Synopsis
LIONHEART OF AVALON PART 1 A young boy, Martin Leigh, hangs a poster of Captain America in his room while his mother, Kelsey, looks on and wishing he had someone to look up to. Meanwhile, Hawkeye tries giving Captain America advice on women, calling him old-fashioned to the point that he won't even hit female villains. Wasp alerts them over the scanner that she has found the Wrecking Crew and suddenly appears giant-size holding three members and the armored truck they were attempting to rob. Thunderball trips her up, which allows his teammates to fall free. Captain America runs through the pub where the Leighs are present to get to Thunderball while Hawkeye squares off against Wrecker, Bulldozer and Piledriver. Wasp attempts to put down the armored truck with the guards inside but the distraction allows Thunderball to pull her down but in doing so, the falling truck takes out the rest of the Wrecking Crew. Captain America attacks Thunderball while Wasp is incapacitated when she shrinks down. Captain America attempts to shield the Leigh family from Thunderball's blow and is knocked out with a broken jaw for his troubles as Thunderball prepares to finish him off.
