The Grandmaster is dead, his game is coming apart at the seams, and Earth is doomed.

Well, that last part probably isn't true (and the Elder of the Galaxy probably isn't truly dead, either), but it's going to take the combined might of every Avenger available to save the planet.

In the next chapter of Avengers: No Surrender, by Al Ewing, Mark Waid, Jim Zub and Pepe Larraz, it's an all hands on deck situation as Earth's Mightiest Heroes race around the globe to save, well, everyone. Tackling the heart of the problem, however, are Lightning, Hercules, Sunspot and the Mighty Thor, who are determined to prevent's Earth's utter destruction.
