Avengers / Iron Man: Force Works #[nn]

In "Deathblow," Century, Scarlet Witch, and U.S. Agent venture into another dimension to halt a Scatter invasion of Earth, while Iron Man and Spider-Woman hold the line in Houston against the advancing Scatter forces. The stakes rise as the team splits to confront threats across realms, testing their limits in a battle that could reshape reality.

In "Ignition," Force Works respond to a distress call and fly into the Baltic nation of Slorenia—only to have their Hex-Ship brought down and face a mysterious, powerful foe known as Ember.

In "Conflagration," Force Works confronts the moral gray zones of conflict in Slorenia as they track down Ember, only to learn his true identity and the reasons behind his rebellion. As the Black Brigade arrives to clash with them, Ember’s fate hangs in the balance, while the Recorder subtly manipulates PLATO, erasing urgent crisis alerts from its memory.

In "Breakdown," Spider-Woman storms into the VR Holosuite when a level 9 program goes awry, trapping Rachel and Fisher inside as Scatter holograms close in. Tensions flare as she confronts Fisher, blaming him for putting her daughter in harm’s way—her fury cutting through the digital chaos with sharp, personal stakes.

In "Goodbye Hong Kong," Force Works races to defend Stark Industries in Hong Kong after it comes under attack by the Mandarin's Avatars—just as Iron Man, missing since his clash with War Machine, is secretly held captive in a Chinese dungeon alongside the unmasked War Machine. As the team battles the Avatars, Century suddenly vanishes and reappears in the underground cell, only to be caught in a devastating blast from the Mandarin, shielding War Machine with his body.

In "Heart of Darkness," Tony Stark finds himself defenseless against the Mandarin, only to be saved by the sudden arrival of the Scarlet Witch, who unleashes a devastating blast of energy that buries their enemy under rubble. With the Mandarin still a threat, USAgent and Spider-Woman push through waves of Avatars to join Wanda and Tony, forming a desperate alliance to survive the onslaught. Meanwhile, Rhodey and Century coordinate a risky strike with Chu Lo Yan, setting the stage for a high-stakes counterattack.

In "Dreamtime," the Force Works arrive in the remote Australian town of Kagoona to find it overrun by psychic monsters, only to be aided by Dreamguard—a local Aboriginal cop by day, guardian of ancient dreams by night. As they trace the creatures to a forbidden tribal territory, the team uncovers a haunting link to a drunken local villain whose reckless journey into sacred ground awakened something far older and more dangerous than they imagined. When a monstrous skeleton suddenly rises from the desert, the line between dream and nightmare blurs.

In "Memorial," the Force Works team gathers to honor Wonder Man, but amid the somber atmosphere, Amanda Chaney reaches out to Century for a quiet conversation. As they talk, Century shares fragments of his past—his fractured memories and the shifting identities that shape who he is.

In "Orphan," the Force Works team faces an unexpected enemy: an alien A.I. named Orphan, who manipulates the dreams of the villain Shane Mundy to launch attacks, blind to the difference between right and wrong. As the truth unfolds, Orphan confronts the reality of Mundy’s nature, leading to a turning point that reshapes the situation. Dreamguard steps in, offering to guide Orphan and help it learn what it means to be part of Earth.

In "Red Heat," Force Works return to Slorenia to uncover the truth behind the Slorene government's escalating crimes, splitting up to tackle the crisis from multiple angles. While Tony and Julia handle a high-stakes reception, Wanda and Jack go undercover to meet Dr. Irena Renko, who reveals a terrifying secret: genetically engineered Targoth are systematically hunting down the Dudak people. Meanwhile, Spider-Woman moves through the shadows, only to face a powerful enemy in the form of the super-powered Volkvhy—just as Century is felled by the mysterious Recorder.

In "Green Fire!", Iron Man faces off against the Black Brigade, dismantling their armor with precision, while Spider-Woman is targeted by Volkvhy’s draining powers. As chaos unfolds, Ember bursts in with a fury of fire and fury, and Century, regaining his senses, uncovers the Recorder’s betrayal—his unconsciousness was no accident, but a deliberate act to savor the team’s suffering. With the Recorder’s schemes exposed, Century rushes to the surface, arriving just in time to confront the enraged Ember and protect his teammates.

In "War Crimes," the Vault's security is breached when the Kree Starstealth stage a breakout, drawing in Force Works to help contain the chaos. When the Recorder is revealed as the instigator, Iron Man and Century move swiftly to restore order—only for the Avengers to arrive and uncover a far more complicated situation: four Kree inmates have vanished, and a group of Skrulls, accompanied by two Quo Vadis aliens, claim they’ve already made a deal with the Avengers to bring the fugitives to an intergalactic war-crimes tribunal. Force Works aren’t pleased.

In "The Fires of Sunrise," the Avengers/Force Works team splits in two: one half races to capture escaped Kree Starstealth criminals, only to be overwhelmed by their newly weaponized armor and forced to retreat after Iron Man, Hercules, and Quicksilver are downed. Meanwhile, the other half attempts to negotiate the Kree’s extradition from a Skrull ship—until the Recorder escapes custody, hijacks the vessel, and teleports the Kree aboard to launch a surprise assault. With chaos erupting on all fronts, Wanda must find a way to stop the Recorder before the situation spirals beyond control.

In "Lost & Found," a mysterious spaceship looms over Ventura, drawing U.S.Agent back to Force Works HQ just as the Broker’s alien captors seize his teammates—except Century—and all support staff, including Rachel. With the Broker demanding Century in exchange for their freedom, U.S.Agent must decide how far he’ll go to save his team, unaware that Century’s connection to the aliens holds the key to breaking their control.
