Avengers Epic Collection #13

In "Who's That Lady?", Lt. Monica Rambeau of the New Orleans harbor patrol steps into a storm when her grandfather’s friend, Andre LeClare, is drawn into a deadly scheme involving a weaponized experiment at an offshore oil rig. After the explosion grants her powerful energy abilities, she leaves her old life behind to become Captain Marvel—only to find her new powers are dangerously unstable. Seeking help, she journeys to the Baxter Building, only to find Mr. Fantastic away, and turns instead to Avengers Mansion, where Iron Man may be able to help her control the energy building within.

In "Trial and Error!", the Avengers gather to defend Hank Pym against charges of treason, but Iron Man’s absence casts a shadow over the proceedings. As the trial unfolds, the Masters of Evil launch a dramatic intervention—led from behind the scenes by Egghead—hijacking the moment to expose Pym in the most public way possible.

In "Final Curtain!" from Avengers Epic Collection #13, the Avengers race to stop a new threat as the Shocker reveals Egghead’s true role in the latest Masters of Evil scheme—while Hank Pym plays a dangerous game of deception. With Pym trapped in a trap of his own making, the team arrives just in time to see the mastermind’s plan unravel, but not before Hawkeye makes a split-second shot that changes everything. Iron Man remains missing, and the aftermath hangs in the balance.

In "The Last Farewell!", Hank Pym finds redemption as his trial concludes with the charges dropped, clearing his name in both court and the eyes of the Avengers. With peace restored between him and Janet van Dyne, Pym steps away from heroics, passing the Yellowjacket mantle to Captain America and retiring to a quiet life in the Midwest. Meanwhile, Elysius releases Eros of Titan from his vow, marking a quiet end to an old bond.

Excerpt from Fantastic Four #257 captures a quiet yet pivotal moment in the Richards family’s life: after the devastation of the Skrull homeworld at the hands of Galactus, the team grapples with the aftermath. As Franklin recovers from injuries sustained in battle with Annihilus, the Richardses make the bold decision to retreat to the suburbs, seeking normalcy without abandoning their duties as the Fantastic Four. Amid the shift, Sue learns she’s pregnant—adding a new layer of uncertainty and hope to their already fragile balance.
