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.436Please respect copyright.PENANAlLmo0Y3vTH
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.436Please respect copyright.PENANA0b1bl8GWlS
"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.436Please respect copyright.PENANAbwDykj08BY
"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.436Please respect copyright.PENANAqpmfZR0IAb
Doom replied, turning his attention to Spider-Man.436Please respect copyright.PENANAI4hN2aSMDD
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." 436Please respect copyright.PENANADK2CTJGkyO
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.436Please respect copyright.PENANAWRimeoxqYm
Spider-Man: (said, trying to stall him)436Please respect copyright.PENANArnqvEKnvxk
"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!"436Please respect copyright.PENANArxN9PeVlgj
Doom: (firing another beam at Spider-Man.)436Please respect copyright.PENANA3r3DhRkaZC
Oh really? And who are these friends of yours? The Avengers? The Justice League? The X-Men? The Teen Titans?
The Powerpuff Girls? 436Please respect copyright.PENANAhNrqBhh6we
Ha! They're no match for me and my cosmic power! Bring them on! I'll destroy them all!" 436Please respect copyright.PENANA1qKGV7g9tc
[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.]436Please respect copyright.PENANASJc1yTf5Wx
Spiderman: "Spider-Man to Avengers Tower. Come in, Avengers Tower. Do you copy?" 436Please respect copyright.PENANAPepZvLBEDn
He said into the device.
"This is Iron Man. What's up, Spidey?" A voice answered.436Please respect copyright.PENANAakitR1XeRX
"Iron Man! Thank goodness! Listen, we have a situation here. 436Please respect copyright.PENANAi0InKxMvn4
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.436Please respect copyright.PENANAsR6rcQ4dsu
"Thanks, Iron Man. Hurry!" Spider-Man said.436Please respect copyright.PENANADxAzW5wFAg
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.436Please respect copyright.PENANAo9W7ql3bNH
"Hey, Doom! How about you pick on someone your own size?" He taunted firing a mass of spider web at him!436Please respect copyright.PENANACpigp1t9ZC
Doom ripped off the webbing and glared at Spider-Man.436Please respect copyright.PENANAt4M2hX50Sn
"You insolent insect! You dare to interfere with my plans? You'll pay for that!" He roared.436Please respect copyright.PENANAxcCpO22hRd
He charged at Spider-Man with his metal fists clenched.436Please respect copyright.PENANAj3vjpzOJhF
Spider-Man dodged his punches and kicked him in the face.436Please respect copyright.PENANAd9gE0cLmcG
Doom: Ow! That hurt!436Please respect copyright.PENANAhYpvIL6eXs
Spiderman: You know what else hurts? This!" He said, shooting webbing into Doom's eyes.436Please respect copyright.PENANAgC8C8i4nvH
Doom screamed and tried to wipe off the webbing.436Please respect copyright.PENANA3FAt9aO55B
"Get this off me! You'll regret this, Spider-Man!" He shouted.436Please respect copyright.PENANA5kWFgaJemK
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.436Please respect copyright.PENANAkQf5puRBta
"Is that a bird? Is that a plane? No, it's, it's Superman!" He hollared.436Please respect copyright.PENANAjc3kdlSa0Q
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.436Please respect copyright.PENANAgaCMpnylyS
"Spider-Man, are you okay?" Superman asked.436Please respect copyright.PENANA7Q3oJ75R93
Spiderman: (agitated)436Please respect copyright.PENANAmucCuZpoU6
"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.436Please respect copyright.PENANAsAQuLMy30o
"Great! The more the merrier!" Spider-Man said.436Please respect copyright.PENANAECnXjQIlZQ
He turned to Doom, who had recovered from the webbing and was staring at the newcomers with rage.436Please respect copyright.PENANAxQF5TqNTpk
"Doom, meet the Justice League. Justice League, meet Doom. He's a jerk." Spider-Man introduced.436Please respect copyright.PENANAMD3eSHJkg7
"Doom does not care for your introductions. Doom only cares for your destruction!" Doom yelled.436Please respect copyright.PENANAwwLnDKzVze
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.436Please respect copyright.PENANAXCgaqTx6Jb
"My mask! You ruined my mask! You'll pay for that!" He screamed.436Please respect copyright.PENANAwk2OWKe2yk
He threw his device at Superman, hoping to hit him with it. But quickly, Superman caught it and crushed it in his hands.436Please respect copyright.PENANA6KeyoUGkAZ
"Sorry, Doom. Your toy is broken." Superman said.436Please respect copyright.PENANAeLZKgoisFU
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.436Please respect copyright.PENANAZmaS7zxceX
"Give up, Doom. It's over." Superman said.436Please respect copyright.PENANAa873squoAj
"Never! Doom never gives up! Doom never surrenders! Doom will fight to the end!" Doom shouted.436Please respect copyright.PENANApluZMbgOWU
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.436Please respect copyright.PENANAWD2HdPHSCu
"Sorry, Doom. But I don't like loose ends." Hawkeye said.436Please respect copyright.PENANAO5h1ZgNFNw
Doom gasped and fell to the ground, dead.436Please respect copyright.PENANAqQlpIbxywO
Spider-Man stared at Hawkeye in shock.436Please respect copyright.PENANAGdl43QdtYe
"Hawkeye? You killed him?" He asked.436Please respect copyright.PENANAQ4wNonq6eH
Hawkeye shrugged.436Please respect copyright.PENANA0R2xWAbu7D
"What? He was going to blow us all up anyway. I just saved us some time." He said.436Please respect copyright.PENANAbJoC7gPI0h
Spider-Man shook his head in disbelief.436Please respect copyright.PENANA3b8lREyOP4
"That's not how we do things here. We don't kill our enemies. We capture them and bring them to justice." He said.436Please respect copyright.PENANAokBjUqstOZ
Hawkeye rolled his eyes.436Please respect copyright.PENANApDqfAIkov7
"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.436Please respect copyright.PENANAIK5xbBy0xw
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.436Please respect copyright.PENANAUZzcurPnDR
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.436Please respect copyright.PENANA7ci1M8UQHO
"Hey guys! Sorry we're late! We had some traffic issues." Iron Man said.436Please respect copyright.PENANASzvQaVYRLs
Spider-Man smiled and waved at them.436Please respect copyright.PENANAcr21z6B13c
"Hey guys! Thanks for coming! We could use some help here." He said.436Please respect copyright.PENANAhpfrugjI9k
Iron Man looked around and saw the dead body of Doom and the now destroyed device.436Please respect copyright.PENANApKOjNgbImY
"Wow. Looks like you guys handled things pretty well without us." He said.436Please respect copyright.PENANAyhzvOJckEM
Spider-Man pointed at Hawkeye.436Please respect copyright.PENANAJob0P2HMVL
"Well, actually he did most of the work." He said.436Please respect copyright.PENANA0asuMIF6lL
Iron Man looked at Hawkeye and raised an eyebrow.436Please respect copyright.PENANAcPlkhCo9qk
"Hawkeye? You killed Doom?" He asked.436Please respect copyright.PENANAuvOY0vkiJ8
Hawkeye nodded proudly.436Please respect copyright.PENANAkDAVXHj6wa
"Yup. I did." He said.436Please respect copyright.PENANArYqMUiwgoK
Iron Man shook his head in disapproval.436Please respect copyright.PENANAqeRPym13NM
"Hawkeye... You know we don't kill our enemies." He said.436Please respect copyright.PENANAJWTCeO0z2e
Hawkeye sighed and repeated what he had told Spider-Man earlier.436Please respect copyright.PENANA9vOQqi54pn
"Oh please. Don't give me that moral lecture..." He said.436Please respect copyright.PENANApb5KX0vR2Z
Iron Man: Hawkeye, I'm serious. Killing is not our way.436Please respect copyright.PENANAwzdCub7bJ9
Hawkeye: Well maybe it should be.436Please respect copyright.PENANAtYgPJPgF1j
Iron Man: Hawkeye, it shouldn't. Killing is wrong. It's against the law. It's against our code of honor.436Please respect copyright.PENANA77GLW8lAKm
Hawkeye: Code of honor? What code of honor? We're not knights in shining armor. We're soldiers. And soldiers kill their enemies.436Please respect copyright.PENANAhGgwdQeUgm
Iron Man: We're not soldiers, Hawkeye. We're heroes. And heroes don't kill.436Please respect copyright.PENANAtprSgrf6FD
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. 436Please respect copyright.PENANAm9CcFtAFrh
Tell that to the people who will die tomorrow because of villains we let live today.436Please respect copyright.PENANAgyk2ehnMri
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.436Please respect copyright.PENANAnOIuEo5xr8
Hawkeye: No, it will make us better than them. It will make us stronger. It will make us feared. It will make us respected.436Please respect copyright.PENANAsOJgAFHO4x
Iron Man: Feared? Respected? Is that what you want, Hawkeye? To be feared and respected? To be a killer?436Please respect copyright.PENANAUnEiamvW8T
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.436Please respect copyright.PENANA6H7g02hQ8i
Iron Man: War? What war? There is no war, Hawkeye. There is only peace. And we're here to protect it.436Please respect copyright.PENANA3CPcNgCmJL
Hawkeye: Peace? There is no peace, Iron Man. There is only chaos. And we're here to end it.436Please respect copyright.PENANAVsGah2ANCe
Iron Man: Hawkeye, you've lost your mind. You've gone too far. You've crossed a line you can't uncross.436Please respect copyright.PENANAbkSP5s515F
Hawkeye: No, Iron Man. I've opened my eyes. I've gone far enough. I've crossed a line you can't cross.436Please respect copyright.PENANA2ff5Js1WKi
The two heroes glare at each other, their eyes filled with anger and distrust.436Please respect copyright.PENANAwfir7iokBa
Spider-Man: Guys, guys! Calm down! This is not the time or the place for this! We have bigger problems to deal with!436Please respect copyright.PENANAWg5ywrd7X1
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.436Please respect copyright.PENANAEV6Qc7dL3d
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.436Please respect copyright.PENANA65lbJWe3Wa
Spider-Man: Look! Up in the sky!436Please respect copyright.PENANAx9eSGQOxQo
Batman: Oh, no it can't436Please respect copyright.PENANAm6QKEYduJL
be, not again!
Galactus, the world-eater, had arrived on Earth, looking for his stolen power.436Please respect copyright.PENANAreINadDt6g
Galactus: Who dares to steal from Galactus? Who dares to defy Galactus? Who dares to face Galactus?436Please respect copyright.PENANAeyI5djd1rJ
The heroes looked at each other in wonder and awe.436Please respect copyright.PENANAzmIINPU6vs
Spider-Man: Uh-oh.436Please respect copyright.PENANARatzDWiQlE
Batman: Oh crap!436Please respect copyright.PENANAfOaiLSxP2w
Galactus raised his hand and prepared to unleash his cosmic wrath on the planet.436Please respect copyright.PENANAdxbUfEIcAA
Galactus: Prepare to die, Earthlings!436Please respect copyright.PENANAkigSrTqHlA
The superheroes braced themselves for a battle to the end.436Please respect copyright.PENANAnfbG6SZ9zB
Suddenly, a bright light flashed in front of them.436Please respect copyright.PENANAZ2TDz4rOnJ
Galactus: What is this?436Please respect copyright.PENANAeLXLwDUDnN
A portal opened in the air, and a figure stepped out of it.436Please respect copyright.PENANAWlmxMraFS1
Figure: Greetings, Earthlings!436Please respect copyright.PENANAYgL99Jjdh1
The heroes recognized him as Doctor Strange, the Sorcerer Supreme.436Please respect copyright.PENANARwVVk9oeu9
Doctor Strange: I'm here to help!436Please respect copyright.PENANACmE2sJsYgY
Galactus recognized him as well.436Please respect copyright.PENANAUQ8eWWsjhx
Galactus: You! You are the one who stole my power!436Please respect copyright.PENANAUm7GqUmEyj
Doctor Strange: Yes!436Please respect copyright.PENANAMZDb4vqgDc
Galactus: I am Galactus, why did you do it? What did you want with it?436Please respect copyright.PENANADofPqbSZPs
Doctor Strange: I did it to save the world, Galactus. I did it to stop you.436Please respect copyright.PENANAU1O1I3Y26w
Galactus: Stop me? How dare you try to stop me? You are nothing but a speck of dust in my eyes!436Please respect copyright.PENANA1UYYMpGbGX
Doctor Strange: Maybe so, Galactus. But even a speck of dust can cause irritation.436Please respect copyright.PENANAyrulYaIum7
Doctor Strange raised his hands and chanted a spell.436Please respect copyright.PENANAhrHZoJQmnd
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!436Please respect copyright.PENANAUhwvWkWb6B
A blast of mystical energy hit Galactus in the face, making him stagger back.436Please respect copyright.PENANAuTjYitgU1K
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?436Please respect copyright.PENANARTyna0fOty
You think you can banish me with your pathetic words? You are sadly mistaken, Doctor Strange. 436Please respect copyright.PENANAK36h0HLHPk
You are doomed, Doctor Strange. You are dead! 436Please respect copyright.PENANA2qol99C7qw
Galactus raised his hand and prepared to unleash his cosmic wrath on Doctor Strange.436Please respect copyright.PENANANECQqMRKsM
Galactus: Prepare to die, Sorcerer!436Please respect copyright.PENANAH6cFTpeA9v
Doctor Strange braced himself for the blow.436Please respect copyright.PENANAKcYCHqYNi7
Suddenly, a loud roar echoed in the air.436Please respect copyright.PENANAhJLPzvOFan
Galactus: What is that?436Please respect copyright.PENANA0Ief5wWbrN
