One bite can change a universe!Bruce Banner is sent to warn Earth’s mightiest heroes that the Mad Titan is on his way. But when he arrives at Doctor Strange’s Sanctum the city of New York is empty. With no one to help, Bruce’s fate looks sealed when Ebony Maw and Cull Obsidian arrive on Earth to retrieve the other Infinity Stones.



But out of the darkness Iron Man, Doctor Strange and Wong arrive and dispatch the Black Order members. But as the dust settles our heroes begin to feed on them before turning their attention on Banner. The Avengers have become Zombies.Luckily Hope Van Dyne saves Bruce and Spider-Man whisks him away to their base of operations. Spidey introduces Bruce to the rest of the survivors including Happy Hogan, Sharon Carter, The Winter Soldier, Okoye and Ant-Man’s former criminal colleague Kurt, and onboards him to the zombie apocalypse.



The team explains that the outbreak was caused when Hank Pym rescued his wife Janet Van Dyne from the microverse, who had become infected with a virus. The Avengers were brought in to help but only accelerated its spread as they became infected with the zombie virus. The world was quickly overrun.The team find a ray of hope when they receive a message from a former S.H.I.E.L.D. outpost to inform them that someone has found a cure. They make the dangerous trip across New York losing Sharon and Happy to the zombies and an injured Hope Van Dyne who sacrifices herself to get them to their destination.



There they find Vision who has survived the Zombie outbreak. Vision reveals that the Mind Stone could be the key to the survival of the human race, revealing the cured head of wisecracking Scott Lang.But Vision’s real motives become apparent when they find a mutilated T’Challa at the base and realise he’s trying to keep Wanda Maximoff alive and captive by feeding her other superheroes. The powerful Scarlet Witch escapes, killing Kurt, Bucky and Okoye.Spidey, the head of Scott Lang and T’Challa escape to Wakanda with the cure and Vision’s Mind Stone, just as the zombie Thanos has arrived in New York to collect the final Infinity Stone.
