The nine realms might sound excitingly diverse, in theory, but Thor has grown bored of listening to the God's bicker and decided to wander the expanse of Midgard; Viking territory. Humans were at least entertaining enough to wage wars against themselves...and that was, perhaps, all that interested Thor until he met Sigrid. A woman that didn't swoon at his very presence was an oddity indeed, and the relationship they developed would linger through the centuries; both haunting and reviving Thor's love of the human world that mortals called 'Earth'.

Look 'bad luck' up in the dictionary. Go on. We'll wait. See there? That picture of an awkward college student tripping over his own feet? That's Peter Parker. He's majoring in chemical engineering, and by some stroke of (you guessed it) bad luck, the only elective available that works with his timetable is literature. Peter HATES literature, but there's a girl in his class that makes it bearable. Not that he'd ever get the courage to talk to her. Especially not with his role as Spider-Man filling up his days, and a new hero (Protonslaught) cutting in on his turf. It seems like nothing can go right for our friendly neighbourhood college student. -------- Amazing cover by EndlessHeights

There was a time in which The Hulk could be controlled, when Bruce was still a part of him and he was able to direct the monster's anger towards those that deserved it. His curse didn't seem so terrible during this brief expanse of time. He was part of a team, The Avengers, and they accepted him fully...but that time had long passed. The Hulk had grown too intelligent, and now he was a plague upon the earth. He ravaged, murdered, and Bruce was left in a helpless state with no way to control the beast that lurked within him... That is, until he met Riley; a gas station worker with anger management issues.

Who do you trust more to drive you to a destination? Who do you trust more to defend your civil liberties on the field of combat? Man or machine? That is the question that dominates the current landscape of technological innovation. Tony Stark seeks to empower mankind by developing cutting edge products designed to protect human life through advanced armour systems and non-lethal weaponry, as well as defending its interests as the Invincible Iron Man. However, he promptly finds himself at odds with mechanical engineer Jo Kimble, who is determined to replace people in dangerous situations with next-generation robotic drones, so that human life needn't be put at risk so constantly. With the shadow of something sinister looming over their corporate competition, they'll find out that the worst isn't one or the other, but both.

During the late 1930s to the the mid 1940s, the world was faced with a conflict the likes of which had never been seen or fathomed by mankind before. The fate of billions of humans beings was dependant on the outcome, but fortunately the Nazi Regime was toppled and their worldwide genocide halted. That was true for Steve Rogers...until he found himself dropped into a world where swastikas were strewn across every building, Nazism dominated the world as the sole hegemonic order, and his oldest foe ruled as the Fuhrer.

Jenna was abandoned on the doors of Xavier's school for gifted youngsters two weeks after her sixth birthday, and that's the only memory she has of her real family. They were nothing but a blur in her mind, and she had learned to accept that. However, the powers that they had rejected her for were of, apparently, some interest to S.H.I.E.L.D. They hired her to protect a Wakandan ambassador, and this ultimately lead to a terrifying run-in with the Winter Soldier. Years later they meet again, but he's a completely different person. Will she be able to forgive him for the nightmare's their meeting brought her?

Natasha was raised to be an assassin. She endured years of torturous training to become one of the deadliest killers in Russia...but she wasn't the only one. Chinese operatives had gathered information on the Black Widow program and created their own to combat it. Li was one of the many, but specifically chosen to analyse Russia's most deadly assassin...and eliminate her.

The future is gone, but the past may still be salvaged.
