Fear Itself: The Worthy (MDCU)

In 2011, Marvel's Fear Itself event spun off into this focused one-shot, The Worthy, which introduced eight new villains empowered by the Serpent's hammers. Published as a single issue, it served as a character primer for the event's antagonists, showcasing the creative team's work in expanding the event's scope. Though brief, the issue is notable for establishing the corrupted champions who would clash with Earth's heroes during the storyline.
