AXIS | Comics

Following Avengers/X-Men War, Captain America decided to form a team of The Avengers with human and mutant superheroes from X-Men. They were almost immediately troubled by Nazi super-villain Red Skull has stepped into war-torn island nation of Genosha to claim the powerful mind of Professor Charles Xavier from his corpse and to create an army to rule world in his vision. With his new-found psychic powers, Skull decides to re-ignite the age-old war between humans and mutants to eradicate the latter race from Earth forever but Avengers Unity Division came in his way.

Red Skull then escaped to Genosha, turning it into a secret mutant concentration camp where his army of S-Men tortures and ran experiments on mutants. Upon hearing about Skull’s activities, mutant terrorist Magneto arrives at Genoshan island nation to confront him only to be captured and tortured by Red Skull. Help came in form of Havok, Rogue and Scarlet Witch, who broke in to help him back to his feet again. In a blind fury, Magneto slays the entire fleet of S-Men assembled there as well as Skull himself with his enhanced power boosts from Mutant Growth Hormone.

Everyone present there thought his menace was end for good, only for the villain to re-appear as the terrifying Red Onslaught. As Red Onslaught, Red Skull spreads his message of hatred worldwide to wage a new "World War Hate". Overwhelmed by Onslaught's power, Wanda Maximoff briefly gave in to him and Magneto were tossed around to one of the camps where he finds Cyclops, Genesis and Kid Omega all captured. Genesis got stabbed by Ahab while Cyclops and Havok were fighting but then Colossus, Nightcrawler and Storm brings the cavalry of other heroes in.

In Los Angeles, The Avengers came across Plantman and are exposed to some sort of rage pheromone emitted by him. This caused Sam Wilson to insult Thor to get hit by Jarnbjorn, then Vision crashing Odinson through Quinjet and Doc Green getting angry. Sunfire suddenly attacks Wasp for no reason at all and then Iron Man finally put a stop to this madness by taking down Plantman. With other fractured teams of The Avengers, Inhumans and X-Men, Iron Man arrives to face Red Skull in his newest form but then the latter unleashes two Adamantium Stark Sentinels on them.

Skull had Tony secretly build those killing machines during Civil War under his evil influence to fight all heroes against his reign. When seriously outmatched by Stark Sentinels, Rogue suggested Doctor Strange and Scarlet Witch to cast a spell that would invert Skull's moral axis and let Charles Xavier take over to stop Onslaught but didn't work at first for Nova's lack of experience. They reassembled once again only to fall, when Magneto arrives with an army of super-villains to buy Strange and Wanda time to complete their inversion spell but Stephen is taken out and Doctor Doom stepped in to help complete the spell.

Now their moral axis reversed, major super-villains like Absorbing Man, Carnage, Deadpool, Enchantress, HobgoblinJack O'LanternLoki, Mystique and Sabretooth turned into heroes and Doom was gone. Skull's body was left behind and a stir caused among the heroes regarding whether to wake him up to free Xavier or let The Avengers take custody of him. Meanwhile, X-Men members of Jean Grey School For Higher Learning have gathered from Genosha by Evan Sabah Nur turned a new Apocalypse to rule entire mankind by releasing a gene bomb to wipe out existence of all humans from New York City.

Hulk – Asunder | Comics

Separated from his alter ego Doctor Bruce Banner during the unpleasant skirmish of Fear Itself, the Hulk starts living into the depths of Subterranea now. On the surface world, he was always feared and he never really understood if he was a hero or a monster. Here, he fights the good fight with the dangerous creature and monster that come into his way. Free from Banner's persona, he is now Hulk forever and knows exactly what he is.

Hulk – Asunder | Comics

Down here, he lives with a moloid tribe who are celebrating the green goliath's presence among them. Even though the elder of the tribe assures Hulk an undisturbed stay in here, he is not quite convinced yet. The welcome party for Hulk is soon interrupted by the unexpected arrival of a secret government sponsored team with their robotic drones and drills to eliminate mad scientists, called the Mad Squad, led by Amanda Von Doom.

Amanda seeks out Hulk's assistance in their current mission and that is to stop the now unstable scientist Bruce Banner who has become a great problem for them. Bruce is restlessly trying to re-invent the Incredible Hulk, which he believes is one of his greatest achievements over the years, by experimenting on various creatures on the island laboratory and turning every type of animal into gamma-irradiated monsters, causing menace to the people around.

Amanda is on charge of the operation to take Banner down for good. Hulk shows no interest in her cause and turns her down. But later, when his newly found adoptive family of moloids is attacked by Banner's creatures; a bipedal gamma-irradiated warthog duo called 26 and 27, Hulk decides to help Amanda on one condition; to face Bruce Banner by himself and finish all of this madness for good.

A date with his wife Betty Ross goes sore when she finds out that Banner actually came to a deserted tropical island for his own research purpose. He started his work there which was a neuclear testing site from the 50's. When his continuous effort of bringing out the Hulk from within fails, Banner entertains the idea of creating the gamma-bomb that gave birth to the green goliath in the first place.

Avengers – The Children's Crusade | Comics

As young hero Wiccan see his powers growing rapidly, he must find out where Scarlet Witch is to get help.

Debuting at a time when The Avengers were fallen and scattered, a young group of heroes decided to take mantle of their icons and become Young Avengers, formed by Hawkeye, Hulkling, Patriot, Speed, Stature, Vision and Wiccan. Together they fought Kang the Conqueror, in Civil War, Secret Invasion and during Siege of Asgard.

As they were taking on racial zealot group Sons of the Serpent, one of their members shot Hulkling. When Captain America, Iron Man and Ms. Marvel reach there, one terrorist threatens them all with a nuclear weapon strapped to his back. To protect his boyfriend, Billy Kaplan sets off a power surge, rendering all Serpent members comatose.

Given Billy have no idea of what he just did; The Avengers suggest that he stays with them as they do not want to deal with another Scarlet Witch situation and explained how Wanda Maximoff went crazy after losing her twin sons. Surprised by this revelation, Wiccan concludes that he and Speed are likely to be her lost siblings.

Also, he is frustrated that his idols never even bothered to investigate whether or not she was truly responsible and leaves. However, Cap beat him to home and convinced his parents to let him stay with The Avengers. On their way, Hulkling showed up insisting to stay by his side since they are partners and Captain America simply agrees.

In their two-bed room in Avengers Tower, Teddy Altman tries to convince Billy Kaplan to agree to let The Avengers test his power and rest of their Young Avengers teammates arrive to rescue him just then. Although he is flattered to see his friends care for him, Billy requests them to put him back in or else he will be hounded once again.

Stature suggests that they try to find Scarlet Witch instead so she knows that that her kids are alive and may be able to reverse her actions, possibly bringing her father back to life. Agreeing to her point, Magneto arrives out of nowhere to meet his grandsons and seek help from them to find his daughter as they are the only links to her.

When he attempted to take them to Wundagore Mountain in Transia, Patriot and rest of their team opposes only to be intervened by New Avengers. Wiccan tries to reason with them seeing Magneto and Wolverine quickly getting into a heated battle but when no one was ready to listen to him, he teleports all of his friends to Transia.

Patriot is upset at Billy as he has now made them all fugitives but Hawkeye states that they should stick together as a team. They start looking for clues at the grave of Magneto's former wife Magda and as soon as Wiccan begin to pick a trail of Wanda Maximoff, Speed races to nearby village area and ran into his uncle, Quicksilver.

What he does next is to race back at his father and starts throwing stakes at him, one of which impales a woman who looks like Wanda. It turns out to be a Doombot and everyone assumes that Doctor Doom has kept her a prisoner all along. Magneto believes that they couldn't find her until now probably because of Doom's powerful magic.

Meanwhile, The Avengers called in former member Wonder Man to help them find Wanda but he is not willing to help seeing Logan being too eager to kill her. After a heated exchange, He punched Wolverine down a level and he leaves to find her. Unwilling to help them find her or rejoin their ranks, Simon leaves briefly to find her as well.

Magneto suggests that they all invade Castle Doom but Patriot and Quicksilver opposes this idea of starting a war. Billy proposes to do a recon using magic and tries to do so at night even after everyone was against this idea. He eventually visits Latveria alone in a disguise but his cover is blown off by Wanda, who is betrothed to Doom.

Soon as they mentioned him, Doctor Doom appears and despite his belief, Wanda Maximoff was seemingly living here on her own free will. After knocking Wiccan out, Doom asks her to get married the next day. Outside of his castle, Magneto was making plans with Quicksilver and Young Avengers to storm his stronghold somehow.

Doom heals up Billy and relieves him off his powers as he explains how she came to him earlier seeking help. Before Magneto and his allies could lead an assault, The Avengers and Wonder Man arrive there. Curious to know about her past as Scarlet Witch and seeing Victor behaving differently, Wanda showed him out in her wedding dress.

When stepped outside, they see heroes are surrounded by an army of Doombots as they are trying to fight against Doom. Amidst this chaos, Wolverine sneaks up on Wanda and attempted to gut her down for what she did to millions of mutants before getting blasted off by Iron Lad, who has returned back from future to save Wiccan.

When things get heated up, he escapes into timestream with his friends and got back to the day Jack of Hearts blew up Avengers Mansion. They see Scott Lang AKA Ant-Man and they were able to save him before Jack explodes inevitably. Somehow they all return to present time and apparently Wanda Maximoff remembers everything now.

Regaining her powers, she conjures up a fleet of Kree ships and Ultron robots to attack her but her sons managed to calm her down. Beast, Hawkeye and Jessica Jones arrives to witness her reappearance and informs The Avengers. Young Avengers are worried that Logan is not ready to give her a second chance and intends to kill her.

Beast proposes that if she could restore powers of all depowered mutants who volunteers and they contacts X-Factor. Rictor agrees to be a guinea pig despite refusal from Madrox and even got his powers back. She intends to do that to all mutants who wants their power back and they all notices that X-Men are already here to get her.

A fight breaks down when The Avengers came to take custody of her and Wanda decides to seek help from Dr. Doom. She uses her godlike powers to access Life Force to undo her mistakes with help from her betrothed and Wiccan. Victor Von Doom stole her power to become omnipotent and gets opposed by all heroes.

Avengers – The Children's Crusade (Softcover)

Avengers – The Children's Crusade (Hardcover)

Set in motion following "Avengers Disassembled" event, Marvel Comics has been planning "The Children's Crusade" with writer Allan Heinberg (Young Avengers – Family Matters, Young Avengers – Sidekicks) and artist Jim Cheung (Astonishing X-Men – Life of X, Avengers & X-Men – Axis) on board long before it was published in 2012.

Though Young Avengers have been there during some recent major crossovers, they never had a definitive event of their own. In quest for Scarlet Witch, who disappeared after altering reality during "House of M" and then depowering millions of mutants in a whim, Speed and Wiccan has found their believed mother and reunited with her.

After a newly reformed Magneto learns of these two from Dr. Nemesis, he approached Cyclops to know more about them. Wolverine warns him to stay away from those kids before walking away but Erik Lehnsherr paid them a visit anyway. Following a tussle with The Avengers, he even managed to enlist their help in finding his daughter.

Tension among Maximoff family has been an all time high; especially between Magneto and Quicksilver, considering the former tried to kill the latter last time they met. Victor Von Doom coming out as real culprit behind falling of Avengers by manipulating Wanda from very beginning was a real surprise and so was return of Ant-Man.

Doctor Doom ascending to godhood and becoming even more powerful than he was before by stealing Beyonder's power before in "Secret Wars" was a predictable threat. In a way, "The Children's Crusade" has paved paths for "Avengers Vs. X-Men" event with a brief yet intense skirmish within two super-hero teams, which took place afterwards.
