The last year of Marvel Comics storytelling, particularly the events of One World Under Doom and Chip Zdarsky’s Captain America, have been leading to a watershed moment in Avengers history.
Comic Watch Reviews:
- Wolverine: Weapons of Armageddon #1: Old Knives Cut the Deepest
- Captain America #7: A Captain’s Crusade
That turning point arrives this June in AVENGERS: ARMAGEDDON, a five-issue event series from Zdarsky, the superstar writer known for his defining and Eisner-nominated work on Daredevil, and rising stars Frank Alpizar & Delio Diaz, the artist duo behind Doomed 2099 and recent issues of Captain America.

Following key buildup in Captain America and Wolverine: Weapons of Armageddon, AVENGERS: ARMAGEDDON leads to a transformative shakeup of the team—the likes of which haven’t been felt since Avengers: Disassembled.
The saga begins in Latveria where Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross, A.K.A. Red Hulk, claims Doom’s homeland for himself, igniting a global conflict. When the Avengers assemble against him, explosive escalations will force them to unleash a power that changes how the world views their mightiest heroes forever. This pivotal chapter will lead directly into a new era of AVENGERS starting later this year.
