Former Avenger Returns from the Dead to Hunt Thor’s Baby Sister – Journey into Mystery

A very dead Avenger and fan favorite character is seemingly brought back to death in the pages of War of the Realms: Journey into Mystery # 1 by the McElroys.

Who is this mystery Avenger that returns to life?

Spoilers ahead, so if you don’t want spoilers, turn back.

So in this issue, we start with Balder and his unlikely collection of heroes running away from a very menacing truck who has been shooting fiery projectiles their way.

It’s really a cute moment as readers try to find out who is in this book and who are the characters involved and how they are connected to one another.

The team convinces Simon Williams aka Wonder Man to go non-pacifist on the highway to save their asses. He does thay and we then get the reveal on who has been chasing them.

Ares is back to some extent in the Marvel U here in Journey into Mystery # 1.

The dude died at the hands of his “teammate” The Sentry during Norman Osborn’s Siege on Asgard in Broxton.

Also Wonder Man has some history with Ares as they were teammates in Iron Man’s Initiative sponsored Mighty Avengers team prior to Secret Invasion. So he knows Ares is a badass.
