Assembled
Follwoing the events of Infinite Thor, Thor is in a Maximum Security Prison. He is in a cell without his hammer, due to it being experimented on. Thor is sitting there, planning how to defeat Mephisto and save Midgard when he got out. Then, someone appears outside the cell. At first, Thor is ready to yell and demand that he is released, but he is then enamored by the woman’s beauty. Thor asks her who she is. The woman says that her name is Jane Foster. Jane says that she believes Thor when he says that Mephisto is coming, and that Earth needs something to defend itself. Jane releases him from the cell, and sneaks him out of the Prison.    Thor is able to magically summon his hammer when outside. He asks Jane if there are any other being with incredible powers on Midgard to help them. Jane says that it’s illegal to work with the X-Men, the Fantastic Four are missing, Daredevil only deals with street thugs, and S.H.I.E.L.D. is never available when they’re needed, so no. Thor says that Mephisto comes in and kills worlds, manipulates souls, and creates death a chaos, leading to Jane Foster saying that he definitely isn’t an avuncular fellow. Suddenly, a man with a blue costume and red cape appears.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Thor asks the man who he is and what he wants. The man says that he is Stephen <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Strange, better known as Dr. Strange. Strange tells Thor that he heard that someone with <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Thor’s power level showed up, and he had to see it himself. Thor asks why it matters to <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Strange, and Strange says that there is a prophecy he fears is coming true. He says that the <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Prophecy says that Dark Days are coming. The Gates to Hell were going to open and Earth will <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">burn. However, a fallen savior would rise and defeat this threat, although he too would burn. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Strange says that he believes Thor is the fallen savior. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">  Thor believes Dr. Strange’s prophecy, as a similar prediction was given in Asgard by <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Volla, a God who can predict the future. Thor believes that this means Mephisto is coming in <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">with a full invasion, and asks Dr. Strange to join him in this fight. Dr. Strange refuses, saying he <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">cannot interfere with the Prophecy, that it has been predicted and must happen. He then <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">teleports back to his domicile the Sanctum Sanctorum, and wishes Thor good luck. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">   Thor then tells Jane to go and prepare the Military for a war. Jane says that she won’t <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">be able to do anything, and General Ross or anyone with that high power won’t do anything <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">until it’s too late and half the world is killed. Jane says that Thor should move, otherwise the <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">army will be after him. Thor says good bye to her, and flies off.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">While Thor is wondering what his next move should be, Hulk careens into Thor. Hulk <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">says that he is finishing Mephisto’s work for him by killing Thor. Hulk appears to have amnesia <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">since the events of Infinite Hulk #1. Thor’s first reaction is to throw the hammer at Hulk, and he <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">threw it so hard it made a kinetic thud. Thor fights Hulk in a long fight, resulting in his armor <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">being torn, his hammer being dented, and his arm being broken in three different places. Thor <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">finally decides he needs to completely take out Hulk, so he picks him up and flies him into <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Earth’s atmosphere. Thor his him with his hammer at full force, and sends Hulk flying to the <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Earth. Hulk lands in the arctic circle, and is unconscious. Thor looks around and sees a frozen <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">body at the vertex of a glacier. Thor gently destroys the glacier, and pulls the man out, who is <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">revealed to be Captain Nazi, a/k/a Steve Rogers.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Steve wakes up on a medical table. Thor is on one side of him, and Jane Foster is on the <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">other side. Steve asks what happened and where Red Skull is at. Jane tells him that he was <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">found frozen in the arctic circle, and that he was under arrest. Steve asks why, and Jane <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">informs him of everything Captain Nazi did during World War II (in the Infinite Origins: Captain America mini-series). Steve attempts to explain that <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">he was brainwashed by the Red Skull and that he was not in control of his actions. Thor looks <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">into Steve’s eyes and says that Steve is telling the truth. Thor asks him what happened where <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">he was frozen, if he had anything experience in battle, and other questions. Steve explains that <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">he was trying to take down Red Skull permanently at his headquarters, and the last thing he <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">remembered was throwing a bomb. Thor convinces Jane to let Steve go for now, since he <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">needed people to help him in the fight against Mephisto.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">The following day, Thor is preparing Steve, who now has a shield painted in the colors of <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">the America flag, and his old army suit before he was sent to infiltrate HYDRA. Steve says that <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">he is ready to fight, and that once this is over, he was willing going to hand himself into custody <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">due to what he did as Captain Nazi. Both of them are then telepathically contacted by Dr. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Strange, who informs them that Mephisto would be there in two hours. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">  Two hours later, Thor and Steve are in the center of New York City, ready for Mephisto <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">and his army to invade. A portal opens in the sky, and demons fly out. They begin breathing <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Hellfire everywhere and attacking building and civilians. Steve handles demons on the ground, <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">while Thor flies up high and is able to take out dozens there. However, demons begin popping <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">up all around the world, making it impossible for Thor and Steve alone to stop it. Suddenly, <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">something that looks like a robot flies out of the portal. Thor attempts to attack it, although it <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">opens up the helmet on its head and reveals a face, showing it is a human. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">  Thor asks the man who he is. The man says that he is Tony Stark, and has been <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">imprisoned in Mephisto’s Realm for ten years. Before he was imprisoned, he was a mogul, the <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">owner of Stark Industries. He was also betrothed to his girlfriend Pepper Potts. But he made a <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">deal with Mephisto which resulted in him being imprisoned for ten years. He was able to <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">gather some metal to build an armor with, and kill demons and harness their energy for power. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">He was able to fabricate an armor and escape with it. Tony then starts attacking and <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">disintegrating the demons.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">After a while of fighting, the three realize they can’t hold off the entire invasion, and <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">that they needed to take out Mephisto to end it. Mephisto then sends his son Blackheart to kill <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">the heroes and lead the invasion, and the demon Zarathos to possess humans. Zarathos <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">possesses the human known as Johnny Blaze. Zarathos then attacks Thor. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">  During all the fighting, Hulk jumps in the middle of it. He sees Blackheart, and <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">recognizes him as an ally of Mephisto. Hulk then becomes furious and pulverizes Blackheart, <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">eventually killing him. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">  Hulk then sees Mephisto watching through a portal in the sky. Hulk attempts to jump <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">up and attack Mephisto, although he can’t get high enough. He then takes Thor and projectiles <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">him through the air. Thor flies towards Mephisto, although Mephisto throws Hellfire at him, <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">causing him to become vertigo. He falls to the ground, and doesn’t have the strength to get up. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Mephisto then leaves his realm and comes to Earth to finish off the heroes.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Tony attempts to use his Hellfire blast on Mephisto, though Mephisto is insensate <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif""> by it and turns it back on Tony. Steve attempts to attack Mephisto, though it attacked and <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">almost killed. Hulk charges at him with full force, and it does knock Mephisto to the ground, <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">although Mephisto is able to take Hulk’s magical energy that powers him and take it away, <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">transforming him back into Bruce Banner. Mephisto then looks to Thor and picks him up. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Mephisto tells him that he knows of Thor’s phobia of losing, and is why Thor will be the last in <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">the world to die. Johnny Blaze then attacks Mephisto, showing he is now in control of Zarathos. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Johnny then attempts to fight Mephisto.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">After several physical attacks from Johnny fail, he tries the Penance Stare, which allows <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Johnny to look into his enemy’s eyes and make them feel every pain that person has ever <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">inflicted on anyone else innocent in their lifetime. It does not work on Mephisto, although after <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">trying it for three minutes, it suddenly works on him and puts Mephisto into shock. Dr. Strange <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">shows up and says he couldn’t allow the world to burn, so he gave Johnny control over Zarathos <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">and enhanced the Penance Stare. Thor then gets up, takes out his swords, and cuts Mephisto <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">into several pieces because of what he did to Asgard and the blasphemy he’s said, killing him. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Tony and Steve get up, and they all shakes hands since they just stopped the anathema known <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">as Mephisto from taking over the world.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">The military then shows up, telling all the heroes to stand down and surrender. The five <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">of them are confused at first, until Jane Foster comes up and orders them to stand down. They <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">do so, due to Jane out ranking them. Steve attempts to hand himself over to custody, although <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Jane tells him that it’s fine and Captain Nazi can be forgotten. Jane asks if the six of them are <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">going to stay together. She says that threats like this will continue, and the government and <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">military are too lazy to do anything. Steve likes the idea and adopts the name “Captain <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">America.”   Dr. Strange says that he does not like to deal with threats outside of mystical threats <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">and did not want to join, although would be willing to lend a hand if they needed it. Johnny <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">says that he didn’t want to do anything with what he was and how he looked. Tony says that <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">he can find a way to rid Zarathos from Johnny’s body. When asked how, Tony says that he can <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">master any type of science, from biology to astronomy to etymology, and that sorcery should <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">be no problem. Thor says that he would join under one proviso: Jane Foster came with them. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Jane agrees, and says she is very frenetic about this. Suddenly, Banner gets up and attempts to <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">fight transforming into the Hulk. Banner asks the six to keep an eye on Hulk at all times so he <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">doesn’t go on a rampage. Banner then fully turns into the Hulk, and agrees to join the team.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">One week later, Tony calls the other six to a mansion he had that he’s turned into a <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">headquarters/living base for the team. Most of the team agrees to live at the mansion, as well <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">as using it for a base. Jane asks what they should be called. Dr. Strange suggests the <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Defenders, although after Tony says that they’re all trying to avenge their past lives, they agree <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">on the name “The Avengers.”   They all agree that this is a nascent of a new era. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">   Later on, Dr. Strange is staring out the window with a worried look on his face. Captain <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">America asks him what’s wrong. Strange says that the prophecy was not fulfilled, and that <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">something was wrong. Steve says that Strange prevented if from being fulfilled, although <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Strange points out that his power should have been stripped by his master, the Ancient One if <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">that was the case. He goes over the prophecy again, and that the Gates to Hell would open, the <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">world would burn, and a fallen savior would die. Cap says that this is definitely no epigram. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Strange says that this is not a joke, and he thinks the worst is yet to come. <h3 class="MsoNormal">Battle of Atlantis

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">The Avengers welcome their newest <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">member Black Widow into the Avengers, who is also Captain America’s girlfriend following the <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">events of the Infinite Captain America mini-series. The Avengers are still considered illegal <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">vigilantes harboring an alien, a fugitive, and a traitor to the United States Government. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Meanwhile, the King of Atlantis Namor, is preparing his Atlantian army for war on the surface <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">world. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">  A few hours later, an army of atlantians rise out of the water. They begin attacking <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">everyone and everything in sight. The Avengers see this and set out to stop them. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">   Dr. Strange teleports everyone to the scene. They are immediately attacked, and begin <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">fighting. After a lot of fighting, resulting in the deaths of a lot of Atlantians, Namor appears out <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">of the ocean. He sees Captain America and remembers him as Captain Nazi from World War II. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Namor attacks him and begins to beat on him until he is pulled off by Thor. Namor then <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">charges at Thor to fight him.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Thor and Namor fight miles above ground level, exchanging punches. During the fight, <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Namor is able to chip off a small piece of Thor’s hammer and hit Thor in the face with it, causing <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Thor to start bleeding from his mouth. Thor takes his hammer and hits Namor in the chest at <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">full force, knocking Namor to the ground. He gets up like nothing happened, and flies back up <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">to fight Thor. He and Thor continue to fight, until Namor finally unleashes his full strength on <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Thor. Thor is knocked unconscious, drops his hammer, and falls to the ground. Namor then <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">attempts to fight Captain America, though is telepathically knocked unconscious by Dr. Strange.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Namor wakes up strapped to a machine holding him in place. He sees Jane Foster <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">talking to Tony,   and immediately wants to know what’s going on. Tony says that he invaded <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">the surface world, attempted to kill Captain America and Thor, was defeated by Dr. Strange, <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">and was going to be handed over to U.S. Custody. Namor demands to be freed, only to be <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">ignored. Dr. Strange comes in to watch Namor while Jane and Tony go to check up on Thor. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">They walk out of the room and close the door. About ten seconds later, Dr. Strange is thrown <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">through the door by Namor, who then leaves the room himself. He demands to see the man <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">with the shield. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">  After tearing through Iron Man, Hulk, and Ghost Rider, Namor finally gets to Captain <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">America. Namor says he wants to fight Cap due to his humiliation in WWII. Namor goes to <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">attack him, and Cap continues to get beat on. Cap eventually builds up the strength to ask why <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">he would invade the surface world just to get back at him. Namor says he didn’t and that Cap <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">was just an added bonus. He says the reason he attacked was due to America firing a missile <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">into Atlantis. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">  Jane says that she is with both the United States Government and Military, and there <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">were no attacks made on Atlantis since 1944. Dr. Strange then gets up and says that he was the <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">one who sent it into Atlantis, though it was not intentional. A missile was coming towards his <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">home, the Sanctum Sanctorum in an attempt to kill The Avengers. Without proper time to <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">prep, he could not teleport it to another dimension, so he teleported it into the ocean, and it <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">must of hit Atlantis by mistake. Strange says that he didn’t realize doing this would kill anyone <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">or start a war, so he resigns from the Avengers. Namor says that he would like to take Dr. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Strange’s spot on The Avengers to “make sure no more hate crimes are committed against <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">Atlantis.”   After a vote, the remaining seven members agree to let Namor onto the team to <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"">attempt to establist peace between humans and Atlantians.
