Avengers: Time Is Running Out 1 (of 2)

The end of the multiverse is imminent—and the Avengers are on opposing sides!

What happens when even Earth’s mightiest heroes realize they can’t save everyone? When allies become enemies and every decision determines the fate of entire universes?

In *Avengers: Time Is Running Out 1*, the Marvel Multiverse is hurtling inexorably toward its destruction. The time for heroic speeches and easy solutions is over. Now it’s a matter of sheer survival—and the price the Avengers are willing to pay for it.

Steve Rogers, Carol Danvers, and SHIELD are hunting down Reed Richards and other members of the former community of heroes who, in a desperate attempt to save their world, have crossed moral boundaries. Old friendships shatter, trust becomes scarce, and the question of who is actually still on the right side can no longer be answered with any certainty.

Meanwhile, Thor and Hyperion set out on a nearly hopeless mission into the depths of the cosmos. Tony Stark has vanished without a trace, and Doctor Doom, of all people, is pursuing his own plan to save existence from destruction.

But can the infamous ruler of Latveria be trusted when the fate of the entire multiverse is at stake?

Here’s what awaits you:

• Volume 1 of 2 in the monumental Marvel saga about the impending doom of the Multiverse.
• The Avengers at a Crossroads: Captain America, Captain Marvel, Reed Richards, and other Marvel heroes find themselves caught in a conflict with no easy answers.
• Cosmic Threat: Thor and Hyperion embark on a mission from which no one may return.
• Doctor Doom Takes Center Stage: One of the Marvel Universe’s most dangerous villains could become the key to hope.
• Hollywood Connection: The comic book saga is one of the sources of inspiration for the Marvel film *Avengers: Doomsday*.
• Epic superhero action with moral dilemmas: A story about responsibility, self-sacrifice, and the limits of heroism.

If saving one world means destroying another—who gets to decide which one survives?

*Avengers: Time Is Running Out 1* is the first installment of a two-part Marvel epic in which not only the multiverse but also the ideals of its greatest heroes are at stake.

Because sometimes saving the world isn’t enough. You also have to be able to live with the consequences.
