• Revolution Part Five · New Avengers · 22 pages

  It is an all-out ninja war as the New Avengers battle Elektra and her allies. Even though Dr. Strange has been stabbed, he is able to use his magic to break the Hand's control over Maya. Maya stabs Elektra and, to everyone's surprise and horror, she transforms into a Skrull as she dies.

Publisher’s description

In a pitched battle against the Hand, Doctor Strange is severely wounded. Now stuck in his astral form, he travels back to New York City to enlist Wong's help. Can Strange's assistant help to free him in time?
