| main_char_team = [[Thor (Marvel Comics)|Thor]]<br>[[Avengers (comics)|Avengers]]<br>[[Malekith the Accursed]]

In [[Asgard (comics)|Asgard]], [[Odin (comics)|Odin]] is in his throne room pondering how he could defeat [[Malekith the Accursed]]. The Bifrost Bridge was destroyed during a battle against [[Mangog]], with Asgards in shambles. Suddenly, Odin is targeted by Malekith's assassins and Malekith's assassins revealed that they have created a Dark Bifrost Bridge, one that will allow them to teleport to any of the nine realms. On [[Earth]] in Newark Harbor, [[Thor (Marvel Comics)|Thor]] and his [[hellhound]] Thori are relaxing when something crashes in front of them. It turns out to be [[Loki (comics)|Loki]]. He is shown to be stabbed in multiple places and tells Thor that Malekith was the one who hurt him. Although Thor doesn't trust Loki, he promises to send Loki first aid if he teleports Thor to where Malekith is. Malekith's assassins fail to kill Thor and Loki transport Thor to [[Jotunheim]]. However, Thori smells Loki and fails to warn Thor that something's wrong. It's revealed that Loki was actually Malekith in disguise. Malekith transported Thor into a place where [[Giants (Marvel Comics)|Frost Giants]] were at and they proceed to kill Thor. With Thor seemingly out of the way, Malekith plans to wage war on Earth/Midgard. In [[The Bronx|Bronx]], [[New York City|New York]], [[Spider-Man]] is out swinging when his spider sense tingles and he sees Thor's mother [[Frigga (comics)|Frigga]] fight against Malekith's assassins. Spider Man helps defeat most of Malekith's assassins, while Frigga is slightly annoyed by Spider-Man's talking. [[Sif (comics)|Lady Sif]] and her Valkyries meet up with Frigga as most of the Asgardians live on Earth as refugees). Valkyrie sends out a signal to all of Earth's heroes that Malekith is coming, including [[Doctor Strange]], [[Wolverine (character)|Wolverine]], [[Daredevil (Marvel Comics character)|Daredevil]], [[Punisher]], [[Blade (comics)|Blade]], [[Ghost Rider (Robbie Reyes)|Ghost Rider]], and the [[Avengers (comics)|Avengers]]. During the battle in New York, Malekith arrives with his crew (consisting of [[Enchantress (Marvel Comics)|Enchantress]], [[Kurse]], [[Ulik]], [[Minotaur (comics)|Minotaur]] A.K.A Dario Agger, and a Svartalheim Bog [[Tiger]]). Suddenly, Laufey appears and is about to eat Frigga when the real Loki arrives and saves his adopted mother and tries fighting against Malekith. Doctor Strange teleports Malekith away and Laufey berates Loki on his recent treachery in the past. Laufey sees Loki, picks him up, and seemingly eats him. It is revealed that Thor is still alive and is still fighting against the Frost Giants.<ref>''War of the Realms'' #1. Marvel Comics.</ref>

During the evacuation where New York civilians go into the Strange Sanctum, [[Jane Foster (comics)|Jane Foster]] stands outside leading people in. During the chaos, Wolverine saves Punisher from a sneak attack. Captain America states that there are too many of them while Dario Agger/Minotaur watches the chaos unfold. Dr. Strange tries to do magic, but he is running some interference. It is revealed that Malekith hired a coven of war witches which prevents Dr. Strange from using his full power. Things are looking bad as Freyja is struggling against the Queen of Angels, Spider Man is busy fighting against Sindr, the Queen of Muspelheim, Kurse and Enchantress are beating [[She-Hulk|She Hulk]] and Ghost Rider respectively. Jane Foster slams an Asgardian boat to Enchantress, when Odin and his Asgardian Army arrive. [[Brunnhilda (comics)|Brunnhilde,]] a [[Valkyrie (Marvel Comics)|Valkyrie]], gives Jane a ride to the War Witches where she beheads them when they were torturing Blade. Odin is enraged when he finds out that Laufey ate Loki. Doctor Strange uses all of his power to transport the remaining heroes to Avengers Mountain in the North Pole, where he faints from exhaustion. Ghost Rider and Lady Sif takes Odin to rest while Captain America orders Carol Danvers to get as many heroes as she needs to defend Earth. Freyja appoints Jane Foster as the All Mother of Asgard, but Jane Foster is saddened at the destruction of Earth. Back on Earth, Brunnhilde is the last person fighting against the Dark Elves before she is decapitated by Malekith, leaving Jane Foster to carry on the legacy of the Valkyrie.

While resting their injuries, Freyja asks Captain America to assemble a group to help get Thor back. Meanwhile, Daredevil takes [[Heimdall (comics)|Heimdall's]] sword which helps fix the Bifrost Bridge (while also transforming Daredevil to become The God Without Fear). The restoration of the Bifrost Bridge allows the group to split into four groups: Captain America and his team (Spider Man, Wolverine, [[Iron Fist (comics)|Iron Fist]] and [[Luke Cage]]) will go to Jotunheim to rescue Thor, Freyja and her group (Blade, She-Hulk, Ghost Rider, and Punisher) will go to Svartalfheim (Home of the Dark Elves) to destroy the Dark Bifrost Bridge, [[Carol Danvers|Captain Marvel]] will go to Earth to deal with Malekith while recruiting her War Avengers, while Jane Foster will remain with Heimdall, Daredevil, and the Destroyer to defend the Bifrost Bridge. As Captain America's group is journeying through Jotunheim they are ambushed by Frost Giants. In Svartalfheim, Freya's group is met with Dark Elves and Punisher opens fire on them. On Earth, Malekith lays destruction over Europe and plans to slay a hero when Captain Marvel arrives with her War Avengers ([[Deadpool]], [[Eddie Brock|Venom]], [[Weapon H]], [[Winter Soldier (comics)|Winter Soldier]], [[Captain Britain]] and [[Sif (comics)|Lady Sif]]) to fight against Malekith. The Dark Elves launch a sneak attack on Jane Foster's group while [[Iron Man|Tony Stark]] and [[Shuri (comics)|Shuri]] help the dwarves create new weapons and [[Black Panther (comics)|Black Panther]] prepares for a Frost Giant attack on the Avenger Mountain. Roz Solomon, an Agent of Wakanda reports that [[Roxxon Energy Corporation|Roxxon]] has taken over Antartica while [[Namor]] fights off the Dark Elves in the ocean and the [[Fantastic Four]] defend Manhattan. During the chaos Daredevil grows disoriented which causes the Dark Elves to destroy the Bifrost Bridge. Freyja's group arrives at the Dark Bifrost Bridge, but Freyja realized that the Bifrost Bridge has been destroyed, and changes plans in protecting the Dark Bifrost. Captain America's group finds Thor, but realizes that Thor is in his beserker rage after destroying many Frost Giants.
