This feels so strange...I keep expecting to slip away...or wake up and find this was all some dream. And...ever since the fight ended, I can't stop thinking about it...what I saw when they were pulling me back through time. It was like split seconds of...my future? Or was it my possible futures? More than one. I saw me and Sharon together, with children...a long life...happiness. But I saw something else, too. Something awful... ... Is it some kind of warning? And if it is, how do I fight the future?

Synopsis for 1st story
Captain America: Reborn #6
During the battle, Henry Pym enters the Red Skull's ship and frees Sharon Carter. Meanwhile, Rogers, determined to stop the Skull at all costs, tackled the representation of his enemy's consciousness and began to strangle him in hopes of killing his body. Surprised that Rogers would go that far, the Red Skull consciousness evacuated Rogers' body, allowing Rogers to reassert control. He then swats Sin away, before reconciling with Bucky. They then join with friends to defeat the M.O.D.O.K.s.
Back in the A.I.M. ship, Pym and Carter fight their way to Arnim Zola and prevent him from hacking into Vision's operating system and obtaining all their secrets. Just then, the Red Skull reemerges back in his robotic body. Enraged about being trapped again in his robotic shell, the Skull swears that Rogers will pay. To prevent him from escaping the area, Sharon Carter uses Pym's size changing technology to enlarge Red Skull into a giant. While Rogers leads the Avengers into a coordinated attack on the giant menace and thus holding him in place, Vision accesses the ship's weapons systems to fire on the Red Skull. As the Skull falls against the attack, Rogers is seen by the civilian bystanders for the first time and they cheer his return. Although Rogers is certain that The Red Skull's consciousness was destroyed along with the robot body, Black Widow reminds the team that Norman Osborn and his Avengers will on the scene momentarily and they leave the area immediately; Rogers himself is surprised to hear about that.
Back at the H.A.M.M.E.R. Helicarrier, Osborn is briefed on the incident, and begins his plans to deal with his newly strengthened enemies. He also comments on Sin, who was too close to the destruction of Red Skull, and caught in the explosion. She is alive, but her face was burned in the explosion, leaving her with a Red Skull face just like her father.
In Brooklyn, Rogers broods about the apocalyptic visions of the future he experienced and wonders how to avert it. As he ponders, Sharon arrives to take him to the party in his honor downstairs, but Rogers asks for one peaceful moment with her first.

Synopsis for "Kids with Guns vs. the Eternal Angel of Death"
Invincible Iron Man (Vol. 2) #18
Tony makes his way through the rocky terrain of Afghanistan to the lab where he and Ho Yinsen built the first Iron Man armor, unknown that he is being followed.
In New York, Avengers Tower, Black Widow and Maria Hill are imprisoned a cell apart, communicating by tapping on their walls. They are interrupted by Victoria Hand and Madame Masque checking on them.
Stark has finally managed to delete the Superhuman Registration Act database from his mind, before activating that the Iron Man Mark 0 armor. However, he is shot in the shoulder by two kids who followed him.
On the H.A.M.M.E.R. Helicarrier, Christopher M. Walsh has located Stark's location through the activation of the armor's repulsor battery. He immediately reports this to Osborn, who is glad for this. He tells Walsh that he intends to march into Afghanistan in his Iron Patriot armor and kill Stark once and for all.
Stark looks behind him to see the two kids, holding a gun. Unable to understand their language, he activates the armor's translation subroutine to translate for him. Apparently, the kid not holding the gun is demanding to become a man of war just like him. Taking a look at his armor, Stark then turns back to the kids, saying no and has the gun's barrel pointed to his chin, demanding that they either kill him or leave. They hesitate, so he takes the gun and points it at them,, scaring them off, before he says the eternal angel of death forgives them. He then puts on his armor and flies off to Dubai.
On the Helicarrier, Victoria give the order to dissect the Crimson Dynamo armor they recovered from Stark's hideout. But apparently, the real Madame Masque was in it; Victoria is horrified by her disfigured face. In fact, Pepper has disguised as Madame Masque, freeing Black Widow and Hill and reveals that she has an escape plan. Already, her Rescue armor has uploaded a virus to the H.A.M.M.E.R. mainframe, taking control of all the armors on the Helicarrier. Nonetheless, Osborn goes out to kill Stark once and for all..

Synopsis for "The Fine Print (Part 2)"
Thor #612
Brün, leader of the Dísir, knows that Asgard will send reinforcements to Hell and they must make haste in piercing Hela's fortress.
Back in Asgard, Tyr is worried that they may never be able to combat the Dísir, given that they slew Hakon so easily. Thor reminds him that Hakon was killed by simply saying their name. Kelda then approaches to tell the history of the Dísir. They were once Bor's Valkyrie, until the night he found them feasting on the flesh of their own kin. And so Bor cursed them, declaring that they shall only feast on Asgardian souls but never on Hel or Asgard soil. Such scorned women are dangerous, but Kelda assures everyone that she and Heimdall can detect them if they ever approach Asgard. Hela then tells the sons of Odin that she can only bring two to her realm. Knowing that, as king, he must remain, Balder dispatches both Thor and Tyr to go to Hel and save their dead brethren.
But when they arrived, the Odinsons runs right into an ambush. Thor soon finds that even Mjolnir cannot harm the Dísir. Hela manages to send out her legions of the dead, each puppet containing a sliver of her soul, to distract the Dísir, while Thor and Tyr flee into her fortress. Meeting a puppet that resembles her, Hela insists that they must make haste. But Thor refuses to budge until she explains what's going on. Reluctantly, Hela explains that when the Siege of Asgard begun, Loki came to her, revealing that the Dísir indeed existed. But he also brought their bane -- the Eir-Gram.
And now, the Dísir have stolen the weapon. The only few ways to retrieve it is if she abstains from her duty of protecting the dead to summon the Eir-Gram, or they go directly to Mephisto's Realm. Thor advises that Tyr stay to bolster her defenses, while he goes to fetch the Eir-Gram and averts this doom.
Outside Hela's fortress, the Dísir Göndul foresees that Thor is going to retrieve their bane. But Brün isn't concerned, for her swordsister Kara had taken the sword to Mephisto's fourth courtroom.
Back inside Castle Hela, Tyr pleads with Thor to let him go instead, fearing that he may be no match for the Dísir and cited that Thor was a better leader than him. Thor admits that while he fought with gods and men, there are no such things here in Hel, only Hela's puppets. He tells Tyr that his skills as a tactician are his best strength, his magic.
In transit to Hell, Thor is brought before Mephisto himself, wanting to talk before the Thunder God sets foot in his domain. He warns Thor that his subjects won't be pleased with his presence. He tries to make a bargain, promising to give him the Eir-Gram and a "happily ever after" for Asgard if he agrees. But Thor remains silent the whole time. Seeing that he wants to do this the hard way, Mephisto grants him entry to Hell.
