You'll see the spoilers after the cut...
In this issue we find out just how brutal a father Kang the Conqueror can be for the Apocalypse Twins. He brings him to the AU timeline to witness the negotiations between Steve Rogers aka Colonel America and the Morlock leaders Havok and Rogue.
It's also ere we find out that the Colonel was once upon a time the husband of a murdered Scarlet Witch; a pairing that Remender obviously loves (case in point Uncanny Avengers # 6). Oh and I didn't see that coming, Rogue and Alex Summers are officially married. Who knew right?
The story progresses and Eimin and Uriel Worthington strike at the hapless Colonel America. After a brief fight, Uriel corners Cap and before killing him, Havok steps in and continues the fight. Sadly though, Alex is ripped in half.
When Rogue arrives, its too late. She tries to fight but gets impaled; it's through this connection that she finally shes what's happened to Uriel and his sister Eimin.
To make the story short, Uriel tries to save Rogue, but is blocked by his sister. Kang then orders Eimin to kill Rogue causing a fight between the two. Later they retreat to Kang's trophy room where we see lots of cool stuff...
... including Thor's enchanted hammer, Jarnbjorn which was used to assassinate the Celestial a few issues ago.
Uncanny Avengers # 8AU is written by Rick Remender with art by Adam Kubert
So it's canon that Kang beat the heroes of other worlds other than 616?
