Ripped from the pages of NEW AVENGERS, the Eisner award-winning team of Brian Bendis and Alex Maleev present this all-new special. An explosive hidden story of Marvel’s secret past, the secret history of Marvel’s most secret team -- how they came together and how they are ripped apart.
The events in this book act as a prologue to not one but two entirely different Marvel blockbuster summer events- CIVIL WAR and PLANET HULK.
Here are the first interior pages from this issue, showing the beginning strains that will cause the Marvel U to break! Get the FULL story on what really happened in NEW AVENGERS: ILLUMINATI and why this is the beginning of the end for so many this summer.

The Marvel Universe is about to split down the middle and the line is drawn here!!! CIVIL WAR is coming! You will need to make a choice: whose side are you on? Well... whose side are you on???
