In fact , Steve Rogers just revealed his Modern programme to put down the Avengers . The only thing is , the ‘ Avengers ’ he ’s going after are n’t the one fans are familiar with , as Marvel Comics ’ disconsolate time to come reveals Earth ’s New Mightiest Heroes have become nothing more than pawns of totalitarianism .

In a preview forAvengers : Twilight#2 by Chip Zdarsky and Daniel Acuña , Captain America has taken to the streets , press tainted policeman of the law who are unjustly terrorizing civilians . This comes after the now - elderly Steve Rogers - who had his superhuman enhancements deprive before the event of this series - actually regained his magnate at the end of the former emergence , and he ’s now using them to once again push for truth and justice .
