Trapped on a planet of attorneys and enjoined from using her gamma powers, if Jen Walters wants to defeat the litigation lord Coram Non Judice and liberate the Arguendo people, then she can’t hulk out - she’ll have to lawyer up! Last time she was only saved from certain doom on the courtroom/arena floor during trial by combat through a last-minute discretionary adjournment. Now she has precious little time to make pre-trial motions in order to gain some kind, any kind, of advantage. She’s made an application to preclude Coram Non Judice from using inequitable cybernetic enhancements and seeks to bar any unnatural empowerment (which, of course, she’ll withdraw if her appeal of the gamma power preclusion comes down in her favor). She’s also moved to have weapons of choice preselected as bow staffs (she was on the twirling team in junior high so she has some experience wielding a stick). But she better hope her motions are granted and her objections sustained, because her next court-date will be to the death!

SECRET AVENGERS #33
Written by MATT FRACTION
Plot by EXCITER
Art by DANIEL ACUNA
“SPY VS. BATSPY” part four “SHADOW OF THE HYDRA”
From the mission log of Agent Bruce Wayne:
HYDRA are a superstitious and cowardly lot. After the terrorist scum left my parents dead in some godforsaken third world country because they dared to accept a peacekeeping mission, I chose to become what most strikes fear into their hearts. I joined SHIELD and made it my mission to eliminate HYDRA. Others scoffed at the audacity of my goals, claiming it was beyond one man’s limits. But they soon found out that Agent Wayne has no limits. After years of relentless preparation, I systematically dismantled HYDRA on my world. Then, in a universal crisis, I ended up on this world; a world where HYDRA has thrived because I wasn’t here to stop them. They’ve eaten well. They’ve eaten this world’s wealth. Its spirit. But I promised their feast was coming to an end. I resolved to devastate the entire horrid nation they’ve built up and justified my extreme measures by claiming HYDRA’s infection was too widespread to do anything else. This world’s SHIELD opposed me. I saw them as weak-willed and soft, unwilling to do what was necessary to stop HYDRA. It took Clint “Hawkeye” Barton, and our sons, to open my eyes. My mission was never about personal revenge. It’s bigger than that; more noble than that. I want this world to be a better place, where a young Bruce Wayne would not lose his parents to terrorism. I cannot achieve that end through taking the lives of those who have merely been deceived by HYDRA’s propaganda. Is it too late for Clint and I to stop the massive detention I have set into motion? Will Sin, Crossbones, and their HYDRA forces inadvertently prevent us from saving the nation’s civilians? It’s true what they say. Some days you just can’t get rid of a bomb...

Tier three - five buys - I will personally call you on the phone and leave an erotic message on your voicemail!

Remember in Empire Strikes Back (***thankfully a Disney/Marvel property these days so we can avoid any litigation from that reference***) when Yoda trained Luke in the ways of the Jedi on Dagobah? Well Nerds, just replace that swamp planet with the Savage Land, alien symbiotes for the force, but try as he might Flash Thompson doesn't quite have the earnest heroic Skywalker quality, and well...Eddie Brock, a Master Yoda ain't he. But still, you get the point. Eddie attempts to help Flash contain his new lethal Carnagey powers that are more accustomed to killing first and not asking questions later thanks to its previous host, a walking murder machine. They spend their days meditating, sparring with dinosaurs and various sabre-toothed cats, catch their dinner - dunkleosteus isn't half bad over an open flame, and your general alpha-male jungle bonding. But in all their shirtless zen glory, they failed to notice some of the wildlife acting increasingly suspicious, growing in number and closing in on their camp. Skrulls can masquerade in many forms, like prehistoric beasts for example. This particular group is a military death squad with one mission on this planet - kill Eddie Brock and obtain the living alien weapon he is attached to. The fact that there happens to be two symbiotes within their grasp now, well let's just say somebody is going to get a helluva promotion IF they can pull this off.

Entering Ultron’s world to save Raylan Givens, the Power Rangers find themselves in a dark vision of a future where the Earth has been cracked open, supposedly by the actions of one of their own.

How they should handle Raylan’s apparent betrayal splits the group down the middle, with Helion suggesting a more violent approach whilst Franklin and Valeria are less than keen. But when America Chavez learns the truth behind the destruction of Earth, will she return to the past with them or stay behind in the future to prevent a great catastrophe that is somehow a result of her own making?

After Thanos ravaged the known universe, and in the aftermath that saw increased aggression from Skrulls, space pirates, and the Maveth Pact alliance (Ego, HYDRA, Breakworld, and the Chitauri), a refugee colony known as “Cunekutnan” has unexpectedly thrived. Colonel Jameson and the U.S.S. Excelsior visit these survivors from eclectic races to see the secret of their success - Acanti! Cunekutnan was established on a world near the breeding grounds of a rare type of Acanti “space whales” that have recovered from the Brood’s slaver virus. These majestic creatures have no higher brain functioning - but their “stellar organs” that allow natural faster-than-light speed travel are highly valuable! Problem is, their numbers are dwindling! This puts Jameson, Hiro, Baymax, and the crew in a precarious position: do they defend endangered wildlife if doing so threatens the livelihood of an otherwise destitute people?
Meanwhile, a Shi’ar space whaler tells Longshot, Spiral, and Korg about the most dangerous Acanti in the cosmos - Yock Bimd - who retains a greater sentience than the others... and a much greater malevolence. Can they prevent Yock’s next attack on the colony?
Plus, a group of Cunekutnan natives that worship the Acanti take Spider-Woman and Warbird prisoner! What are their demands?

For damages associated with pain & suffering alone, Strange has been awarded a share of Mephista’s assets - and now finds himself with the deed to a portion of Hell (the 8th Circle, specifically). Yet this might prove less an asset and more a severe liability... What will the good doctor do as a lord of the underworld?
Meanwhile, Victor Strange returns! The evil offspring of Stephen and Mephista from the year 2039 (see THE DEFENDERS #7) is back, but this divorce threatens his very future existence! If he ever wants to be born, he’s got to find a way to get his parents to f***!!
Plus: Hulk and the Silver Surfer attempt to help Valkyrie recover her memories and personality - but they seem to have been magically stripped away by a mysterious object that they learn too late is a fragment of a Diablo’s shattered soul stone (see THE DEFENDERS #16)! What havoc will touching the stone fragment wreak?

“X-MEN BLUE BLOOD” part three “REVISIONIST HISTORY”
The Anglo-Spanish War of 1599 is about to engulf Europe in chaos as King Xavier and the clawed Queen Elizabeth the Best prepare their forces to annihilate the other! The time-displaced Kitty Pryde has to set the timeline right before further damage is done, and she thinks she’s found the culprit! In 2018 a new mutant named “História” believed mutants weren’t abominations as the Purifiers who tortured her insisted, which is true enough - but once her abilities fully manifested she wanted to prove it by using her temporal powers to intersperse important mutants throughout history! Replacing Sixteenth Century rulers with the X-Men has changed the past - but História didn’t realize that mutants and their descendants are still only human. Her time tampering didn’t fix anything, but instead resulted in more war and mutants becoming a permanent overclass! Can Kitty convince História to put things back the way they were? Or is História ready to double-down and create “the Medieval X-Men”? Or even the “Pre-Historic X-Men”?
