The alien shapeshifters called the Chitauri were defeated by the Ultimates in a decisive battle, but suspicious activity leads the Ultimates to believe that not all of the aliens were destroyed in that cataclysmic attack. Stark Industries has developed means of quickly and easily detecting Chitauri DNA, but the federal government refuses to adopt the technology, claiming that if the tech is widely available, the Chitauri will find a way to fool it. Frustrated by the government's seeming unwillingness to protect its own people, Captain America takes matters into his own hands, leaking the technology so that it can be manufactured and distributed throughout the country. His radical actions sow discord among the Ultimates and, within the highest levels of government, raise a troubling question: Could disunity and chaos be playing right into the Chitauri's hands? Meanwhile, Hank Pym, who desperately wants back on the Ultimates team, has been feverishly experimenting with his ants in the hopes of finding his own alternate method of detecting the Chitauri. When he appears to be successful, it could spell doom for the alien menace—but only if the Ultimates can finally set aside their differences long enough to recognize their true enemy.

      Thor, Hulk, Iron Man, Captain America, Hawkeye, and the other Avengers reprise their blockbuster movie as they once again battle the alien Chitauri, who are launching a guerrilla attack on Earth. GraphicAudio lives up to its rep with this "movie in your mind" as the Avengers, here called "The Ultimates," battle the shape-shifting aliens. The actors give distinctive voices to each character, making them sound similar to the original movie actors--right down to a Robert Downey, Jr., soundalike. The only downside is the voices of the aliens, an annoying mix of several voices that is hard to understand. Otherwise, the dialogue is natural and well suited to the characters, and the sound effects of booms, crashes, and bangs are jarringly real. M.S. © AudioFile 2014, Portland, Maine
