In the ruins of the Baxter Building, Magneto finds himself surrounded by a horde of zombified heroes, including Spider-Man, Colonel America, Thor, Daredevil, Moon Knight, Giant Man, Luke Cage, Angel, and Wolverine. The zombified heroes try to talk Magneto into surrendering. Spider-Man tells him the fight is hopeless, and Daredevil adds that it's clear he's about to pass out.
