Armageddon is coming from Chip Zdarsky and Marvel Comics, their big Avengers summer crossover event, starting in June 2026. With Armageddon Assembles… but what's behind it all?
Today saw Marvel publish three books leading up to Armageddon with word of a fourth. Captain America #7 by Chip Zdarsky, Delio Diaz, Frank Alpizar, Wolverine: Weapons Of Armageddon #1 (of 4) by Chip Zdarsky, Luca Maresca and Dungeons Of Doom #2 (of 3) by Phillip Kennedy Johnson, Benjamin Percy, Robert Gill, Carlos Magno are all published today by Marvel Comics. So who are the players?

General Ross, of course, The Red Hulk, the hawk of the Marvel Universe.

There's Teri O'Barnes, mutant tracker who once upon a time, tracked Wolverine for the Weapon X folk who introduced him to a certain subject called adamantium. So she knows of what she speaks. And we have seen mention of super soldier creators Primewarrior elsewhere.

Captain America also being part of the whole Weapon project as well…

So as Wolverine goes looking for Primewarrior, and those they are now targeting who were once like him…

Captain America meets another player in Armageddon, the pacifist protestor Alina of The Homeland Party. Steve and Alina, Logan and Teri. We can see where this is all going.

While Primewarrior are dealing with problems of their own. What box might that be now?

Well, that would be the Ultimate Origin Boxes, or at least one of them, brought to the Marvel Universe from the Ultimate Universe by Miles Morales, and the asterix goes to the post Ultimate Endgame finale, Ultimate Universe Impact…

And as we meet another Armageddon voice in Latverian political leader Salvation…

A familiar face for the Captain, over at PrimeWarrior, they also gave Captain America in mind.

While Captain America doesn't seem to find what he's looking for…

Dungeons Of Doom suggests that the items in question have already been taken.

A device that was keeping a very dangerous mutant at bay…

A Wakandan herb that brings the dead back to the world of the living, maybe not in the way anyone would expect or even want…

The hammer of Sviksemi, a sorting hat of a weapon that always picks Slytherin, but grants the wielder great power.

The greatest weapon of all of course, being the truth.

And as for Alina, she has a lineage all of her own to bring into play.

That Doom, he put it about a bit, didn't he? Figuratively and literally… and all leading up to Armageddon with those Origin Boxes to come. Is this all about gaining superpowers through various means, whether they be Weapon X, Origin Boxes, or Doom's Devices? Will everyone be getting "Great Power" if they can pay for it? Maybe…
