Synopsis

Wonder Man battles Captain Atlas, who is wearing Nega Bands and plays dirty as he keeps banging them together to switch places with Rick Jones. Realizing that a war is brewing between the Kree and the Shi'ar with Earth caught in the middle, Captain America decides to call a meeting of all the Avengers. Simon puts his acting on hold to go save the universe.
