Secret Avengers (2010 series) #32

While battling on the wing of the one plane that escaped from Bagalia, Black Widow is hypnotized by the possessed Hawkeye and comes under the power of the Abyss. She then tries to convince the Cairo airport to let them land, claiming they were damaged in a terrorist attack but Cairo denies them permission to land….

While Venom fights the possessed Valkyrie, Ant-Man (actually the Eric O’Grady LMD) tries to snatch the Crown from Taskmaster but he is caught and blasted by the bad guy. Venom and Val plunge from a window and hit the ground where they are surrounded by possessed villains. As Venom tries to ward off Carrion, Ant-Man is stabbed in the back by Scarecrow. Max Fury comes to Ant-Man’s aid, shooting down Scarecrow and carrying the wounded (LMD) to safety, hoping he will make things all right for Max with Father (of the Descendants) but Ant-Man is then tossed around by Whiplash and Vengeance and thrown out of the window where he lands beside Venom. And the U-Foes and the Wrecking Crew arrive….

Max Fury is locked up. Hawkeye thanks Flash and Eric for saving the day, Hank questions why the Crown didn’t work on Ant-Man, and Black Widow comes forward to tell them that “Eric” is an LMD under the control of the Descendants. No one believes her and she leaves in a huff. Captain Britain tells them that the Descendants are planning something but Hawkeye is too tired to listen. Later, Valkyrie and Flash Thompson have sex while the Ant-Man LMD, now calling himself Black Ant, reports back to Father….
