Accordant to the publisher, the story begins with the "shocking revelation" of what the Watcher has been watching for all these geezerhood. Adding to new, untold layers to old school continuity in a favored story device at Wonder in recent years.

In this incase "a danger old than the Terra firma threatens everything. And for once, the heroes who have blest the planet time and once more find themselves nearly all powerless in the face of information technology," continues the description. "X-Men and Avengers will assemble. Wanderer-people and the Fantastic Four leave come put together. Heroes for Hire will fight aboard Champions. But no of it will atomic number 4 enough. The lights are about to see... eternally."

Atomic number 3 mentioned by Wonder, the storyline was first previewed in last year's Free Laughable Book Day: X-Men, although it was announced as a founder 2020 release at the time (see above).

In the story preview, Tony Stark and Pepper Potts plenty with a mysterious phenomenon that attacks New York City and seems to cause an earthquake, in time leading to the disruption of all physical science systems in the city – including Tony's Ironman armor. Atomic number 3 Tony tries to reach Pepper while she is stuck in an lift, his armor fails and he's sucked into a jet engine, falling thousands of feet to the Earth, losing his leg and possibly even his life.

In one of his last acts before his crash and possible death, Tony calls Captain America, saying simply "Avengers Assemble" before being cut off by the expiration of electronics. Though in that location's no indication of what's behind the blackout, a mysterious green energy is seen collecting in the sky over Manhattan ahead heavenward to the loss of electronics. Just in front he loses awareness As Pepper stands over his consistency, Tony says "Dark... It's all gone dark... Forever."

None effects of the brownout outside of New York are shown in the pages, however. But after ready and waiting a year, Marvel readers are just a a few months away from figuring out WHO and/or what will crusade the blackout.

In most of Marvel Comics' best stories of all time , the heroes usually win. Maybe Middle Ages will be an exception.
