When the Hulk’s name is cleared of the crimes committed by the Red Hulk, the Avengers find that the deception put forth by Captain America’s Skrull doppelganger has made the green-skinned juggernaut even more of a loose cannon than before.

The Enchantress seeks revenge on Baron Zemo and the Masters of Evil for betraying her, and the remaining supervillains go to the Avengers for protection.

The Avengers are ambushed and captured, one by one, by Ultron’s team of synthezoid Avengers as part of the wayward android’s plan to rid the world of “flawed” humans, perfect himself, and construct a mate.

After Captain America’s frozen body is discovered in the Arctic, Arnim Zola unleashes Doughboy on New York City to distract the Avengers while Baron Zemo battles Captain America.
