Synopsis for "The Garden"
On Mars, in the garden, Ex Nihilo, Abyss, And Aleph stay with the captured Avengers Thor, Tony Stark, Black Widow, The Hulk, And Hawkeye. Ex Nihilo Explains that he has created a new Adam for the earth he will remake. The adam frees himself from his cocoon, and starts muttering in builders code. Ex Nihilo explains that this was new and unexpected, before being shot with Hyperion's Lasers. We now see that Captain America, Smasher, And Hyperion are here. Cap goes up to Tony, and Tony says that he thought the plan was to call everyone. Cap says "It Was. I Did." He then presses A button in his helmet, and Eden teleports him and the fellow Avengers to the garden. They battle, and Abyss takes control of the Hulk, who later breaks free. The Avengers break the captured ones free.
Eventually, Captain Universe presents herself, and Ex Nihilo And Abyss bow down to her. Aleph says "ERROR: Deity Negative" and refuses to accept that she is the mother. She Vaporizes him, and The Avengers take the Adam with them. When Ex Nihilo asks why, Cap says that they made him human, and he needs to be with his own kind. Ex Nihilo Says "You Have To Wonder, Don't You? Out of all the worlds, the Mother chose yours." The Cap responds, "You Want My Best Guess? It's An Avengers World."
Notes
- Feilong in Invincible Iron Man (Vol. 5) #1 criticizes the Avengers for not keeping Mars for humanity.
Trivia
- This issue's cover was originally conceived to continue into the covers for issues 4 through 6.[1] The idea to finish the image from issues 1 to #3 into a 180° panorama was later revisited in Weaver's variant covers for issues Avengers (Vol. 5) #25 to Avengers (Vol. 5) #27.[2]
