Ring in the Dark Reign as Luke Cage’s baby girl goes missing, kidnapped by a Skrull on the loose – and the former Power Man will do anything it takes to find her!

Next, it’s an all-out, hero-vs.-villain extravaganza as the New Avengers get their game face on to take down new top cop Norman Osborn’s Dark Avengers – but the former Green Goblin has a chilling surprise up his sleeve!

Then, Doctor Strange returns, and the search for his successor begins – but will it be the end of the Avengers? Desperately seeking the inheritor of his power, he reunites with his teammates to discover the anointed one before someone else – someone evil – stakes their claim for mastery of the mystic arts!

Plus: The Mighty Thor and both the New and Dark Avengers join forces against the Frost Giant Ymir in a battle that will have terrifying consequences for the Marvel Universe – and for these heroes – in the days to come!
