But can even Spider-Girl be enough to stop the Machine’s identity from being exposed to the world at large when the Punisher returns to New York – hellbent on taking the Machine for himself in an effort to make his job at finding people to kill a lot easier.
• However, alongside the Punisher, another social security number has come up in the Machine – the number of the lawyer Matt Murdock, aka Daredevil, who has discovered the Machine’s existence – and wants to shut it down for good, believing in not only how wrong its existence is – but also that Finch might not have it under his control. (Of course, he’s right, but not for the reasons that Daredevil believes!)
• The Punisher’s first strike cripples Team Machine’s Library HQ, and they’re able to escape in the nick of time. However, now they’re separated – and on the run in the streets of New York – and to make matters worse, Daredevil and the Punisher are not the only ones hunting the Machine. As is evident from a simple phonecall. “Hello, Nick Fury. Yes, we met during the meeting with the President. My name is John Greer. I represent Decima Technologies, and I...

"THE DOOM THAT CAME TO RAVENCROFT"
In the darkest realms of the universe, where lurks the unnameable things that should not be, it is only the insane who will not be driven to utter madness. Locked away in the most secure wing of Ravencroft Asylum lurks the murderous alien beast known as Carnage, whose mind holds cosmic secrets that are nothing less than pure blasphemy against the natural order of creation. This forbidden knowledge has attracted the attention of the Many Angled Ones, the Elder Gods who dwell in the eldritch dimensions just outside the perception of mortals. They now intend to use Carnage as a tool to spread their hellish influence to all corners of the galaxy, uniting the gibbering, monstrous hordes who prowl the edges of the universe under one black banner. Nevertheless, there are those who would oppose the will of these eternal abominations of the void, with some doing so out of a noble desire to save the civilized peoples of the galaxy from the complete enslavement of both the body and soul, while others are motivated by unknown, still-imperceptible ambitions...
One man who would take up arms against this storm of diabolism is Colonel John Jameson, former astronaut and restored head of security at Ravencroft. His perceptive instincts, honed through years of experience battling the champions of madness and also a residual effect of the curse bestowed upon him by the dreaded moonstone, tell him that something evil is in the air at the asylum. Is this darkness solely the product of the growing cosmic evil surrounding the prison's most infamous inmate, or is there a more base, more human malevolence at work as well?

But in the year 2015, Skeletor is banished from his home of Eternia, slowing amassing power in the hinterlands of the majestic realm of K'ai. Though Doom forgot to mention that Skeletor had made friends with the refugees from the warrior world of Polemachus and their Hulk-hating leader, Arkon the Magnificent!

***The Midnight Sons slam into Kulan Gath's army, the Watch can't perish at this madman's hands! The Son's must find a way to turn the tide in this war and manpower is their best solution so far. Brother Voodoo takes on Kulan Gath in a desperate battle of sorcerers wits and he does not fight alone. Red Sonja had her hands on Mephisto but a powerless devil is still a slippery fiend, he escaped. But now she can unleash her fury on an old foe, Kulan Gath's head is a long desired prize! And the look of fear and recognition in his eyes warms her very being as she cuts her way to him.
***The Living Mummy hears a voice on the air and strays from the battle, what voice can he hear beckoning him to an unknown destination and why does he feel so compelled to obey? The voice speaks of power and disdain. Disdain that he has never embraced the true power he has always been capable of wielding. Disappointment that he has never spread terror like he could, but he will be taught. First though he must serve, there is a task that he must complete if this world is to continue. Dracula whispers across the foggy moors, the smell of blood from the distant battles is enticing but not nearly so rewarding as the riches that the Living Mummy can unknowingly deliver!

***A Nightmare on Graymalkin Lane***
So, bear with me because its all kind of fuzzy. Last issue I decided to pick a fight with Freddy Krueger on his home turf (My dreams!). It went pretty much as badly as you might expect, and then got a whole lot worse. Sure, he could slice and dice me to his infernal heart’s content, but they don’t call me the "guy who don’t die" for nothin’! (Nobody really calls me that now, per se, but I'm trying to make it happen). Unable to finish me off, Freddy did what he knew I most feared... he crept through my subconsciousness, killed my identity, and replaced it with a nightmare! Left on the outskirts of Chicago with no knowledge of who or how kick-ass I really am, as far as I know now I’m a below-average guy named Wade that makes minimum wage selling women’s shoes! But at least my co-worker isn’t so bad. He once scored four touchdowns in a single game, and he plans on taking me to the nudie bar later. His name’s Al Bundy, and I think I've got a new best friend! But the question is, as he hands me the latest issue of Big'uns, has my inner Deadpool finally found peace? Do I even want to go back?

She stole the soul of the Loch Ness monster and infused it into an eerie looking yellow cocoon. From there, an unfathomable freak-show hatched. Calling itself Psycho X, it instantly exploited Meggan and Psylocke’s mental powers to rip their mind to pieces. Brian is breaking down in tears over his helplessness, losing all his confidence and thus, his powers. Hope, Wisdom, and Dazz are fighting hard but they are no match for the energy absorbing Psycho X. As for her, Dani has been infected by a mutated creature and she can feel the virus seeping through every fiber of her being. Soon, she will be another one of Nova’s cannibalistic pawns and probably will feast on the carcasses of her dead teammates. Maybe this is the end. “Not today, girl!” said Hela. Hela is pissed the Hel off at Cassie Nova running around, stealing all HER yummiest souls, and insulting her authority as the true Goddess of Death. Hela has granted Dani the highest extent of Valkyrie power possible to deal with these mortal fools. Risen from the ashes, clad in her invincible Valkyrie armor, Dani charges in on Brightwind with a battle-cry: “Now which one of you b@#$%es chewed off my left leg one hot minute ago?
