5 months ago...

"What is going here?!?" exclaimed Norman as he and his entourage entered a sub-basement (a very well hidden and well secured sub-basement) of Norman industries to find...Luthor pawing through his battlesuits and muttering something about inferior designs! He had copied them from Tony Stark himself! Did he really think himself above Earth's single greatest weapon manufacturer and innovator (and by extention, Norman himself?) Preposterous!


"I'm just clearing out some of this old "junk" you left behind, Osborn." said Luthor, causually tossing an Iron Patriot gauntlet on the floor. "I'll need the room-and the material- for what I have planned."

"Which is...what? Exactly?" Norman could barely keep his rage in check. He was starting to see green, a very bad sign.


"Oh, don't worry. I'll share it with your little Cabal when the time is right, as it involves them as well." smirked Luthor. "You see, I copped these plans from a...well, he might call himself an equal of mine, but he really just someone who doesn't know who he/she/it really is. And when you lack focus, or vision, you are bound to lose."

"What does this have to do...?" began Norman.

Luthor waved him quiet with his hand. "His design was perfect, but he betrayed his allies. Something that I won't do, once I let you in and know I can trust you. Can I trust you, Osborn?"

"Why...wouldn't you think that you couldn't?" asked Norman. And he thought Doom arrogant!

"Because this conversion is taking place here, and not at the bottom of Lexcorp. I left you much to work with, yet here you are. Why?" He turned to finally face Norman. "Again I ask, don't you trust me?"

"I...just like my own equipment, is all." said Norman, putting his chest out a little.

"These tinker toys? Please. You've been over there a month. Toyman builds better toy soldiers. Your Stark is good, but he has never had to deal with the likes of Superman, of Captain Marvel, of Wonder Woman before. Sure, he has designs for a Hulkbuster, a Thorbuster, but those are for one-on-one fights. He never had to deal with say, 3 of those level threats at the same time. My battlesuit can stand up to that, at least for awhile, and has their weaknesses programmed in. But you knew that already, didn't you?" Luthor had made back to front, now joined by some of his associates. "So, why are you here? I think, it was to plant bugs of some sort, and to take your stuff, simply because it was...your stuff."

"I...fine. These things are important to me, and I wanted to see how you were approprating my resources. I see that they are in good hands so if you just hand over a couple of spare suits I'll be on my way." said Norman.

"But of course. said Luthor, walking over to join his allies. "I certainly won't miss one or two of these...whatever they are lying around. Will you be wanting......this as well? I found it in your office." Luthor asked with a terrible grin on his face.


"GIVE. THAT. BACK!" yelled Norman lunging like a bull toward a red (in this case, green) flag. "IT'S MINE!"


"Here we go." muttered Moonstone.

Init is a (4,4) 8


Normie's crazy roll comes up 4, so he gets a Sanity token this game.

What is the Dark avengers ATA anyway, and where can I find all of the new ATAs?

Best place to find the ATAs is in the Players' Guide - that reminds me that I gotta put that in my dial post. Dark Avengers ATA is a 4 pointer that says that if my Dark Avenger damages you, your Def is -1 til the end of the turn (max modifier of -1)

Cool, thanks. So basically it's like Runaways but worse.

Init roll is a 2,1 so you set up first!

its further worse, because runaways says "damage", dark avengers says "dmg with an attack". so nico can poison someone to activate runaways, but the DA have to hit with an attack.

Bump - your first move DC!

Okay! Set-up is comin' right up!

Norman Osborn smoothed the lapels of his exquisitely tailored suit and took a deep breath. "Alright! Let's sort this out - the PR will be incredible. 'Avengers and H.A.M.M.E.R. capture interdimensional interlopers.' It will play nicely with the fresh memories of the Skrull attack."

Moonstone stared at Norman for just a moment. "You seem to have made a sudden about-face in your mood."

"Of course, my dear. There are plenty of armor components around this facility, and I should be able to put together a functional battlesuit in short order. Despite what that bald buffon Luthor might think, I will show him that my improvisational genius is more than sufficient to take out his entire 'Legion.'"

Daken popped his knuckles and spat. "How many of 'em am I 'allowed' to kill?"

A tiny smile appeared on Norman Osborn's face. "Officially, we do not have a sanction for lethal force, but if the one in the wetsuit were to inadvertently be gutted during the engagement, it would be an understandable part of our efforts to repulse the enemy."

Agents Coleman and Pressler exchanged a a knowing look. Each of them had been drummed out of S.H.I.E.L.D. for asking just those sorts of questions. This new director was just what they needed.

"Luthor, what have you gotten us into?" Sinestro's eyes narrowed as the yellow ring began to glow. "Is this a double cross?"

Luthor ignored Sinestro "Have you disabled the relay systems to Osborne's filtration systems Brainiac?"

"Yes, by my calculations the harmful gas should be permeating through the system. My motor functions are still online - if you were worried."

"What?" Sinestro turned around to face Luthor, "You'll kill us all!"

"Yeah, what about us?" Manta's robotic voice quivered a bit.

Luthor produced 4 syringes, handing one to each team member before injecting a fifth into his arm.

"Something I keep just in case Superman was to show up," Luthor smiled, "As I said before, I have a plan. Distract Osborne long enough while Brainiac and I procure the technology from this dimension."

"Oh goody!" Toyman jumped on top of the Barbie, "Let's play a game! Come on Manta." The Barbie's arm plucked up Manta and placed him in her cleavage.

"I have disabled their computer systems," Brainiac picked up a bank of computer, sparks showering his green skin, "I am downloading the necessary information on the location of the device."

"What's in this stuff?" Sinestro's eyes began to glow yellow.

"What legends are made of," Luthor grinned.
