USA NEW AVENGERS ANNUAL # 01

AVENGERS TOWER becomes the ultimate battleground as the New Avengers are targeted by one of their most fiercest new enemies yet. The all new ADAPTOID has come to take them down... and wait till you see who it is. Plus- An avenger gets married!!! All this and the reuniting of House of M mega-team of Brian Bendis and Olivier Copiel.

Agent Connelly of Hydra opens this issue briefing a badly burned Yelena Belova in her hospital bed on the original Super-Adaptoid. He reminds the Black Widow of her failure to protect HYDRA's assets in the Savage Land, and her willingness to seek retribution for the New Avengers' attack. He introduces to her two scientists from Advanced Idea Mechanics who have synthesized the Adaptoid's biology. The agent offers Yelena the means to become HYDRA's new Adaptoid to exact her revenge on the Avengers, adding that "the more public a beating you can give them, the better it is for all of us." Asking her what her answer will be, tears stream from her eyes.
