Synopsis
The newly revived clone of the Red Skull stands among a crowd in New York and uses Professor Xavier’s mind powers to force them to listen to and believe his harangue. His S-Men arrive and produce the hypnotized Scarlet Witch and Rogue, who are forced to tell the crowd that the mutants intend to exterminate humanity. The Red Skull then unlocks the power in the humans to identify mutant on sight and stirs them up to madness and murder. As the enraged crowd begins hunting down and killing mutants, three Avengers arrive: Captain America has put Havok in charge and Cap and Wolverine follow his lead and rush into the melee rescuing whomever they can. Thor arrives crashing down from the sky and takes out the Tortoise Man, strongest of the bad guys but the Thunder God encounters the hypnotic Honest John…. Meanwhile, Cap is overwhelmed by doubts about Havok and hatred of mutants and he confronts Havok denouncing his foolish strategy until Havok shows him he is under the villains’ control. Wolverine is injected with Cassandra Toxin by Tsar Sultan, inducing feelings of severe guilt and paranoia. Scarlet Witch and Rogue, freed from the Red Skull's control, take out Tsar Sultan and bring Logan up to date on the situation. Meanwhile, Honest John appears to Thor as Odin, convincing the God of Thunder to join forces with the Red Skull. As Wolverine attacks the Red Skull amd slices off his hand, Goat-Faced Girl shuts off Logan’s healing factor—just as Thor crashes down on him. The God of Thunder pledges his allegiance to the Reich and the Red Skull smiles….
