If you remember, at the end of last issue, Doom was getting ready to use his time platform, when Iron Man and Sentry jumped on him. Some how it messed up the controls and they ended up . . supposedly . . in the past. To me, it looks more like one of the stories that the Sentry drew in his civilian identity, when he did the comics to cope with the stress of having the Void inside of him. But, they explain it as being in the past. So we'll just take it at that for now. Anyways, Tony and Doom are blasting away at each other when they both realize that there's no wi-fi, blue-tooth, or any other kind of satellite or radar transmission going through the air for their suits to utilize. That's their first clue that they're in the past. The second comes when the Sentry tells them that he's seen an earlier version of himself fighting the Void. They decide to put their differences aside and work on getting back to their right time before they do anything which may affect the time-continuum. To do so they decide to go to the Baxter Building and use Reed's time-platform. There they encounter Ben, but their theory is, in the past, everybody forgot about Bob, which is after the time that they are in. So, whatever they do will soon be forgotten. Meaning, that they won't change anything. They accomplish their mission, returning shortly after they left, but Doom has disappeared and Carol is warning them that they have to leave. Then there's a huge explosion that comes from the Latverian castle. I'm glad that Mark Bagley is on board now so we can get this book back on track. I thought he did a wonderful job with the pencils this issue. Brian Bendis also, as usual, did a fantastic job with the story. My only complaint is all this inner dialogue that everyone seems to be having. A little bit is ok, but generally there's so much that it's distracting. But that's just my opinion. Overall, I thought it was a great book.
