With a newfound home in Westchester, New York, Charles Xavier, over the years, has built a new foundation and home for mutants alike. Xavier spends his spare time trying to find where Erik has gone, while Scott and Jean both lead the X-Men in their battles to protect humanity, who still shuns mutants. Erik returns from the shadows and has formed the Brotherhood of Mutants, a group of mutants looking to tear humanity apart, as Erik believes that human beings do not deserve to live, as mutants have been shunned for too long. Charles and his X-Men fight the Brotherhood, as Charles believes that love and unity need to co-exist and even if the humans are not in favor of mutants, that does not mean humanity does not need protection...

Thor ends up trapped on Sakaar, which is on the other side of the universe; Thor reunites with fellow avenger, the Hulk, here and is on the limited race against time to get back to Asgard to stop Ragnarok from happening in the hands of Hela, who he finds out has dark familial ties to the Odin heritage.
