Plot
In a Hammer Industries facility, Norman Osborn (in his Iron Patriot armor) and the Wild Pack are having a destructive battle with a HYDRA Squad led by an high-tech armored Crossbones, who is planning to take over Justin Hammer’s latest weapons and use them to renew HYDRA after the New Avengers defeated the Red Goblin. The event is being observed by Jacqueline Falsworth, a young Athletic woman from Midtown known by all as an Inhuman with Pyrokinetic powers as well as Endless Speed running abilities. The fight ends disastrously as Norman, enraged by Crossbones’ infamous tauntings, pins him into the facility as the villain is about to set off numerous explosives within his armor, which destroys the entire facility and kills numerous employees including Hammer himself. Right before the blast kills the civilians as well, Jacqueline uses her Speed Power to save every single one of them. As Osborn and his team oversee in horror the tragic result of their failure, Jacqueline comforts some of the surviving victims, including the young daughter of the employees who were caught in the blast, as well as she tearfully laments for having not been fast enough and she is also comforted and forgiven by the survivors.

In the Avengers Tower, the Avengers oversee footage of Oscorp's attempts of protecting innocent civilians which had previously made the situations worse and resulted in collateral damage, including the destruction of the Hammer Industries facility which cost Hammer’s live. The Avengers also see footage of Norman’s transformation into the Green Goblin, which they are disgusted of. The team is approached by Nick Fury, who informs them are he and Commissioner Stacy had convinced the United Nations’ leaders to sign the Superior Leadership Act, a contract which will put Oscorp under greater supervision and direction of the Avengers. Regarding Osborn’s poor leadership which almost gave HYDRA an advantage to cripple America, the Avengers agree, but are confronted in their monitors by Osborn himself, who is reluctant to let the Avengers take over his company and sets this facility with armed units to prevent interference. Captain America attempts to reason with him by claiming that the Avengers are only planning to keep Oscorp from falling apart, but his words fall on deaf ears as Osborn ends the conversation. To make things worse, the Avengers are alerted by S.W.O.R.D. agents of the catastrophic threat of Master Mold, an ancient A.I. designed to lead the Sentinels, which is heading towards Attilan to bring on the extinction of the Inhumans and then, destroy all life on Earth.

The Avengers divide in two teams: one consisting of the founding members, who work alongside the Phoenix Warriors to deal with Osborn, and the other consisting of the expanded members led by Falcon and Captain Marvel, who set out to stop Master Mold. The Avengers with Captain America are also joined by Jacqueline Falsworth, in her newly developed superhero mantle of Spitfire, who is exacting to redeem herself of her failure in Hammer Industries. The expanded members arrive in time at Attilan to help the Inhumans with the Sentinels while the founding Avengers, Spitfire and the Phoenixes confront Osborn and his new Task Force team (consisting on the anti-heroes and villains who were recruited by Truman Marsh to form the Thunderbolts) in an Oscorp Aircraft. While the Iron Legion armors keep the Oscorp Guardsmen occupied, the heroes battle the Thunderbolts. Back in Attilan, while the others battle countless waves of Sentinels and Redwing and Lockjaw escort the civilians to safety, Falcon, Black Bolt, Captain Marvel and Red Hulk battle Master Mold himself as Ant-Man and Vision discuss an idea to shut off the Sentinels at once. Back in Oscorp, just as the Thunderbolts are nearly defeated, Spitfire notices Iron Vulture attempting to use Hyper Bombs to blow himself with Black Widow, Hawkeye, Sun-Hawk and Silver Sable next to him (just like the incident Crossbones caused before), reminding her in horror of the disaster she could not stop in Hammer Industries.

Claiming that she cannot let it happen again, Spitfire quickly subdues and disarms Iron Vulture as she also speeds up as far as she can from New York to make sure the bombs will explode somewhere else, though she is slowly caught by the blast and badly wounded and passes out in Black Widow’s arms after the returning to the battleground. In Attilan, Ant-Man and Vision manage to shrink into Master Mold’s robotic body and mess with his circuits before damaging his core. Right after the two make their way out, Black Bolt finishes Master Mold off with the power of his voice, disabling the remaining Sentinels and saving Attilan. Back in Oscorp, as the defeated Thunderbolts are taken to custody, a dying Spitfire is reanimated and brought back to life in time by Sun-Hawk and Red She-Hulk. As everyone cheers on the Avengers’ victory, Norman, refusing to accept defeat, recovers his armor and takes off to the distance. Through F.R.I.D.A.Y.’s calculations of Norman’s destination trajectories, Iron Man learns that Norman is heading to wherever Spider-Man and Phoenix Princess are and takes off after Osborn, saying: “Hold on, Kid. I’m coming in.”.

"It all concludes in Ultimate Spider-Man."
