Synopsis for "The Old Order Changeth!"

The battle from the previous issue continues, but the Avengers are powerless as there are too many civilians in danger close-by. Thor creates a dimensional space warp which captures the Melter and the Black Knight. The Executioner and the Enchantress manage to escape as being Asgardians themselves knew what Thor was attempting. The Melter and Black Knight are easily captured in the other dimension.

Meanwhile Captain America, and Rick Jones bury Zemo and escapes his troops. Thor leaves the Avengers. Hawkeye applies for membership. Iron Man asks the Sub-Mariner to join but he refuses. The Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver also join the Avengers. Captain America and Rick Jones return to hear that Iron Man, Giant-Man and the Wasp also decide to take a leave of absence. The Avengers team becomes Captain America, Hawkeye, Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch.

Notes

This issue starts as a direct continuation with last issue, with most of the Avengers battling the rest of the Masters of Evil in New York, and Cap and Rick Jones making their escape from the South American rain forest.
After his defeat at the hands of the Avengers, the Melter, and Black Knight are next seen in Fantastic Four Annual 3 where they are manipulated by Doctor Doom into crashing the wedding of Reed Richards and the Susan Storm.
After the Masters of Evil's defeat, Thor, Enchantress, and The Executioner all return to Asgard where they take part in the "Trial of the Gods" that begins in Journey Into Mystery 116.
All the founding members of the Avengers (Thor, Giant Man, Wasp and Iron Man) take a leave of absence in this issue.
Iron Man would appear next in Tales of Suspense 65 where he battles Weasel Wills who steals a copy of his original armor.
Giant Man and Wasp will appear next in Tales to Astonish 67 where they battle the Hidden Man.
