AVENGERS INITIATIVE
The battle between good and evil has been raging throughout human history. It has taken many forms and been fought by many different individuals. Should the forces of darkness prevail, cruelty and unfairness would overtake the world. A terrible reign of injustice, oppression and despair would become a harsh reality. That cannot be allowed to happen.
Set during the decade of the nineteen nineties, this is a Generation X version of the Avengers story. In order to protect the world from evil, Earth's mightiest heroes must stand together. Their mission, quite simply, is to save the world. With threats as numerous as they are dangerous, it might be an unwinnable war. Despite the odds, the team is ready.
In June of 1992, the nation received a wake up call. The Attack on America was a warning that the forces of evil were poised to destroy our way of life. However, the intervention of Iron Man proved that there were heroes ready to stand up against these new and terrifying threats to the United States. From that fateful day, an idea was born. Tony Stark's act of bravery and heroism caused S.H.I.E.L.D. director Nick Fury to begin the Avengers Initiative.
Now is the time. In this age of heroes, there are new champions ready to believe in good. The incredible power of the Hulk has been harnessed to battle evil. From the realm of Asgard, the mighty Thor has sworn to protect the people of Earth. A pair of master assassins, Hawkeye and Black Widow, are ready to fight the good fight. The man out of time, Captain America, has returned to defend the country he loves. Led by Iron Man, the Avengers have assembled. The story of a generation begins here!
