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.325Please respect copyright.PENANAnmym1tKWE7
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.325Please respect copyright.PENANA5wfBz8Px3H
"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.325Please respect copyright.PENANAWU2aKgyNNz
"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.325Please respect copyright.PENANAA4U05oH3L7
Doom replied, turning his attention to Spider-Man.325Please respect copyright.PENANAvuJZINwtgt
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." 325Please respect copyright.PENANAbCWlkMJiqy
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.325Please respect copyright.PENANAeVNGSO3OEz
Spider-Man: (said, trying to stall him)325Please respect copyright.PENANAbrYORt9HCF
"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!"325Please respect copyright.PENANAyTipFd86nr
Doom: (firing another beam at Spider-Man.)325Please respect copyright.PENANA5andgWFRS7
Oh really? And who are these friends of yours? The Avengers? The Justice League? The X-Men? The Teen Titans?
The Powerpuff Girls? 325Please respect copyright.PENANAiCb5IeFUig
Ha! They're no match for me and my cosmic power! Bring them on! I'll destroy them all!" 325Please respect copyright.PENANAzv5v92zW0C
[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.]325Please respect copyright.PENANAL44dOrH7sP
Spiderman: "Spider-Man to Avengers Tower. Come in, Avengers Tower. Do you copy?" 325Please respect copyright.PENANAzlDodTELV2
He said into the device.
"This is Iron Man. What's up, Spidey?" A voice answered.325Please respect copyright.PENANAAkZw6STCfi
"Iron Man! Thank goodness! Listen, we have a situation here. 325Please respect copyright.PENANAofVLk1iyME
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.325Please respect copyright.PENANAbbGSsLzEfD
"Thanks, Iron Man. Hurry!" Spider-Man said.325Please respect copyright.PENANAX0cx6sQ1AK
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.325Please respect copyright.PENANAE1VaRBfyju
"Hey, Doom! How about you pick on someone your own size?" He taunted firing a mass of spider web at him!325Please respect copyright.PENANAemJCDdDMdt
Doom ripped off the webbing and glared at Spider-Man.325Please respect copyright.PENANAwiZiKFr1RJ
"You insolent insect! You dare to interfere with my plans? You'll pay for that!" He roared.325Please respect copyright.PENANAQa2Sx5z0AJ
He charged at Spider-Man with his metal fists clenched.325Please respect copyright.PENANA5bAtL1TbbJ
Spider-Man dodged his punches and kicked him in the face.325Please respect copyright.PENANAcRaLOCaQno
Doom: Ow! That hurt!325Please respect copyright.PENANAu959m5mtHx
Spiderman: You know what else hurts? This!" He said, shooting webbing into Doom's eyes.325Please respect copyright.PENANAsGtKiotMk0
Doom screamed and tried to wipe off the webbing.325Please respect copyright.PENANAHfEA582Jbk
"Get this off me! You'll regret this, Spider-Man!" He shouted.325Please respect copyright.PENANAnAm7CkhrUF
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.325Please respect copyright.PENANAJoxFZRFMif
"Is that a bird? Is that a plane? No, it's, it's Superman!" He hollared.325Please respect copyright.PENANATP3X5n1fRL
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.325Please respect copyright.PENANA4tXGGi5KcT
"Spider-Man, are you okay?" Superman asked.325Please respect copyright.PENANA5tnoGFVrf6
Spiderman: (agitated)325Please respect copyright.PENANAafZ7Ah971N
"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.325Please respect copyright.PENANALmWGHPgUsL
"Great! The more the merrier!" Spider-Man said.325Please respect copyright.PENANAr6wj3k5Mxo
He turned to Doom, who had recovered from the webbing and was staring at the newcomers with rage.325Please respect copyright.PENANAb5vFSdskDS
"Doom, meet the Justice League. Justice League, meet Doom. He's a jerk." Spider-Man introduced.325Please respect copyright.PENANAOH3pumNi1p
"Doom does not care for your introductions. Doom only cares for your destruction!" Doom yelled.325Please respect copyright.PENANAIlxSe0OEoG
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.325Please respect copyright.PENANAm3oQTZfg2N
"My mask! You ruined my mask! You'll pay for that!" He screamed.325Please respect copyright.PENANAKzyekY2bwH
He threw his device at Superman, hoping to hit him with it. But quickly, Superman caught it and crushed it in his hands.325Please respect copyright.PENANAnKFYwjKAPC
"Sorry, Doom. Your toy is broken." Superman said.325Please respect copyright.PENANAGYghS6HnPW
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.325Please respect copyright.PENANAomKGQNKxae
"Give up, Doom. It's over." Superman said.325Please respect copyright.PENANAjMVLZODytL
"Never! Doom never gives up! Doom never surrenders! Doom will fight to the end!" Doom shouted.325Please respect copyright.PENANARv34MxdF0i
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.325Please respect copyright.PENANAqIf9iI4ruz
"Sorry, Doom. But I don't like loose ends." Hawkeye said.325Please respect copyright.PENANA43M5DIKjFE
Doom gasped and fell to the ground, dead.325Please respect copyright.PENANAfBCF9l1zOL
Spider-Man stared at Hawkeye in shock.325Please respect copyright.PENANAvnxNlPTk1s
"Hawkeye? You killed him?" He asked.325Please respect copyright.PENANAaM8zsQSN38
Hawkeye shrugged.325Please respect copyright.PENANA3u1BuImwZf
"What? He was going to blow us all up anyway. I just saved us some time." He said.325Please respect copyright.PENANAHREdBm4mrh
Spider-Man shook his head in disbelief.325Please respect copyright.PENANAmprBuS2fD5
"That's not how we do things here. We don't kill our enemies. We capture them and bring them to justice." He said.325Please respect copyright.PENANAw8hoRZtq8y
Hawkeye rolled his eyes.325Please respect copyright.PENANAoh7MGFncjy
"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.325Please respect copyright.PENANAFMV40EPAw4
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.325Please respect copyright.PENANArCyEEYyUuC
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.325Please respect copyright.PENANAw1vNspaEEI
"Hey guys! Sorry we're late! We had some traffic issues." Iron Man said.325Please respect copyright.PENANAlCDyEu2Z1I
Spider-Man smiled and waved at them.325Please respect copyright.PENANAOO5wLfqEc1
"Hey guys! Thanks for coming! We could use some help here." He said.325Please respect copyright.PENANA8Tj3r0gSKB
Iron Man looked around and saw the dead body of Doom and the now destroyed device.325Please respect copyright.PENANAFMYreP5vy7
"Wow. Looks like you guys handled things pretty well without us." He said.325Please respect copyright.PENANA1KMM6L7WLf
Spider-Man pointed at Hawkeye.325Please respect copyright.PENANAgugBCxnivp
"Well, actually he did most of the work." He said.325Please respect copyright.PENANA2jy4bLa2hV
Iron Man looked at Hawkeye and raised an eyebrow.325Please respect copyright.PENANA8ZAL5jzcah
"Hawkeye? You killed Doom?" He asked.325Please respect copyright.PENANAmC7T0UN3YA
Hawkeye nodded proudly.325Please respect copyright.PENANANpJurGEOvk
"Yup. I did." He said.325Please respect copyright.PENANAZICt0UuKQQ
Iron Man shook his head in disapproval.325Please respect copyright.PENANAkf1OXdLhYJ
"Hawkeye... You know we don't kill our enemies." He said.325Please respect copyright.PENANAY36oxmzEc5
Hawkeye sighed and repeated what he had told Spider-Man earlier.325Please respect copyright.PENANAwkXpKJHFA5
"Oh please. Don't give me that moral lecture..." He said.325Please respect copyright.PENANAnIC681b06W
Iron Man: Hawkeye, I'm serious. Killing is not our way.325Please respect copyright.PENANACCIaeNlXNT
Hawkeye: Well maybe it should be.325Please respect copyright.PENANA9FWu8qMzz2
Iron Man: Hawkeye, it shouldn't. Killing is wrong. It's against the law. It's against our code of honor.325Please respect copyright.PENANATq7Y9fmR3w
Hawkeye: Code of honor? What code of honor? We're not knights in shining armor. We're soldiers. And soldiers kill their enemies.325Please respect copyright.PENANAHfMdp5NuGl
Iron Man: We're not soldiers, Hawkeye. We're heroes. And heroes don't kill.325Please respect copyright.PENANAhu3ltD9mRZ
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. 325Please respect copyright.PENANA4UygRI9S0x
Tell that to the people who will die tomorrow because of villains we let live today.325Please respect copyright.PENANAgOGwluNCqU
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.325Please respect copyright.PENANAk2HBz7nDP1
Hawkeye: No, it will make us better than them. It will make us stronger. It will make us feared. It will make us respected.325Please respect copyright.PENANAare3m0GYZp
Iron Man: Feared? Respected? Is that what you want, Hawkeye? To be feared and respected? To be a killer?325Please respect copyright.PENANAyildwQHK9h
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.325Please respect copyright.PENANAiMUyb8Nvfa
Iron Man: War? What war? There is no war, Hawkeye. There is only peace. And we're here to protect it.325Please respect copyright.PENANAtu3cz9vw4q
Hawkeye: Peace? There is no peace, Iron Man. There is only chaos. And we're here to end it.325Please respect copyright.PENANAIdIbNpU9MD
Iron Man: Hawkeye, you've lost your mind. You've gone too far. You've crossed a line you can't uncross.325Please respect copyright.PENANA3Wi6oDmTfK
Hawkeye: No, Iron Man. I've opened my eyes. I've gone far enough. I've crossed a line you can't cross.325Please respect copyright.PENANABrHPPgbwFu
The two heroes glare at each other, their eyes filled with anger and distrust.325Please respect copyright.PENANAlZq4miynI4
Spider-Man: Guys, guys! Calm down! This is not the time or the place for this! We have bigger problems to deal with!325Please respect copyright.PENANAwAXhSBUniy
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.325Please respect copyright.PENANA6UtDke25VV
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.325Please respect copyright.PENANAX630sTkhJW
Spider-Man: Look! Up in the sky!325Please respect copyright.PENANA8Gd8fA2Wfz
Batman: Oh, no it can't325Please respect copyright.PENANA7PPeNm09Is
be, not again!
Galactus, the world-eater, had arrived on Earth, looking for his stolen power.325Please respect copyright.PENANA9d8ZZGJLoW
Galactus: Who dares to steal from Galactus? Who dares to defy Galactus? Who dares to face Galactus?325Please respect copyright.PENANAV8lKLYMTgd
The heroes looked at each other in wonder and awe.325Please respect copyright.PENANA2pjhiYbSmk
Spider-Man: Uh-oh.325Please respect copyright.PENANAQ89UWjJoDB
Batman: Oh crap!325Please respect copyright.PENANA22vClNE2a1
Galactus raised his hand and prepared to unleash his cosmic wrath on the planet.325Please respect copyright.PENANA6cHZ0pF2rG
Galactus: Prepare to die, Earthlings!325Please respect copyright.PENANA3sJhDxPqZs
The superheroes braced themselves for a battle to the end.325Please respect copyright.PENANAarIYbPwi7d
Suddenly, a bright light flashed in front of them.325Please respect copyright.PENANAQFUYKcpSSa
Galactus: What is this?325Please respect copyright.PENANAASrvPHK2KZ
A portal opened in the air, and a figure stepped out of it.325Please respect copyright.PENANAlO7LvT3Zxk
Figure: Greetings, Earthlings!325Please respect copyright.PENANAMnzKYNrSo5
The heroes recognized him as Doctor Strange, the Sorcerer Supreme.325Please respect copyright.PENANA1hRJFvBzoo
Doctor Strange: I'm here to help!325Please respect copyright.PENANA9vorIjtOBN
Galactus recognized him as well.325Please respect copyright.PENANAypjL7IaWVb
Galactus: You! You are the one who stole my power!325Please respect copyright.PENANAyPTMEcfOzt
Doctor Strange: Yes!325Please respect copyright.PENANAntwcDvavQO
Galactus: I am Galactus, why did you do it? What did you want with it?325Please respect copyright.PENANAdhzOzHuPWg
Doctor Strange: I did it to save the world, Galactus. I did it to stop you.325Please respect copyright.PENANAE3SBnUhQnF
Galactus: Stop me? How dare you try to stop me? You are nothing but a speck of dust in my eyes!325Please respect copyright.PENANAbEDAx2yurA
Doctor Strange: Maybe so, Galactus. But even a speck of dust can cause irritation.325Please respect copyright.PENANAUOOLbpN2W1
Doctor Strange raised his hands and chanted a spell.325Please respect copyright.PENANAJAwDexJaLF
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!325Please respect copyright.PENANAbYpYuGy1z0
A blast of mystical energy hit Galactus in the face, making him stagger back.325Please respect copyright.PENANAHx4inVzP1e
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?325Please respect copyright.PENANATXKDOrrCzJ
You think you can banish me with your pathetic words? You are sadly mistaken, Doctor Strange. 325Please respect copyright.PENANAQdFbR5W4Im
You are doomed, Doctor Strange. You are dead! 325Please respect copyright.PENANArFCNIRzluV
Galactus raised his hand and prepared to unleash his cosmic wrath on Doctor Strange.325Please respect copyright.PENANABRmxLvuyD1
Galactus: Prepare to die, Sorcerer!325Please respect copyright.PENANAdqCaIC8JwR
Doctor Strange braced himself for the blow.325Please respect copyright.PENANAsLL0qIUDBO
Suddenly, a loud roar echoed in the air.325Please respect copyright.PENANAS2kxldr2sl
Galactus: What is that?325Please respect copyright.PENANAfVrWsKzdUs
