Read more about Weather Witch at: Wikipedia Official Site: Marvel Avengers World is an ongoing comic series that was published by Marvel Comics as part of the third wave of Marvel NOW!, from January 2014 until July 2015. Spencer said, "What the book is all about is really in the title. This is a book about geography. It's about what Marvel Earth looks like now. Obviously we've seen the Avengers make a pretty big statement about this world being under their protection and them being the representatives of our world. So it felt like it was time to do a book about what that planet looks like; not just Marvel New York or Marvel Space, but what does Marvel Europe, Asia and Africa look like right now? So it was a chance to do a story that was really global in scope and go some places that maybe we haven't been to before and really play with the idea of what that changing landscape would look like." Starting out with Steve Rogers and Bruce Banner strolling down corridors within the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier Iliad, they soon arrive in the presence of current head of S.H.I.E.L.D Director Maria Hill. Discussing matters involving the cooperation between the Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D regarding the peacekeeping of national and global security. First order of business was the sudden emergence of an unusual string of natural disasters brewing all up and down the eastern seaboard, to which Hyperion, Thor, Captain Marvel were able to answer the call for help in Regina, Canada. Elsewhere, a massive full-scale riot has broken out over all of Madripoor with the only calm (including well guarded) zone being a strange temple housed by Gorgon and the Hand whom are enacting a strange ritual which raises the island out of the water up upon the head of a massive beast....a dragon that is as large as an island continent. Black Widow, Falcon, Shang-Chi, and Wolverine are sent to Madripoor. Hawkeye, Nightmask, Spider-Woman, and Star Brand are sent to investigate massive disappearances in Velletri, Italy. Meanwhile, A.I.M.'s Scientist Supreme Andrew Forson uses an unknown device accelerated the flow of time in the limits of the A.I.M. Island, creating in a matter of hours for the real world years of progress and transforming A.I.M. into a technologically advanced empire. When the source of mysterious seismic events was revealed to be A.I.M. Island, Smasher went to investigate along with Cannonball and Sunspot. When they arrived to the location, they were captured by the A.I.M. Troopers. This leaves Steve Rogers and Bruce Banner to deliver the course of action against this. Smasher is trying to break out of a containment cell whilst Andrew Forson and another A.I.M. agent look on. The agent comments that Sunspot and Cannonball are in their infirmary and will be treated while bringing up Smasher's connections with the Shi'ar. He then hints that they can make them useful to A.I.M. Andrew does not want this and tells the agent just to keep them contained. The agent informs the Scientist Supreme that Izzy is not just an Avenger but also a Sh'iar Superguardian. Andrew likes this and orders her release, saying she will be his "messenger." Meanwhile, on the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier Iliad, Bruce Banner is briefing Captain America, Maria Hill and some other S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents on the A.I.M. Island situation....how it has grown considerably and although it's outward growth has now stopped, it is still getting taller. Bruce also states that the technology A.I.M. has is way ahead of theirs and he is still trying to figure out what kind of containment field A.I.M. has set up to hold Smasher and the others. Captain America orders Thor's team to go and help. Back on the island, Smasher finally gets out of her cell and discovers an alien-looking garden outside. She tries to brush it off as nothing as she's been to other planets before. Andrew Forson approaches Izzy leading to her taking an aggressive stance, but to her surprise he apologizes and says they did not mean to attack and it was out of confusion due to the recent growth of A.I.M. Island. He tells her that her teammates are being cared for and they can leave at any time. However, before they go he wants to show her something. He tells Smasher that the island's growth was necessary to protect themselves for what is to come. As they tour the garden, Andrew says that a being that has seen the end of the universe lives there and that he opened A.I.M.'s eyes to allow them to better mankind. Andrew Forson's speech mentions an end to all sickness, which strikes a chord with Smasher who lost her grandfather to illness. Smasher is then stung by an alien bug and her body begins to change. Andrew explains this change is to prepare her for what is to come and they are then approached by the being who has seen the end of the Universe....Jude the Entropic Man. He tells Izzy the truth behind all things....that everything dies. Izzy does not want this and the Scientist Supreme says she will tell the world of this as their Messenger. Izzy stands ready in a new golden uniform.
Weather Witch has not been a contender in any CBUB matches.
