The Avengers face a threat even bigger and more menacing than they could have imagined as the desperate race to cure the zombie outbreak shifts into high gear! Caught in a massive explosion, Captain America, Hawkeye and Iron Man wake up in the midst of a city overrun by zombies. Miraculously, they haven't been turned, and they find themselves face-to-face with a mysterious scientist who claims to have a cure for the virus. But who is he really, and does he actually possess the antivirus that Bruce Banner has been struggling to create? More importantly: Is the Hulk immune to the zombie plague?

Bruce Banner (now apparently a geneticist, whatever) succumbs to the zombie virus while Cap, Tony, and Clint get saved by a Mysterious Benefactor. Whoever could it … yeah, it's just Jasper, the mad scientist who's going to be the Designated Villain of the piece. The best bits of this issue are the Cap flashbacks that are just manga-style recreations of scenes from the First Avenger; the zombie story remains fundamentally unsatisfying.
Yeah, yeah, that was a very important MCU Cap's origin flashback, yeah. The best choice for the zombie story. We didn't see the movie, thank you!
My god, it's a pain...
