The issue opens with Henry Pym walking through the remains of a recruit at ant size, thinking back to the development of the 50 State Initiative and recent training events (including hiring the Taskmaster, capturing Dragon Man, and observing an argument between MVP and Henry Peter Gyrich.) One of his flashbacks is to a conversation in which it is suggested that they continue cloning MVP and use his clones to populate all teams on the 50 State Initiative. The issue returns to Henry Pym's present, in which a new clone of MVP seems quite upset, and is pointing an energy weapon of some sort at Pym.
