Notes:
This issue was released in a sealed polybag that came with a free decoder (S.H.I.E.L.D. Encryptor Card). Each of the four issues in this series has a hidden message somewhere in the story that can only be seen using this decoder.
The hidden message in this issue reads: "In the not so distant future someone will kill Nick Fury".
Once all four hidden messages had been decoded, you could enter the 30th Anniversay S.H.I.E.L.D. Encryption Contest, with prizes including original art and comics signed by the creative team.
