Synopsis
Doom says the Beyonder is dead and he has ultimate power. The villains move to the area of Battleworld that was pulled from Denver and Owen shoots the bad guys into space to return to earth. A mysterious beam invades Hulk and then Spider-Woman. Doom summons the heroes to his new tower and offers to grant their wishes but they decline. The force inhabiting Spider-Woman transfers itself to Klaw. The heroes decide that Doom with the Beyonder's powers is too dangerous to exist and choose to battle him one last time. As the last vote is cast, they are destroyed in a gigantic explosion.
