In "Who Is Scorpio?", Nick Fury traces a deadly conspiracy from a hidden island fortress to the streets of San Francisco, where comic Flip Mason flees his debts, and Kansas City, where racketeer Mitch Hackett awaits his fate. With a mysterious Scorpio symbol as his only clue, Fury races across the country—from a high-stakes race in Monza to a secret Nevada test site—uncovering a web of deception tied to a man with a tattoo and a vendetta. As the pieces fall into place, a mobster’s mistaken identity sets off a chain reaction that ends in fire, leaving Fury to wonder who the real enemy is.

In the remote Pacific, Nick Fury and Jimmy Woo crash-land on a volcanic island that’s become a twisted Eden—home to a reclusive scientist’s secret lab and a menagerie of resurrected and alien life. With the help of a film crew and their robotic gorilla prop, Fury must stop Centurius from unleashing a fiery apocalypse, all while navigating a world where nature and science have gone dangerously awry.

O'Flynn (cameo, in Fury's dream)Vaengr (introduction, alien, in Fury's dream)

In "Today Earth Died!", Nick Fury’s quiet moment in his office is shattered by a call from Val about a UFO landing in mid-town Manhattan. As crowds gather to witness the arrival of the alien Vaengr, who offers the Prism of Miracles to end all human suffering, Fury, Val, and Dugan investigate the craft—only to uncover a terrifying deception. When Vaengr reveals his true, monstrous form and reduces Val and Dugan to ash, Fury is jolted awake by Dugan, who reports a real UFO sighting just in time.
