Premise
Sally Avril has been given with new Bird-like abilities thanks to the same serum responsible for Captain America's creation. Mary Jane now trains her to become a new super-heroine, the Blue Eagle. At the same time, Falcon and White Swan help young Shi'ar Princess Lilandra when her evil sister Cal'syee (also known as Deathbird) invades the Earth to collect an artifact which grants the wielder full control of all birds and bird-like aliens on the Galaxy. Phoenix Princess and Vision will also need to battle Deathbird when they discover that the artifact is also part of the experiment responsible for Sally's Blue Eagle powers.

Plot
In a warehouse of New York, the Avengers (Iron Man, Phoenix Princess, Wasp, Falcon and Vision) are battling Hydra soldiers led by Crossbones and Baron Strucker, who had scavenged the Ark of Horus (an mystic Egyptian relic which grants the wielder the power to manipulate bird life or achieve bird-like abilities) and plan to use it t create bird-based Super-Soldiers. As the Avengers battle Crossbones and Strucker's men, Sally Avril (assuming that the heroes will not stop the weapon in time) sneaks into the warehouse and works to sabotage the machine by pulling off the canisters and wires. Just as one of the Hydra agents (against Strucker's orders) activates it, the machine malfunctions, though Sally exposes herself to the Serum's gas, which is also combined with the drained (and then disintegrated) Ark. Noticing Sally's presence in the warehouse, Vision carries her into the Avengers Facility as Crossbones and Strucker forcibly retreat. Elsewhere, a mysterious alien valkyrie is in her ship watching data about Earth. Growing interested with the Ark of Horus, she voices her intentions of obtaining its power.

Sally awakens from her comatose in the Avengers Facility next to Mary Jane and Liz Allan feeling seemly unaffected by the incident. As she walks around, however, Sally progressively discovers the partial changes within her: she is now stronger and more agile than before. Her eyesight was highly enhanced enough to let her see everything from far away and also watch in the dark. And also, she can now camouflage without difficulty and hypnotize other living beings with her singing. And just as Sally proves herself able to communicate with birds, Wasp deduces that the cause was Zola and Strucker's experiment, which granted Sally with Captain America's strength and Bird-like abilities from the Ark of Horus, and Black Cat (who had studied about the Egyptian treasures before) confirms this to be correct with a piece of the Ark which did not dissolve. Meanwhile, Zola and Strucker try to recreate their project, but only to figure out their resources had been used up for "someone else" (as Zola deduces). Just as they suspect that one of the agents who disobeyed their orders is the one infused, Crossbones finds a evidence of the suspect (although it does not fully reveal to be Sally). Suddenly, they are attacked by a squadron of aliens known as the Shi'ar led by Deathbird, who demands the Ark of Horus.
