SPOILERS: Steve Rogers Makes A Shocking Revelation In Today's SECRET EMPIRE #4
Today's Secret Empire featured more shocking twists and turns as an unexpected player intervened in the battle, big truths were revealed, and a cliffhanger ending wrapped things up in a huge way...
Secret Empire #4 hit stands today and while it wasn't quite as momentous as previous instalments, it featured a lot of twists and turns. For starters, we learned that The Punisher is more than happy to help Hydra providing he reports to Steve Rogers, while the truth about some of the members of Captain America's team of Avengers has also been revealed. Scarlet Witch is serving Hydra because she's been possessed by the chaos demon Chthon, while The Vision has been infected by nanites.
Interestingly, the original Thor (a.k.a. Odinson) simply thinks he's doing what's right for Asgard.
Hank Pym/Ultron also intervened in the fight between the two teams as they race to retrieve the shards of a Cosmic Cube - Namor has already given his piece to Steve as Atlantis as formed an alliance with Hydra - and it's revealed that Iron Man's group doesn't stand a chance as Cap has someone on the inside! Who? The possibilities are Hawkeye, Quicksilver, Mockingbird, Falcon, Hercules, and Ant-Man.
