Awakened by a dream involving death and Cap becoming the Kree Supreme Intelligence, Rick Jones calls the Avengers for help. He meets Cap at a diner in Arizona, where the pair is attacked by a robot of unknown origin targeting Rick. Cap slows the robot down enough to Rick to escape on Cap's flycycle, but Rick's will is overridden before he can get back to the Pantheon for help. Instead, he ends up in the hands of those who tried to capture him, whose identities are unrevealed at this time.
