The concept of the future 2099 universe in Marvel Comics has always intrigued me, and as a kid I collected every issue of the original Spiderman 2099 run as well as several issues of 2099 Unlimited that featured Hulk 2099, but also some issues of Punisher 2099 and Ghost Rider 2099. At some point after the year 2000, Marvel tried to capture what was once something of a successful new universe with Daredevil and others getting 2099 make-overs. Recently during the Secret Wars crossover event that's reshaping the MU, an Avengers 2099 finally happened with some weird form of Spiderman 2099 as the antagonist and CEO of Alchemax. It consisted of a jacked up female Capt. America, Hercules, a blue skinned Sub Mariner, a winged Hawkeye [no there was no bow or arrows that I could see] a ridiculously teched out Black Widow, and a wilder looking Ironman.

Basically in this RP, if it makes it to an OOC and IC, it's a new Marvel universe 74 years in the future. Spiderman 2099 is the only remaining cannon character since he's pretty much the best 2099 has got so far. At this point, IDK if we'll be the product of Alcehmax trying to make it's own heroes, or just a team that comes together to fight big corporations like Alchemax.

I'm not gonna bother with a CS model yet, this is clearly just an interest check and to see what kinda characters/players we might get for this. I was thinking of either Ghost Rider or Cyclops myself and using one of the Tron Marvel variant covers for reference.

So, who wants to save the future?

Can't promise commitment, but definitely caught my interest.

Definitely interested! If we are using cannon Marvel characters, then I'd love to use a retooled version of Ghost as a hero. If not, maybe a futuristic War-Machine or Colossus.

I had a hankering for something like this a few weeks back so I'm going to indicate my interest.

^^^Sweet. Glad to see some people into the concept. And I'm happy to see the characters mentioned aren't exactly Avengers A listers. I actually think I've got an idea for the concept now....

In an attempt to take down Spiderman, Alchemax begins manufacturing it's own superhumans based on superheroes from the 20th and early 21st centuries. In an effort to aid the Spiderman of 2099, who's now gone missing, heroes began to rise to take the fight to Alchemax and their Big Brother way of ruling the once great city of Nueva York [formerly NYC]. Who could've imagined the outcasts and even powerless heroes that stepped up to fight for the citizens stuck in the downtown street level division of the city.

Just to be clear, the rich and powerful live on the higher floors of more glamorous buildings and skyscrapers. The lower class live closer to the bottom with the middle class of course being stuck in the middle. There are flying cars. And in place of a police force is the privatized Public Eye law enforcement who have cameras everywhere they can have them. The Public Eye for me was always something similar to Judge Dredd, flying bikes, ridiculous amounts of weaponry and gear, and the authority to get away with murder.

Sound good guys?

I may go with a take on Daredevil after seeing some redesign like this one...



~KL~

Interested, by the way, is the Titans RP still alive? I thought it had died but I recently saw OOC activity?

I'll stick around. No idea if the guy above me meant 'Ghost' as in 'Ghost Rider', but if he isn't taking GR, I'd be interested in playing GR.

This is what I'm going off of. In a weird way Ghost is an anti-hero. A very manic, unstable anti-hero...

interested

I'd just like to indicate my interest is to play a Thor 2099 character where all the godly attributes are derived from technology kind of like the original Ultimate version.

I'm thinking of going Hobgoblin. But I may change my mind.

i may go for Havok but dunno

I honestly thought of ways to make Sleepwalker interesting and futuristic...

~KL~

I'm thinking of a runaway Terminator-esque Ghost Rider, from the images I'm finding...

I know there's no CS format yet, but I wanted to get my ideas down while I had a few spare moments.

I'm honestly hyped for all the hero disagreement and/or misunderstanding fights. Thor 2099 vs. Ghost 2099 vs. Ghost Rider 2099 vs. etc

This sounds awesome. You still have room for another role-player?

Yeah I haven't actually taken any CS applications just yet. Been working on my truck the last couple days so I just wanted to toss an iCheck at everyone and see if enough people could get invested in the idea. I'm finishing my rear breaks this evening then I'll get a CS model typed up and an OOC and decide on who'll I'll rework myself.

Part of me is debating a late teen Torus Storm. With daddy Johnny and mommy Lyja, and all that fun stuff.
