Die Rächer #11

Ein Rächer vor Gericht pits the Avengers against a courtroom trial for Hank Pym, accused of treason—only for Iron Man to vanish at a critical moment. As the Masters of Evil, secretly orchestrated by Egghead, stage a dramatic rescue, Pym’s fate hangs in the balance and the team’s unity is tested in the spotlight.

In "Ring frei zur nächsten Runde," the Avengers close in on a new threat as the Shocker reveals Egghead's true role in assembling the Masters of Evil—and in orchestrating Hank Pym's supposed rescue. Pym, playing a dangerous game, has manipulated Egghead into believing he's a loyal ally, setting the stage for a final confrontation just as the team arrives. With Egghead poised to kill Pym, Hawkeye’s arrow halts the moment—only to send the gun flying into an explosion that claims Egghead. But Iron Man remains unaccounted for, leaving the team with more questions than answers.

In "Ein Abschied für immer?", Patricia Starr’s testimony helps clear Hank Pym in a pivotal trial, leading to the dismissal of charges and a formal exoneration in state court. With the Avengers also absolving him of misconduct, Pym reconciles with Janet van Dyne and steps down from superhero duties, passing the Yellowjacket mantle to Captain America before retiring to a quiet life in the Midwest. Meanwhile, Elysius releases Eros of Titan from his vow, marking a quiet but profound shift in their bond.
