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. Cameo appearances by the Swordsman, Magdalene, Tony Stark, Tuc, and the Wasp.
