Re: The Supervillainy Saga thread
Gosh darn it. I thought I'd been clever once coming up with "the Unsettling Omens" as an Uncanny X-Men pastiche. Interesting to see how Supervillainy just keeps dragging people in, no matter how hard they try to quit. But if all your peers and formative experiences involve laser apes and ...

Re: The Supervillainy Saga thread
John was one of the trillions of Monochromes created by the Ultranians and infused with the Ultra-Force to go forth into reality to bring order from chaos, no matter what the cost. "Monochromes" as a name here is just like next-level in terms of how many layers it works on, visually, as a...
