Blurb: 
The Destiny War was ignited when Immortus sent his servant Tempus to kill an apparently critically ill Rick Jones on the moon, knowing that it was the Destiny Force about to manifest within Rick for the second time (after the first time during the Kree-Skrull War) that was killing him. Kang intervened, and the Kree Supreme Intelligence, who Rick had been brought to for examination, triggered Rick to use the Destiny Force to call a team of Avengers to him, plucked from time, causing Immortus" forces to withdraw, having failed to prevent what they had come to do. The team gathered consisted of various members taken from different eras. Captain America was plucked from just after his 1974 adventure (Captain America #176) where he discovered that the leader of the Secret Empire was a high ranking government official. Yellowjacket was taken the early 1970s when his alter ego, Hank Pym, was mentally unbalanced. Giant-Man (also Hank Pym, but more adjusted) and the Wasp were both plucked from what was then the present - 1998 Marvel continuity. Hawkeye was taken from circa Avengers #100 continuity and Songbird and Captain Marvel were taken from an apparently alternative future. At the conclusion, Rick and this team of Avengers fought by the side of Libra, Kang and the Supreme Intelligence against Immortus and the Time Keepers. The Time Keepers killed Immortus for his failures, and attempted to accelerate Kang into Immortus; however, Kang persevered and defeated the Time Keepers. Rick burnt himself out stopping their plan, and Kang proceeded to kill the Time Keepers. Immortus then split off from Kang, meaning Kang would never become Immortus. Rick was then merged with Genis-Vell, the third Captain Marvel, to save his life, and he and all the Avengers were returned to their original time periods with varying degrees of memory as to what they had been involved in.
