MTV: 2012-02-23 - Avengers Clean Up Crime Overspill

The Avengers cleaned up an attack by the Brotherhood of Mutants at the Ajax Chemical Plant in upstate New York earlier this evening. The Brotherhood of Mutants assaulted the plant and took the workers there hostage, planting a massive amount of bombs around the facility, threatening to detonate the bombs and wreak environmental devastation and execute the hostages unless the Avengers arrived and surrendered to them. Luckily, the Avengers were able to fight off the Brotherhood and capture them, and disarm the bombs and rescue the hostages. The area has been sealed off and a containment crew has stated ‘there are no signs of ecological contamination’.

Senator Robert Kelly, of the Friends of Humanity, had this to say in an early morning press conference, “… Without a doubt there would have been an environmental catastrophe if they had not defeated the monstrous Mutant Terrorists. Without a doubt, why do we tolerate groups like the Brotherhood, and their members who commit acts of terror that could have lead to the deaths of thousands for no other justification than their pathetic and horrendously false believe themselves the next step in evolution.”  Senator Kelly’s press conference continued on with his proposed program for mutant containment.
