The solicitation for June’s Spider-Man 2099: Exodus #3 reveals how the 2099 Masters of Evil killed the Avengers. When they discover how a Celestial has fallen to Earth, the Masters of Evil have returned from the stars to claim it as their own. Moon Knight was the only Avenger to survive but is now back with new versions of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes.

Ryan Stegman and Ken Lashley’s covers for the issue show the new Avengers 2099 lineup. Aside from Moon Knight, we also have Spider-Man 2099, Black Panther, Hulk, a female Captain America, Spectrum, and a female hero who isn’t immediately recognizable. The bottom half of Stegman’s cover gives us a look at the Masters of Evil, which consists of Iron Patriot and Baron Zemo.

“Roving the spinner-racks and trading cards of the early 1990s, the world of 2099 was my first future dystopia, its neon haunted visions of Marvel’s future close to my heart. And at the forefront of that future, fighting as anyone with his name always has, for the everyday folks of the future? Miguel O’Hara. Spider-Man 2099. So here, decades later, celebrating the 30th Anniversary of 2099 is a dream come true! And there was never any question who’d be the face of this celebration…your friendly, futuristic Spider-Man!” Orlando said in a statement. “And for Miguel, this fight is bigger than ever, since it’s his first time going toe to toe with one of Spider-Man’s greatest villains. Let’s make history together in SPIDER-MAN 2099: EXODUS — and lead the people of 2099 into a new tomorrow!”

“Steve and this incredible lineup of artists not only take you on a whirlwind tour of the Marvel U of 2099, but reveal some stunning secrets and deliver a time-breaking end no fan will want to miss,” Editor Mark Paniccia added.
