From Iron Man's steam-powered armor to Wolverine's silver-tipped claws, the Avengers not only pull the world back from the brink, but are now committed to keeping it ticking, and the team assembles in full force on an upcoming cover for Dark Ages #4, created by artist Pete Wood and shared on Twitter by writer Tom Taylor. A new world comes with new threats - namely Apocalypse's brainwashed army, which sends raiding parties of the undead after humanity - but the Avengers have transformed to face them. Seven years on, Iron Man has adjusted to the severe injuries sustained when the blackout began, Black Panther has gathered the world's greatest minds in Wakanda, and Spider-Man is the doting father of a spider-powered daughter.

As electronics failed, the world above paid the price - hospitals lost power, planes crashed, and society fell to pieces, only to be resurrected in a new form by its heroes. The attempt was successful, but Strange was killed, leaving the portal open in the Unmaker's prison deep within the Earth. Though incredibly powerful, the Unmaker is still a machine, and so the Sorcerer Supreme opened a portal to a dimension which emits a constant electromagnetic pulse in a bid to shut it down. In Dark Ages #1, Doctor Strange and a team of heroes faced the godlike Unmaker. Currently on its second issue, the series from Tom Taylor and Iban Coello avoids many classic cliches of post-apocalyptic fiction to tell a story of hope and struggle, with Marvel's most famous heroes reimagined for a world where humanity works to survive without modern technology, as seen in awesome new cover art for Dark Ages #4.
