Mystique, former mutant terrorist and espionage agent supreme, is loyal to Professor X's Quiet Council for one reason only: the promise that someday, he will resurrect her beloved Destiny. But when Moira MacTaggert helped Professor X and Magneto realize their lifelong dreams for mutantkind, it came with one condition - do not allow any precognitive mutants on the island of Krakoa. What will Mystique do when she realizes that she is being strung along?.

The Ultimates face more than they can handle when the walls of a mysterious, expanding city open and the hyper-evolved Children of Tomorrow come pouring out into the world and nobody, even the Asgardians, can stand against them.

When Captain America extends the roster of the Avengers to the interplanetary level, some surprising people answer the call. Their first mission takes them first to Mars then back to Earth's Savage Land. And, when the Shi'ar Imperial Guard fall on a dead moon, the Avengers cross the galaxy to battle invaders who want to remake Earth.

When the mysterious Children of Tomorrow lay waste to Northern Europe and Asgard, the Ultimates must retaliate, but with a de-powered Thor and Captain America missing in action, leader Nick Fury must take drastic measures.
