The Think Tank II facility in Oregon becomes a battlefield as the massive Hydra Egg matrix approaches catastrophic ignition. Johnny Storm is still restrained, weakened, and being used as the ignition source for the Eggs’ “multiplication cycle.”

The Salem’s Seven stand ready to protect the ritual, channeling dimensional power through Agatha Harkness.

Inside the collapsing chamber:

Josie’s science team, still held prisoner, attempts to sabotage the Eggs but fails.

The Seven prepare to force Johnny’s flame output into a focused ignition burst.

Reed and Ben desperately fight to reach Johnny.

Sue and Namor crash-land their Imperial Craft as a diversion to reach the core chamber.
