“THUNDERBATS ARE GO!” Part One “BATSHIT RETURNS”
***Prelude to INCORPORATE***
Oh, you didn’t expect an Age of Marvels book to tie-in to an event in the New Dawn line?!? Boom! Expect the unexpected! (Plus, be real, if you’re reading this you’re reading New Dawn too). Anyway, remember in issue #25 when I was over in that universe and joined Batman Inc. as the fabulously branded “Batshit”? (How could you forget, right? I had those tiny little pointy ears duct-taped to my mask and fought the Joker! Good times, good times...). Well there’s been some upheaval in the multiverse (as if millions of voices cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced). Batman Inc. is on the case, and they’re gonna need their multiversal franchisee - moi, the Merc with a Mouth, Deadpool - to help! But I don’t know all this just yet. All I know is that I’ve been confronted by some schmuck named Bruce Wayne, Agent of SHIELD (check SECRET AVENGERS #30-33 for how this amalgamated “Batspy” got here), and he’s VERY interested in my time in the New Dawn Universe... with intent to use “enhanced interrogation techniques” to find out how I got there! But like the legendary Johnny Tightlips, all I’m telling him is to “go suck a lemon!” He won’t like that...

Hawkeye, Black Widow, Snake Eyes, and the others continue to explore Fury’s classified files on the secret and long history of both S.H.I.E.L.D. and HYDRA. And “long” is an understatement...
”Know, O prince, that between the years when the oceans drank Atlantis and the gleaming cities, and the rise of the sons of Aryas, there was an Age undreamed of, when shining kingdoms lay spread across the world like blue mantles beneath the stars. Hither came Conan, the Cimmerian, black-haired, sullen-eyed, sword in hand, a thief, a reaver, a slayer, with gigantic melancholies and gigantic mirth, to tread the jeweled thrones of the Earth under his sandaled feet... And for a time, to act as an AGENT OF SHIELD!”
- The Nemedian Chronicles
After defeating Damballah in his Stygian temple with the Brotherhood of the Shield (see CONAN THE AGENT OF SHIELD #1-4) and traveling into the distant future, Conan has returned to the Hyborian Age. After years of adventure, the Cimmerian led a successful rebellion against the mad Numedides to become King of Aquilonia. Yet Conan was uncomfortable on the throne and uninterested in matters of statecraft, often longing for his days as a violent barbarian, crushing his enemies and hearing the lamentations of their women. He may regret that sentiment when confronted with an enemy the likes of which his world has never seen - Sin, daughter of the Red Skull, followed him back in time and plans to use advanced weaponry from 2018 to conquer the past! And she’s willing to ally with what remains of the proto-HYDRA Serpent Cult to do it! Even with aid from his old Allies in the Brotherhood of the Shield, can King Conan stop her genocidal scheme?

His ex-girlfriends Liv Moore and Gwen-Stacy are called into action. Even Harold Finch is brought out of temporary retirement from Italy. Johnny Storm comes willingly next, always up for some Vegas gambling – and another – long presumed dead, hacktivist Ocean who has the power of Finch’s Machine itself in her ears – is drawn to MJ’s aid. The last two additions to the team are the brother-sister duo of Peter Parker and Paige Jennings, back from Russia and bringing every law enforcement agency – SHIELD, the CIA, the FBI and even the FSB – on their tail. Can Watson’s Eleven rob the Cult of Spiders HQ and clear Peter’s name? Or will Peter find himself brought back under the control of Arachne, the Spider-Goddess, once again? But more importantly – is it just Arachne that is responsible for controlling him? Or is it somebody – something – else that she has merely found a way to unleash upon this world?

"That's So Savage, Part III"[*]This is it, the final showdown. Eddie Brock has been feuding with those green shape-shifting Skrulls since way back in issue #2. Now they settle the score in the Savage Land! Quick Recap: They wanted his symbiote to use as a weapon, he inadvertently led to the death of one of theirs (Ethan Edwards), they battled it out in Manhattan doing some Zach Snyder level destruction and presently they just totally wrecked Brock's prehistoric male-bonding zen jungle getaway with new bro Flash Thompson who also happens to be the freshly minted host of the Carnage symbiote. That leaves us with Venom & Carnage vs. Skrull Death Squad vs. Dinosaurs - Rumble in the Jungle![*]But these Skrulls have new science and their deadly sonic blasters are tearing Eddie and Flash to shreds. Temporarily separating from its host, the Venom symbiote bonds with a T-Rex and nearly saves the day by devouring some green men but seeing it's battered and broken human host clinging to life, the symbiote retreats to help Brock flee the scene and abandon Flash Thompson to be abducted by the surviving Skrulls.[*]Eddie and Venom lay hidden in the brush, struggling to breathe the thick Savage Land oxygen. From there they watch the Skrull Battle Cruiser launch into orbit, off into the distance and out of sight, taking with it the only friend Eddie has in the world, who as Carnage also happens to be the greatest threat to his existence. Now maybe the Skrulls will leave him alone and Carnage is "safely" headed to a galaxy far, far away. You could say things worked out pretty well for Eddie in the end. Besides..friend, who needs 'em?[*]In the blackness of space aboard an alien cruiser, experiments are being performed on the symbiote and it's host as the Skrulls desperately try to separate them to no avail. Then.....the sound of metal clashing and alien cries for help as green blood paints the walls. They say that no one can hear you scream in space. They lie.

“EXTRAORDINARY RECOLLECTION”
A mind can shape reality... sometimes literally. But age and entropy are unavoidable. We can all only hope that when the time comes, the world we’ve created and the people we’ve brought into it will support us with care and love. Yet sometimes, unscrupulous sorts weasel their way in.... gaining trust, exploiting our gifts for their own purposes, and reshaping our reality into something we don’t recognize - stunting it; abusing it; and if left to their own devices, ultimately ending it and scavenging the remains. In such times of confused panic, we may reach out to friends who are no longer there - memories of those we trusted but that can’t help us now. But if reality can change...
Namor was investigating odd seismic waves within the Bermuda Triangle when he finds himself pulled from the waters and brought... somewhere else. In another universe, a mysterious and powerful cosmic entity regarded him as a friend and is imploring him to help. Problem is, this Namor has never met “the Man” before! Who the blazes is he?
Elsewhere, Stephen Strange awakens to find himself in an equally unexpected place - Mephista’s bedroom? Even after the “hellacious” and inebriating celebration last issue, there’s no way he hooked up with his literal she-devil of an ex-wife again... is there? Meanwhile, a time displaced Victor Strange smiles. He has every reason to be happy. After all, he just facilitated his own conception!

Dougie Jones meets Alex Summers at a Las Vegas casino and from the moment that they meet, the only two men without powers in the world share a connection. But Alex knows that there’s something ‘odd’ about Dougie, he just can’t quite place it. Luckily, his contact in SHIELD, Maria Hill – does. 27 years ago, a man named Dale Cooper went missing – and Dougie bares a striking resemblance. But can Alex get Dougie out of Vegas alive? Meanwhile, Erik and Magik find themselves recaptured and reunited with an old frenemy of Alex’s who is now apparently fallen in with the bad crowd once again – Christopher Nicholson (See Brotherhood of Mutants #36-40). However, Christopher needs help from Erik and Magik – as his own job is on the line. But why are Erik and Magik needed to interrogate a man known only as Dale Cooper – a man who shares a remarkable connection not only to Dougie Jones, but is also - down to the same name itself, the spitting image of a man who disappeared 27 years earlier?

As Darwin, Banshee and Pride journey with the three wise men to Jerusalem, they find themselves under attack by a fellow time-traveller in the form of a Transformer - a Decepticon, stranded in time from the future - who wants to kill Mary before she can give birth to Jesus. Whether Jesus is actually the Son of Christ remains to be seen, but the Transformer goes for the house next door by mistake and Darwin, Banshee and Pride now find themselves protecting someone who’s not the so-called Messiah – but an imposter. And Xavier and Erik realise that their only way home is through a mysterious device inside the court of En Sabah Nur. But if the power-hungry Apocalypse gains access to the time machine, all of history is his for the taking. And then there’s the matter of the One God of Egypt himself that both Professor X and Magneto have to contend with – The Incredible Hulk!

Because of course, releasing a Christmas special in the middle of July seemed to be the only appropriate thing to do. And nothing says an X-Men Christmas special like featuring an all-star cast that includes Jesus, Ancient Egypt, Apocalypse, A Transformer and The Incredible Hulk!

But could Gunhawk have somehow survived? And could he be the one who helped Daken escape custody? Beware: the Mongrels are coming!

•Toyko is supposed to be loud and bustling but there's barely a sound to be heard. BANSHEE can barely maintain his noise cancelling sonic scream, the only thing keeping DAZZLER's uncontrollably mutated sonic transduction from infecting mutants with horrible genetic diseases. Even if EMPLATE can shift Dazzler to his parallel dimension, the impromptu blockade on all travel to or from Tokyo by X-Corps' mutant volunteers which is angering world powers can't be lifted since more mutants may already be infected by speciest DOMINION's pathogen that turns their powers into disease generators targeting the X-gene.
•The HUMAN RIGHT offers the United Nations what seem to be the answer: PURITY, a virus that edits the X-gene out of DNA, permanently turning mutants into regular humans. It seems like the perfect solution but it's far too perfect, and CHANGELING will have to use all of his shapeshifting and telepathic powers to get to the truth.
•And if there's anyone who knows about genetic modification, it's the Umbrella Corporation. Luckily, their new owner is the immortal mutant DORIAN GRAY, and he has no intention of letting either the Dominion or Human Right's plans to exterminate mutantkind succeed... but at what cost?
