This is the final issue, and it's picking up right after Avengers: Age of Ultron (the comic event by Bendis where Black Panther died by tripping and falling down a flight of stairs and the Avengers condoned Wolverine murdering one of their founders. It was a special time at Marvel.

Galactus proves just how far Marvel goes to decompress their super-mega-crossover events. Jonathan Hickman's Avengers run felt like it was about 700 issues long, with the Infinity super-mega-crossover event right in the middle of it.
