Swordsmoke: Conquer

Marc stands, razor scraping across his scalp. When the last of his hair falls, he presses a finger to his skin. His golden touch burns, lines spread across his head—markings like Brutas's. Four months passed since he declared war. Marc suspects something. No ships come or go. No outside aid. He believes Shepard is hiding Ares Island from the rest of the United Islands. Tonight they strike a Hunter outpost—Daryl’s rumored location. Marc leads the team: James, Strider, Ellie, and Norman. Back at their hidden base, Red, Mitch, and Clint work on reclaiming the Agency. Ghost has lost everything—funding, headquarters. Clint feels trapped. His girlfriend waits back home, but he wants purpose. Mitch tells him it’s okay to walk away. At the outpost, Norman freezes, remembering Hermes Island—Gunn’s torture, the beach where he was left to die. The Hunter structure feels familiar. Mercenary's fingerprints. The assault begins loud. They carve through and reach the command room. They find proof the outside islands don’t know Ares is at war. Marc sees body-cam footage. Killshot—Tobey Anderson—stands outside their base. Behind him is Jack Grayson. Red arms himself despite Mitch’s warning. He locks the door behind him. Mitch watches helplessly through the window. Red charges. Killshot disarms him instantly. Jack pulls a pistol and shoots Red in the head. Marc smashes the monitor in rage. They race back. They arrive. Mitch lies beaten. Scarred into his chest are the words: “WE HAVE HUNTER.”

Swordsmoke: Fallout

Norman Ryder and James Rain move through the outskirts of a Hunter outpost, searching for clues about Wraith’s plans. Norman carries a secret: Mercenary is alive, secretly backing both Wraith and the Hunters. Only Norman, Shepard, and Jack know. Three days remain until the presidential election, and Marc is pushing hard for votes, hoping to avoid the war he knows may come. During the mission, Norman and James are discovered. A brutal fight erupts. When the dust settles only a few Hunters remain. Norman tries reasoning with them, reminding them he created the Hunters, that they should not follow Daryl. Their leader knocks Norman down, warning him to leave with Sgt. Rain. James raises his gun—but Daryl arrives. He tells them if they continue they’ll become fugitives. Daryl beats Norman. Norman accuses him of brainwashing the Hunters. Daryl removes the leader’s mask: Tobey Anderson, once a child raised among Norman’s Hunters. Now nineteen, twisted by Daryl’s rule. Tobey orders Norman to stay down as they leave. James carries Norman back to the Agency. Three days pass. Election night arrives. James, Clint, Norman, Strider, Red, and Mitch gather around a radio while Marc speaks at the capital on Athena Island. Shepard smiles as the results arrive. Eugene Shepard wins the presidency. Marc breathes out and declares Ghost at war with the United Islands. The broadcast cuts. Strider calmly shuts off the radio, satisfied. A knock sounds. Norman opens the door. Ellie stands there.

The Flash: Countdown 3️⃣2️⃣1️⃣

Barry Allen strains against Weather Wizard’s storm. He’s slower—has been for eight months—since Wally vanished into Speed defeating Savitar. Barry wins, barely. He doesn’t celebrate. He hunts. Crime has learned to fear him. Then Lorre Morning appears—Time Trapper—freezing bullets, bridges, hearts mid-beat. Twisted by Savitar’s storm, he can freeze anything in time. Barry is pushed and pushed. When Lorre tries to kill a little girl, Barry lets go. Lightning. Silence. Lorre dies. Barry breaks. He locks himself inside the Speed Force, meditating in endless lightning, refusing the world. Months pass until Jay Garrick reaches him: someone is siphoning the Speed Force. From Barry’s Earth. A name echoes—Godspeed. Barry returns. Firestorm, Atom, and Green Arrow stand with him at a Dark Speed Force–corrupted warehouse. A vortex rages. Barry is struck—thrown through time. Four months ago. Lorre’s death. Godspeed stands over him. “You did this.” Barry is forced to relive the kill—again and again—each loop ending in lightning and regret. He finally surges, cracks Godspeed’s mask. August Hart. Lorre’s half brother. August sobs—he’s studied timelines for months. Every change ends with Lorre dead. “There’s always another way!” Barry holds him. “I lost my brother too.” August lets go. He returns the stolen speed; the vortex collapses to steel and silence. One month later, Ryan Choi calls Barry back. “We could reignite it. Bring Wally home.” At the end of time an evil smile waits. Thawne.

Underworld Productions Marvel Announcement

Hi, I haven't made an announcement in a while, and it's sad that this is the one I'm making but it's time to make it. With the conclusion of the Midnight Saga in my current Marvel universe, we move on to the third and final saga of this universe. After this saga it could go two ways, either I take a break from Marvel indefinitely, or I reboot, I'm more thinking about the former. I think I've told the story I wanted to with these versions of the marvel heroes and villains. Spider-Man's story is complete and there will be no more Spider-Man films in this universe, he will make appearances in other films but his story is complete and ended with Harry's death. You might wonder why certain characters like Gwen, Doc Ock, and Captain Stacy lived unlike the comics or other movies, and it's because this version of Spider-Man's story was always going to be about Harry, specifically Harry's fall and his eventual tragedy, it didn't need Gwen or George Stacy to die because it wasn't about them, Peter hardly had a love interest and that was intentional. As for this new saga, I can announce it is called The Doom Saga and I already have every film planned, so you can see each one as roles on this story.

Captain America: World War III

In Wakanda, Captain America, Winter Soldier, and Sam Wilson fight beside Black Panther, holding the line while T’Chaka remains captive in Latveria. Beyond the border, Steve, Sam, and Namor who has broken his ties with Doom, strike HYDRA outposts now allied with Doom. Crossbones, Grim Reaper, and Taskmaster command the fronts while Baron Zemo operates from Doomsdadt. T’Challa and Shuri race to New York to escort Reed Richards and Nick Fury back to Wakanda. Reed designs a counter-weapon; Fury carries a serum to strip Quasar of his cosmic power—end the power source, end the war. Steve keeps reaching out to Reaper, reminding him his brother fights with the Avengers. Doubt grows. The assault on Latveria ignites. Bucky, Sam, and Reaper—now turned—carve a path to Zemo. Fury sacrifices himself destroying Zemo’s escape and hands Steve the serum. Steve injects Quasar mid-battle; the cosmic glow dies. Doctor Doom “surrenders,” and World War III ends almost as it began. But in the square of Doomsdadt, Zemo executes T’Chaka before T’Challa’s eyes. The cost is carved in stone. Steve, Bucky, Sam, and Reed return home; Reaper stays in Wakanda as Quasar and Crossbones enter custody. Doom kneels—smiling. He is not finished.

A recap of every film in The Midnight Saga from Scarlet Witch 2 through Spider-Man vs The Sinister Six

This Hunter regime is government-backed, and the government itself answers to something unseen and powerful. They bring Mitch to Marc and explain. Marc urges—once elected, he’ll end it legally. Strider storms in with worse news: the same shadow organization funding the Hunters is now openly endorsing Eugene Shepard and the Dark Agency’s rebrand—Wraith.
