst to slow him down for a moment when Vision enters the scene to confront his father.

All-New, All-Different Avengers – Family Business | Comics

A "Standoff" at Pleasant Hill between All-New, All-Different Avengers and Uncanny Avengers takes place before a trip to a prison planet!

The Mighty Thor has joined a new assembly of The Avengers earlier while trying to foil a plot by Kang the Conqueror and was separated from Mjolnir shortly, which revert her back to Jane Foster. None of her teammates knew of her identity but now it has been revealed to Sam Wilson, All-New Captain America but he kept it a secret.

He even came to visit her during one of her chemotherapy sessions before heading back to an emergency. Vision tries to make peace with Ms. Marvel and sneaks into her school to talk about their past differences. Iron Man and Thor then heads to apprehend a villain named Night Phantom who was busy fighting Spider-Man, Miles Morales.

Before he is taken down, he asks about "Pleasant Hill" and when Maria Hill of S.H.I.E.L.D. arrives to take over, she completely tries to ignore it until Cap gives them more bad news coming from there. They ride into a Quinjet to reach Connecticut and Hill starts firing at members of Avengers Unity Division upon seeing them with another "Maria Hill".

Cable sends Quicksilver and Rogue to tackle them for this uncalled attack on them that ended up crushing the Quinjet. Still in confusion, both team starts fighting each other as a wall closes in on them that turns out to be a snowdome. Tony and his friends later regain sense in a world where they were not aware of their truer selves at all.

All-New, All-Different Avengers – Family Business | Comics

Soon, inhabitants of Pleasant Hill started to gain their memory and assembled together but the villains also broke free of captivity to attack them. Deadpool decided to reach out to Kobik, a Cosmic Cube fragment that took the form of a human child, who can rewrite reality and made her restore everyone back to how they were before.

Now residing and operating from an abandoned hangar, Avengers seem to come under attack and then revealed to be The Wasp who is not Janet Van Dyne at all. She turns out to be Nadia Pym, estranged daughter of Hank Pym who was raised in Red Room and was studying Pym Particles, which helped her make a break out of there.

She initially went to see her father who deceased earlier in an attempt to stop Ultron and came to meet her father's allies. Though Edwin Jarvis was dismissive about her, he took her to meet her stepmother Jan after she helped Vision from exploding and blowing up everyone by going superthermal as an after-effects of his encounter with Kang.

Nova informs the team about going after his father who he has been looking for ever since he joined the Corps and Tony offers their aid. Together they journeyed through space in an old overdrive unit that is powered by Thor's hammer and guided by Nova's helmet only to arrive at a barren planet that is littered with other wrecked ships.

On arrival, their ship is shot down from a lighthouse-esque tower but they managed to successfully land in time among a crowd of alien refugees. Iron Man and Lady Thor go to investigate the tower when an energy cloud appears out of nowhere to grab any life-form it come across and The Avengers just jumped into it.

Finding herself shacked on the other side; Ms. Marvel tries to break free despite warnings from Nova and Spider-Man only to be crushed down by Annihilus, Lord of the Negative Zone! Vision fared no better under an anti-matter sun of the galactic prison planet with only Goddess of Thunder keeping him from unleashing a Techtronicon cannon.
