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.299Please respect copyright.PENANAES2r2iuTQh
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.299Please respect copyright.PENANAQl5r4qhc7i
"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.299Please respect copyright.PENANATvV2V8R0oh
"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.299Please respect copyright.PENANADBJXV9xUCT
Doom replied, turning his attention to Spider-Man.299Please respect copyright.PENANAdDsofSzsMu
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." 299Please respect copyright.PENANAToo8b12pgr
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.299Please respect copyright.PENANA2pw8JM2QJd
Spider-Man: (said, trying to stall him)299Please respect copyright.PENANAQdD39Ehk8s
"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!"299Please respect copyright.PENANAtw0YR4GEkM
Doom: (firing another beam at Spider-Man.)299Please respect copyright.PENANAHLftpZZTEp
Oh really? And who are these friends of yours? The Avengers? The Justice League? The X-Men? The Teen Titans?
The Powerpuff Girls? 299Please respect copyright.PENANAYsuWGFvuOO
Ha! They're no match for me and my cosmic power! Bring them on! I'll destroy them all!" 299Please respect copyright.PENANAljGerkxjof
[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.]299Please respect copyright.PENANAoRNauab9fs
Spiderman: "Spider-Man to Avengers Tower. Come in, Avengers Tower. Do you copy?" 299Please respect copyright.PENANAd3CXptl1uU
He said into the device.
"This is Iron Man. What's up, Spidey?" A voice answered.299Please respect copyright.PENANAQf1uSYlB05
"Iron Man! Thank goodness! Listen, we have a situation here. 299Please respect copyright.PENANAkdrdvxb6E3
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.299Please respect copyright.PENANAqMSAjwiAUm
"Thanks, Iron Man. Hurry!" Spider-Man said.299Please respect copyright.PENANAoDpU8hKDJK
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.299Please respect copyright.PENANAbJkZmSP0MS
"Hey, Doom! How about you pick on someone your own size?" He taunted firing a mass of spider web at him!299Please respect copyright.PENANAwW4myNuVJq
Doom ripped off the webbing and glared at Spider-Man.299Please respect copyright.PENANAA8bATkA0Dk
"You insolent insect! You dare to interfere with my plans? You'll pay for that!" He roared.299Please respect copyright.PENANA3kAaNzIwOu
He charged at Spider-Man with his metal fists clenched.299Please respect copyright.PENANAfJg4qAFVm8
Spider-Man dodged his punches and kicked him in the face.299Please respect copyright.PENANAv97cnViuFu
Doom: Ow! That hurt!299Please respect copyright.PENANAJzGJlfwwZE
Spiderman: You know what else hurts? This!" He said, shooting webbing into Doom's eyes.299Please respect copyright.PENANAs3OXf1fTI2
Doom screamed and tried to wipe off the webbing.299Please respect copyright.PENANAjARX09nxnx
"Get this off me! You'll regret this, Spider-Man!" He shouted.299Please respect copyright.PENANAFnQSMq7Pvx
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.299Please respect copyright.PENANAEgflBuPFW1
"Is that a bird? Is that a plane? No, it's, it's Superman!" He hollared.299Please respect copyright.PENANAksYG7O4pDX
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.299Please respect copyright.PENANA0Ot75vy8Ww
"Spider-Man, are you okay?" Superman asked.299Please respect copyright.PENANA6hrpNi7YIp
Spiderman: (agitated)299Please respect copyright.PENANACzHizbxOVJ
"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.299Please respect copyright.PENANAJenbVX9EB2
"Great! The more the merrier!" Spider-Man said.299Please respect copyright.PENANAqjbkXKQjO9
He turned to Doom, who had recovered from the webbing and was staring at the newcomers with rage.299Please respect copyright.PENANAPkv38f1QME
"Doom, meet the Justice League. Justice League, meet Doom. He's a jerk." Spider-Man introduced.299Please respect copyright.PENANAX8euUdwMKy
"Doom does not care for your introductions. Doom only cares for your destruction!" Doom yelled.299Please respect copyright.PENANAIbqgxcmfH4
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.299Please respect copyright.PENANAsRPPXCL27X
"My mask! You ruined my mask! You'll pay for that!" He screamed.299Please respect copyright.PENANAZe2yJFVyLM
He threw his device at Superman, hoping to hit him with it. But quickly, Superman caught it and crushed it in his hands.299Please respect copyright.PENANASVH3H6zqWy
"Sorry, Doom. Your toy is broken." Superman said.299Please respect copyright.PENANAUM51zwQLz5
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.299Please respect copyright.PENANARSXDLv1d7g
"Give up, Doom. It's over." Superman said.299Please respect copyright.PENANAgYecAtoXqF
"Never! Doom never gives up! Doom never surrenders! Doom will fight to the end!" Doom shouted.299Please respect copyright.PENANAyXAcSNlKxt
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.299Please respect copyright.PENANAuU5hV5wfiH
"Sorry, Doom. But I don't like loose ends." Hawkeye said.299Please respect copyright.PENANAi9T5sJGjKH
Doom gasped and fell to the ground, dead.299Please respect copyright.PENANAyBtiNrXF3B
Spider-Man stared at Hawkeye in shock.299Please respect copyright.PENANAfJYUKrFGWP
"Hawkeye? You killed him?" He asked.299Please respect copyright.PENANACQ2EOrJQPv
Hawkeye shrugged.299Please respect copyright.PENANAUCjRU8OCCe
"What? He was going to blow us all up anyway. I just saved us some time." He said.299Please respect copyright.PENANAZnTtJN1NAY
Spider-Man shook his head in disbelief.299Please respect copyright.PENANAcx33TUiiUQ
"That's not how we do things here. We don't kill our enemies. We capture them and bring them to justice." He said.299Please respect copyright.PENANAn4aPjgjmoO
Hawkeye rolled his eyes.299Please respect copyright.PENANAP0uz6Tpw1M
"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.299Please respect copyright.PENANADRSQLaWCQK
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.299Please respect copyright.PENANA2sDp9GUYkr
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.299Please respect copyright.PENANANyaiH9xzvr
"Hey guys! Sorry we're late! We had some traffic issues." Iron Man said.299Please respect copyright.PENANAfdSHqDsxYz
Spider-Man smiled and waved at them.299Please respect copyright.PENANAKLwf8GWSJ4
"Hey guys! Thanks for coming! We could use some help here." He said.299Please respect copyright.PENANAi0WFo9JjHo
Iron Man looked around and saw the dead body of Doom and the now destroyed device.299Please respect copyright.PENANAncSS9ambGX
"Wow. Looks like you guys handled things pretty well without us." He said.299Please respect copyright.PENANAddymtl7jPn
Spider-Man pointed at Hawkeye.299Please respect copyright.PENANAQL3zTdfoRu
"Well, actually he did most of the work." He said.299Please respect copyright.PENANAQHvTsP7DOU
Iron Man looked at Hawkeye and raised an eyebrow.299Please respect copyright.PENANAVJCbPGOuvq
"Hawkeye? You killed Doom?" He asked.299Please respect copyright.PENANAzGMRCpHPn4
Hawkeye nodded proudly.299Please respect copyright.PENANAWfBxN2JjVl
"Yup. I did." He said.299Please respect copyright.PENANAP2mf6tNtbB
Iron Man shook his head in disapproval.299Please respect copyright.PENANAhHEUvfOMOY
"Hawkeye... You know we don't kill our enemies." He said.299Please respect copyright.PENANAFlPosR1Vl2
Hawkeye sighed and repeated what he had told Spider-Man earlier.299Please respect copyright.PENANAYIhGPogkxT
"Oh please. Don't give me that moral lecture..." He said.299Please respect copyright.PENANAtmCitebJe9
Iron Man: Hawkeye, I'm serious. Killing is not our way.299Please respect copyright.PENANA3qkBEWsEOB
Hawkeye: Well maybe it should be.299Please respect copyright.PENANAPbjnP0oJXc
Iron Man: Hawkeye, it shouldn't. Killing is wrong. It's against the law. It's against our code of honor.299Please respect copyright.PENANAjzT5Dt1FF5
Hawkeye: Code of honor? What code of honor? We're not knights in shining armor. We're soldiers. And soldiers kill their enemies.299Please respect copyright.PENANAQQtAj4Lvvn
Iron Man: We're not soldiers, Hawkeye. We're heroes. And heroes don't kill.299Please respect copyright.PENANAHecp8jvOY0
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. 299Please respect copyright.PENANA8KjsrYeiIU
Tell that to the people who will die tomorrow because of villains we let live today.299Please respect copyright.PENANAz7Lj8Pw8vr
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.299Please respect copyright.PENANAG8H9OqtF75
Hawkeye: No, it will make us better than them. It will make us stronger. It will make us feared. It will make us respected.299Please respect copyright.PENANAciRhLjt8y2
Iron Man: Feared? Respected? Is that what you want, Hawkeye? To be feared and respected? To be a killer?299Please respect copyright.PENANAcPk3W4K5n5
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.299Please respect copyright.PENANAfnQRxibinK
Iron Man: War? What war? There is no war, Hawkeye. There is only peace. And we're here to protect it.299Please respect copyright.PENANAChtDREasmt
Hawkeye: Peace? There is no peace, Iron Man. There is only chaos. And we're here to end it.299Please respect copyright.PENANAMXAK13XJak
Iron Man: Hawkeye, you've lost your mind. You've gone too far. You've crossed a line you can't uncross.299Please respect copyright.PENANAkcPOTzfdX2
Hawkeye: No, Iron Man. I've opened my eyes. I've gone far enough. I've crossed a line you can't cross.299Please respect copyright.PENANA4vPDB2xpzL
The two heroes glare at each other, their eyes filled with anger and distrust.299Please respect copyright.PENANAvDKSfNVpXH
Spider-Man: Guys, guys! Calm down! This is not the time or the place for this! We have bigger problems to deal with!299Please respect copyright.PENANAtnizF9yQ05
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.299Please respect copyright.PENANASA7nyespmt
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.299Please respect copyright.PENANA2hI0UjNvGu
Spider-Man: Look! Up in the sky!299Please respect copyright.PENANADsBKnLmcG3
Batman: Oh, no it can't299Please respect copyright.PENANAt2FrFbId89
be, not again!
Galactus, the world-eater, had arrived on Earth, looking for his stolen power.299Please respect copyright.PENANA765cXq4d8C
Galactus: Who dares to steal from Galactus? Who dares to defy Galactus? Who dares to face Galactus?299Please respect copyright.PENANAnIm3suBSvC
The heroes looked at each other in wonder and awe.299Please respect copyright.PENANADOdUtHSmxx
Spider-Man: Uh-oh.299Please respect copyright.PENANACenrK9cZz1
Batman: Oh crap!299Please respect copyright.PENANAis9psD8Hb2
Galactus raised his hand and prepared to unleash his cosmic wrath on the planet.299Please respect copyright.PENANAwBYcIRveoZ
Galactus: Prepare to die, Earthlings!299Please respect copyright.PENANADuWJ8rkBl8
The superheroes braced themselves for a battle to the end.299Please respect copyright.PENANAwbfKNelSUs
Suddenly, a bright light flashed in front of them.299Please respect copyright.PENANAVh2oJ3BTuT
Galactus: What is this?299Please respect copyright.PENANAnQOSD3FE7A
A portal opened in the air, and a figure stepped out of it.299Please respect copyright.PENANA9I1x9uLDHU
Figure: Greetings, Earthlings!299Please respect copyright.PENANAMFNVXOVkG7
The heroes recognized him as Doctor Strange, the Sorcerer Supreme.299Please respect copyright.PENANAbRImr2Qvwm
Doctor Strange: I'm here to help!299Please respect copyright.PENANAKhud1BwLQy
Galactus recognized him as well.299Please respect copyright.PENANA9V6mtOnXAc
Galactus: You! You are the one who stole my power!299Please respect copyright.PENANACWriw775yG
Doctor Strange: Yes!299Please respect copyright.PENANAetpKRCRbTW
Galactus: I am Galactus, why did you do it? What did you want with it?299Please respect copyright.PENANA7CdjrCAC6p
Doctor Strange: I did it to save the world, Galactus. I did it to stop you.299Please respect copyright.PENANAUqbTTZosLc
Galactus: Stop me? How dare you try to stop me? You are nothing but a speck of dust in my eyes!299Please respect copyright.PENANA3UyEOR6mcL
Doctor Strange: Maybe so, Galactus. But even a speck of dust can cause irritation.299Please respect copyright.PENANAA6JGRrVzXp
Doctor Strange raised his hands and chanted a spell.299Please respect copyright.PENANAYnm78QufWg
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!299Please respect copyright.PENANAhwDxEgI1G5
A blast of mystical energy hit Galactus in the face, making him stagger back.299Please respect copyright.PENANAZRr0oFpH6H
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?299Please respect copyright.PENANA5KVbdl7TXT
You think you can banish me with your pathetic words? You are sadly mistaken, Doctor Strange. 299Please respect copyright.PENANALQfBX7hFme
You are doomed, Doctor Strange. You are dead! 299Please respect copyright.PENANAoOn8xO2ZyY
Galactus raised his hand and prepared to unleash his cosmic wrath on Doctor Strange.299Please respect copyright.PENANAlqC36hM3V0
Galactus: Prepare to die, Sorcerer!299Please respect copyright.PENANA7LQaSSbBUv
Doctor Strange braced himself for the blow.299Please respect copyright.PENANA3IoXhyBilT
Suddenly, a loud roar echoed in the air.299Please respect copyright.PENANAfiWH2Y3WRZ
Galactus: What is that?299Please respect copyright.PENANAFxlkNGFo99
