Frank Castle and Harold Finch have been captured by Decima Agents – and are now forced into a meeting with John Greer – who is the man behind the scenes, controlling all the stakes. Greer wants Finch to accept his ultimatum and join him – or one by one, every superhero will have their identities exposed to the known world. That won’t be a problem for people like Tony Stark – whose identities are public knowledge – but for people like Spider-Man, who have a family and friends their identity is protecting - it’s another matter.
However, Finch is a smart man – and has thought of a backup plan! Decima’s Agents all wear masks of their own – so that makes the perfect cover for Luke Cage and Anya Corazon to sneak into Greer’s HQ – right under the nose of the man who currently has all the cards.
Meanwhile – Daredevil, Melinda May and FitzSimmons race against the odds to stop Samaritan from going online in New York – but first, they’ll have to fight their way to the top of the Empire State Building – which is swarmed with both rogue SHIELD Agents and those who openly support Decima!

Harold Finch has been taken via Quinjet to the top of the Empire State Building as the only person who can stop Samaritan from going online in the dramatic conclusion to this summer’s epic event! However – can even Finch stop Samaritan for good, or just delay its release?
Meanwhile, Melinda May, Anya Corazon, Luke Cage and The Punisher have to stall for time against an army that outnumbers them almost seven hundred to one – as every SHIELD agent available and every Decima Mercenary converge on the Empire State Building – with or without knowledge of Decima’s true purpose – in an effort to hunt them down. Whilst this means that the group are going to eventually gain some allies in the form of Mockingbird and Nick Fury, they're still going to be vastly outnumbered and heavily outgunned. If they were to stop Samaritan however, things might take a different turn. There's just one problem. Finch has been shot, and lies bleeding, and heavily wounded. Before he looses consciousness he's going to have to talk FitzSimmons through the process, provided that they themselves can avoid attack from the massive army.
But whilst this is all going on, someone's coming for John Greer. He has a press conference where he's about to announce a new era for humanity - with or without the aid of Samaritan, but first, he's going to have to avoid the wrath of Matt Murdock - The Man without Fear!

“THE APLHA OF THE OMEGA”
Who was Arkady Rossovich? After the Iron Curtain descended on Europe, a variety of “so called” minorities from Crimea, Caucasus, Bulgaria, Armenia and similar countries were rounded up and forcibly relocated to Siberia. The official justification for these deportations was alleged collaboration with their former Nazi oppressors and resistance to Soviet control. One of these minorities was an albino boy. In the harsh and unforgiving endless winter of Siberia, that boy would become a man and discover his true gift to the world – death. With his “death spores,” he could weaken or kill anybody in his vicinity, drawing their strength into himself and making it his own. His family would be the first to discover this – but far from the last. The Soviets forged him into a weapon. Then they made him a Super Soldier. This is his story. This is the bloody and tragic origin... of Omega Red.
