And just what does the mysterious Baron Mordo--sitting in his castle atop nearby Wundagore Mountain--have to do with this?"--Provided by publisher.

"What if Miles Morales had never been bitten by a genetically enhanced spider?

Or perhaps Miles was taken from everything he ever knew--his family, his home, his entire life--and transformed into the immortal weapon of war known as the Wolverine! If he was blasted by gamma radiation and turned into a Hulk, would Miles be man or monster? And are there other super heroes that the many Miles of the multiverse might have become instead of Spider-Man? You bet there are! But most importantly--what makes Miles Morales a hero no matter the circumstances, no matter the reality?"--Provided by publisher.

"On the run from the law and pursued by a dogged Nick Fury, Steve Rogers must find a way to prove his innocence. But how? By taking the fight back to the Power Elite and their insidious minions--with a little help from the Daughters of Liberty!"--Back cover.

"Hydra conquered the United States, following a leader with Steve Rogers' face. The true Captain America returned, and the enemy was defeated--but the war is not over. The scars still remain, and they divide the nation. Cap has lost the trust of the government--and of the people. America is broken, and the dream may be over. One man, though, will keep fighting for what is right. Against armies of cyborg Super-Soldiers. Against shadowy figures making a play for power. Against costumed killers, psychic vampires and traitors dressed as patriots. But he is more than a man--he is an ideal. The enemies conspiring against him know that and will use it against him. Steve Rogers thought his darkest days were behind him--but they were nothing compared to what is coming. The hero will be disgraced. The legend will be tarnished. But when the Sentinel falls, the Daughters of Liberty rise!"--Provided by publisher.
