Atime of uncertainty and fear grips the world.

Sin, daughter of the Red Skull, has released the mysteriousSerpent from entombment at the bottom of the Marianas

Trench. The Serpents mystic hammer empowers Sin,transforming her into his herald, Skadi.

The Serpent summons his Worthy, causing seven additionalhammers to fall from the heavens and strike all over the world.

Each hammer transforms its destined wielder into anunstoppable engine of destruction to rampage in the Serpents

name.

Learning of the Serpents escape, Odin and the Asgardians

withdraw from Earth to begin preparations to burn the planet inorder to destroy the Serpent.

While the Avengers rally to humanitys defense, the Serpentsfear-fed power reaches critical mass, and, rejuvenated, he raises

his dark castle and advances on Asgard.

When Thor attempts to intercede, the Serpent reveals to himthat he is Odins brother, the true, exiled King of Asgard

before casting Thor away. The Thunder God comes to groundin the midst of the hammer-wielding Hulk and Thingand thebattle is joined!
