When Spider-Man notices Thor’s armor has been repaired, he’s led to a strange machine that transforms him with a burst of dark energy, cloaking him in a new, unfamiliar suit. As the heroes prepare to face their next challenge, Xavier’s urgent message cuts through: Galactus has begun devouring Battleworld.

In a quiet moment shattered by chaos, Iceman is caught between a furious father and a mother’s crushing guilt—only to vanish into 1942, where a gunshot wounds him and a past he never knew unfolds. Awaking in a world where his parents are young and alive, Bobby faces a terrifying truth: his father’s death is not a memory, but a moment he must witness—before it ever happened.

In "The Importance of Being Deadly," Northstar brings Aurora to a psychologist, hoping to understand her fractured identity—only to be drawn into a dangerous web when they visit his friend Raymonde Belmonde at her restaurant.

Meanwhile, Delphine Courtney extends an unexpected invitation to Alec Thorne, hinting at a new mission just as danger closes in.
