(W) Jason Aaron (A) Ed McGuinness (CA) Leinil Francis Yu

      Welcome to a world where Thor is a hard-drinking atheist who despises hammers. Where Tony Stark never built an Iron Man armor. Where Wakanda is dismissed as a myth. And where Captain America was never found in the ice because there were no Avengers. Instead this world has always been protected by the Squadron Supreme of America. And now the Squadron faces an attack from some of their fiercest enemies, like Dr. Juggernaut, the Black Skull, the Silver Witch and Thanos with his Infinity Rings. Why is the Daywalker Blade the one man who seems to remember that the entire world has somehow been...reborn?
