  Magneto pulls the Avengers West Coast base into space to try and reach his comatose daughter. The Acts of Vengeance draws to a close as the Avengers figure out Loki is the mastermind behind the plot. Wizard escapes from Avengers headquarters and returns to his villainous allies but the Avengers follow his trail. While the rest of the bad guys go their separate ways, Thor battles Loki and puts a stop to his plans. The Wasp is the first one home from the ordeal and discovers that Wanda has gone mad and taken down U.S.Agent and Wonder Man.
