Dark Dimension Chapter 4: The Red Room
The Story
The Secret War is over! There is only the Dark Dimension! In this new, narrative based version of Secret Wars, players will follow Nick Fury and Doctor Strange, or Red Skull and Dormammu, as they traverse the desolate Dark Dimension in hopes of changing reality to either save, or enslave, the Marvel Universe.
Chapter 4: The Red Room, reveals that S.H.I.E.L.D. has claimed the third shard of the Tesseract! This has been reflected in the progress bar on the Dark Dimension Homepage:
Fury and Skull now find themselves in the midst of Season 5 of the original Secret Wars, and for the True Believers out there with a keen memory, you know that means Black Widow vs. Taskmaster! Now, Marvel Studio’s Black Widow was supposed to come out last May (thanks a lot, COVID) so that’s why I themed Secret Wars Season 5 around it. The movie was then supposed to come out this May (yesterday, actually) but it got pushed again to July 9. But no reason we can’t have more Black Widow movie-inspired content now! Consider it my gift to you!

Secret Wars Season 5: Black Widow
Season 5 of Secret Wars is here! And this time around, the theme is Black Widow! The movie may have been pushed to November 6, but you can get your Black Widow fill here in Secret Wars! We’ve got a couple of new features and announcements!
Solo Missions
This season introduces Solo Missions! Based on Marvel’s Black Widow, you can now play one of two Solo Missions depending on your faction:
S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents can now access Taskmaster’s Siege! Taskmaster has planted bombs on the Helicarrier, and it’s up to you to find and disarm them!
HYDRA Agents have access to Black Widow’s Revenge! Before his siege on the Helicarrier, you must aid Taskmaster in downloading training footage of Black Widow and memorizing her moves to take her down!
Completing Solo Missions will help to bolster your team’s Assist in the VS Mode!
Assists
In addition to the Solo Missions, two new Hero and Villain Assists have been assigned for the month: Black Widow and Taskmaster! They will be crucial in aiding in the VS Mode, which could turn the tide of the Secret War!
That’s a whole heap of super-spy action! If you’ve never played Secret Wars before now, this is the time to jump in! Click Here to learn how to play if you don’t already know. That’s it for now, Face Front True Believers, and I’ll see you in the Secret Wars!

Black Widow Teaser
So the new Black Widow teaser trailer dropped! To commemorate this moment, I dug my Red Guardian figure out of the pile of Marvel Legends he was sitting in, a figure I only bought for the Giant-Man Build-A-Figure, and took this picture!
I posted it on my Marvel Legends action figure group, but all anyone could talk about was Taskmaster’s suit missing the mark! Not one comment on how awesome my picture was! So I gave in and made this:
Anyways, here’s the trailer, in case you’ve been living under a rock! The long and short of it: Looks awesome, love Widow’s new suit(s), Yelena had better steal the show, the Red Guardian suit looks legit, and I hope Taskmaster’s powers are represented well.

Welcome to Marvel City
Hasbro, eat your heart out! Welcome to the future! Welcome, to Marvel City! I had time, I was bored, so why not?
Looks like All-New, All-Different Spider-Man has a bird’s eye of the entire scene below!
A city of heroes…
Bound by honor…
To protect it at all costs!
Captain America, Sentinel of Liberty and the First Avenger, never relents in the fight against the forces of HYDRA!
Black Bolt has something to say, and when he talks, people listen!
Wasp patrols the skies, while Thor summons strength from Odin in Asgard above! And Star-Lord’s always ready for action! But where’d his tunes go?
Of course, no one stands a chance when Iron Man and War Machine team up to take down the bad guys!
Lifelong friends Spider-Woman and Captain Marvel are two women you DO NOT want to mess with! Unless you want a venom blast and a cosmic punch to the face! And is that Vision phasing through the ground behind them?
Speaking of Venom, what rock did this Sinister Symbiote crawl from under?
Falcon soars high, but a particularly sneaky Black Cat gets away with some pilfered goods! Oh Felicia, will you ever learn?
By the Ruby Rings of the Crimson Bands of the Hoary Hosts… Whatever! Doctor Strange is here to make with the hocus pocus!
Black Widow gives Hawkeye a lift on her sweet ride, they always worked better as a team! Let’s just hope that Ms. Marvel can stop fangirling long enough to Embiggen!
‘Ol J. Jonah Jameson isn’t too happy with all these superheroes tearing things up outside of Bugle offices! It doesn’t help that Giant-Man is mocking him either…
There are tales… legends of a Spirit of Vengeance… The Ghost Rider, making the best of a deal with the devil!
What did Deadpool get himself into this time? Maybe a certain Infinity Gauntlet-wielding Mad Titan wasn’t too fond of Lady Death’s fascination with this clown…
Looks like the newest Spider-Man on the block, Miles Morales, snagged a classic Spidey baddy, the Shocker! Great job Miles!
Meanwhile, the Immortal Iron Fist has engaged the terrible Taskmaster in combat! Don’t use your best moves Danny, you know he can copy them!
Storm and Silk watch over the city, a valiant long-time member of the X-Men, and a Spider trying to find her place in the world after 10 years away…
Bravery is not measured in size, and Rocket and Baby Groot prove that throwing down with one of the biggest Marvel villains out there, the Rhino!
But there are always bigger Marvel villains, lurking in the distance…
But here to protect his city is none other than Daredevil! Keeping a watchful… ear, from above! And Spider-Gwen aka Ghost Spider doesn’t look stressed, she’s listening to the latest hit from her band the Mary Janes! Wait… there’s Star-Lord’s tunes! Dang it Gwen!
But down below, titans clash, as Hulk pins down one of his worst foes, the Abomination!
This Marvel power couple knows no bounds, Cyclops and Phoenix are always here to save the day, and mutant-kind!
And bow down (wait, they don’t do that there…) for the King of Wakanda, Black Panther! With Okoye by his side, nothing’s getting past him! Wakanda forever!
So there you have it. Heroes…
That swore to fight.
To stand for justice.
To Assemble. In our darkest hours.
And to let us know, that they will always be here.
