Captain America, a proud member of the Avengers, is still trying to find his way in a strange new world when he discovers his connection to a mysterious man named Korvac, who claims to be similarly displaced in time.

In the Time Traveller's miraculous new machine, we will be carried from a Victorian dinner table to 802,701 AD, when the Earth is divided between the gentle, ineffective Eloi, and the ape-like Morlocks; forward again by a million years or so to glimpse a dying world of blood-red beaches and menacing shapes; and on again to the last days of our planet, a remote twilight where nothing moves but darkness and a cold wind.
