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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAqkggesAgd5
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAzpEOizbH1A
"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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAU1oOjHqJuH
"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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAyy0c1cmR9B
Doom replied, turning his attention to Spider-Man.408Please respect copyright.PENANAnY3eUSOWV4
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." 408Please respect copyright.PENANA48huzfylau
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANArEQsSiXr2p
Spider-Man: (said, trying to stall him)408Please respect copyright.PENANAwaSRSQwddG
"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!"408Please respect copyright.PENANAXM0Hu2twgd
Doom: (firing another beam at Spider-Man.)408Please respect copyright.PENANAb9t0RcPhjL
Oh really? And who are these friends of yours? The Avengers? The Justice League? The X-Men? The Teen Titans?
The Powerpuff Girls? 408Please respect copyright.PENANAOYxnm78Hwq
Ha! They're no match for me and my cosmic power! Bring them on! I'll destroy them all!" 408Please respect copyright.PENANAMB85hNUhhl
[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.]408Please respect copyright.PENANAyAWecgsU6s
Spiderman: "Spider-Man to Avengers Tower. Come in, Avengers Tower. Do you copy?" 408Please respect copyright.PENANA6N3ziYvSqB
He said into the device.
"This is Iron Man. What's up, Spidey?" A voice answered.408Please respect copyright.PENANAhbXRTfaiFF
"Iron Man! Thank goodness! Listen, we have a situation here. 408Please respect copyright.PENANA6guwODfetb
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAS83q3RfCIU
"Thanks, Iron Man. Hurry!" Spider-Man said.408Please respect copyright.PENANAPdxzShewZh
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANA96vv6qll81
"Hey, Doom! How about you pick on someone your own size?" He taunted firing a mass of spider web at him!408Please respect copyright.PENANAPKIMsREwSb
Doom ripped off the webbing and glared at Spider-Man.408Please respect copyright.PENANANuzzQFcQ2y
"You insolent insect! You dare to interfere with my plans? You'll pay for that!" He roared.408Please respect copyright.PENANA7xtmvq3GSv
He charged at Spider-Man with his metal fists clenched.408Please respect copyright.PENANAzHy6G7hqpe
Spider-Man dodged his punches and kicked him in the face.408Please respect copyright.PENANArjGatClSPX
Doom: Ow! That hurt!408Please respect copyright.PENANA2qfq8A0uqg
Spiderman: You know what else hurts? This!" He said, shooting webbing into Doom's eyes.408Please respect copyright.PENANAWoPauvbtbU
Doom screamed and tried to wipe off the webbing.408Please respect copyright.PENANAbp64o91hE3
"Get this off me! You'll regret this, Spider-Man!" He shouted.408Please respect copyright.PENANAg850YgREuV
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAzEmhrFSXOw
"Is that a bird? Is that a plane? No, it's, it's Superman!" He hollared.408Please respect copyright.PENANAEzi5Nj45Q5
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAKmbD0NgdST
"Spider-Man, are you okay?" Superman asked.408Please respect copyright.PENANAeg99bXJIZC
Spiderman: (agitated)408Please respect copyright.PENANAHhsSe0H7Zw
"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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAOKm3sRgNua
"Great! The more the merrier!" Spider-Man said.408Please respect copyright.PENANAlmIADFnVvt
He turned to Doom, who had recovered from the webbing and was staring at the newcomers with rage.408Please respect copyright.PENANAxaqlKSj4Zl
"Doom, meet the Justice League. Justice League, meet Doom. He's a jerk." Spider-Man introduced.408Please respect copyright.PENANABVX4zKK4l8
"Doom does not care for your introductions. Doom only cares for your destruction!" Doom yelled.408Please respect copyright.PENANA7btNrHu6jM
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAnYP0mwTe59
"My mask! You ruined my mask! You'll pay for that!" He screamed.408Please respect copyright.PENANAJHounZ5v56
He threw his device at Superman, hoping to hit him with it. But quickly, Superman caught it and crushed it in his hands.408Please respect copyright.PENANAscdDFQGUwn
"Sorry, Doom. Your toy is broken." Superman said.408Please respect copyright.PENANARg8WNNYokO
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANA3Vi1Hy9dA2
"Give up, Doom. It's over." Superman said.408Please respect copyright.PENANAKhWHijTbfJ
"Never! Doom never gives up! Doom never surrenders! Doom will fight to the end!" Doom shouted.408Please respect copyright.PENANA9YmE5cftkm
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAWXVED23UOC
"Sorry, Doom. But I don't like loose ends." Hawkeye said.408Please respect copyright.PENANAF59wJU80wf
Doom gasped and fell to the ground, dead.408Please respect copyright.PENANARsKrvGrbRG
Spider-Man stared at Hawkeye in shock.408Please respect copyright.PENANAZvJJq2uBA3
"Hawkeye? You killed him?" He asked.408Please respect copyright.PENANA35tTqiYNEF
Hawkeye shrugged.408Please respect copyright.PENANAW1K1zszrBe
"What? He was going to blow us all up anyway. I just saved us some time." He said.408Please respect copyright.PENANAesq6cctWCW
Spider-Man shook his head in disbelief.408Please respect copyright.PENANAmWSsCsvWfG
"That's not how we do things here. We don't kill our enemies. We capture them and bring them to justice." He said.408Please respect copyright.PENANArYPMqaYx0X
Hawkeye rolled his eyes.408Please respect copyright.PENANATXA13h76nA
"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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAlmfH6VNYBr
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAx31qwUG6fQ
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAwYESw2DBEC
"Hey guys! Sorry we're late! We had some traffic issues." Iron Man said.408Please respect copyright.PENANAULg66NQkvh
Spider-Man smiled and waved at them.408Please respect copyright.PENANAvpfvAJGuLX
"Hey guys! Thanks for coming! We could use some help here." He said.408Please respect copyright.PENANAIbUvHrJXu9
Iron Man looked around and saw the dead body of Doom and the now destroyed device.408Please respect copyright.PENANA1JjabFL5Ga
"Wow. Looks like you guys handled things pretty well without us." He said.408Please respect copyright.PENANA1ilmNoR7Ch
Spider-Man pointed at Hawkeye.408Please respect copyright.PENANAYeCgFxyY45
"Well, actually he did most of the work." He said.408Please respect copyright.PENANAyk20cbyVFe
Iron Man looked at Hawkeye and raised an eyebrow.408Please respect copyright.PENANAFDAZYsedFX
"Hawkeye? You killed Doom?" He asked.408Please respect copyright.PENANAaoYRvAi2J2
Hawkeye nodded proudly.408Please respect copyright.PENANAdC9IdUn9O0
"Yup. I did." He said.408Please respect copyright.PENANAQW15Luj7nh
Iron Man shook his head in disapproval.408Please respect copyright.PENANA2zXict8YtU
"Hawkeye... You know we don't kill our enemies." He said.408Please respect copyright.PENANAw1gU4r2G7a
Hawkeye sighed and repeated what he had told Spider-Man earlier.408Please respect copyright.PENANAYJEdhv6TRF
"Oh please. Don't give me that moral lecture..." He said.408Please respect copyright.PENANAeEpmT5xUMc
Iron Man: Hawkeye, I'm serious. Killing is not our way.408Please respect copyright.PENANABrNBwplFrA
Hawkeye: Well maybe it should be.408Please respect copyright.PENANASAZg2NPQKj
Iron Man: Hawkeye, it shouldn't. Killing is wrong. It's against the law. It's against our code of honor.408Please respect copyright.PENANAVjhlFRwzp0
Hawkeye: Code of honor? What code of honor? We're not knights in shining armor. We're soldiers. And soldiers kill their enemies.408Please respect copyright.PENANA3uKt8CGJho
Iron Man: We're not soldiers, Hawkeye. We're heroes. And heroes don't kill.408Please respect copyright.PENANA2fM2kgVbZZ
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. 408Please respect copyright.PENANAjFMrrZklom
Tell that to the people who will die tomorrow because of villains we let live today.408Please respect copyright.PENANAXp7DwlDGzm
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAY0ehsN73s7
Hawkeye: No, it will make us better than them. It will make us stronger. It will make us feared. It will make us respected.408Please respect copyright.PENANAJWDoeiDJNc
Iron Man: Feared? Respected? Is that what you want, Hawkeye? To be feared and respected? To be a killer?408Please respect copyright.PENANAuriaU9HU9L
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAeCLkblvDZq
Iron Man: War? What war? There is no war, Hawkeye. There is only peace. And we're here to protect it.408Please respect copyright.PENANAWa7yNNjZbW
Hawkeye: Peace? There is no peace, Iron Man. There is only chaos. And we're here to end it.408Please respect copyright.PENANAESinumT2jZ
Iron Man: Hawkeye, you've lost your mind. You've gone too far. You've crossed a line you can't uncross.408Please respect copyright.PENANAQGiC3JAI42
Hawkeye: No, Iron Man. I've opened my eyes. I've gone far enough. I've crossed a line you can't cross.408Please respect copyright.PENANAQncALnTNmn
The two heroes glare at each other, their eyes filled with anger and distrust.408Please respect copyright.PENANA97uIYEQHo8
Spider-Man: Guys, guys! Calm down! This is not the time or the place for this! We have bigger problems to deal with!408Please respect copyright.PENANAa75dkjs5zy
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAUERVEKmiIx
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAo2FRBmJPk8
Spider-Man: Look! Up in the sky!408Please respect copyright.PENANAS6Qr2uCNiB
Batman: Oh, no it can't408Please respect copyright.PENANA0Ql18GM5O4
be, not again!
Galactus, the world-eater, had arrived on Earth, looking for his stolen power.408Please respect copyright.PENANADBnFTM6m4V
Galactus: Who dares to steal from Galactus? Who dares to defy Galactus? Who dares to face Galactus?408Please respect copyright.PENANAMhYN2HBg9B
The heroes looked at each other in wonder and awe.408Please respect copyright.PENANAaWnJYCNhxo
Spider-Man: Uh-oh.408Please respect copyright.PENANA0ntNo049En
Batman: Oh crap!408Please respect copyright.PENANAcrDKSB40Vp
Galactus raised his hand and prepared to unleash his cosmic wrath on the planet.408Please respect copyright.PENANAlfM6m5K4E4
Galactus: Prepare to die, Earthlings!408Please respect copyright.PENANAEjIAQDZO3I
The superheroes braced themselves for a battle to the end.408Please respect copyright.PENANAcnaECRsgrY
Suddenly, a bright light flashed in front of them.408Please respect copyright.PENANARX9p4iDDmR
Galactus: What is this?408Please respect copyright.PENANASVZ9q8qyOX
A portal opened in the air, and a figure stepped out of it.408Please respect copyright.PENANAyyi7I10vtK
Figure: Greetings, Earthlings!408Please respect copyright.PENANAztGkUqO5d4
The heroes recognized him as Doctor Strange, the Sorcerer Supreme.408Please respect copyright.PENANAyHzgxJk8ta
Doctor Strange: I'm here to help!408Please respect copyright.PENANAFa0A7trmF9
Galactus recognized him as well.408Please respect copyright.PENANAepGAhdASFK
Galactus: You! You are the one who stole my power!408Please respect copyright.PENANAX51BOHByV5
Doctor Strange: Yes!408Please respect copyright.PENANAHk7URZJ6rT
Galactus: I am Galactus, why did you do it? What did you want with it?408Please respect copyright.PENANAQX67Uv0rpB
Doctor Strange: I did it to save the world, Galactus. I did it to stop you.408Please respect copyright.PENANADFnqBVSLnn
Galactus: Stop me? How dare you try to stop me? You are nothing but a speck of dust in my eyes!408Please respect copyright.PENANALnLGQAbnyw
Doctor Strange: Maybe so, Galactus. But even a speck of dust can cause irritation.408Please respect copyright.PENANAzK95mANvV7
Doctor Strange raised his hands and chanted a spell.408Please respect copyright.PENANACqUAwNLMlL
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!408Please respect copyright.PENANAdsgZHwEPUB
A blast of mystical energy hit Galactus in the face, making him stagger back.408Please respect copyright.PENANAuesDROuJzL
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?408Please respect copyright.PENANAQcoHvPy6Zy
You think you can banish me with your pathetic words? You are sadly mistaken, Doctor Strange. 408Please respect copyright.PENANADw0VU19PjT
You are doomed, Doctor Strange. You are dead! 408Please respect copyright.PENANA1rOhwrAVJI
Galactus raised his hand and prepared to unleash his cosmic wrath on Doctor Strange.408Please respect copyright.PENANABNXThghqdl
Galactus: Prepare to die, Sorcerer!408Please respect copyright.PENANALocMgLZe66
Doctor Strange braced himself for the blow.408Please respect copyright.PENANApERlD4xmj8
Suddenly, a loud roar echoed in the air.408Please respect copyright.PENANA5f8VWHxCwM
Galactus: What is that?408Please respect copyright.PENANAeAbLihPuhm
