   Summary

   A year passes before Steve and his Sidekicks are finally allowed back into the compound. Everyone—except James—seems to believe things will go back to normal.

   Too bad the New Avengers couldn’t care less about what Steve and his friends think. They make damn sure Rogers and his pathetic band of sidekicks stay the hell away from their favorite Inventor.
