Cable has survived the effects of the deadly techno-organic virus inside of his body in the aftermath of “Second Coming” and reaches to an apocalyptic future where he learns from his mentor and ally Blaquesmith that, The Avengers will be responsible for the death of his daughter Hope Summers. So, with only 24 hours to live, he returns from the future with a plan to take down The Avengers, one by one. He first kidnapped the Falcon from the battlefield while the team was dealing with the Lethal Legion, which promptly led him to conflict with Captain America who followed Cable to his hideout and the latter managed to capture him after a brief fight.

He soon is attacked by Cable with Stark Technologies from the future timeline and eventually is subdued as the latter has managed to override the defense system in Iron Man’s armor. Next up, the new powerhouse member of The Avengers known as Red Hulk shows up and another fierce battle ensues where Cable managed to take down the powerful Red Hulk. Upon defeating Rulk using the lethal techno-organic virus in his system, Nathan is approached by X-Men's Cyclops and Hope Summers, sent by his mentor. Before he could respond to them Spider-Man and Wolverine arrives to the scene as the last standing Avengers.

Fear Itself | Comics
The Red Skull and his followers performed a ritual of blood-sacrifice decades ago, during World War II, to resurrect the Asgardian god of fear, The Serpent. His ritual caused the Hammer of Skadi to fall on Earth but even after locating the hammer, he was unable to lift it. In recent days Red Skull's daughter Sin finds it and becomes The Skadi, Herald of the Serpent upon lifting it. The Serpent is freed from his underwater imprisonment and seven divine hammers falls on Earth's various locations. Tony Stark offers help from his company, Stark Resilient to re-construct Asgard, after the demolition caused in "Siege" but on Serpent's return, Odin draws back his men from Earth.

The Serpent actually is Odin's brother Cul, who was defeated by him ages ago for his corrupt rule after their father's death. Soon those seven divine hammers come into contact with the villain Absorbing Man, Attuma, Grey Gargoyle, Hulk, Juggernaut, Titania and The Thing of the Fantastic Four, turning them into Serpent's generals. With the newly gained divine power and in its mystic influence, they start creating havoc around the globe on behalf of their Dark Master. The Avengers and Thor opposes The Skadi and the other generals of The Serpent with everything they got but even after everyone’s best effort, The Serpent is not stalled a bit. Spider-Man, Black Widow, Iron Fist, Wolverine, Ms. Marvel, Hawkeye, Red She-Hulk and Doctor Strange are assembled to make a final stand against The Serpent and his generals.

Avengers – The Children's Crusade | Comics

As young hero Wiccan see his powers growing rapidly, he must find out where Scarlet Witch is to get help.

Debuting at a time when The Avengers were fallen and scattered, a young group of heroes decided to take mantle of their icons and become Young Avengers, formed by Hawkeye, Hulkling, Patriot, Speed, Stature, Vision and Wiccan. Together they fought Kang the Conqueror, in Civil War, Secret Invasion and during Siege of Asgard.

As they were taking on racial zealot group Sons of the Serpent, one of their members shot Hulkling. When Captain America, Iron Man and Ms. Marvel reach there, one terrorist threatens them all with a nuclear weapon strapped to his back. To protect his boyfriend, Billy Kaplan sets off a power surge, rendering all Serpent members comatose.

Given Billy have no idea of what he just did; The Avengers suggest that he stays with them as they do not want to deal with another Scarlet Witch situation and explained how Wanda Maximoff went crazy after losing her twin sons. Surprised by this revelation, Wiccan concludes that he and Speed are likely to be her lost siblings.

Also, he is frustrated that his idols never even bothered to investigate whether or not she was truly responsible and leaves. However, Cap beat him to home and convinced his parents to let him stay with The Avengers. On their way, Hulkling showed up insisting to stay by his side since they are partners and Captain America simply agrees.

In their two-bed room in Avengers Tower, Teddy Altman tries to convince Billy Kaplan to agree to let The Avengers test his power and rest of their Young Avengers teammates arrive to rescue him just then. Although he is flattered to see his friends care for him, Billy requests them to put him back in or else he will be hounded once again.

Stature suggests that they try to find Scarlet Witch instead so she knows that that her kids are alive and may be able to reverse her actions, possibly bringing her father back to life. Agreeing to her point, Magneto arrives out of nowhere to meet his grandsons and seek help from them to find his daughter as they are the only links to her.

When he attempted to take them to Wundagore Mountain in Transia, Patriot and rest of their team opposes only to be intervened by New Avengers. Wiccan tries to reason with them seeing Magneto and Wolverine quickly getting into a heated battle but when no one was ready to listen to him, he teleports all of his friends to Transia.

Patriot is upset at Billy as he has now made them all fugitives but Hawkeye states that they should stick together as a team. They start looking for clues at the grave of Magneto's former wife Magda and as soon as Wiccan begin to pick a trail of Wanda Maximoff, Speed races to nearby village area and ran into his uncle, Quicksilver.

What he does next is to race back at his father and starts throwing stakes at him, one of which impales a woman who looks like Wanda. It turns out to be a Doombot and everyone assumes that Doctor Doom has kept her a prisoner all along. Magneto believes that they couldn't find her until now probably because of Doom's powerful magic.

Meanwhile, The Avengers called in former member Wonder Man to help them find Wanda but he is not willing to help seeing Logan being too eager to kill her. After a heated exchange, He punched Wolverine down a level and he leaves to find her. Unwilling to help them find her or rejoin their ranks, Simon leaves briefly to find her as well.

Magneto suggests that they all invade Castle Doom but Patriot and Quicksilver opposes this idea of starting a war. Billy proposes to do a recon using magic and tries to do so at night even after everyone was against this idea. He eventually visits Latveria alone in a disguise but his cover is blown off by Wanda, who is betrothed to Doom.

Soon as they mentioned him, Doctor Doom appears and despite his belief, Wanda Maximoff was seemingly living here on her own free will. After knocking Wiccan out, Doom asks her to get married the next day. Outside of his castle, Magneto was making plans with Quicksilver and Young Avengers to storm his stronghold somehow.

Doom heals up Billy and relieves him off his powers as he explains how she came to him earlier seeking help. Before Magneto and his allies could lead an assault, The Avengers and Wonder Man arrive there. Curious to know about her past as Scarlet Witch and seeing Victor behaving differently, Wanda showed him out in her wedding dress.

When stepped outside, they see heroes are surrounded by an army of Doombots as they are trying to fight against Doom. Amidst this chaos, Wolverine sneaks up on Wanda and attempted to gut her down for what she did to millions of mutants before getting blasted off by Iron Lad, who has returned back from future to save Wiccan.

When things get heated up, he escapes into timestream with his friends and got back to the day Jack of Hearts blew up Avengers Mansion. They see Scott Lang AKA Ant-Man and they were able to save him before Jack explodes inevitably. Somehow they all return to present time and apparently Wanda Maximoff remembers everything now.

Regaining her powers, she conjures up a fleet of Kree ships and Ultron robots to attack her but her sons managed to calm her down. Beast, Hawkeye and Jessica Jones arrives to witness her reappearance and informs The Avengers. Young Avengers are worried that Logan is not ready to give her a second chance and intends to kill her.

Beast proposes that if she could restore powers of all depowered mutants who volunteers and they contacts X-Factor. Rictor agrees to be a guinea pig despite refusal from Madrox and even got his powers back. She intends to do that to all mutants who wants their power back and they all notices that X-Men are already here to get her.

A fight breaks down when The Avengers came to take custody of her and Wanda decides to seek help from Dr. Doom. She uses her godlike powers to access Life Force to undo her mistakes with help from her betrothed and Wiccan. Victor Von Doom stole her power to become omnipotent and gets opposed by all heroes.

Avengers – The Children's Crusade (Softcover)

Avengers – The Children's Crusade (Hardcover)

Set in motion following "Avengers Disassembled" event, Marvel Comics has been planning "The Children's Crusade" with writer Allan Heinberg (Young Avengers – Family Matters, Young Avengers – Sidekicks) and artist Jim Cheung (Astonishing X-Men – Life of X, Avengers & X-Men – Axis) on board long before it was published in 2012.

Though Young Avengers have been there during some recent major crossovers, they never had a definitive event of their own. In quest for Scarlet Witch, who disappeared after altering reality during "House of M" and then depowering millions of mutants in a whim, Speed and Wiccan has found their believed mother and reunited with her.

After a newly reformed Magneto learns of these two from Dr. Nemesis, he approached Cyclops to know more about them. Wolverine warns him to stay away from those kids before walking away but Erik Lehnsherr paid them a visit anyway. Following a tussle with The Avengers, he even managed to enlist their help in finding his daughter.

Tension among Maximoff family has been an all time high; especially between Magneto and Quicksilver, considering the former tried to kill the latter last time they met. Victor Von Doom coming out as real culprit behind falling of Avengers by manipulating Wanda from very beginning was a real surprise and so was return of Ant-Man.

Doctor Doom ascending to godhood and becoming even more powerful than he was before by stealing Beyonder's power before in "Secret Wars" was a predictable threat. In a way, "The Children's Crusade" has paved paths for "Avengers Vs. X-Men" event with a brief yet intense skirmish within two super-hero teams, which took place afterwards.

The part of the land that Hulk and his Gamma-Powered Family now owns is now called the "Hulkland", where lives the former X-Man and a man who used to be known as the most dangerous man on Earth; Logan, or better known as Wolverine.

Final Grudge Match
After delivering the ground breaking "Enemy of the State" storyline, fan-favorite writer Mark Miller (Kick-Ass, Reborn) has returned with another another bang; an eight part futuristic storyline "Old Man Logan", that is set on an alternate timeline. The story ran from issue #66-72 of the third volume of monthly ongoing Wolverine comic-book series, plus, a ‘Giant-Size Old Man Logan’ issue from Marvel Comics was released in 2008. Artist Steve McNiven (Civil War, New Avengers) served as the penciller for this story and the late Michael Turner did a variant cover for the arc. This storyline is a primary source of inspiration for the third live-action solo Wolverine film, Logan (2017) except for the rest of the landscape than his personality. Also, following "Death of Wolverine", Marvel has brought Old Man Logan to their regular continuity after the incursion of Multiverse, which caused "Secret Wars" and he joined X-Men's ranks again in "Extraordinary X-Men – X-Haven".
