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.250Please respect copyright.PENANAso2zqN5VMW
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.250Please respect copyright.PENANAgdCkOpqB66
"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.250Please respect copyright.PENANA5Dt6U7G2f7
"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.250Please respect copyright.PENANAS58xn45vsz
Doom replied, turning his attention to Spider-Man.250Please respect copyright.PENANAAiG1mEErOl
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." 250Please respect copyright.PENANAArllwIG4tQ
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.250Please respect copyright.PENANAx0kvbAdapQ
Spider-Man: (said, trying to stall him)250Please respect copyright.PENANAoyQ9dqfBYp
"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!"250Please respect copyright.PENANAvm3G71q25u
Doom: (firing another beam at Spider-Man.)250Please respect copyright.PENANALSERPKH80t
Oh really? And who are these friends of yours? The Avengers? The Justice League? The X-Men? The Teen Titans?
The Powerpuff Girls? 250Please respect copyright.PENANAg4UerTmkqC
Ha! They're no match for me and my cosmic power! Bring them on! I'll destroy them all!" 250Please respect copyright.PENANA49Ba1T5jll
[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.]250Please respect copyright.PENANA3GCrJxDMFX
Spiderman: "Spider-Man to Avengers Tower. Come in, Avengers Tower. Do you copy?" 250Please respect copyright.PENANADeaY8iBbzH
He said into the device.
"This is Iron Man. What's up, Spidey?" A voice answered.250Please respect copyright.PENANAb3IMUfDQdc
"Iron Man! Thank goodness! Listen, we have a situation here. 250Please respect copyright.PENANAYjQf0qcxmi
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.250Please respect copyright.PENANAGl7VsQSwpR
"Thanks, Iron Man. Hurry!" Spider-Man said.250Please respect copyright.PENANAasr0Nm0cAB
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.250Please respect copyright.PENANAR3jbI0dxZL
"Hey, Doom! How about you pick on someone your own size?" He taunted firing a mass of spider web at him!250Please respect copyright.PENANAjcIKR7usXD
Doom ripped off the webbing and glared at Spider-Man.250Please respect copyright.PENANAdIR10uFTY5
"You insolent insect! You dare to interfere with my plans? You'll pay for that!" He roared.250Please respect copyright.PENANANj7GABiLOs
He charged at Spider-Man with his metal fists clenched.250Please respect copyright.PENANARDuYNL524z
Spider-Man dodged his punches and kicked him in the face.250Please respect copyright.PENANAqrUIkC5egt
Doom: Ow! That hurt!250Please respect copyright.PENANADDC8hb12CU
Spiderman: You know what else hurts? This!" He said, shooting webbing into Doom's eyes.250Please respect copyright.PENANAjYNm5dD14i
Doom screamed and tried to wipe off the webbing.250Please respect copyright.PENANAvW71vTqZDc
"Get this off me! You'll regret this, Spider-Man!" He shouted.250Please respect copyright.PENANA50lLVakT2G
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.250Please respect copyright.PENANAw47c2YeTER
"Is that a bird? Is that a plane? No, it's, it's Superman!" He hollared.250Please respect copyright.PENANAL8OZBd2Tsd
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.250Please respect copyright.PENANA2AQVClhRff
"Spider-Man, are you okay?" Superman asked.250Please respect copyright.PENANAg722lbJCcs
Spiderman: (agitated)250Please respect copyright.PENANAWAhQde2A8W
"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.250Please respect copyright.PENANAhG4P07SzHQ
"Great! The more the merrier!" Spider-Man said.250Please respect copyright.PENANAY2Mar8LsDl
He turned to Doom, who had recovered from the webbing and was staring at the newcomers with rage.250Please respect copyright.PENANAKXhaWlLUS0
"Doom, meet the Justice League. Justice League, meet Doom. He's a jerk." Spider-Man introduced.250Please respect copyright.PENANAZzQ7Tto3p8
"Doom does not care for your introductions. Doom only cares for your destruction!" Doom yelled.250Please respect copyright.PENANAkumnppOlul
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.250Please respect copyright.PENANAnUFr8inNNU
"My mask! You ruined my mask! You'll pay for that!" He screamed.250Please respect copyright.PENANAuMthnI5VAM
He threw his device at Superman, hoping to hit him with it. But quickly, Superman caught it and crushed it in his hands.250Please respect copyright.PENANAFcNiDhaHfS
"Sorry, Doom. Your toy is broken." Superman said.250Please respect copyright.PENANAG4zKlcaFaG
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.250Please respect copyright.PENANAt78dVVwL3V
"Give up, Doom. It's over." Superman said.250Please respect copyright.PENANAmPNUpTtytV
"Never! Doom never gives up! Doom never surrenders! Doom will fight to the end!" Doom shouted.250Please respect copyright.PENANAwhfL6yHR0i
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.250Please respect copyright.PENANAWcYZCTF1sa
"Sorry, Doom. But I don't like loose ends." Hawkeye said.250Please respect copyright.PENANA3knTO3ElrI
Doom gasped and fell to the ground, dead.250Please respect copyright.PENANA31QxVc7ClF
Spider-Man stared at Hawkeye in shock.250Please respect copyright.PENANAkbAcbbeF5o
"Hawkeye? You killed him?" He asked.250Please respect copyright.PENANAF6uGLj8vNI
Hawkeye shrugged.250Please respect copyright.PENANAy7QPMhsB5v
"What? He was going to blow us all up anyway. I just saved us some time." He said.250Please respect copyright.PENANAob4dbZWF1V
Spider-Man shook his head in disbelief.250Please respect copyright.PENANAmddF96oCwk
"That's not how we do things here. We don't kill our enemies. We capture them and bring them to justice." He said.250Please respect copyright.PENANAGXYqueRdgJ
Hawkeye rolled his eyes.250Please respect copyright.PENANAuIvfRKs0fN
"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.250Please respect copyright.PENANAWYCeuWA1ut
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.250Please respect copyright.PENANA3AjuOEv8g4
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.250Please respect copyright.PENANA1O1IOUwoeF
"Hey guys! Sorry we're late! We had some traffic issues." Iron Man said.250Please respect copyright.PENANAYrQy6ctnUH
Spider-Man smiled and waved at them.250Please respect copyright.PENANAW63EO1m85M
"Hey guys! Thanks for coming! We could use some help here." He said.250Please respect copyright.PENANAT7UZg5IyBI
Iron Man looked around and saw the dead body of Doom and the now destroyed device.250Please respect copyright.PENANArQh3xkPfgI
"Wow. Looks like you guys handled things pretty well without us." He said.250Please respect copyright.PENANAfSkagq2yw7
Spider-Man pointed at Hawkeye.250Please respect copyright.PENANAUzU6NBEnaJ
"Well, actually he did most of the work." He said.250Please respect copyright.PENANAZpZeeoVWOd
Iron Man looked at Hawkeye and raised an eyebrow.250Please respect copyright.PENANAfoJrC8Jzcn
"Hawkeye? You killed Doom?" He asked.250Please respect copyright.PENANA3P3uRJ95bs
Hawkeye nodded proudly.250Please respect copyright.PENANAbAQdSlyhIE
"Yup. I did." He said.250Please respect copyright.PENANA0VcZcE2bhP
Iron Man shook his head in disapproval.250Please respect copyright.PENANAklv25Mvjdx
"Hawkeye... You know we don't kill our enemies." He said.250Please respect copyright.PENANAOatT9DQIbr
Hawkeye sighed and repeated what he had told Spider-Man earlier.250Please respect copyright.PENANALCwASyJKYi
"Oh please. Don't give me that moral lecture..." He said.250Please respect copyright.PENANA6CPQ5goHtJ
Iron Man: Hawkeye, I'm serious. Killing is not our way.250Please respect copyright.PENANA2XswYzwiMB
Hawkeye: Well maybe it should be.250Please respect copyright.PENANAwZGZEaFxuP
Iron Man: Hawkeye, it shouldn't. Killing is wrong. It's against the law. It's against our code of honor.250Please respect copyright.PENANAnrLjJl65vG
Hawkeye: Code of honor? What code of honor? We're not knights in shining armor. We're soldiers. And soldiers kill their enemies.250Please respect copyright.PENANAoSYx6PJU2T
Iron Man: We're not soldiers, Hawkeye. We're heroes. And heroes don't kill.250Please respect copyright.PENANAilry6rOWLt
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. 250Please respect copyright.PENANAUlyAja3sn3
Tell that to the people who will die tomorrow because of villains we let live today.250Please respect copyright.PENANAAS1ziMVWLj
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.250Please respect copyright.PENANAcj4tpw7aLI
Hawkeye: No, it will make us better than them. It will make us stronger. It will make us feared. It will make us respected.250Please respect copyright.PENANAGSPEk2lymL
Iron Man: Feared? Respected? Is that what you want, Hawkeye? To be feared and respected? To be a killer?250Please respect copyright.PENANA73nzr5U6Xy
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.250Please respect copyright.PENANAGO56VBx8yJ
Iron Man: War? What war? There is no war, Hawkeye. There is only peace. And we're here to protect it.250Please respect copyright.PENANAJgjJMhMTLx
Hawkeye: Peace? There is no peace, Iron Man. There is only chaos. And we're here to end it.250Please respect copyright.PENANAb9qjeMV228
Iron Man: Hawkeye, you've lost your mind. You've gone too far. You've crossed a line you can't uncross.250Please respect copyright.PENANAD8tz9orIZn
Hawkeye: No, Iron Man. I've opened my eyes. I've gone far enough. I've crossed a line you can't cross.250Please respect copyright.PENANAQQcatAGiJe
The two heroes glare at each other, their eyes filled with anger and distrust.250Please respect copyright.PENANAIFKXG4FZcF
Spider-Man: Guys, guys! Calm down! This is not the time or the place for this! We have bigger problems to deal with!250Please respect copyright.PENANAevEyWWUizd
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.250Please respect copyright.PENANAzrvtt5k0kt
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.250Please respect copyright.PENANASAPGNZ70kN
Spider-Man: Look! Up in the sky!250Please respect copyright.PENANAQNURmLiVJh
Batman: Oh, no it can't250Please respect copyright.PENANARTEk0GViIU
be, not again!
Galactus, the world-eater, had arrived on Earth, looking for his stolen power.250Please respect copyright.PENANAx1GVkED7gz
Galactus: Who dares to steal from Galactus? Who dares to defy Galactus? Who dares to face Galactus?250Please respect copyright.PENANA6ts7m5Fzn1
The heroes looked at each other in wonder and awe.250Please respect copyright.PENANAlyHuTLzVP1
Spider-Man: Uh-oh.250Please respect copyright.PENANAYIruh3UDEU
Batman: Oh crap!250Please respect copyright.PENANAGYTDVxSFqU
Galactus raised his hand and prepared to unleash his cosmic wrath on the planet.250Please respect copyright.PENANAz72libwMQM
Galactus: Prepare to die, Earthlings!250Please respect copyright.PENANATV5M4N9nES
The superheroes braced themselves for a battle to the end.250Please respect copyright.PENANADpHPqKM2Vi
Suddenly, a bright light flashed in front of them.250Please respect copyright.PENANAfYZm0oGY2r
Galactus: What is this?250Please respect copyright.PENANASxOwSWoILQ
A portal opened in the air, and a figure stepped out of it.250Please respect copyright.PENANAdCZYoo2C9e
Figure: Greetings, Earthlings!250Please respect copyright.PENANAk0jk6bCRN7
The heroes recognized him as Doctor Strange, the Sorcerer Supreme.250Please respect copyright.PENANA292Gb3l3aL
Doctor Strange: I'm here to help!250Please respect copyright.PENANAbit6fIPHt9
Galactus recognized him as well.250Please respect copyright.PENANAQ6c7SDtnro
Galactus: You! You are the one who stole my power!250Please respect copyright.PENANALyKuoMXqoP
Doctor Strange: Yes!250Please respect copyright.PENANATIpUdq8w4Q
Galactus: I am Galactus, why did you do it? What did you want with it?250Please respect copyright.PENANARGQhx0QuV7
Doctor Strange: I did it to save the world, Galactus. I did it to stop you.250Please respect copyright.PENANAwwB05fNxO2
Galactus: Stop me? How dare you try to stop me? You are nothing but a speck of dust in my eyes!250Please respect copyright.PENANAani0nBNryM
Doctor Strange: Maybe so, Galactus. But even a speck of dust can cause irritation.250Please respect copyright.PENANA5KiSHuaRXO
Doctor Strange raised his hands and chanted a spell.250Please respect copyright.PENANA88kvagPxKX
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!250Please respect copyright.PENANA5soJot1EMF
A blast of mystical energy hit Galactus in the face, making him stagger back.250Please respect copyright.PENANAsFYm1vymZk
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?250Please respect copyright.PENANAT6tY2fImRT
You think you can banish me with your pathetic words? You are sadly mistaken, Doctor Strange. 250Please respect copyright.PENANAAmxaUEfTsu
You are doomed, Doctor Strange. You are dead! 250Please respect copyright.PENANAO4sKQSpFtp
Galactus raised his hand and prepared to unleash his cosmic wrath on Doctor Strange.250Please respect copyright.PENANAlyLfl6q3lz
Galactus: Prepare to die, Sorcerer!250Please respect copyright.PENANA0JwRtMrbAg
Doctor Strange braced himself for the blow.250Please respect copyright.PENANAGEYW7JZrxn
Suddenly, a loud roar echoed in the air.250Please respect copyright.PENANAMOvUzdHbyd
Galactus: What is that?250Please respect copyright.PENANA4Q6mcyA82A
