started when I needed a Hero group controlled by the
government. I had used it a couple of different times
in my RPG days. Always having different characters
in it. Sometimes they were the good guys and
sometimes they were the bad guys. When I was
doing my comic book I wanted to think of a name that
popped back in my head. I tossed it around to a few
people and they liked it. I adjusted it slightly to make
them have good and evil characters instead of just
good or evil. I kept them under the boot of the
superhuman arms race that was starting with the
emergence of superpowers.
A QUICK ORIGIN OF The League
When the Superhuman arms race started the
American Government took the lead in Superhuman
development. They contacted two people that would
lead the team. Each had there own strengths and
weakness for the team. U.S. Archer was easily the
leader of the group but they needed someone to
back him up. Novastar easily gave U.S. Archer what
he needed. The next recruit was a Phoenix Firestorm
who powers had accidentally killed an entire rester
aunt. She joined the Military to gain control of her
powers and feels horrible about what she has done.
Mr. Hiss joined after a botched attempt at a bank
robbery. S.A.M. joined after killing several drug
runners down in Florida. Dr. Von Strangle joined
after being captured in a museum heist.
The Groups first mission was to stop a group called
the elementals from destroying Washington DC.
Which they did but were unable to capture the groups
superhumans Gravity General, Goddess of Sand,
Maelstrom and Equinox.
