"Under the Surface" Guest-starring Daimon Hellstrom (aka Hellstorm). Script by Fabian Nicieza. Art by Norm Breyfogle. Cover by Leonardo Manco. In the waning moments of the Avengers' battle against the Grim Reaper in Avengers (3rd series) #11, Mockingbird asked the Wasp to deliver a cryptic message to Hawkeye. And several weeks later in Colorado, an associate of Daimon Hellstrom approached Clint Barton and requested that he travel to Hellstrom's home in Fire Lake, Massachusetts...for a matter involving his deceased wife. And thus began the ace archer's quest to rescue Mockingbird's soul from the depths of hell -- specifically, Mephisto's Arena of Tainted Souls! Thankfully, Hawkeye has brave and powerful friends to help him on his journey! But is Hellstorm one of them? The deceptions and lies run deep in the Netherworld! Cameo appearances by the Scarlet Witch, Enchantress, Pluto, Anton Devine, Jaine Cutter, Isaac Christians (aka Gargoyle), and Techno (as Ogre).
