American Comics: Multiverse of Madness

164. The Pym Cross.

New England, Connecticut.

Forty-five years ago.

"They're all down. The ambush was a success. Our insider played a huge role; they didn't see it coming."

Crossbones reported the battle situation to Red Skull with an excited tone, looking at the crashed Avengers Quinjet.

"The Avengers are all down..."

"Not all of them!"

Suddenly, a deafening roar came from above Crossbones.

Crossbones turned around in shock, only to see an enormous foot coming down on him like a giant mountain. The terrifying range left him with no chance to dodge. He could only cross his arms in front of him, trying to block the destructive shoe sole. The next moment, the furious foot stomped the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

Crossbones couldn't even make a sound. The surrounding people could only see blood spurting from under the shoe.

"You damned bastards! You think this is over?! We will never stop fighting! Never!"

Under the full moon, Ant-Man's gigantic form blotted out the sky. He roared like an enraged beast, looking at the gathering Hydra soldiers and countless tanks and cannons. Ant-Man had already prepared for the worst.

"Haha, you talk big, Pym. But that's not enough to keep you alive."

Below, Abomination, Avalanche, and Egghead, along with other supervillains, mocked Ant-Man's resistance. Though the Pym Particles could make his body enormous, he was already at his limit. Their plan had been successful, and many superheroes had been defeated. Pym was no exception. However, despite their mockery, they still slowly retreated. After all, Hank Pym in a frenzy was highly destructive. Crossbones' fate was a good example; no one wanted to be next.

"Hank, I'm here to help."

Wasp fluttered over, but she was soon targeted by Vulture and Hobgoblin. These super-criminals had clearly rehearsed countless times. To eliminate the heroes once and for all, they had gathered all the villains and classified them based on their characteristics. Seeing this, Ant-Man roared and punched at Hobgoblin, who was flying on his device. But Hobgoblin had anticipated this, and the punch missed.

But Ant-Man's goal wasn't to defeat him; he just wanted to distract him. Sure enough, Wasp seized the opportunity, releasing powerful electric currents from her hands that struck Ghost's chest.

At the same time, Ant-Man turned and grabbed Vulture. With his attention on Wasp, Vulture had no time to dodge and was caught by Ant-Man, who crushed him into a pulp. No more holding back. From the moment this war began, there was no more holding back.

S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Helicarrier had crashed in New York, signaling the supervillains' all-out attack. Hank Pym and Wasp were ambushed on their way to assist the heroes in New York. These villains had set a trap on their route. Now they were not far from the battlefield. Ant-Man's towering figure allowed him to see the firelight on the horizon. The heroes there needed their help.

"Janet, you have to get out of here quickly!"

Ant-Man shouted. He knew he couldn't leave. If anyone could quickly reach the battlefield, it would be Wasp, who could fly. As long as they dealt with the flying villains, they couldn't pursue Wasp.

"Vision and Captain America are in Washington. That's where Red Skull is launching his main attack! Find them; they know what to do. It's the only way!"

Ant-Man then threw Vulture's body at the Hydra soldiers, shouting.

"I'll hold them off, you go!"

"No!"

Tears welled in Wasp's eyes as she looked at Hank Pym's cracked goggles, her heart aching.

"I can't leave you here alone. I won't leave—"

She couldn't finish her sentence. In that moment of hesitation, the enemy's attack was upon them. Ant-Man turned his head, seeing only the image of his wife Wasp being pierced by a laser.

"Janet!"

The tragic roar echoed through the heavens and earth. Hank Pym trembled with rage, his heart-wrenching scream causing the surrounding soldiers to retreat several steps, many of them experiencing temporary hearing loss.

"I'm going to kill you all, I'm going to kill you all!"

"The big guy is mad, retreat!" Avalanche shouted, calling the others to leave. But he himself moved in the opposite direction, charging at Ant-Man.

"Pym, do you know why we intercepted you here?" Avalanche sneered.

Unfortunately, his words fell on deaf ears. Hank Pym, consumed by rage, only had one thought: to kill everyone in front of him. But it didn't matter to Avalanche. He wasn't expecting a response. Avalanche crouched down, placing his hands on the ground and unleashing his power. The massive seismic force triggered an earthquake, causing the flat ground to crumble.

Ant-Man was about to attack but was thrown off balance by the tremors. The ground collapsed, and Pym's leg got stuck in the fissure.

"You'll enjoy this, Pym."

Avalanche grinned menacingly.

"A swarm of ants can kill an elephant."

From the cracks in the ground, countless subterraneans crawled up. They were numerous and densely packed. These green creatures quickly climbed up Ant-Man's deeply trapped leg under the cover of darkness.

"No!"

Ant-Man screamed in agony as the pain overwhelmed him. The next moment, he felt something crawling into his mouth. The endless swarm of subterraneans poured over him, bringing him down. Hank Pym's massive body fell to the ground, causing a violent tremor. His vision was filled with the bodies of the subterraneans. Hank Pym's arm fell weakly.

He closed his eyes in despair.

Forty-five years later.

Connecticut, Pym Cross.

Alex stood silently, gazing at the colossal skeletal remains like a mountain. He remained silent for a long time before finally sighing.
