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.126Please respect copyright.PENANAxpF7yoyB2W
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.126Please respect copyright.PENANAZyxzieftmx
"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.126Please respect copyright.PENANAg03PFuDaJ6
"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.126Please respect copyright.PENANAbCAZI6IxBD
Doom replied, turning his attention to Spider-Man.126Please respect copyright.PENANAPMf03jYbnO
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." 126Please respect copyright.PENANAaRlEWJ4YFN
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.126Please respect copyright.PENANA4aJbxVmO8v
Spider-Man: (said, trying to stall him)126Please respect copyright.PENANAwcMBKK1R33
"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!"126Please respect copyright.PENANAa2QdHjxbRe
Doom: (firing another beam at Spider-Man.)126Please respect copyright.PENANAsZrzU8yol3
Oh really? And who are these friends of yours? The Avengers? The Justice League? The X-Men? The Teen Titans?
The Powerpuff Girls? 126Please respect copyright.PENANApktuVZpk9w
Ha! They're no match for me and my cosmic power! Bring them on! I'll destroy them all!" 126Please respect copyright.PENANAOTZVcu2mxU
[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.]126Please respect copyright.PENANAEbiXylYgRu
Spiderman: "Spider-Man to Avengers Tower. Come in, Avengers Tower. Do you copy?" 126Please respect copyright.PENANA1uyzVd1N0H
He said into the device.
"This is Iron Man. What's up, Spidey?" A voice answered.126Please respect copyright.PENANAzrhaAEnEux
"Iron Man! Thank goodness! Listen, we have a situation here. 126Please respect copyright.PENANA0rVsEeNaJW
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.126Please respect copyright.PENANAbY7EOLCFiB
"Thanks, Iron Man. Hurry!" Spider-Man said.126Please respect copyright.PENANAjTUoE9I81F
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.126Please respect copyright.PENANAneQq4fBeCs
"Hey, Doom! How about you pick on someone your own size?" He taunted firing a mass of spider web at him!126Please respect copyright.PENANAoZUtGjqKeG
Doom ripped off the webbing and glared at Spider-Man.126Please respect copyright.PENANAVutMjKC5p2
"You insolent insect! You dare to interfere with my plans? You'll pay for that!" He roared.126Please respect copyright.PENANAtvZZlwjbuE
He charged at Spider-Man with his metal fists clenched.126Please respect copyright.PENANADmdVBAWiBp
Spider-Man dodged his punches and kicked him in the face.126Please respect copyright.PENANAPSKENFiucZ
Doom: Ow! That hurt!126Please respect copyright.PENANADDfbIt6vSB
Spiderman: You know what else hurts? This!" He said, shooting webbing into Doom's eyes.126Please respect copyright.PENANAdiIdGxSUNh
Doom screamed and tried to wipe off the webbing.126Please respect copyright.PENANAQQH8ti9kry
"Get this off me! You'll regret this, Spider-Man!" He shouted.126Please respect copyright.PENANAe3q52dNzPX
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.126Please respect copyright.PENANAMg2czLPGVx
"Is that a bird? Is that a plane? No, it's, it's Superman!" He hollared.126Please respect copyright.PENANAVuKvFRlAhk
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.126Please respect copyright.PENANAAr7q5wlcZy
"Spider-Man, are you okay?" Superman asked.126Please respect copyright.PENANAm9fyizAbK3
Spiderman: (agitated)126Please respect copyright.PENANAHiVgVbI00O
"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.126Please respect copyright.PENANAIhKFQXRNNy
"Great! The more the merrier!" Spider-Man said.126Please respect copyright.PENANACO1nGvqv5V
He turned to Doom, who had recovered from the webbing and was staring at the newcomers with rage.126Please respect copyright.PENANAOC5ZrvrYhZ
"Doom, meet the Justice League. Justice League, meet Doom. He's a jerk." Spider-Man introduced.126Please respect copyright.PENANAHJe5YsuyJj
"Doom does not care for your introductions. Doom only cares for your destruction!" Doom yelled.126Please respect copyright.PENANAEwa6INUghT
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.126Please respect copyright.PENANAzrgzsutKAx
"My mask! You ruined my mask! You'll pay for that!" He screamed.126Please respect copyright.PENANAa7DQOKztav
He threw his device at Superman, hoping to hit him with it. But quickly, Superman caught it and crushed it in his hands.126Please respect copyright.PENANAzHDbYr3oPo
"Sorry, Doom. Your toy is broken." Superman said.126Please respect copyright.PENANAwwrG8Vo15s
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.126Please respect copyright.PENANAEmXhu4j6nV
"Give up, Doom. It's over." Superman said.126Please respect copyright.PENANA0izAT30ndD
"Never! Doom never gives up! Doom never surrenders! Doom will fight to the end!" Doom shouted.126Please respect copyright.PENANAyOgSN6sdhL
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.126Please respect copyright.PENANAKof4gWX8ZI
"Sorry, Doom. But I don't like loose ends." Hawkeye said.126Please respect copyright.PENANAoI3xDVK6fo
Doom gasped and fell to the ground, dead.126Please respect copyright.PENANAhTtEh9T5gT
Spider-Man stared at Hawkeye in shock.126Please respect copyright.PENANAaJAnX46Im5
"Hawkeye? You killed him?" He asked.126Please respect copyright.PENANA7yp0Yi4nKE
Hawkeye shrugged.126Please respect copyright.PENANArMcc75odR9
"What? He was going to blow us all up anyway. I just saved us some time." He said.126Please respect copyright.PENANAcQu35QjP6p
Spider-Man shook his head in disbelief.126Please respect copyright.PENANAco7EGT4YRc
"That's not how we do things here. We don't kill our enemies. We capture them and bring them to justice." He said.126Please respect copyright.PENANAXWIxSRLiK4
Hawkeye rolled his eyes.126Please respect copyright.PENANA88yN9NCOnu
"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.126Please respect copyright.PENANApfkFejo4YS
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.126Please respect copyright.PENANArtjdMXYrfC
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.126Please respect copyright.PENANAb7X6LoKV3N
"Hey guys! Sorry we're late! We had some traffic issues." Iron Man said.126Please respect copyright.PENANAtlnKr1fwjL
Spider-Man smiled and waved at them.126Please respect copyright.PENANAHpW5Mo5fxN
"Hey guys! Thanks for coming! We could use some help here." He said.126Please respect copyright.PENANAuwtUO15uti
Iron Man looked around and saw the dead body of Doom and the now destroyed device.126Please respect copyright.PENANA2BSa3IKy4K
"Wow. Looks like you guys handled things pretty well without us." He said.126Please respect copyright.PENANAsAlG1mLg2F
Spider-Man pointed at Hawkeye.126Please respect copyright.PENANAS0L2nGcKnd
"Well, actually he did most of the work." He said.126Please respect copyright.PENANAR2Go4mUrBl
Iron Man looked at Hawkeye and raised an eyebrow.126Please respect copyright.PENANAfrIaG5LedP
"Hawkeye? You killed Doom?" He asked.126Please respect copyright.PENANAvltPjyxtBr
Hawkeye nodded proudly.126Please respect copyright.PENANADJhxXNI5sH
"Yup. I did." He said.126Please respect copyright.PENANAQOeY9WGh12
Iron Man shook his head in disapproval.126Please respect copyright.PENANABjsxweCahQ
"Hawkeye... You know we don't kill our enemies." He said.126Please respect copyright.PENANARxuKDhVkc9
Hawkeye sighed and repeated what he had told Spider-Man earlier.126Please respect copyright.PENANAUtVbpGqKDs
"Oh please. Don't give me that moral lecture..." He said.126Please respect copyright.PENANA1h7XVpES8Q
Iron Man: Hawkeye, I'm serious. Killing is not our way.126Please respect copyright.PENANAX0WM8OyNmX
Hawkeye: Well maybe it should be.126Please respect copyright.PENANAfVCZ34xrR0
Iron Man: Hawkeye, it shouldn't. Killing is wrong. It's against the law. It's against our code of honor.126Please respect copyright.PENANA1CDJezkXdF
Hawkeye: Code of honor? What code of honor? We're not knights in shining armor. We're soldiers. And soldiers kill their enemies.126Please respect copyright.PENANALXZjS4yINb
Iron Man: We're not soldiers, Hawkeye. We're heroes. And heroes don't kill.126Please respect copyright.PENANAo9W8CdsbAz
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. 126Please respect copyright.PENANAX9l7egtubn
Tell that to the people who will die tomorrow because of villains we let live today.126Please respect copyright.PENANA8re6us0PC9
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.126Please respect copyright.PENANArcPUksAyw8
Hawkeye: No, it will make us better than them. It will make us stronger. It will make us feared. It will make us respected.126Please respect copyright.PENANAZcmB0qfvgt
Iron Man: Feared? Respected? Is that what you want, Hawkeye? To be feared and respected? To be a killer?126Please respect copyright.PENANAdjooph31i3
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.126Please respect copyright.PENANAgdKXIXv8Nw
Iron Man: War? What war? There is no war, Hawkeye. There is only peace. And we're here to protect it.126Please respect copyright.PENANA7ACto9j5rD
Hawkeye: Peace? There is no peace, Iron Man. There is only chaos. And we're here to end it.126Please respect copyright.PENANAR6EaeZJm6k
Iron Man: Hawkeye, you've lost your mind. You've gone too far. You've crossed a line you can't uncross.126Please respect copyright.PENANAKoMxpCkXCH
Hawkeye: No, Iron Man. I've opened my eyes. I've gone far enough. I've crossed a line you can't cross.126Please respect copyright.PENANApQlagHYP32
The two heroes glare at each other, their eyes filled with anger and distrust.126Please respect copyright.PENANAXL1W3HkHLO
Spider-Man: Guys, guys! Calm down! This is not the time or the place for this! We have bigger problems to deal with!126Please respect copyright.PENANANrRw8lZLmT
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.126Please respect copyright.PENANAd03fIa6uWc
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.126Please respect copyright.PENANAGwTjo1Kfpg
Spider-Man: Look! Up in the sky!126Please respect copyright.PENANAyQVk9oRKP0
Batman: Oh, no it can't126Please respect copyright.PENANAdF5nnQG05m
be, not again!
Galactus, the world-eater, had arrived on Earth, looking for his stolen power.126Please respect copyright.PENANAzJT4MFlkcY
Galactus: Who dares to steal from Galactus? Who dares to defy Galactus? Who dares to face Galactus?126Please respect copyright.PENANAaouVojrysf
The heroes looked at each other in wonder and awe.126Please respect copyright.PENANAZaZ5dynKj5
Spider-Man: Uh-oh.126Please respect copyright.PENANAKCCip1DVAw
Batman: Oh crap!126Please respect copyright.PENANAbuh1PB0PEn
Galactus raised his hand and prepared to unleash his cosmic wrath on the planet.126Please respect copyright.PENANAwPtVoadqce
Galactus: Prepare to die, Earthlings!126Please respect copyright.PENANAme1OUFQqhY
The superheroes braced themselves for a battle to the end.126Please respect copyright.PENANAgbhHqmIRTc
Suddenly, a bright light flashed in front of them.126Please respect copyright.PENANARI8No5Aofk
Galactus: What is this?126Please respect copyright.PENANAzFhwcOXSjA
A portal opened in the air, and a figure stepped out of it.126Please respect copyright.PENANAIHlG6RgTBL
Figure: Greetings, Earthlings!126Please respect copyright.PENANAsxljgOB6HL
The heroes recognized him as Doctor Strange, the Sorcerer Supreme.126Please respect copyright.PENANAoKe9siEycd
Doctor Strange: I'm here to help!126Please respect copyright.PENANAQfwGfT5SwT
Galactus recognized him as well.126Please respect copyright.PENANAjROkvhYN1J
Galactus: You! You are the one who stole my power!126Please respect copyright.PENANAFUK8dExsfZ
Doctor Strange: Yes!126Please respect copyright.PENANAMdVnoIfjE3
Galactus: I am Galactus, why did you do it? What did you want with it?126Please respect copyright.PENANAm4Mdpx57CP
Doctor Strange: I did it to save the world, Galactus. I did it to stop you.126Please respect copyright.PENANANED5O8iHcu
Galactus: Stop me? How dare you try to stop me? You are nothing but a speck of dust in my eyes!126Please respect copyright.PENANAwwvEixmlf0
Doctor Strange: Maybe so, Galactus. But even a speck of dust can cause irritation.126Please respect copyright.PENANAGw7QiKUqjP
Doctor Strange raised his hands and chanted a spell.126Please respect copyright.PENANA86ho0P0VEf
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!126Please respect copyright.PENANAP5j0P6W8eV
A blast of mystical energy hit Galactus in the face, making him stagger back.126Please respect copyright.PENANAlcDSAQFVfX
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?126Please respect copyright.PENANAuVq1JiGArs
You think you can banish me with your pathetic words? You are sadly mistaken, Doctor Strange. 126Please respect copyright.PENANAFt023EQefT
You are doomed, Doctor Strange. You are dead! 126Please respect copyright.PENANAeNKM7og04A
Galactus raised his hand and prepared to unleash his cosmic wrath on Doctor Strange.126Please respect copyright.PENANAXATyrvxpEc
Galactus: Prepare to die, Sorcerer!126Please respect copyright.PENANAjPPmpTXnnv
Doctor Strange braced himself for the blow.126Please respect copyright.PENANAh0wS5wverA
Suddenly, a loud roar echoed in the air.126Please respect copyright.PENANAGNPE8DCNZH
Galactus: What is that?126Please respect copyright.PENANAPsHi8IsxxP
