“BORN IN BLOOD”
6 months later...
Jimmy Woo is the new Director of ATLAS! One of his first directives is to find the man responsible for the death of his predecessor Peter Gyrich and thousands of other agents who died in the destruction of ATLAS HQ! However the hardest thing he's had to do was keep this team together. And he figures the best way to do that is to go after the man behind the deaths and destruction, HYDRA High Council member Baron Blood! That is the mission of James Strongbow, Ana Kraven, Madame Hydra, and Delroy Garret! Find Blood and bring him to justice! Meanwhile, Woo has put together another team consisting of Marcus Fury, Leiko Wu, Cloud-9 and Battlestar. PROMETHEUS' mission is to hunt down the NuHumans who still may pose a threat after the events of Acts of Vengeance! Their very first target is Project: Orphan Black escapee Sarah Manning! Elsewhere, Misty Knight and Kasper Kole are in the backwoods of Louisiana investigating reports of militia activity in the region. All evidence points to the return of the man responsible for the largest domestic terrorist attack on American soil! The man with Steve Roger's face, the Grand Director!

Wrestlemania XXXII: Ursa Major versus “The Russian Bear” Ivan Koloff Variant Cover by DAVID AJA
“BLOC PARTY”
Piotr "Colossus" Rasputin narrowly defeated the Ultimate Crimson Dynamo, Vladimir Putin, in a highly televised battle for Russia's future. With faith in Putin shaken, at least two-thirds of the Federation Council vote to remove him from office. A new election must be held... and a reluctant Colossus, now widely considered the new face of Russian virility, upends anti-mutant bigotry and finds himself as the write-in favorite to become the Federation's next President! Unfortunately, Omega Red has other plans. His sole mission in life is to reestablish the dominance of the Soviet Union, but if he and his followers wish to succeed, then they cannot let the election happen...
Before Colossus can even think of his possible future in politics, he's going to have to rally the remnants of the all-new Winter Guard - Black Widow, Ursa Major, and Darkstar - to battle Omega Red's U.S.S.R. revolutionaries in the streets of St. Petersburg! It's a cold winter and the fate of the nation is on the line. Whoever wins will lead Russia into an all-new, all-different future - but will this new era be represented by an outstretched hand of organic steel... or a carbonadium tendril that strangles the world?

“ITS ALWAYS BLOODY IN SAN DIABLO” Part Two “BOLT DOWN THE MIDDLE”
Thunderbolts win! Peace in our time! San Diablo is safe! That's right, we ousted Jared Nomack and his reaper strain of vampires from the country with no casualties (unless of course you count "Power Princess" getting turned into a reaper, but I never liked her anyway). Believe it or not, some of the natives still aren't happy though. They're all like, "Ohhh my country's in ruins and my government was forced to disband, boohoo!" (Too bad Starscream can't transform into a wambulance, amirite?). Without anyone else in charge, it looks like the "dibs" on leadership called by Kristoff Vernard (rap name: 'lil Doom) is actually being respected. Fortunately, it turns out he's a pretty cool guy (a big $&@% you to nature and nurture there, eh?). He's rejected Madame Masque's influence and wants to recruit the 'Bolts as his national security advisers! But wouldn't you know it, that wet blanket supervisor Sharon Carter won't let us spread our wings - she wants to keep us on S.H.I.E.L.D.'s leash and refuses to abide by our parole agreements otherwise. This is going to cause a major rift within the team. You've got me (the Death-Denying Deadpool), Juggernaut, Ghost, Sasha Hammer, Starscream, Moonstone, and Doggleganger. We're gonna disagree, and yeah, we're gonna fight (all families do). But in the end, there's going to be a split. Who's staying? Who's going? Who's doing alternate weekend visitation?

“LET IT GO TO HELL” Part One “THE COLD FRONT”
Legends speak of the Snow Queen who once ruled the Kingdom of Arendelle, a large swath of what is now Denmark. In modern S.H.I.E.L.D. parlance, she would have been known as a cryokenetic - an ice manipulator. The tales say she nearly froze her homeland to death until she learned the power of love. They also say that when her reign was over, she froze herself inside a block of ice - preserved forever, until she was needed... and Hydra Commander believes that time is now! HYDRA have found and thawed out Queen Elsa, brainwashed her with an alternative history about how Arendelle was conquered, and provided her a new "sister" to love - the venomous Viper! Now they have only one question for her: do you wanna build a snowman army to conquer Europe? The answer... is yes! With Hawkeye still dealing with family issues and Natasha independently pursuing the Widowmakers, Nick Fury puts Union Jack in charge of the field team tasked with the critical mission of melting Queen Elsa before her frozen blitzkrieg snowballs into an unstoppable world power!

“HYDRA-CITY ONE” Part Three “WHO ARE YOU TO JUDGE ME?”
Dredd has officially deputized the elderly Natasha Romanoff and all of Rogue's mutant teammates from the Cursed Earth. They are all street judges for the next 24 hours. They are the law. And in the execution of their judicial duties, they must storm Mega City-One's most highly fortified structure - the Hall of Justice. Inside is the man who has masqueraded for years as Chief Justice Baron, the highest legal authority, but who, in actuality, is the one time leader of HYDRA - Wolfgang von Strucker! He is guilty of countless crimes, not the least of which are genocide and treason. His sentence is death, but does Dredd have any hope of actually imposing it when a legion of “HYDRA” judges stand in the way?

Wrestlemania XXXII: Snake Eyes versus C.M. Punk Variant Cover by RAMON PEREZ
“OPEN HAND”
With the assistance of a suit of armor designed by his ninjtisu protégé Tony Stark, Storm Shadow has defeated the Gorgon and assumed control of the Hand – sealing a rift between the Arashikage clan and its demon-worshipping offshoot that began five centuries ago. Unfortunately, not everyone is happy about that... expecially hard-line fundamentalists within the Hand itself. If he hopes to change the organization's direction, he must bring in ninjas he can trust. Will his sword-brother Snake Eyes accept his offer for a reunion? Will Iron Man join him? What about a younger recruit, one who happens to be both a teenager and a mutant... and a turtle? Storm Shadow sees potential in Master Spinter's most headstrong apprentice, but can he mold Raphael into a ninja after his own heart? Will Snake Eyes let him?
Meanwhile, despite Nick Fury's predelections, Snakes Eyes frowns upon “enhanced intergoation.” Fortunately, Perun of the Liberators is a most forthcoming prisoner. He's singing like a canary, and providing Scarlett vital intelligence to assist in the takedown of his cohorts... including Gregory Stark. With leads from Perun, Scarlett is able to connect Gregory to all the terroristic actions undertaken by the Secret Emprire for years – including not only the helicopter explosion that phsyically scarred Snake Eyes, but also the act that mentally scarred him – the “car accident” that killed his parents. What will Snake Eyes do when he find outs the extent of Stark's crimes?
