“The End of A.I.M.!”

In "The End of A.I.M.!", Nick Fury finds himself in a deadly game of deception when A.I.M. steals an LMD—only to discover it's the real Fury. With the Heli-Carrier on high alert and a trail of clues leading to a hidden base, Fury races to uncover the truth behind a conspiracy that ties "THEM" to HYDRA. Written by Denny O'Neil and Jack Kirby, with art by Kirby and Ogden Whitney, and a striking cover by Jack Kirby and Mike Esposito, this 1966 issue delivers a tense, mystery-driven thriller that redefines the shadow war between SHIELD and its hidden enemies.

A.I.M. agents steal an LMD which turns out to be the real Nick Fury. The Heli-Carrier is on high-alert after Fury's leap and Sitwell plants a tracer on Count Royale as he rushes out. A pair of fleeing A.I.M. agents are met by one of the Secret Empire, which is a branch of "THEM"! The A.I.M. men are gassed unconscious by Gabe Jones working undercover. Jasper trails Royale to A.I.M.'s hidden base just before it explodes. Fury visits SHIELD's Museum for clues on HYDRA and is almost killed by an energy ray. Fury realizes "THEM" and HYDRA are one and the same, and it's up to SHIELD to stop them.
