Even More Tangent Universe

Via Zombie Mallet in IM.


Ghost Rider: The Viral A.I.

A combination of Jack Hawksmore and Deadman, he transfers through city after city, possessing people to stop his creator Hacker: Zarathos from taking over the world net!

My reaction to ZM's idea?

Well, given the fact I happen to love Deadman and this makes his concept even cooler - I have been kicked in the face by awesome and can't but post about it!

*Appoints ZM as Minion #1*

Do Note: Minion ideas may kick me in the face and be filled with awesome. Any actual kicking in the face involves immediate target lock and the individual classified as enemy.

Lurker would you like to be Minion #2?

See Lurker's continued kickass ideas here.

Also can any of us do something with these ideas? Granted I seriously doubt many of us have the time to write out long involved fanfiction. But seriously could it hurt to do summaries once a week or something?

*ponders*

On second thought, it'd be more than one summary, wouldn't it at the rate I'm going.

Just off into the woods next door or down the street, just down that alley, behind that old neglected house, just behind that dumpster, that burnt out car, is a place of ambient energy that calls to the guilty and the sorrowfully bereaved.

It is judge and executioner. It is hope and redemption.

Have you ever wondered about amnesiacs?

Sometimes the person who finds this place has searched long and hard, discovered symbols and ceremonies to bring it to them, they believe that with one single act of self sacrifice they can bring someone back who died before their time.

Have you ever wondered about the maniacs who're never caught? Or the ones you've never heard of?

Sometimes the person who finds it, stumbles upon it, drenched in hubris that their dark deeds will never be discovered. These individuals discover that something has been watching them all along or has been sent to them and now, violently, it will judge them guilty.

Either way, it uses the spirits it finds to generate magic to sustain itself. It can be a puddle, or the shadowy figure of a man, the cat who walks through walls to stare boldly into the eyes of a butcher of men or the crow on the sill listening to a mother's weeping.

It is the Deadpool.

Tangent Universes 2

Racism makes me cranky. So more Tangent Marvelverse

Utilizing Luker's X-Man, I did this bit in comments.(side note: y'all folk who want to win minion have a LOT of sucking up to do. He's got you beat by three laps already)

After hundreds of years of protecting the human race, Gambit loses X-Man in 2014. But not before his heroic actions catch the eye of a group within Exiles.

Engineers and computer entrepreneurs all, the group steals X-Man's remains, but only so they can create The Uncanny X-Men, technological heirs of a fallen hero who will now take his place many times over in the fight to preserve sentient life on planet earth and in this galaxy.

Come follow the adventures of The Uncanny X-Men and their pit crew in their fight to right all wrongs the Milky Way is not yet otherwise equipped to handle.

I'm not quite sure which individual in this one inspired the others :)

-

The demi-goddess Circe is an often forgotten bit of Greek lore. Certainly the three women whose lives she forever changed likely hadn't thought about her as more than a mention in highschool, or on some television show about Odysseys.

But Circe lives and while she no longer focuses solely on condemning and in fact now chooses champions, her methods haven't changed too much over the years.

A young, black police woman about to be surrounded by neo-nazi's finds herself transforming. Misty Knight is now Black Panther.

A law student on her way home from school rushes into a burning building to save a child and finds herself transforming from Allison Blaire into White Tiger.

Fleeing the hit men who murdered her parents, Jubilation Lee feels a surge of new found strength sweep over her as she becomes Silver Fox.

Forever given the ability to transform into beings half beast and half human, these women will be found one by one by Circe's original champion, Ekletra Natchios, The Wolverine, chosen by Circe since the tender age of five and molded by the goddess into a capable warrior. Because Circe intends to create a group of warriors loyal to her who'll respond to the injustices against women and innocents she has viewed in the world. Her chosen champions will be The Avengers.

Oh! It's so corny and happy making! *hugs her little tangent Avengers*

Tangent Universes

In a second I'm going to post this here, where it was inspired over at A Trout In The Milk.

I was really captivated by the idea of Digression Comics and a Tangent Universe. These are my Marvel Ideas.



***

The world is full of mysteries, marvels, miracles and magic, not all of it good. When things go wrong and innocents are hurt an organization almost as old as time, sends out agents to be army, spies, medics, counselors and more.

They are Gambit. They battle the forces against nature; the living dead, monsters of chaos, rips between dimensions.

And they do it all knowing each time one of their number will die, because that is the price Gambit pays for saving the world.

***


In 2012, within the physical location of the area known as the Bermuda Triangle a portal opens up and hundreds upon hundreds of individuals pour out. To everyone watching on the news, it's as if magic is happening. To the world's governments it's a nightmare and the first public step of a secret deal they've made with higher alien powers.

This is the first day of the rest of their lives for Exiles, political problems of a far off Space Empire. With a new regime in place everyone from the prior Princess to Celestial Guards to The Royal Cook has been cast into the furtherest reaches of uncivilized space.

Earth.

It is now their home. Human beings? Millions upon millions of guards.

Can the Exiles and Earth ever find a way to change this situation? Will they be content? Or has Earth just made the biggest mistake possible and given over everything to these few hundred aliens.

New York City never sleeps, but when the sun sets and alley-ways fill with shadows, a guardian walks its rooftops, listening, watching, protecting. The island of Manhattan is the domain of The Amazing Nightcrawler.

But this dark vigilante, this wielder of shadow magic is more than just an individual's answer to crime, injustice and pain. He is a spirit curse wielded jointly by the Family Wagner of Wagner's Coffee & Books; Grandmother, son and granddaughter; Raven, Kurt and Talia. They are three generations touched by magic, trying to use it for good.
