Welcome to the Metroverse Wiki
Altough heroes such as Sherlock Holmes had been fighting evil before, most agree that the true age of modern heroism began in 1938 with the appearance of Captain Metro, one of the greatest and most famous superheroes of all time, in New York City. Shortly afterwards, other superpowed metahumans were donning costumes to bring justice to the streets in the wake of the Great Depression.

Shortly afterwards, WW2 occurred, with Adolf Hitler unleashing various superpowered horrors, including the Ubersoldats and extremely powerful class-1 metahumans such as Fafnir and Kaptain Krieger. His possession of the spear of destiny prevented Allied heroes from intervening in Germany. Nevertheless, many Allied heroes served with distinction during the war, especially Metro, who thwarted an attack on the US East Coast by Krieger.

These days, most nations possess heroes. The Soviet Union continues to remain a superpower, thanks to Red Son, one of the most powerful class 1 supers on the planet. China remains staunchly communist, with it's People's Representative keeping it true to Mao's legacy. North Korea, a twisted dictatorship under the iron first of Kim Jong-il, possesses its own metas who wreck havoc on behalf of their Dear Leader. Japan retains a different system of heroes to the rest of the world; the Mech Corps and the Anti-Kaiju teams of the JSDF form its technological arm, whereas the Magical Girls and Chi Warriors, source of much controversy and debate, deal with other threats.

Humanity has made contact with many alien races over the years, with knowledge of other beings been common since the Martian incursion into Britain in 1898. A few alien beings, including the Jovian Judicator, have pledge their services to humanity. The Earth has suffered several invasions, by races such as Krell, the O'rganii, and the Mecx.

Magik also exists, although its users are rare and specialised, and are generally not considered very prolific compared to regular superheroes. Although higher masters of Magik are very potent, they are also very rare and reclusive, and most superheroes have some immunity to magik.

Massive world-threatening events are not uncommon, along with various other supervillain attack. The Crisis on Eternal Earths in 1985 required the co-operation of nearly every superhero, and the destruction of Philadelphia in 2001 by the Jihadist was also controversial.
