Original Sins # 1 (June 11, 2014) is an anthology tie-in comic to the main Original Sin event, where the detonation of the Watcher's eye unleashes the Marvel Universe's deepest secrets, and this issue explores the fallout for various individual characters. The issue includes multiple short stories that reveal hidden truths for characters like the Young Avengers, Deathlok, and Lockjaw. 

Unlike the main event series, which focuses on the murder mystery investigation, Original Sins is an anthology miniseries (collecting issues #1-5 and an Annual) that shows the personal impact of the Watcher's secrets being exposed across the universe. 

  • "Young Avengers" Feature: The main story, written by Ryan North, focuses on Hulkling and Prodigy as they team up with Noh-Varr (Marvel Boy) to deal with the Hood, all while grappling with the Watcher's eyes revealing their personal secrets and a shifting balance of power.
  • "Deathlok" Feature: A new version of the cyborg assassin Henry Hayes is introduced. He is a family man who does not know he is a cybernetic assassin until the Watcher's eye reveals his true, brutal purpose. A stranger with new knowledge of Hayes' identity confronts him, leading to a violent encounter.
  • "Lockjaw" Feature: A more lighthearted backup story written by Stuart Moore and drawn by Rick Geary, which uses the Watcher's eye plot device to humorously show Lockjaw being reunited with a long-buried possession. 

The anthology format features a diverse creative lineup across its stories: 

  • Writers: Nathan Edmondson, Ryan North, and Stuart Moore
  • Artists: Mike Perkins, Ramon Villalobos, and Rick Geary
  • Cover Artist: Mark Brooks
