AXIS is a 2014-2015 Marvel Comics Crisis Crossover between Uncanny Avengers, All-New Captain America, Magneto, and Loki: Agent of Asgard, written by Rick Remender as a continuation of Avengers & X-Men.Following his assimilation of Charles Xavier's brain, the Red Skull has taken over Genosha and instituted "re-education" camps to bolster his Evil Counterpart to the X-Men, the S-Men. However, his meddling with Xavier's brain reawakens a force of evil once thought vanquished, and leads to many heroes and villains undergoing "Inversion".Magneto must come to terms with his moral ambiguity and whether he wants to fully reform into a hero or revert back to villainy in pursuit of his goals. Loki, having seen his twisted future, decides to fight fate for all it's worth, but clashes with Doctor Doom, who has also seen the trickster god's future self and decided to kill him in the present to avert it ever happening.The series leads into several new and relaunched Marvel comics, including a second volume of Uncanny Avengers. | |

Beneath Notice | |
AXIS (Comic Book) / int_101500e | comment |
Beneath Notice: The inverted Avengers move to execute Red Skull in cold blood, only to find that someone with Avengers-Level clearance freed him from the mansion. Sam's response is to track down all the reserve Avengers and imprison them in microscopic prisons rather than sort through the list to find out who betrayed him. The person who actually freed Skull was Jarvis, who was pleading with Sam just moments before Red Skull's escape. | |

AXIS (Comic Book) / int_143939c1 | comment |
Trailers Always Spoil: Thanks to the mere existence of the Superior Iron Man title, as well as preview art from Johnathan Hickman's Time Runs Out crossover, we know that Tony Stark is going to remain inverted once the event is over and the Hulk's transformation in Kluh will be temporary. The solicits have also confirmed that several other heroes and villains will also continue with their new status quos once the story ends. Solicits for Spider-Man and the X-Men spoiled that Evan will indeed be restored to normal by the end of the event, despite the comic making a big deal out of Zenpool initially failing to restore his old personality. Other solicits ruined the reveal that Carnage survived his Heroic Sacrifice. | |

Villain Team-Up | |
AXIS (Comic Book) / int_169d22e6 | comment |
Villain Team-Up: Promo art implies this is the case between Doctor Doom, Sabretooth, Loki, Red Skull/Onslaught, Hobgoblin, and Carnage. The actual story is far more complex, with Magneto recruiting (and in some cases outright threatening) the Absorbing Man, Carnage, Doctor Doom, Enchantress, Hobgoblin, Loki, Mystique, Sabretooth, Jack O' Lantern, and Deadpool (who claims to not actually be with them, he just hitched a ride) to help fight the Sentinels. Though by this point, Loki, Deadpool, and Magneto were more on the Hero side of the fence, but still morally ambiguous enough to be considered Anti-Heroes. | |

The Sociopath | |
AXIS (Comic Book) / int_19851b86 | comment |
The Sociopath: Carnage is a diagnosed psychopath, and even after his Inversion he has to struggle with his murderous impulses. Tony's monologue and Red Skull's psychoanalysis of him hint that Tony was (and still might be) this. This is played straight when he gets inverted. All the inverted Avengers are this to the point where they are not even trusting their own teammates. | |

Poor Communication Kills | |
AXIS (Comic Book) / int_1c445e86 | comment |
Poor Communication Kills: The heroes came up with a plan to mix Dr. Strange's magic with Scarlet Witch's in order to allow Professor Xavier's consciousness to overcome Onslaught's. Thus the heroes attempt to distract him and his Iron Sentinels from the two as they work a complicated spell. No one bothered to brief Nova on this plan as he was literally in Onslaught's grip when they were explaining it. Thus he manages to accidentally sabotage it the moment they free him (partially thanks to Rogue's condescending manner of telling him to stay back while the adults take care of it). | |

Good Costume Switch | |
AXIS (Comic Book) / int_1f42c032 | comment |
Good Costume Switch: Sabretooth sports a new costume reminiscent of the one worn by his fallen enemy, Wolverine. Inverted Loki's costume still has the traditional green and gold, but also a lot of white, and switches horns for wings on their helmet/circlet. Maybe it's Evil Costume Switch though, depending on your opinion which one of them is better (or at least less annoying). | |

Good Is Not Nice | |
AXIS (Comic Book) / int_21f3aa44 | comment |
Good is Not Nice: Good feeling good doesn't mean that Carnage is going to stop with the pointy weaponry, though. Carnage also has no problems burning down a bank when it comes to stopping crime (after all, if it's been burned, no one can rob it, right?). Loki, while (theoretically) inverting to Lawful Good, turns into a massive jerk to their friends. He's a self-righteous, condescending and judgmental asshole. It's worth noting that for all of his original evil reputation and shady methods, the non-inverted Loki was not quite evil at all. Amora is a true jerkass as hero. She is more self-righteous, condescending, and judgmental than Loki and turns I Did What I Had to Do into a heroic equivalent of Never My Fault. | |

Chekhov's Gag | |

Chekhov's Gag: In AXIS: Hobgoblin #1, we see Hobgoblin shutting down a bridge to prevent people falling off of it, a nod towards The Night Gwen Stacy Died. Two issues later, Phil Urich ends up getting skewered by his own Goblin Glider in an attempt to kill Roderick Kingsley, the same thing to happen to Norman Osborn in that story. | |

Brutal Honesty | |
AXIS (Comic Book) / int_23ff95fb | comment |
Brutal Honesty: The inverted Loki is entirely unable to lie, but since he's still a smug, condescending dick no matter what his morality is set to, he uses the ability for this, doing things like goading Thor over his inability to lift his hammer while inverted. Unusually for this trope, Loki's inability to lie means he says truths that are even brutal to himself, namely that he genuinely does love his brother, and always has. | |

Even Evil Has Standards | |
AXIS (Comic Book) / int_319e4a2f | comment |
Even Evil Has Standards Carnage thinks that a world under the brutal fascist heel of Nazis sounds like fun, but the fact that he'd have to kowtow to Red Skull instantly sours him on the idea as it just isn't "country". Magneto is appalled by the Inverted X-Men and later says they've gone mad when they start espousing his old ideology. Admittedly, by this point, Magneto is more of an Anti-Hero than the Well-Intentioned Extremist Anti-Villain he originally used to be, but still. The inverted X-Men (especially inverted Havok) were horrified when they found out that inverted Sam Wilson decided to betray his own teammates by sapping Pym Particles from inverted Wasp (who happened to be Havok's wife) and using them to shrink his teammates. Even though the inverted X-Men want to take over the entire world for the mutants, they are disgusted by Sam Wilson's lack of camaraderie for his fellow Avengers. | |

Foregone Conclusion: Bruce is back as Doc Green in Time Runs Out, which is set after AXIS but released beforehand, so his transformation into Kluh, or at least into his stupid version in general is temporary at best.

Would Hurt a Child: The inverted Scarlet Witch has no qualms in attacking the (allegedly) three-years-old Valeria Richards. Although she mostly attacks the little girl for wearing the similar armor as Doctor Doom's and she only destroyed the armor, while Valeria wasn't injured by the attack. | |

Combat Pragmatist: The chief weapon of the Stark Sentinels that allows them to take down dozens of superheroes with ease? A Pym Particle Ray. All-New Captain America uses the same tactic by sapping the Wasp's Pym Particles when he stops trusting the rest of the Avengers completely. Only Spider-Man and Nova manage to escape due to the former's senses. | |

AXIS (Comic Book) / int_4cb71cf9 | comment |
Unwilling Roboticisation: Tony Stark's first action as the Superior Iron Man is to infect the city of San Francisco with the Extremis enhancile. Though not so much "unwilling" as "unknowingly", as the civilians are elated to have this chance at physical perfection, but then Tony starts charging people $100 a day to keep using it. | |

Mirroring Factions | |
AXIS (Comic Book) / int_4f6cf75 | comment |
Mirroring Factions: The point of the series is to highlight that the differences between Marvel's villains and its heroes isn't as vast as the latter group would like to think. One rather hard-hitting point briefly highlighted are the large number of events that revolve around different groups of heroes violently attacking each other. While a hero fighting another hero will try to give idealistic reasons for it, in practice it just means they'd rather come to blows than actually negotiate, compromise, admit fault, or attempt to work with another person. Both villains and heroes just want things their way all the time and can't solve a problem without forcing it. | |

Smug Super: Inverted Loki in the tie-in issues. His older self from the Bad Future (who, as the narration points out didn't change one bit) finds this hilarious, their friends not so much. After being called out by Odin he manages to better themself to the point of being worthy of Mjölnir, and then the inversion ends. | |

Crazy-Prepared: Hobgoblin still proves he's this even while inverted.

Too bad this information (and the Sentinels) fell into the hands of Red Onslaught. | |

Fighting from the Inside: Xavier is doing what he can to keep Red Onslaught's powers at manageable levels so the heroes can have a chance at beating him. "Zenpool" suggests that the original personalities of the inverted characters are still lurking somewhere under the surface, as in his tie-in issues, Deadpool is shown taking over as Zenpool's inner monologue voice, prompting him to make more Deadpool-ish decisions. Just how active these personalities are in other inverted characters is unclear, however, considering Deadpool's unique media awareness... Carnage has to actively suppress the urge to kill indiscriminately, further lending support to the above point. | |

AXIS (Comic Book) / int_6d871385 | comment |
Villainous BSoD: Several of the Inverted villains suffer this as they try to come to terms with actually feeling bad about things they used to be The Unapologetic about. Carnage clutching his face in guilt over his crimes is the current page image, and Mystique notes she intermittently feels the urge to cry out of shame whenever she comes close to killing someone. Dr. Doom is probably the most dramatically affected by it — he doesn't shed any tears, but still winds up having the MOTHER of all Heel Realizations, including that his Arch-Enemy Reed Richards was right all along and that despite his beliefs otherwise he has completely mismanaged the land of Latveria in pursuit of his selfish goals, among other things, and becomes desperate to make amends. | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero While he's far more of an Anti-Hero by that point, it was Magneto who unwittingly unleashed Red Onslaught by crushing the Red Skull's head in with a bunch of bricks.

Scarlet Witch's and Doctor Doom's inversion spell... doesn't go exactly as planned. | |

Only in It for the Money: Post-inversion, Roderick Kingsley is still a greedy, heartless bastard... but he's a greedy, heartless bastard who's come to the realization he can make a killing by becoming a superhero. Inverted Luke Cage plays this completely straight; his only concern is making money, and he attempts to sell the Mighty Avengers to the bad guys to this end. The inverted Tony Stark, having regressed back into the greedy hedonist he was before becoming Iron Man, has money and pleasure as his only motivations. He full intends to make Stark-brand, hyper-efficient mutant-killing sentinels to sell to anti-mutant groups, essentially killing hundreds for profit. | |

Happiness in Mind Control | |
AXIS (Comic Book) / int_9b1ed084 | comment |
Happiness in Mind Control: The Axis event "inverts" the morality of several characters, and most of the reverted personalities (Hulk, Iron Man, Sabertooth, Loki, Thor, etc.) all prefer whatever side of the coin they landed on. It's double-subverted for Doctor Doom and Loki, though; although they prefer being good now, they're aware that this is not the way thing should be and that the effects need to be undone. They mourn the fact that when this is done, they'll go back to being their evil selves. | |

Evil Costume Switch | |
AXIS (Comic Book) / int_9cb5e4bb | comment |
Inverted Loki's costume still has the traditional green and gold, but also a lot of white, and switches horns for wings on their helmet/circlet. Maybe it's Evil Costume Switch though, depending on your opinion which one of them is better (or at least less annoying). | |

Heel–Face Brainwashing | |
AXIS (Comic Book) / int_9d90e013 | comment |
Heel–Face Brainwashing: Both inverted (hah!) and played straight, due to the Inversion spell. On the heroes' side: The X-Men — Storm, Havok, Nightcrawler, Sunfire, Shadowcat, Rogue, Colossus and Cyclops — decide that Magneto was right all along and that for mutants to survive, normal humans need to be subjugated or exterminated. To this end, they follow an inverted Genesis, who has become like the original Apocalypse. As for the Avengers, Captain America (Sam Wilson), Scarlet Witch, Luke Cage, and Wasp become totalitarian sociopaths; Thor becomes an Ax-Crazy Blood Knight; and Tony Stark reverts back into the selfish, womanizing, militaristic alcoholic he was before becoming Iron Man. Hulk transforms into the even more monstrous KLUH and sets out to destroy everything in his path. While the 'destroy everything in his path' isn't too different from what the Hulk originally used to do, it's worth noting that Kluh also adds that he specifically plans to kill innocent people by doing so. Even on his worst days, the regular Hulk never, EVER killed anyone innocent on purpose. Heck, he never even killed many of the seemingly countless foes he's gone up against in the decades, not even villains (not most of them, at least) - but after his inversion, there's clearly been a change. As for the villains: All the villains/anti-heroes become straight-up good guys, albeit with some of their bad-guy traits creeping to the surface. Indeed, many of the public aren't sure what to think when the Absorbing Man, Carnage and other supervillains are suddenly saving their lives. Ironically, normally the villains who try to corrupt their children, the Inverted Magneto and Mystique instead embrace Professor X's beliefs and try to talk sense into their wayward offspring. Dr. Doom is probably the most dramatically affected, abdicating his throne to make Latveria a democracy and forming his own team of Avengers from some C-Listers in reserve. Seemingly also as a result of the Inversion, at the end, Magneto completes his Heel-Face Turn, swearing to honor Xavier's vision and work to create mutant/human peace. Tragically, Xavier's spirit has apparently crossed the Despair Event Horizon and become convinced that Magneto's horrible actions before were right all along. | |

Retcon | |
AXIS (Comic Book) / int_b2280b66 | comment |
Retcon: In Issue 7, Scarlet Witch casts a spell to strike down those who share her bloodline. It affects Quicksilver, but does not affect Magneto, giving a retcon that shows herself as not even slightly related to Magneto (and likely, by extension, the same going for Quicksilver). Technically it's a counter-retcon, since the twins being Magneto's children wasn't revealed until the 80's, over 15 years after they were introduced. In AXIS: Carnage #3, the "new" Sin Eater is revealed to be the ghost of Emil Gregg, who's revealed to have been the original Sin Eater in the first place. Too bad Eddie Brock wasn't around to find this out. note On second thought, maybe that's for the best. Finding that out would probably break Eddie after all he's been through because of that whole debacle. | |
