When evidence of an approaching alien force surfaces, SHIELD Director Nick Fury sets out to assemble a defensive team, believing Earth’s survival depends on bringing its most powerful individuals together. Reed Richards and the Fantastic Four are recruited for their unmatched scientific expertise, while Spider-Man is brought in as New York’s proven street-level defender. Hank Pym, a brilliant but guarded scientist, is approached for his experimental size-altering technology, which he has kept hidden from the world. Their uneasy alliance becomes unavoidable when Black Bolt and Medusa arrives from Hidden City of Attilan with a warning: his exiled brother Maximus is leading an alien army toward Earth, intent on conquering the planet and establishing New York as his seat of power. Earth faces its greatest threat, and its heroes agree—reluctantly —to stand together as a united force.
