When the Avengers assemble to defeat a horrible monster that appears in the skies over Brooklyn, they quickly learn that the creature was seemingly drawn there by a young woman with the ability to open portals to other realms. The mysterious woman escapes, but Tony Stark and the team track her down, only to find she is one of a team of unknown, super-powered individuals . . . who are decidedly not interested in answering the Avengers' questions. As the battle rages, it becomes clear these young villains are not the ones controlling their powers; but if they are not the villains, then who is? Earth's Mightiest Heroes soon discover that the puppet masters are the newly reorganized Serpent Society, headed by Black Mamba. The Society are using this new team to bring down all who stand in the way of their most nefarious plot to date, and if the Avengers can't protect their own and defeat this new threat, the Serpent Society will reign victorious. Avengers: The Serpent Society, written by veteran comic book and fantasy writer Pat Shand, will take the iconic team of Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, the Hulk, Black Widow, and Hawkeye on a heart-pounding adventure to protect not just the Earth but the very fabric of reality.

Tony Stark isn't a man who enjoys relaxing, but a weekend getaway with Pepper Potts is too appealing to say no to. The downtime is short lived, though, as Maria Hill, the director of S.H.I.E.L.D, crashes the party, bringing with her information about a twenty-foot tall alien robot unlike anything scientists have ever seen. Having learned of the alien technology, Count Luchino Nefaria sees the potential to turn the robot into a weapon that serves Nefaria's own purposes. He recruits the Ghost to steal the robot, but when the alien technology is brought out of its dormant mode, it turns out to be too much for even one of Earth's most skilled hackers. Iron Man is overwhelmed, the Ghost is under the robot's control, and Nefaria is in over his head. With little time and even less help, Iron Man calls on War Machine and Rescue to prepare one last stand against an alien technology focused on one simple mission: the complete destruction of mankind. Penned by veteran comic book and fantasy writer Pat Shand, Iron Man: Mutually Assured Destruction sends Iron Man on one of his most dangerous and important missions to date, and is sure to thrill Marvel fans to the very end.
