Two weeks ago, the year 2020 took another turn for the worst when an alien monster called Doomsday fell to Earth. In a rampage across the east coast the behemoth crippled the Justice League and in a final act of heroism Superman gave his life defeating the creature. For days it seemed like everyone wore an armband commemorating the life of Superman, but when the Justice League failed to stop a techno-virus that enslaved half of Coast City… crime rates across the globe increased. That’s when the “Supermen of America” trend started. To honor Superman and his legacy other heroes adopted his symbol. New heroes emerged and crime was back on the decline once again thanks to Superman and his memory.

Beast Boy, now in his early 20’s, reopened Titans Tower in Jump City for many young heroes as a sort of Outreach:2. Will it be enough? Can the world go on without the Man of Steel?[/b][/i] [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/SbYP7TAm.png[/img][/center] [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/sD8mQkD.png[/img][/center] [h3]Current DCU Landscape:[/h3] * Superman’s enemies are still coming out of the woodwork in Metropolis and ‘Lightning and the Supermen will have their hands full. Notable enemies include: Livewire, Parasite, Metallo, Intergang, Cadmus Labs, Riot, Felix Faust, Silver Banshee, Bloodsport, and two others that will remain under wraps for now. One rhymes with Pex Puthor and the other is almost an identical twin of Marvel’s Cable LOL * Batman is suffering a broken back, and Bane has taken up his own Bat-cowl and taken control of the Gotham underworld. A group of heroes would be ideal in taking him down, but most are scared of Gotham. The streets are patrolled by venom-jacked thugs in Robin colors. * Hank Henshaw [formerly Cyborg Superman] has enslaved half the population of Coast City CA after corrupting and assimilating the technology of Cyborg [Victor Stone] and Green Lantern. Rumors suggest a portion of STAR Labs has several dozen survivors within what the news outlets have dubbed ‘Machine City’. * Beast Boy is in a mentor type of role similar to Black Lightning. Cinderblock, Billy Numerous, Jinx, Brother & Sister Blood, Klarion, and other villains are operating in or around Jump City. * This universe will take bits and pieces from various places including the CW shows, the DC films, the Young Justice animated series, Superman and Batman comics, as well as the DC animated films.
