Shock follows shock for Earth's Mightiest Heroes as they reel from the opening salvo of The Crossing storyline! The Vision and Giant-Man make a gruesome discovery: Marilla and Rita DeMara (the second Yellowjacket) are dead! Apparently murdered in Avengers Mansion by high-intensity plasma blasts! Unbelievable! How did that happen in the Avengers' very own headquarters?! Could it have something to do with that mysterious door in the sub-basement of the mansion? Moments later the Avengers' worst fears are confirmed when a bizarre creature (called Neut) slays Gilgamesh in the biocenter! The Vision chases off Neut, but not before the deadly intruder issues dire warnings to the synthezoid avenger (and his former wife)! Is the past coming back to haunt Earth's Mightiest Heroes? The answer appears to be yes as Avengers Mansion turns into a chamber of horrors! Story continues in Iron Man 321.
