We should n’t be that surprised , really — we’ve known for a while that AIM would have a role in Crystal Dynamics and Square - Enix’supcoming Avengers action biz . But now we ’ve get a better characterization of the game ’s story , and George Tarleton ’s big - headed role in it .

As part of a turgid livestream about the game ’s mechanic , Square - Enix has leave out a brand fresh story trailer for Marvel ’s Avengers . A quite a little of it , we already knewfrom retiring coup d’oeil — the Avengers are no longer gather , broken apart by the end of Captain America in an Avengers - celebration solar day gone awfully haywire . That is , until untried Inhuman Kamala Khan , themagnificent Ms. Marvel , shows up on their dust doorsteps toreunite her beloved heroes .

What this new trailer reveals , however , is that Kamala knows the Avengers ’ shattering was a setup , brought about by a seeming ally : scientist George Tarleton , who ’s using the rise of Inhumanity , the decease of Captain America , and his own transformation into something more than human to wipe out superheroes for good .

In the cartoon strip , and in Marvel ’s Avengers , Tarleton becomes the infamous floating bighead that is MODOK , the Mental / Mobile / Mechanized Organism contrive Only for Killing , after transmissible experimentation to increase his intelligence also physically do his head to grow to enormous size , necessitating a flying chairperson to support his fresh body . It seems that a similar occurence will be on the cards here , as Tarleton goes from setting up the Avengers ’ downfall , to need to use AIM to help curtail the rise of superheroes , before becoming the literal Big Bad himself , as he cackles maniacally about want to stop superpower once and for all .

All that said : it ’s pretty cool that we ’re gon na get to run a big - budget comic Quran television game about Kamala Khan beat up MODOK . Thank goodness decades of comic book movies have let us embrace just how gleefully silly the root fabric is !
