Why they made this part of Ultimate Invasion into a separate one-shot? I have no idea

But this one was definetly a better story than Invasion. It shows us how Iron Lad and Doctor Doom get their revolutionary crew together. And now Maker’s cabal reacted on his sudden disappearance. Spoiler they gone with the act of domestic terrorism

Most of this issue is about freeing Thor from his cell, well less about phisical cell and more about motivating him to escape and fight for his rightfull right for Asgard’s throne. Thor could escape at any moment and just needed a good push. Also Lady Sif is with this team now, not much else to say about her really. She’s behaving like a tsundere i suppose ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Also Lad and Doom dug out Capitan America

And for a finale, as i previously said, the shadow government had shot New-York from Stark Sr.’s satellite pointing at Stark Jr. Getting three things done at once: discredited Tony and Doom, destroying their base of operation and killing a bunch of civilians as a treat. The last scene with TV broadcast teases Black Panther, minimaly shows protagonist of the X-Men book and shows the inciding incident for Spider-Man, bacause in this attack Harry Osborn’s parents die, and also Aunt May had also died in there :|

Also as a bonus they given us a couple of pages from Ultimate X-Men, and judging by them it seems we’ll get a light body-horror, inspired by works of Junji Ito. Which is honestly the best way to make X-Men in my opinion
