Introduction
Pictured above, the death of Superman (Earth-21) at the hands of Hyper-Galactus
The setup:
Dark Matter Hulk, Dark Superman, Dark Venom, and the other super-powered Superheros had been abducted by Onslaught and imprisoned within the Realm of Nothingness, their memories erased. Earth-619 is without their protection, the human superheros (Batman, Iron Man etc.) are the planets only defense against the forces of evil which constantly assail the world.
Brief outline of the antagonists:
Galactus was one of the original inhabitants of the Taa universe, which existed before the Big Bang. A mysterious cataclysm had killed all other life in his universe, Galactus leaves the Taa universe (via a space vessel) which is collapsing into a sphere of disorganized, compact primordial matter, Galactus becoming engulfed in the Big Crunch. Galactus does not die, but is instead re-formed from the cosmic fires of the βBig Bangβ. There he gestates for billions of years in the next universe that is formed.
An unknown alien being from an alternate future (of the newly created universe) used his great power to take over the post-apocalyptic world he lived in, calling himself Hyperstorm. Eventually, he went on to conquer all the inhabited worlds of the explored space of his dimension, becoming a feared despot and heartless monster. Hyperstorm has the power to tap the extra-dimensional realm of hyperspace for any effect. He can control all forces of nature-- the electromagnetic force, the strong and weak nuclear force, and the gravitational force-- forces that emanate from hyperspace.
Galactus turns to Hyperstorm as a source of power to consume. The two battled, as the Unfathomable one attempts to stop a battle that would destroy his new creation, by drawing Galactus into a dimensional void, taking Hyperstorm with him. At some point within this void the two beings became a single, vastly more powerful being -Hyper-Galactus.
Hyper-Galactus is perhaps the most feared being in the cosmos. Hyper-Galactus is like a force of nature; an inevitable, planetary catastrophe that there is no reasoning with, no bargaining with and no escaping. Being from the very beginnings of existence Galactus possesses power beyond most forms of measurement (The Power Cosmic). Hyper-Galactus certainly considers himself the highest being in the universe, maintaining his existence by devouring planets that have the potential for supporting life.
Galactus has been traveling through all the alternate universes, destroying the superheros he has come into contact with. He has now entered the Dark Hero Earth universe (Earth 619).
Read the full story of Galactus under the character tab
The minions of Galactus:
Punisher Cyborgs "Extraterrestrials of unknown origin, semi-organic killing machines"
The Punisher has superhuman strength and durability. It can fly through both air and space. Can attach itself to any surface on which it stands, making it very difficult to knock from its feet. It is composed of an unknown material, described by Iron Man as not metal, but metalized living tissue.
- The exact origins of the Punisher are unknown, though there is evidence that it was in existence prior to the creation of the present universe, Galactus replicated the Punisher into a small army of Punishers. Galactus apparently recalled and repaired the Punisher some point after reforming himself.
Height: 8"
Weight: 960 pounds

The Story So Far... Write a Post » as written by 5 authors
Reaching for one of the levers before him Hyper-Galactus contemplates vanquishing this dishonest and treacherous creature. Kevlar is spared obliteration, as Galactus calculates the expenditure of energy needed to tare this insect out of space and time. Knowing that this creature, along with the rest of the human race will be dealt with soon enough Galactus pulls his hand away from the lever.
His interest had been drawn away from the two creatures when he noticed the item that Kevlar had set upon the ground-He desired it, he needed to possess it.
A rather brutish thought entered Stark's mind as he neared the Batcave. He imagined a well-deserved beating to the troublemaker themself by none other than Iron Man. A bit odd, but maybe that was just the stress becoming visible in his mind. In any case, it'd be better for whoever caused Stark this trouble to stay out of his grasp, which was exactly what he or she was doing to Tony's dismay.
.
.
.
The scene Tony Stark arrived to was... interesting. Not only Joker but Killer Croc and Two-Face laid defeated on the cold, dirt ground of the once-great Batcave. The walls had suffered serious damage, and the place was anything but clean as far as Iron Man could see. After he gave the first glance around, he payed no more attention to the defeated villains nor even the two other concious persons in the room and directly addressed the detective himself. His facemask lowered so he could better speak to the Batman as he stepped forward and made sure his presence was known to everyone.
"If you're done playing with these clowns, I'm in need of your detective skills, Batman," he said calmly and realized he had a least taken back some of his character. Maybe it was the sight of defeated foes on the ground, who knows?
Barbara had been reaching towards Arrow, to put a hand on his shoulder and get him to his feet, when he made his proclamation... and was simply not 'there' anymore. The shock of the situation was such that Barbara stared at the spot he'd been for several long seconds. Even the men with whom they'd been so recently fighting seem stunned by what'd happened, and it isnt until one of them shuffles uncomfortably and - almost sheepishly - asks his boss 'what now?'
What now, indeed? Batwoman points her hand - and the grapling gun held there - straight up, and she is whisked away and out of their reaches, even if they did manage to recover enough to continue their tussle. The caped woman disappears through a bullet-shattered skylight and back out into Gotham's maze of buildings, racing back towards the damaged Wayne Mansion.
She had no idea, yet, what she would tell Batman asside from the truth. It was easy to fall into the lull that Bruce would know what to do, how to handle this. That was dangerous, and unfair to him. But Barbara was an information powerhouse, and often researched other masked individuals - good AND evil - just to add to her own collection of data. Galactus was a familiar name, but none of it good. Not good at -all-. And now they had a friend who had foretold of his comming, only to disappear into thin air with no clue to his whereabouts...
What now? God only knew.
Setting
0.00 INK
Batman stared at the face of Tony Stark, irritated by his calm and relaxed demeanour. However, the Dark Knight knew that if Tony needed a favour, he was to be taken seriously. Refusing to be carried around Gotham by the Golden Knight, he accessed his own Stark inspired Batsuit, which was literally an Iron Man suit with a paintjob, a Kevlar cape and a bat symbol on the chest. The lights were also red instead of black. Finally, Bruce listened to Starks brief on what had happened and where the scene was. He nodded, and issued orders to Moon Spell and Nightwing.
"You two. Put those three away" he gestures to the villains "then rebuild the Batcave. I'll be back soon."
With that Batman and Iron Man jetted off, and Batman radioed Barbara to meet him at the building. She might see something Batman missed, and was invaluable help. He sent her the coordinates of her location, then sped up to catch Tony.
Batman sighed, weary. There was no end to the war.... No matter what anyone else said.

Besides. Never hurts to stretch out the plot. No fun if it all gets wrapped up in 3 days. :P
And for Kev; if any of you ever want him to 'slip up' somewhere to make your RP more awsome, just lemme know. No one's perfect so I'm more then happy to mess up for roleplay.
Re: Dark Avengers: The Galactus Wars
That is a joke, by the way. XD
Tony doesn't make it a point to hide his residence. Also, will post tomorrow/today, need sleep if I'm going to make a decent one.

Re: Dark Avengers: The Galactus Wars
I would assume that under normal circumstances, he wouldn't, but these aren't normal times. These are desperate times, times of uncertainty, times of un unknown tomorrow.
Re: Dark Avengers: The Galactus Wars
Wade: I'm confused what you did with Green Arrow. You said he vanished? But then just collapsed? What's he doing right now?
I'll reply as batwoman soon as I figure that out. :3

Re: Dark Avengers: The Galactus Wars
Tony Stark might be a bit better at being a detective than the average joe, but lets let Batman shine here. On that note... I'm going to have to wait until they finish up... D:
Unless they want Tony Stark, Aka the tank among the human-heros bursting in an ruining their fun...
Re: Dark Avengers: The Galactus Wars
Posted to you, you can find whatever other telltale evidence you want. Security cameras, etc. I just kinda outlined what you'd initially find. Maybe it's a job for the world's greatest detective? XD
Either way, it should be fun times to be mucking around with an invasion detection network when we're... well, on the verge of being invaded. >_>
Re: Dark Avengers: The Galactus Wars
Apparently, my inbox decided to delay a message telling me I should post until just today.....
