===issue #3=== : ''M&M presents:'' <br> '''INVASION FROM THE CENTER OF THE EARTH - Part III: <font color=darkred>''"Burned"''</font>''' <br> ''November 16, 2007''. <br> ''GM'': KEVIN :: '''ISSUE RECAP''': ::::* '''Opening Cut-Away Scene I''': Leading in to foreshadow upcoming story arcs - [[Avengers 1888 Issue #4 Preview 1]] ::::* '''Opening Cut-Away Scene II''': the Horrible Case of Bloody Jack - [http://wiki.rpg.net/index.php/The_Horrible_Case_of_Bloody_Jack#issue_.233 PART III] - these scenes have opened on the scenes of "the Ripper" murders. ::: The Avengers seal their plans to invade the Isle of Wight, hoping to rush in and steal the stone Mehir, believing that will diminish the effects on/of the Magma-Men. ::: As night wanes Argonaut toils away into sleepless hours working with his "father" Master Pym to create a Lava-Skiff to be used to approach the magma-laced land around the hole at the former Osbourne House site. ::: On the morn the team loads cargo onto the [insert name of SHIELD carrier here] and sailed down the Channel toward the Isle of Wight. ::: Arriving in the boiling seas two miles out from the Isle, Argonaut gave word (card) and the carrier's cargo-hold opened to the ocean, jettisoning them out to ride the heated waves. ::: Holding tight and ducking the siring waves the Avengers used the Lava-Skiff's armor to ride up the, now partially melted, white cliff-faces of the Isle. ::: Quickly approaching the Avengers could see the movement of the "Stone Apes" as they spread their magma menace. ::: Only quick thinking saves Marshal America when lava melts the steel bottom of the skiff, spashing heat into the passenger flat then suddenly... ::: The Magma-Men attack, flipping the Lava Skiff into the air! Marshal America climbs the flipping hulk landing on the bottom-side as it pitches and begins to sink as Argonaut splashes down and begins to sink in the volcanic lake! ::: Meanwhile the Wasp rushes toward the Mehir stone, blasting Magma-Men as she flies. Then explodes the base of the Mehir into gravel. ::: The Crown Chief of the Magma-Men watches, ordering his minions to attack as D and Wasp swarm the pit. ::: But it is Jinku, the Witch Doctor that proves to be the chief threat as pulses of heat radiate from the ground through the legs and hearts of the Magma-Men - she commands them to wrap the flying heroes in their porous molten rock snares! Marshal America yells out for his teammate as the Wasp's cocoon smashes to the ground, while D summons up his mystics to thwart the Earth from jailing him! As Jinku raises her trump card, the captured Professor Harver Rupert Elder of Eton, on a gust of heated air! ::: Seemingly pleading with his king to stop the invasion, Molto, watches as Jinku is brought from the sky - seemingly killed and falling into the pit... He runs and leaps into the black following his Jinku! As the Professor falls with them. ::: Elsewhere the land-locked Avengers survive the onslaught of the Magma-Men, as Argonaut "swims" his way back to the skiff just in time to see the magma landscape super-cool with the fall of Jinku the Witch Doctor! ::: Rushing the pit D swoops in to save the Professor. Now blinded and slightly mad from his subterranean "hollow earth" experience the Professor calls out for the sake of his peopl... STUDENTS who were still lost somewhere at the beautiful Valley of Diamonds. ::: Marshal America and Argonaut close quickly as the massive Mehir stone falls and hovers nearly a foot above the ground, hanging on what D sees and the world "ley lines" - interconnected across the land to the other Mehir stones and through the hole to its antipode! The good Marshal raises his Star-Spangled Saber to slice the malignant artifact in half - when suddenly D yells out ''"HOLD!"''. ::: With the eldritch heat of Jinku the Witch Doctor fading the Magma-Men cannot bare the surface world and begin to solidify into stone statues of their former selves. Only the Crown Chief King yet crawls back toward his home. With his crown breaking from his brow, it is an Avenger that aids him! Lady Van Dyne, respecting the nobility of the king, helps the hobbled scion into the darkness as the volcanic pit begins to close. ::: And looking back, Wasp sees she is the only one small enough to enter the collapsing hole to find and save Professor Elder's students as she, without a goodbye, zips into the black.... (to be continued in "The Wasp at the Earth's Core!") ::: The team has won the day and the world is save, from the evil hands of the Magma-Men, a threat no single man of renown could thwart!
