Bit of a controversial take, but no one really stepped in to claim Hal... so I'll allow it.

Bio
Very well, where do I begin?
My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet.
My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament.
My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds - pretty standard, really. At the age of twelve, I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles.
There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum... it's breathtaking. I highly suggest you try it.

What an excellent way to announce that with the opening of the IC, we're waiving the 24-hour contesting period on all future applications! The Punisher and Howard The Duck are hereby ACCEPTED!

T H E S T O R Y S O F A R:
By most respects, the Age of Heroes began during one of Earth's darkest periods. In the days of World War II when the Allies were most desperate, a beacon of hope was born. Steve Rogers became Captain America, and helped to turn the tide. Along with the Howling Commandos and the superpowered agents known as The Invaders, Rogers helped to cripple the Nazi deep science division HYDRA, and turn the tide of the war, even if he was lost in the process.
Following the war, costumed adventurers inspired by Rogers popped up in the homeland, and banded together to form the Justice Society of America. They fought corruption, crime, and saboteurs during the cold war, and were generally supported by the public at large. Though, good things were not meant to last. The good will began to fade as super powered individuals began to increase in the 60's and 70's, and along with them the rise in metahuman collateral damage. In response to "Mutant", as the humans saw the metahumans, bigotry, the JSA disbanded and costumed heroes went into the shadows.
Things were quiet, with anti-mutant bigotry festering in the background, for decades. In order to track the movement and growth in the metahuman population, the United Nations formed SHIELD. Using the brightest minds in science and industry, the organization prepared for the day that metahumans would once again act out in the open.
That day came when a man with an "S" on his chest flew and caught a prototype LexCorp space shuttle out of the sky with his bare hands, saving countless innocent lives in the process. While the appearance of the so-called Superman was largely seen as a celebratory moment, some, including Lex Luthor, saw nothing but a potential threat. In response to the appearance of Superman, costumed heroes once again began to appear across the world ready to fight for good, and the public responded with approval.
But for every action, there was an equal and opposite one. As awe inspiring as the arrival of Superman was, the same could not be said for the appearance of a creature known only as The Hulk. The green goliath rampaged through a small town in New Mexico until he was driven off by a re-emergent Captain America and SHIELD. The raw destructive power of the creature struck fears into the hearts of humanity, and made world governments question whether metahumans should be tolerated.
So things went, with heroes and the villains they fought appearing and clashing across the globe.
Then, the creature known as Starro rose from the sea and began to enslave the people of Earth. Before its job could be completed, however, a team of heroes that called themselves the Justice League rose to oppose it. The League stopped the creature and became beloved for it, though the joining of such powerful entities drew the eyes of power-bases throughout the universe. It also drew the eyes of SHIELD, who started to put together a team of their own.
The first challenge to that new power came when the Chitauri, a hive-mind conquering race, appeared in Earth's orbit. When the Justice League moved to intercept the invaders in space, the Chitauri opened a portal above New York and launched their forces behind the superuman team. In response, SHIELD's team, dubbed The Avengers, deployed into the city and ended up ending the Chitauri threat. The two teams stood on an awkward stance of existing in their own spaces, though clearly on course for a clash at some point.
Now the world stood, seemingly protected by the world's mightiest and greatest heroes. But forces beyond comprehension have moved into position, and the World of Heroes will be tested as it has never been tested before...
So after deliberating on who would get the coveted cape and cowl, with solid arguments being made in favor of both players, me and my co-GMs have weighed in with a final vote for the game's Batman. With a solid concept in place that meshes well with the game's setting we're hoping to build just slightly edging out the fact that both apps were worthy of the Caped Crusader, Gotham's Dark Knight in this game will be @DocTachyon.
C H A R A C T E R M O T I V A T I O N S & G O A L S:I want to play these characters more because I'm deathly afraid Master Bruce will track me down in real life and murder me if I drop them. More to the point, I've loved Raven and Starfire ever since the Titans cartoon, and have wanted DC to do more with them as a duo ever since. The odd-couple dynamic is just too much fun to play around with, with the ability to go from light-hearted raunchy sitcom to deadly serious angsty drama. As I said before, in my opinion they're the ultimate buddy-cop combination, and I want to pick up more or less right where I left off with them in DCUG, with only a couple of minor revisions.
.....seriously, though, MB will kill me if I don't pick them up again. Send help.

Batman deliberations are taking some time. Bear with us, @DocTachyon and @Roman. For Wonder Woman, on the other hand, we've voted and have chosen @Cybermaxx as Queen of The Amazons!

You didn't even try that time.
Hey.
Shut up.
