From The Ashes Of Defeat "From the Ashes of Defeat--!" Kang's troops advance on the city as Kang escapes. Although hopeless, the Avengers decide to put up a fight against the never-ending army. Quicksilver is put out of action by a stray blast while trying to help a mother and child. The rest of the Avengers battle on but are eventually overwhelmed and captured. Although Kang's law states that monarchs conquered are to be executed, Kang wants to marry Ravonna. Meanwhile, Quicksilver is nursed back to health by the mother he saved. The rest of the generals led by Baltag rebel against Kang and try to assassinate him. Kang is then forced to team up with Captain America, Hawkeye and the Scarlet Witch to save Ravonna and liberate her civilisation. Baltag's forces are routed and a recovered Quicksilver helps out. Kang sends the Avenger back to their time just as Baltag leaps out and fires a shot at Kang. Captain America tries to warn him, but Ravonna leaps in the way and is shot herself. Kang's guards kill Baltag and the Avengers are transported away leaving Ravonna dying in Kang's arms, unsure whether she will survive or not.
