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.296Please respect copyright.PENANA52TPrlhjXH
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.296Please respect copyright.PENANAdeZHZ9r6Ae
"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.296Please respect copyright.PENANAjexXJtUn65
"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.296Please respect copyright.PENANA53HVBCNjCu
Doom replied, turning his attention to Spider-Man.296Please respect copyright.PENANAifSqxXv5e8
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." 296Please respect copyright.PENANAvYAui5kWos
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.296Please respect copyright.PENANAB9lEKpwSMV
Spider-Man: (said, trying to stall him)296Please respect copyright.PENANAvX3uhG1zok
"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!"296Please respect copyright.PENANAkKZL0ZFjez
Doom: (firing another beam at Spider-Man.)296Please respect copyright.PENANAJSPD7jMrGt
Oh really? And who are these friends of yours? The Avengers? The Justice League? The X-Men? The Teen Titans?
The Powerpuff Girls? 296Please respect copyright.PENANAQ2MUeQIs61
Ha! They're no match for me and my cosmic power! Bring them on! I'll destroy them all!" 296Please respect copyright.PENANAoaZzzk4x8O
[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.]296Please respect copyright.PENANANDxPNUyqMo
Spiderman: "Spider-Man to Avengers Tower. Come in, Avengers Tower. Do you copy?" 296Please respect copyright.PENANANCMM72h7qA
He said into the device.
"This is Iron Man. What's up, Spidey?" A voice answered.296Please respect copyright.PENANA8hVsZTDhkV
"Iron Man! Thank goodness! Listen, we have a situation here. 296Please respect copyright.PENANAVCpS0yD8ah
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.296Please respect copyright.PENANA9AxbIaCaNc
"Thanks, Iron Man. Hurry!" Spider-Man said.296Please respect copyright.PENANACOxPzbMjEm
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.296Please respect copyright.PENANAwjFIzCxQ84
"Hey, Doom! How about you pick on someone your own size?" He taunted firing a mass of spider web at him!296Please respect copyright.PENANAz1gzvqTA8t
Doom ripped off the webbing and glared at Spider-Man.296Please respect copyright.PENANAsIsrYHXh8u
"You insolent insect! You dare to interfere with my plans? You'll pay for that!" He roared.296Please respect copyright.PENANAeVQId19KFd
He charged at Spider-Man with his metal fists clenched.296Please respect copyright.PENANANmR9uQ6yMS
Spider-Man dodged his punches and kicked him in the face.296Please respect copyright.PENANAm20fjUgu8d
Doom: Ow! That hurt!296Please respect copyright.PENANAuPl8cpJT4R
Spiderman: You know what else hurts? This!" He said, shooting webbing into Doom's eyes.296Please respect copyright.PENANAYwitMzGdVX
Doom screamed and tried to wipe off the webbing.296Please respect copyright.PENANAA26ItY9d1z
"Get this off me! You'll regret this, Spider-Man!" He shouted.296Please respect copyright.PENANA9cvgCdRykb
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.296Please respect copyright.PENANAnoWqcHagLQ
"Is that a bird? Is that a plane? No, it's, it's Superman!" He hollared.296Please respect copyright.PENANAcE4srz3Dy5
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.296Please respect copyright.PENANA0eUpzUB2Ay
"Spider-Man, are you okay?" Superman asked.296Please respect copyright.PENANA8lESTixTHR
Spiderman: (agitated)296Please respect copyright.PENANACoZwv6F2jm
"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.296Please respect copyright.PENANAYYu9OZ2kn3
"Great! The more the merrier!" Spider-Man said.296Please respect copyright.PENANAVnqGFVtteB
He turned to Doom, who had recovered from the webbing and was staring at the newcomers with rage.296Please respect copyright.PENANAj3Q5KNM8Xo
"Doom, meet the Justice League. Justice League, meet Doom. He's a jerk." Spider-Man introduced.296Please respect copyright.PENANArlYLme26so
"Doom does not care for your introductions. Doom only cares for your destruction!" Doom yelled.296Please respect copyright.PENANAmRQZ9HKb1M
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.296Please respect copyright.PENANAxqtZq4a8D3
"My mask! You ruined my mask! You'll pay for that!" He screamed.296Please respect copyright.PENANAAqfylJmYNy
He threw his device at Superman, hoping to hit him with it. But quickly, Superman caught it and crushed it in his hands.296Please respect copyright.PENANApm1G9btW8D
"Sorry, Doom. Your toy is broken." Superman said.296Please respect copyright.PENANANlwg7rVXg5
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.296Please respect copyright.PENANAsbkPJpwXwu
"Give up, Doom. It's over." Superman said.296Please respect copyright.PENANAHxtou5LazV
"Never! Doom never gives up! Doom never surrenders! Doom will fight to the end!" Doom shouted.296Please respect copyright.PENANAMoAbPB1TPN
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.296Please respect copyright.PENANAv5F9YJjviw
"Sorry, Doom. But I don't like loose ends." Hawkeye said.296Please respect copyright.PENANA9AaS668Yh5
Doom gasped and fell to the ground, dead.296Please respect copyright.PENANAR5Fia5YJUC
Spider-Man stared at Hawkeye in shock.296Please respect copyright.PENANAlU5gZq7EKF
"Hawkeye? You killed him?" He asked.296Please respect copyright.PENANAhl6CQrIbwS
Hawkeye shrugged.296Please respect copyright.PENANAcwmMTcV61Z
"What? He was going to blow us all up anyway. I just saved us some time." He said.296Please respect copyright.PENANAh6HfTF1Ymv
Spider-Man shook his head in disbelief.296Please respect copyright.PENANACY00aNTEtu
"That's not how we do things here. We don't kill our enemies. We capture them and bring them to justice." He said.296Please respect copyright.PENANAg3ddKLsqcY
Hawkeye rolled his eyes.296Please respect copyright.PENANA78JJSR07xf
"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.296Please respect copyright.PENANAf0JbVGUpMK
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.296Please respect copyright.PENANApNUk21EWX7
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.296Please respect copyright.PENANAiyYWcEuPFn
"Hey guys! Sorry we're late! We had some traffic issues." Iron Man said.296Please respect copyright.PENANAyMuImNEWci
Spider-Man smiled and waved at them.296Please respect copyright.PENANA7ExI3b6m84
"Hey guys! Thanks for coming! We could use some help here." He said.296Please respect copyright.PENANAzDi75Nd2X7
Iron Man looked around and saw the dead body of Doom and the now destroyed device.296Please respect copyright.PENANAPxybi37hbj
"Wow. Looks like you guys handled things pretty well without us." He said.296Please respect copyright.PENANAZVV5xUHSlQ
Spider-Man pointed at Hawkeye.296Please respect copyright.PENANAH6wWbl5kwo
"Well, actually he did most of the work." He said.296Please respect copyright.PENANA1NHsIoKGP5
Iron Man looked at Hawkeye and raised an eyebrow.296Please respect copyright.PENANANpz4DxDYgP
"Hawkeye? You killed Doom?" He asked.296Please respect copyright.PENANAS4D0JTIMma
Hawkeye nodded proudly.296Please respect copyright.PENANAnnDHSjttJF
"Yup. I did." He said.296Please respect copyright.PENANA3IjaXyGOGd
Iron Man shook his head in disapproval.296Please respect copyright.PENANAvB390I68Nk
"Hawkeye... You know we don't kill our enemies." He said.296Please respect copyright.PENANApqGOxpZVAd
Hawkeye sighed and repeated what he had told Spider-Man earlier.296Please respect copyright.PENANAEyQJOfTEkk
"Oh please. Don't give me that moral lecture..." He said.296Please respect copyright.PENANAkzPbvnkjxv
Iron Man: Hawkeye, I'm serious. Killing is not our way.296Please respect copyright.PENANAmkQPG0ow7y
Hawkeye: Well maybe it should be.296Please respect copyright.PENANAHtL4l90ykh
Iron Man: Hawkeye, it shouldn't. Killing is wrong. It's against the law. It's against our code of honor.296Please respect copyright.PENANAOOHDiG8KEU
Hawkeye: Code of honor? What code of honor? We're not knights in shining armor. We're soldiers. And soldiers kill their enemies.296Please respect copyright.PENANAJluJK9gLz0
Iron Man: We're not soldiers, Hawkeye. We're heroes. And heroes don't kill.296Please respect copyright.PENANAAt7cIDf6RO
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. 296Please respect copyright.PENANATdbN8JVSfO
Tell that to the people who will die tomorrow because of villains we let live today.296Please respect copyright.PENANA0jUXs2fDMl
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.296Please respect copyright.PENANA39FVmebl3X
Hawkeye: No, it will make us better than them. It will make us stronger. It will make us feared. It will make us respected.296Please respect copyright.PENANAXU2hUwmHYE
Iron Man: Feared? Respected? Is that what you want, Hawkeye? To be feared and respected? To be a killer?296Please respect copyright.PENANA1xYr5u3C6n
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.296Please respect copyright.PENANASYbMEd5tz1
Iron Man: War? What war? There is no war, Hawkeye. There is only peace. And we're here to protect it.296Please respect copyright.PENANAQiWiz52Yce
Hawkeye: Peace? There is no peace, Iron Man. There is only chaos. And we're here to end it.296Please respect copyright.PENANA9q85S0wSZa
Iron Man: Hawkeye, you've lost your mind. You've gone too far. You've crossed a line you can't uncross.296Please respect copyright.PENANA8AgoLH5B2u
Hawkeye: No, Iron Man. I've opened my eyes. I've gone far enough. I've crossed a line you can't cross.296Please respect copyright.PENANAGBNKyuU5Lx
The two heroes glare at each other, their eyes filled with anger and distrust.296Please respect copyright.PENANAxL6vmYLj07
Spider-Man: Guys, guys! Calm down! This is not the time or the place for this! We have bigger problems to deal with!296Please respect copyright.PENANA37LOcXnHbo
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.296Please respect copyright.PENANA23TJegr7iO
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.296Please respect copyright.PENANAtG7BaTw0dh
Spider-Man: Look! Up in the sky!296Please respect copyright.PENANAokiN9awMcT
Batman: Oh, no it can't296Please respect copyright.PENANA7Q3upBpVAp
be, not again!
Galactus, the world-eater, had arrived on Earth, looking for his stolen power.296Please respect copyright.PENANAwwYWSNWlfT
Galactus: Who dares to steal from Galactus? Who dares to defy Galactus? Who dares to face Galactus?296Please respect copyright.PENANAKtO5OdUghm
The heroes looked at each other in wonder and awe.296Please respect copyright.PENANAlWoIBYLr7d
Spider-Man: Uh-oh.296Please respect copyright.PENANAeVmtB4bgjX
Batman: Oh crap!296Please respect copyright.PENANAoXIcV9XB6v
Galactus raised his hand and prepared to unleash his cosmic wrath on the planet.296Please respect copyright.PENANA8btgRtduFp
Galactus: Prepare to die, Earthlings!296Please respect copyright.PENANApECvcFL1D5
The superheroes braced themselves for a battle to the end.296Please respect copyright.PENANALhjV0BMuDX
Suddenly, a bright light flashed in front of them.296Please respect copyright.PENANAJawbQJN2fu
Galactus: What is this?296Please respect copyright.PENANAFgsnbYlynH
A portal opened in the air, and a figure stepped out of it.296Please respect copyright.PENANAtMTRM4WP2D
Figure: Greetings, Earthlings!296Please respect copyright.PENANAk0MKrGB3pa
The heroes recognized him as Doctor Strange, the Sorcerer Supreme.296Please respect copyright.PENANAXlUk5ANF0h
Doctor Strange: I'm here to help!296Please respect copyright.PENANAR6npROV0td
Galactus recognized him as well.296Please respect copyright.PENANA7SoGvgfbrV
Galactus: You! You are the one who stole my power!296Please respect copyright.PENANAoWtg8EYvD2
Doctor Strange: Yes!296Please respect copyright.PENANAC0RibHkMXT
Galactus: I am Galactus, why did you do it? What did you want with it?296Please respect copyright.PENANAw9OvZyN6ok
Doctor Strange: I did it to save the world, Galactus. I did it to stop you.296Please respect copyright.PENANAk7QIuFBzbU
Galactus: Stop me? How dare you try to stop me? You are nothing but a speck of dust in my eyes!296Please respect copyright.PENANAW17EwtTW15
Doctor Strange: Maybe so, Galactus. But even a speck of dust can cause irritation.296Please respect copyright.PENANAXyiy0yHw8Z
Doctor Strange raised his hands and chanted a spell.296Please respect copyright.PENANA9T70h7A4yH
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!296Please respect copyright.PENANADemHcaBud7
A blast of mystical energy hit Galactus in the face, making him stagger back.296Please respect copyright.PENANABk1rDmmHi3
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?296Please respect copyright.PENANAlPAHAOAFsw
You think you can banish me with your pathetic words? You are sadly mistaken, Doctor Strange. 296Please respect copyright.PENANAvlkI0owH9Q
You are doomed, Doctor Strange. You are dead! 296Please respect copyright.PENANAtHO01otdPI
Galactus raised his hand and prepared to unleash his cosmic wrath on Doctor Strange.296Please respect copyright.PENANA8ne68FPF9R
Galactus: Prepare to die, Sorcerer!296Please respect copyright.PENANAMAU0gE0GZn
Doctor Strange braced himself for the blow.296Please respect copyright.PENANAa7l90X8jx1
Suddenly, a loud roar echoed in the air.296Please respect copyright.PENANAnTRKFk3U1v
Galactus: What is that?296Please respect copyright.PENANAuwjCyyWWBg
