Marvel Flipside

Marvel Flipside: The End #1

*** MARVEL FLIPSIDE: THE END ***
Featuring: Forever Victory

The Wizard encounters Frightful in an abandoned alleyway. This wasn't what he expected-- the N-Zone looks a lot like New York. Frightful accuses Wizard's grav-tech of skewing their access to another dimension. They haven't gone anywhere-- except through time! And Frightful wasn't trying to flee the Wizard, he was trying to just get out of the way-- of *them!*

The Wizard and Dr. Frightful have stumbled into a super-battle-brawl! On one side, FOREVER VICTORY: The Molecule Man, Volcana, Victorious, Blastaar, and Ruby Thursday! On the other side, the future FRIGHTFUL FOUR: Mass Panic, the Scorcher, the Thing, and Madame MacEvil!

4-Victory #27

"It's FRIGHTFUL!" the Wizard screams. He's referring, of course, to DR. FRIGHTFUL, whose experiment to crash through the dimensional seams of earth into some sort of Negative Zone threaten to annhilate the very existence of reality! The wingless Wizard fights valiantly (if a bit nonchalantly, considering the stakes) alongside the rest of 4-Victory-- Mr. Victorious, the Fantastic Girl, Mole Man, and the Molecule Man.

But Frightful has anticipated this. He has laid his lair with all manner of traps and weaponry, keeping 4-Victory at bay. He claims that "it doesn't matter!" if life is obliterated, ever since his love, Malice, left with the rest of the Frightful Four to join Iron Man. Now, Frightful has been changed, physically and emotionally.

The science heroes manage to overcome Frightful, finally, but the portal to the Negative Zone is a permanent scar on reality. They'll need to plug it from both sides. Victorious offers himself as a sacrifice, as his arcanotech has the best potential to allow him to return. Frightful won't hear of it, and he escapes the clutches of 4-Victory by plunging headlong into the Negative Zone. ("Victorious will never claim victory... over me and my inventions!") The Wizard steps in front of Victorious, claiming that "this looks like a job for a particle physicist!" He attempts to lock onto Frightful's receding figure with his gravity-bending tech, but the Negative Zone's energies make it go "all wonky!" The Wizard is instead pulled inward, into the N-Zone!

Continued later this week, in MARVEL FLIPSIDE: THE END!

4-Victory: Super-Villain Team-Up #1

Now with a complete fic-let!

Dr. Frightful and the Frightful Four crash the latest StarkTech factory from Stark Industries-- the Foursome are more than happy to cause wanton destruction, and Frightful "allows" it, as long as he gets the photonic inducer! CRASH! Into the center of the facility--- where they find the villainous Iron Man already there! IMan appears to be ransacking the place, too, and Dr. F loses it, ordering the Frightful Four-- to attack!

4-Victory #26

Victorious is furiously etching an entire room within Victory Castle with his arcanotech-- his time on Earth might be limited. As a Herald of Galactus, he could be called at any time to perform his sacred duty. Until then... Ah! To have such power and be unable to help all of earth! But HE, VICTORIOUS, will do it, must do it!

4-Victory #25

The Wizard repeats what Mr. Victorious had just said moments ago-- "Galactus -- must wed?!" The rest of 4-Victory (Fantastic Girl, Mole Man) and their allies (Morgan Strange, Chondu the Mystic) are equally stymied. Mr. Victorious next words were even more astonishing-- he had hoped the bride of Galactus was standing in their number right now! But wait a minute? Isn't the captive Alicia, the Puppet Master, also in their number right now?

4-Victory #24

Victory Castle, and the pronouncement is dire! Mr. Victorious reveals the one place on earth that may decide the fate of the universe! What may happen in this location could mean the continued and ever-increasing proliferation of life, or it could plunge all of existence into utter annihilation! The Wizard double-checks the highlighted location on the Big Board. "Huh. Camden, New Jersey. Who knew?"

4-Victory #23

Has Mr. Victorious betrayed his friends?! They helped him escape the Shi'ar, but one they found the target of the alien armada, their "Deathbird," he took Deathbird with him, and even now is flying throught space on his surfobard with her, back towards the evil Imperiex, Lilandra! Despite Deathbird's questions, Victorious only knows that this MUST happen as if the universe itself demands it to be so!

4-Victory #22

Dragon Man kept pounding on the large rock that sat in the middle of courtyard of Victory Castle. The disruption was enough to summon all of 4-Victory to investigate. Among their various shouts: the Fantastic Girl yelling "Stop him, Mole Man! I don't want it to hurt him!"

4-Victory #21

With the events of that fateful rocket trip, the world was truly plunged into the Age of Marvels! But what happens when someone wants to recreate those events? That's what Ivan Kragoff wants to know. Unfortunately, that's also what Reed "Dr. Frightful" Richards wants to know, too!

4-Victory #20

"See ya, Mr. and Mrs. Grimm," Electro waved as he flew away on a lightning bolt, "Should those Yancy Streeters give you any trouble, just remember the ENFORCERS are on the beat!" Two storefront owners wave back while the hapless Y-Streets are static-clinged to fence for the police.
