Spider-Man was swinging through the streets of New York, when he sensed a sudden surge of energy from the Empire State Building.
He quickly and silently made his way, only to find a scene of chaos and utter destruction. A man in a black suit and a metal mask was standing on the roof, holding a device that looked like a giant laser cannon.
He was laughing maniacally as he fired beams of red light at the city, causing explosions and fires everywhere.227Please respect copyright.PENANA8kxg64p8TO
Spider-Man recognized him as Dr. Doom, a notorious villain who had clashed with the mighty Fantastic Four and other heroes before. He wondered what he was doing here, and what his plan was. He decided to confront him, hoping to stop him before he caused more damage.227Please respect copyright.PENANAGmGgeVK8LB
"Hey, Doom! What's the big idea? You know you can't just go around blasting things with your fancy new toy, right?" Spider-Man shouted as he landed on the roof.227Please respect copyright.PENANA3afBE0h6G4
"Spider-Man! How nice of you to join me! I was hoping you would show up. You see, this is not just a toy. This is my new weapon of terrible mass destruction, powered by the cosmic energy I stole from Galactus himself.227Please respect copyright.PENANAEp3dIqkOv1
Doom replied, turning his attention to Spider-Man.227Please respect copyright.PENANAnZUcYh3Hh0
With this, I can destroy anything and anyone I desire, including you and your pathetic friends!"
Galactus, the world eater? You stole his power? Are you insane? Do you have any idea what you're messing with? Spider-Man asked, feeling a chill run down his spine.
"Of course I do. I'm not insane, I'm brilliant. And I'm about to show you how brilliant I am, by wiping out this city and everyone in it." 227Please respect copyright.PENANAy6Ui4IOvDZ
Then I'll move on to the rest of the world, until I'm the only intelligent one left standing. And then I'll rule the universe as its supreme lord! Doom declared, raising his device again.227Please respect copyright.PENANAU2BfTEuheJ
Spider-Man: (said, trying to stall him)227Please respect copyright.PENANAESDeoV8j40
"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hold on there, buddy! That's not how it works! You can't just kill everyone and expect to rule anything! That's not ruling, that's being a jerk!
And besides, you're not the only one with friends here. I have some too, and they're on their way!"227Please respect copyright.PENANABmyNo3CCDb
Doom: (firing another beam at Spider-Man.)227Please respect copyright.PENANAfUoAhT0utb
Oh really? And who are these friends of yours? The Avengers? The Justice League? The X-Men? The Teen Titans?
The Powerpuff Girls? 227Please respect copyright.PENANAbeegN0f9vr
Ha! They're no match for me and my cosmic power! Bring them on! I'll destroy them all!" 227Please respect copyright.PENANAEfTS6arnpz
[Spider-Man dodged the beam, but it hit a nearby helicopter, causing it to crash into a building. Spider-Man gasped, feeling guilty for not being able to save the people inside. He realized he couldn't handle this alone. He needed help. He reached for his communicator, hoping it still worked.]227Please respect copyright.PENANAyDnqB6ESbQ
Spiderman: "Spider-Man to Avengers Tower. Come in, Avengers Tower. Do you copy?" 227Please respect copyright.PENANACUYBJJvPLW
He said into the device.
"This is Iron Man. What's up, Spidey?" A voice answered.227Please respect copyright.PENANAkVwZAxBgZn
"Iron Man! Thank goodness! Listen, we have a situation here. 227Please respect copyright.PENANA8uLudeFVn8
Dr. Doom is on top of the Empire State Building with a cosmic-powered laser cannon. He's trying to destroy the city and the world. I need backup!" Spider-Man yelled...
"Dr. Doom? Cosmic power? That sounds kinda bad. Don't worry, Spidey. We're on our way Iron Man said.227Please respect copyright.PENANAStc7LHRNBN
"Thanks, Iron Man. Hurry!" Spider-Man said.227Please respect copyright.PENANArFCIljcHD2
He looked up at Doom, who was still firing at random targets. He knew he had to keep him busy until the Avengers arrived. He webbed up hoping to disable it.227Please respect copyright.PENANAiUU2fz66q3
"Hey, Doom! How about you pick on someone your own size?" He taunted firing a mass of spider web at him!227Please respect copyright.PENANAyILk4FK5xD
Doom ripped off the webbing and glared at Spider-Man.227Please respect copyright.PENANAStn8dRKX1e
"You insolent insect! You dare to interfere with my plans? You'll pay for that!" He roared.227Please respect copyright.PENANAUHuOwa2YmG
He charged at Spider-Man with his metal fists clenched.227Please respect copyright.PENANAyuajXXVUQb
Spider-Man dodged his punches and kicked him in the face.227Please respect copyright.PENANABtOT8hcw5j
Doom: Ow! That hurt!227Please respect copyright.PENANAZKFlDymQfW
Spiderman: You know what else hurts? This!" He said, shooting webbing into Doom's eyes.227Please respect copyright.PENANAWC7x4bx3hM
Doom screamed and tried to wipe off the webbing.227Please respect copyright.PENANAicaW2wxdpq
"Get this off me! You'll regret this, Spider-Man!" He shouted.227Please respect copyright.PENANAJkTC7ASQOk
Spider-Man smirked and prepared to deliver another blow, when he heard a loud boom from above. He looked up and saw a red and blue blur zooming towards them.227Please respect copyright.PENANAy4EmFbRfpE
"Is that a bird? Is that a plane? No, it's, it's Superman!" He hollared.227Please respect copyright.PENANAGoKh6VdS7R
Superman landed on the roof, followed by Batman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, Green Lantern, Aquaman, and Cyborg. They were the Justice League, the world's greatest heroes.227Please respect copyright.PENANAgp875OxLUZ
"Spider-Man, are you okay?" Superman asked.227Please respect copyright.PENANAsaMRkOpmbX
Spiderman: (agitated)227Please respect copyright.PENANAZp4myTeKLy
"I'm fine, thanks. But we have a problem here. Dr. Doom has a cosmic powered laser cannon and he's trying to destroy the world with it!
"We know. We heard your distress call. We're here to help." Superman said.227Please respect copyright.PENANAVFmtferfj7
"Great! The more the merrier!" Spider-Man said.227Please respect copyright.PENANARA126yTtFO
He turned to Doom, who had recovered from the webbing and was staring at the newcomers with rage.227Please respect copyright.PENANAivKTZgI3ZX
"Doom, meet the Justice League. Justice League, meet Doom. He's a jerk." Spider-Man introduced.227Please respect copyright.PENANASJfHvsYoMf
"Doom does not care for your introductions. Doom only cares for your destruction!" Doom yelled.227Please respect copyright.PENANADjCA585XNl
He fired his device at the heroes, but Superman intercepted it with his heat vision, deflecting it back at him. Doom dodged it, but it hit his mask, cracking it open. Doom gasped and covered his face with his hands.227Please respect copyright.PENANAGDM0kLgExV
"My mask! You ruined my mask! You'll pay for that!" He screamed.227Please respect copyright.PENANAkwCfs75y5l
He threw his device at Superman, hoping to hit him with it. But quickly, Superman caught it and crushed it in his hands.227Please respect copyright.PENANAR2LDpRgOVh
"Sorry, Doom. Your toy is broken." Superman said.227Please respect copyright.PENANAgeZRqVPFiX
Doom growled and lunged at Superman, trying to claw his face with his metal fingers. But Superman grabbed his wrist and twisted it, making him drop to his knees in pain.227Please respect copyright.PENANAf4z9eVLLiw
"Give up, Doom. It's over." Superman said.227Please respect copyright.PENANAjOHTwbtsiz
"Never! Doom never gives up! Doom never surrenders! Doom will fight to the end!" Doom shouted.227Please respect copyright.PENANAnBMiVbiCrq
He reached for a button on his belt, hoping to activate a self-destruct mechanism that would take them all with him. But before he could press it, he felt a sharp pain in his chest. He looked down and saw an arrow sticking out of his heart. He looked up and saw Hawkeye standing on the edge of the roof, holding a bow and arrow.227Please respect copyright.PENANANQEKaXxwng
"Sorry, Doom. But I don't like loose ends." Hawkeye said.227Please respect copyright.PENANAScbcrGChEG
Doom gasped and fell to the ground, dead.227Please respect copyright.PENANA7rp7hIBUXY
Spider-Man stared at Hawkeye in shock.227Please respect copyright.PENANAC98q1uBhjl
"Hawkeye? You killed him?" He asked.227Please respect copyright.PENANAd6QmcESKMK
Hawkeye shrugged.227Please respect copyright.PENANAGb7Sci7ary
"What? He was going to blow us all up anyway. I just saved us some time." He said.227Please respect copyright.PENANAELZ7txb212
Spider-Man shook his head in disbelief.227Please respect copyright.PENANAZMmsfeVu2F
"That's not how we do things here. We don't kill our enemies. We capture them and bring them to justice." He said.227Please respect copyright.PENANAAFrggwYCev
Hawkeye rolled his eyes.227Please respect copyright.PENANA3jdxuAC3sq
"Oh please. Don't give me that moral lecture. You know as well as I do that some villains are beyond redemption. They're better off dead." He said.227Please respect copyright.PENANAGYsCFqQd3x
Spider-Man frowned and was about to argue with him, when he heard another loud boom from above. He looked up and saw a jet flying towards them. It was the Quinjet, the Avengers' vehicle.227Please respect copyright.PENANAcCjVl9zB0b
It landed on the roof and opened its doors, revealing Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Hulk, Black Widow, Ant-Man, Wasp, Black Panther, Vision, Scarlet Witch, Falcon and War Machine. They were the Avengers, Earth's ultimate, badass superheroes.227Please respect copyright.PENANAhQqV4BI0th
"Hey guys! Sorry we're late! We had some traffic issues." Iron Man said.227Please respect copyright.PENANAKIKnTiFQzN
Spider-Man smiled and waved at them.227Please respect copyright.PENANAPwFmrzXVAV
"Hey guys! Thanks for coming! We could use some help here." He said.227Please respect copyright.PENANAGICMvFd3UH
Iron Man looked around and saw the dead body of Doom and the now destroyed device.227Please respect copyright.PENANAbfkzbtPduQ
"Wow. Looks like you guys handled things pretty well without us." He said.227Please respect copyright.PENANARicVuqJSoj
Spider-Man pointed at Hawkeye.227Please respect copyright.PENANA6DvQqEgTCY
"Well, actually he did most of the work." He said.227Please respect copyright.PENANABppYlATKfm
Iron Man looked at Hawkeye and raised an eyebrow.227Please respect copyright.PENANA3D4TeFnLYf
"Hawkeye? You killed Doom?" He asked.227Please respect copyright.PENANAYxOzEKthlu
Hawkeye nodded proudly.227Please respect copyright.PENANAQ0R9ONysu4
"Yup. I did." He said.227Please respect copyright.PENANAKUBzkrX82e
Iron Man shook his head in disapproval.227Please respect copyright.PENANAzIiJWWHWKn
"Hawkeye... You know we don't kill our enemies." He said.227Please respect copyright.PENANA0D4MZAYdPn
Hawkeye sighed and repeated what he had told Spider-Man earlier.227Please respect copyright.PENANAGwxNAFl4Do
"Oh please. Don't give me that moral lecture..." He said.227Please respect copyright.PENANAGtwxmW47go
Iron Man: Hawkeye, I'm serious. Killing is not our way.227Please respect copyright.PENANAIzABV6VJtX
Hawkeye: Well maybe it should be.227Please respect copyright.PENANAuwvmcsuOt9
Iron Man: Hawkeye, it shouldn't. Killing is wrong. It's against the law. It's against our code of honor.227Please respect copyright.PENANAxe4be4mv76
Hawkeye: Code of honor? What code of honor? We're not knights in shining armor. We're soldiers. And soldiers kill their enemies.227Please respect copyright.PENANAj3eFOyFUO8
Iron Man: We're not soldiers, Hawkeye. We're heroes. And heroes don't kill.227Please respect copyright.PENANAm41zmPl6ep
Hawkeye: Heroes don't kill? Tell that to the people who died because of Doom. Tell that to the people who die every day because of villains like him. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAjQ5EqDWQsW
Tell that to the people who will die tomorrow because of villains we let live today.227Please respect copyright.PENANAdSURDSPDZ3
Iron Man: Hawkeye, you're not making any sense. Killing Doom won't bring back the dead. It won't stop the evil. It will only make us like them.227Please respect copyright.PENANAzY4vYJArlV
Hawkeye: No, it will make us better than them. It will make us stronger. It will make us feared. It will make us respected.227Please respect copyright.PENANA67x2VF2gdM
Iron Man: Feared? Respected? Is that what you want, Hawkeye? To be feared and respected? To be a killer?227Please respect copyright.PENANAmp59zKG2sF
Hawkeye: Yes, Iron Man. That's exactly what I want. And you should want it too. Because that's the only way we can win this war.227Please respect copyright.PENANA3YUcg1Petb
Iron Man: War? What war? There is no war, Hawkeye. There is only peace. And we're here to protect it.227Please respect copyright.PENANAcOfTCI0HrS
Hawkeye: Peace? There is no peace, Iron Man. There is only chaos. And we're here to end it.227Please respect copyright.PENANAPJadPd6WrE
Iron Man: Hawkeye, you've lost your mind. You've gone too far. You've crossed a line you can't uncross.227Please respect copyright.PENANAuR2iThDnLl
Hawkeye: No, Iron Man. I've opened my eyes. I've gone far enough. I've crossed a line you can't cross.227Please respect copyright.PENANAI2CuJZIV3d
The two heroes glare at each other, their eyes filled with anger and distrust.227Please respect copyright.PENANA704m5aO9u0
Spider-Man: Guys, guys! Calm down! This is not the time or the place for this! We have bigger problems to deal with!227Please respect copyright.PENANAUnzhpxidUy
Superman: He's right, guys.
This is not the time or the place for this! We have to stick together to defeat destructive villians when they pose threats to our society.227Please respect copyright.PENANAZMFgfQVsvd
Batman grins, yeah, what Superman said...
Suddenly, a tremendous, and overpowering, roaring sound and massive explosions were heard.
The three heroes pointed at the sky, where a huge shadow was looming over them.227Please respect copyright.PENANAYTNSdBImue
Spider-Man: Look! Up in the sky!227Please respect copyright.PENANAUjcM9A8EnV
Batman: Oh, no it can't227Please respect copyright.PENANARbh041BL9D
be, not again!
Galactus, the world-eater, had arrived on Earth, looking for his stolen power.227Please respect copyright.PENANAHKpi0icCO6
Galactus: Who dares to steal from Galactus? Who dares to defy Galactus? Who dares to face Galactus?227Please respect copyright.PENANAZXs1f8YztI
The heroes looked at each other in wonder and awe.227Please respect copyright.PENANAnVa0hRXxb3
Spider-Man: Uh-oh.227Please respect copyright.PENANAK7qgiQx9HZ
Batman: Oh crap!227Please respect copyright.PENANA1gbn9yniDG
Galactus raised his hand and prepared to unleash his cosmic wrath on the planet.227Please respect copyright.PENANAS19GLVCuEv
Galactus: Prepare to die, Earthlings!227Please respect copyright.PENANAonMFrfgr0Z
The superheroes braced themselves for a battle to the end.227Please respect copyright.PENANAtpNCxaugf1
Suddenly, a bright light flashed in front of them.227Please respect copyright.PENANAYzJq4Zo7xg
Galactus: What is this?227Please respect copyright.PENANAHLpxgv6HmR
A portal opened in the air, and a figure stepped out of it.227Please respect copyright.PENANAJ3D9de90WB
Figure: Greetings, Earthlings!227Please respect copyright.PENANAN5RVj0PRDB
The heroes recognized him as Doctor Strange, the Sorcerer Supreme.227Please respect copyright.PENANAPPxcOrjSXz
Doctor Strange: I'm here to help!227Please respect copyright.PENANAvFJmYLEVRW
Galactus recognized him as well.227Please respect copyright.PENANAo1EJjJFV7t
Galactus: You! You are the one who stole my power!227Please respect copyright.PENANAiGM5KtD0Jy
Doctor Strange: Yes!227Please respect copyright.PENANAedMc5b37Lk
Galactus: I am Galactus, why did you do it? What did you want with it?227Please respect copyright.PENANAHYBcrDK1iy
Doctor Strange: I did it to save the world, Galactus. I did it to stop you.227Please respect copyright.PENANANq4vGqRZwf
Galactus: Stop me? How dare you try to stop me? You are nothing but a speck of dust in my eyes!227Please respect copyright.PENANAEtROHjKJ4t
Doctor Strange: Maybe so, Galactus. But even a speck of dust can cause irritation.227Please respect copyright.PENANAsDKx8epYrn
Doctor Strange raised his hands and chanted a spell.227Please respect copyright.PENANAC3ceCeVa9y
Doctor Strange: By the hoary hosts of Hoggoth! By the crimson bands of Cyttorak! By the flames of Faltine! By the power of Vishanti! I command you to leave this world alone!227Please respect copyright.PENANAfDOrkJ3NfN
A blast of mystical energy hit Galactus in the face, making him stagger back.227Please respect copyright.PENANAJUO03d36kK
Galactus: Aargh! You insolent worm! You think you can hurt me with your puny magic? You think you can defy me with your feeble will?227Please respect copyright.PENANALhHcJEPccI
You think you can banish me with your pathetic words? You are sadly mistaken, Doctor Strange. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAHNT5uuz3hS
You are doomed, Doctor Strange. You are dead! 227Please respect copyright.PENANAFXiLWKCu4J
Galactus raised his hand and prepared to unleash his cosmic wrath on Doctor Strange.227Please respect copyright.PENANACjPqBIXwcI
Galactus: Prepare to die, Sorcerer!227Please respect copyright.PENANAoSjpVLFKp4
Doctor Strange braced himself for the blow.227Please respect copyright.PENANAnY75Fq5IRZ
Suddenly, a loud roar echoed in the air.227Please respect copyright.PENANA8uUZumuBVF
Galactus: What is that?227Please respect copyright.PENANA6HxZfUuVk2
