Premise
The Avengers set out to stop Wilson Fisk, who has built a particle accelerator to access parallel universes and reconnect with alternative versions of his deceased fiancee Vanessa Marianna, who died in a car accident. The heroes soon learn of the worse when they discover that Fisk has made a deal with Thanos, who allowed Fisk to use Space and Reality Infinity Stones for his machine in exchanges of resources for his goals... as well as revenge on the Avengers.

Plot
Following the end of his career as Crimson Spider, Flash Thompson is residing Ravencroft Institute for his crimes while being yelled at by the angered citizens of New York. Just then, he is visitted in his cell by a man who has "unfinished business with him". To Thompson's horror, the man is Wilson Fisk / Kingpin, the first super criminal the Crimson Spider fought against; they first fought when Fisk was leading a gang on a riot against a rival crimelord near to Midtown High until Crimson Spider stood in their way. Consequently, Fisk's fiancee Vanessa Marianna winessed in horror the savagery of both Crimson Spider and Fisk and fleed (and immediatedly after that, she died in a car accident). In Present Day, Thompson attempts to reason with Fisk over the situation, but Fisk refuses to listen and, against the officers' wishes, kills Thompson, avenging Vanessa.
