In Avengers – Another Day to Save #1, Earth faces yet another cataclysmic threat—this time from a mysterious cosmic anomaly threatening to unravel time itself. The Avengers must rally as strange distortions bring echoes of past battles and alternate futures crashing into the present.

Can Earth’s Mightiest Heroes fix reality before it fractures for good?
🧩 Notable Arcs or Storylines

🧠 Fan Theories or Interpretations
Some fans interpret the “anomaly” in the comic as a metaphorical representation of the Avengers’ internal conflicts—particularly the residual tension between Tony Stark and Steve Rogers post-Civil War. Others theorize the time distortions are subtle nods to Marvel’s multiverse expansion leading into future events like Secret Empire or Avengers: No Surrender.
