Styf Aliens: |
lt. General Miller |
An US Army base containing a US Navy ULF facility on site
suddenly went dark, literally. It was
surrounded by a black dome. No communications came from it and an Army
Ranger unit entered it…and did not return.
The team entered the dome and discovered it had been taken over by
Styf aliens who had been trapped in another dimension. The aliens attempted to use the ULF array
to destroy the Earth in revenge, but the Vindicators managed to stop
them. Only one alien, the insane Mo,
survived, and Paragon was blinded. |

Lord Dread's Endgame |
Vortex |
Lord Dread |
Kinkaid |
Lord Dread destroyed the Starscraper with a nuclear device,
slaying, among others, The Cavalier, Lionheart, Mustapha, Havok,
Cyndane. He then hacked the planet to
gloat about it, placing a bounty upon all the world's heroes. The Sisterhood attacked The Vindicators
while Vortex rode the Inigo Montoya throught a harsh re-entry with The
Adjudicator's mechanic Red and Gillian Grimes to crash near Washington DC. Vortex fought assassins sent to kill his
ex-wife and was aided by Spectra, while The Vindicators defeated The
Sisterhood. Meanwhile, International
Solutions assaulted the Neo Phyters in Vancouver and the Hustlers attacked
Pure Power's Plant, slaughtering numerous students. Wolf and Valiant as well as The Reapers
came to the unexpected aid of the 'Phyters, between the three different groups
International Solutions was defeated.
Junal was critically wounded and was spirited away by Annette. In the attack Yvette Horizon was slain
during an act of immense heroism. Wolf
and Valiant along with 'Phyters Redcap and Transporter headed to Motor City
with Annette's help, while Vortex was also retrieved by the sorceress. It was then that Grimoire and Battle Maiden
appeared. They had been trapped by
Annette in a pocket dimension and upon discovering what had happened they had
accused Annette of knowing the Starscraper's imminent destruction. And Annette confessed. She knew it was going to happen and she
allowed it to come to pass to insure a potential dark futured ruled by the
likes of an evil Lionheart, Kinkaid and Havok would not come to pass. She departed, defiant. The group headed to a facility called
Endeavor Inc. where the Neo Phyter's old alien shuttle was stored. A plan was formed in the face of a
deadline; in twenty four hours the Royal Navy Submarine Vengeance would nuke
Corsica in a bid to kill Dread, killing hundreds of thousands. The team would engage in a two pronged
assault upon Dread; a shuttle team carrying an EMP device would attack from
the front, Battle Maiden's team would 'port from the rear. Both teams met resistance from Dread's minions,
the Hand of Dread. Battered, both
teams triumphed and rejoined to face off against the villain while Knack flew
into space to stop Dread's final endgame, using a United States weapon
satellite to destroy Disneyworld.
Knack succeeded and apparently died heroically while the others fought
Dread. Dread was slain when a wounded
Trickshot, enraged at the death of his friend, smashed his magic bow into
Dread's helmeted skull. |
