Using the Immortus Engine, they can operate in the past, present, and future. Tony plans on starting a resistance network against the Council by trying to recreate Earth-616's heroes. After calculations in modifying the Engine, Doom states they could build their resistance movement six months in the past and have their army overnight in the future. During their work, Iron Lad oversees Captain America's awakening from his coma and explains about the changed political status quo, while Thor still heals from his wounds. A week later, Rogers advises Stark and Doom that they need to start a revolution on the ground. Iron Lad then tries sending "origin-machines" back in time. Only a few take them as some of them are either intercepted or have declined. Tony states that they'll have to do it another way. They start by recruiting exterminators <a href="/wiki/Hank_Pym#Ultimate_Universe" title="Hank Pym">Hank Pym</a> and <a href="/wiki/Wasp_(character)#Ultimate_Universe" title="Wasp (character)">Janet van Dyne</a>.

Iron Lad identifies it as his father's first armor, which Midas says was gained when the <a href="/wiki/Stark_Industries#Ultimate_Universe" title="Stark Industries">Stark/Stane</a>' assets were up for grabs. Midas tries to make a deal with the team as Rogers state their intentions are to save America. Midas states that his vision of America is wider as he considers commerce is what truly represents the nation itself. They fight until Iron Lad blows a hole to the basement. They find a woman trapped in a machine that is feeding off of her cosmic radiation. Midas claims she fell from the future and that her energy is highly valuable. With Giant-Man and Wasp unconscious and Iron Lad's armor in power saving mode, Captain America fights against a ranting and rambling Midas. Wasp regains consciousness and takes the opportunity to shoot the machine, freeing the woman as Rogers gives Midas a neck injury. Midas claims that if they take her, part of the American electrical grid will fail. In a flashback during July 1st, Steve learns from Tony that he has been through the entire holographic program, learning the history of decades in a few days.

Iron Lad states that they didn't come to fight and just wanted to talk. Lejori then calms down the gamma-irradiated humanoid as it regresses to a human baby as she talks about how Bruce Banner left her fellow islanders to live in the fallout after the "Banner-<a href="/wiki/Stainslaw_Ulam" class="mw-redirect" title="Stainslaw Ulam">Ulam</a> Gamma Bomb" was tested nearby. When Tony asks if there are others like her, Lejori takes them to her village and shows off the mutated islanders who aren't like her. She asks Iron Lad to fix their island before she can fully join the fight against Banner and the Council.

At Roxxon Refinery 15, Hawkeye is confronted by Captain America who identifies them as a Native American named Charli Ramsey. Hawkeye goes on the attack using different arrows on Rogers while claiming that Roxxon does whatever they want and anyone who stands up to them gets arrested. During the fight, armed soldiers arrive, which Hawkeye states are part of Roxxon's "Cleanup Crew", a team of mercenaries who secure mining operations and that put down the "Savage Land Revolt" in the 70s.

She-Hulk then attacks Hulk for what he did to her island as he uses his Iron Fist move on her. Meanwhile, Doom is told by the Triskelion's A.I. that it has lost contact with everyone.

In Guatemala, America Chavez protects a pro-democracy demonstration by melting the police officers' armors. Thor and Sif are at Yggdrasil where Sif mentions that she told Doom that they could sow chaos in the Nine Realms, spread discontent, raise an army, and give All-Father Loki a taste of his medicine. Considering a Asgardian Rebellion, Sif asks Thor where they should start. On the Triskelion, Doom convinces She-Hulk to lay low to protect both her people and the Ultimates, stating he can tap into Hulk's surveillance system to keep an eye on her village.

They brought up events she helped in like defeating the Ultron Division, fighting the 24th Celestial Host when it judged the Milky Way as unworthy, and turning the <a href="/wiki/Negative_Zone" title="Negative Zone">Negative Zone</a> into the Positive Zone. The alien introduces herself as the Guardians of the Galaxy from the 61th Century.

Cosmo detects that America's mind was cut open many times enough that her "past is amputated". As Cosmo shows the Ultimates the day when they fell, Star-Lord speaks to Doom's robot noting that he is not the Doom they are familiar with and that he will be responsible for the loss of a trillion lives. Captain Marvel then shares her memories with America where they used to be lovers in the 61st Century where it is in a post-imperialistic time. Though there are 250,000 Guardians protecting a lot of planets, one group of them fell victim to the Unmaker.

A lot of people died upon impact where Captain Marvel landed in the Stone Age which took her awhile to build a time ship to locate her teammates. After that story, Captain Marvel figured that America landing in this time period broke the Unmaker's barrier as she plans to find a way to break the barrier and undo the Unmaker's work and save everyone. As America still doesn't have her own memories and claims that Maker will be out of The City in 10 months, Captain Marvel states that the Ultimates will still lose against Maker. Before the Guardians of the Galaxy leave, Captain Marvel gives America temporal flare that will signal them.
