Age of Heroes Arc

The Age of Heroes Arc was the fourth Arc of Bronze Mettle. Slightly unusually, the "Bonus" half of the Arc came first, and told another almost completely coherent story. The recurring plot of the Bonus chapters involved SI discovering the true nature of her power as the Avatar, while the main Arc chapters involved the early creation of the Avengers. This was also the first Arc to feature an Elseworlds chapter.
