Plot
After a fight against Inhuman criminal Sheath, Kate Bishop / Redhawk and Crystal are enduring an ordinary day of studies at S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy, where they are having training with speedsters Jacqueline Falsworth / Spitfire and Pietro Maximoff / Quicksilver. During which, Jacqueline receives a call from her cousin Marcus Thompson / White Wolf, who alerts her that his younger brother Jack is missing. Elsewhere, Jack is shown with an unknown Super Soldier serum having been inserted on his arm, as his new-found speed powers are manifesting.

Picking up Jack's trail, Redhawk, Quicksilver, Spitfire and White Wolf encounter the Super Soldier serum dart Jack was infused with, which is revealed to be from Oscorp. Quicksilver soon remembers that he was at Oscorp before and had a piece of his bloodsample extracted by Phineas Mason, a Oscorp scientist who was soon fired for stealling equipment for unknown benefactors. At the same time, Tony Stark / Iron Man and Steve Rogers / Captain America are investigating details about the Oscorp employees who are conspiring against Norman Osborn for Hydra following the Jackal's unmasking. They are soon informed by a S.H.I.EL.D. spy that Mason (having gone under the alias of the "Thinkerer") is working for Doctor Doom, who (still in possession of Oscorp's scientific resources ) plans to create a new army of Super Soldiers for Latveria's homeguard, which he started by kidnapping former Midtown High jocks Flash Thompson and Nathan Quill's brother Hector "Hercules" and turning them into his first subjects. They also overhear that Doom also seeks to brainwash the "metahuman speedster with Mason's formula", prompting Spitfire and White Wolf to act quickly and find Jack as fast as they can, even though they are advised that Doctor Octopus is also planning the same on Madame Masque's behalf.

Redhawk, Spitfire and White Wolf manage to seek and find Jack, who has managed to control his speed abilities and (wanting to be a hero like Marcus and the rest of the Champions) adopted the identity of Speed. While concerned over Jack's safety, Marcus and Jacqueline agree to let him undergo heroics (as long as he is still under heroes' care), and Kate gives Jack an upgrade: a nanosuit projector which adapts to Jack's speed powers.
