Premise
After the events of "One World Under Doom", General Thaddeus Ross claims the leadership of Latveria for himself, forcing the Avengers to prevent a massive global conflict.[4]
Plot
Background
David Colton was a soldier who suffered with asthma since childhood, but was always felt inspired to the actions of Steve Rogers/ Captain America in World War II. Years later, when he joined a rescue mission in Latveria during a coup, Colton (under the mantle of Captain America) discovers that his team of mercenaries sent by General Thaddeus "Thunderbolt" Ross was hired to kill the hostages in order to cover up Ross' businesses with Victor von Doom / Doctor Doom. Feeling disgusted by their actions, Colton decided to kill the mercenaries in revenge, causing Rogers to fight against him, leading to Colton's defeat before they both were taken by the rescue team. While Colton was being hospitalized, Rogers decides to no longer serve General Ross and accepts the offer of joining the Avengers.[a]
In the present, Doom dies and leaves Reed Richards / Mister Fantastic his will and testament hidden in his mask, which leaves Latveria and all of his other possessions in the hands of whoever can take care of it.[b][7] In response, many factions are competing for the country's control, including General Ross / Red Hulk and the federal government.[c]
After traveling to Earth-6160 in order to save his baby sister, Miles Morales / Miles Morales returns to Earth-616, with his memories from Earth-1610 restored, and hiding the Origin Boxes he gained from Doom (the Reed Richards from Earth-6160).[d]
In present day, Nick Fury Jr. and a reestablished S.H.I.E.L.D. sends Rogers and a new team of agents to Latveria, in order to retrieve a mysterious weapon hidden by Doom. In the middle, there is civil war between True Latveria, a resistance led by Marius Wolf / Salvation, and the Latverian Liberators, led by the mysterious Alina von Doom.
Meanwhile, James "Logan" Howlett / Wolverine is being chased by government agents, and Teri O’Barnes reveals to him that the Weapon-X program is still active and is testing Tyler Torrens as a new mutant subject. Logan and O’Barnes meet David Colton, who reveals Torrens escaped from his captors. The trio is then ambushed by Frank Simpson / Nuke, an old nemesis of Logan.[e]
