With the Chad Bowers interview recently posted, and with Bad-Rocking having just scored an interview with Joe Keatinge, it seems like getting in touch with previous authors is not a pipe dream for your average Extreme fan.

With that in mind, does anybody have ideas for how to get in contact with Erik Stephenson? I've looked around, but he has no social media, personal website or public email that I've been able to find. Getting him to share what his plans were for his 90s Youngblood run would close a hole in my heart.

The Modern Extreme

https://preview.redd.it/qq952seuhktg1.png?width=921&format=png&auto=webp&s=2fb87486302cb69e6727b08ce285ffe9f568926d

In the current, most recent iteration of the Extreme Universe, super-powered beings, called Nu-Genes, Re:Gexes or Human Enhanciles in the past, are now also called Meta Humans. Shaft's girlfriend, Shelly Price, is no longer the District Attorney as in Rob Liefeld's Revision, but a supermodel. Youngblood don't encounter Prophet's frozen body for the first time in a German laboratory, but during an Iraqui mission, where the Saddam Hussein-stand-in Hassan Kussein is trying to use Prophet as a Meta-Human Weapon of Mass Destruction. Cabbot Stone gets a new addition to his backstory, as it's introduced that he was mentored into Bloodstrike by Operative: Omega, also called Blackstrike.

Most major events occur like in past incarnations: The Keep arrive to harvest super-powered beings, but they're pushed out of Earth; Avengelyne births the half-Demon Magog, and ultimately kills him during the War of Armageddon, but this time the war doesn't last 100 years; the original Youngblood disband, and Waxey Doyle funds a new incarnation to relive his youth by proxy, but that team "collapses under its own weight," as Doyle almost goes broke funding it. To keep them out of debt, his son Big Brother sells his robot designs to the Government.

When the Administration decides they need to deflect attention from the War on Kazakhstan, they have Director Douglas McGarry create a new Youngblood as a Reality TV show with the final goal of sending the team into the War as well. McGarry arranges for the heroes to fight a corporate-created supervillain team, Mayhem, Inc, composed of Giger (formerly Director of Cybernet), Blackrock and Warwolf (former underlings of Cybernet when it was run by Director Maddock), and Poppy (one-time member of a failed attempt by Sentinel to create his own Youngblood team after he was declared guilty of murder). Meanwhile, Scion, daughter of Spacehunter of the Allies, tries to warn Earth that her guardian has gone insane and is headed to Earth to destroy it, and Badrock grapples with his rock-skin coming apart.

https://preview.redd.it/0ikrgnjyhktg1.png?width=1000&format=png&auto=webp&s=92b7e875b1e3e7548ae320afffc6694fd4fa9a1c

During this tenure, Youngblood helps fight in the Invincible War. After Shaft learns the truth about the formation of their team, they agree to go underground and fight for causes that really matter. In their stead, the Government replaces them with Task (formerly of Bloodpool), Sundance (formerly of the New Men) and newcomers Jamm, Hatch, Sentinel V. 2.0. and Spyke. The new team faces Stormhead as their first villain, even as the underground team faces former Supreme foe the Televillain.

Following Barack Obama's inaguration as President, he reforms the team by bringing Big Brother back into the fold, as well as Kiesha Langston, the newly-revealed sister of Sentinel. Further, he appoints Chapel's newly-revealed son, Chapel, Jr., as his bodyguard in the Secret Service. He also reactivates the World War II Diehard, Calvin Raines, as the Free Agent.

Around this time, a new Bloodstrike lineup comes onto scene, formed by Cabbot Stone, his clone Bloodstrike: Assassin, Fourplay, Deadlock, Lynx of Jakarra, Kodiak and Byrd of the New Men, Lethal of Brigade, street-level vigilantes Knightmare and Cybrid, and Combat and Troll of Youngblood.

After Battlestone adopts Seahawk of his original Brigade team, he also adopts a young man, Takeo, who becomes a new Kayo. Alongside Lethal, who splits her time with Bloodstrike, they form a new Brigade with the sons of Seahawk, Seahawk II and Coldsnap II, the always-dependable Boone, and the son of the original Stasis, Stasis II.

A new, teenage ShadowHawk applies to join Youngblood right as a global crisis erupts, and Youngblood are dispatched all over America to unite with Supreme, Bloodstrike: Assassin, Savage Dragon, Spawn, Witchblade and Cyberforce to fight many of their villains, as well as Youngblood foes Girth, Mayhem Inc., the original Chapel, Quantum, and Crypt, all led by the mysterious Omega Spawn. The crisis ends with the death of ShadowHawk, and the resurrection of his predecessor in the mantle, Paul Johnstone.

When the President is attacked in the White House by the mysterious group known as The Phoenix, he's rescued by time-travelers Jeriko and a Badrock from the future going by Madrock, as they take Obama out of the timestream.

Avengelyne helps free Arcana Studio's Koni Waves from a demonic possession, but she receives a prophecy that she'll be stripped of her Angelic essence soon. This comes to pass when Satan (renamed the Red Dragon in this Revision)'s term in Hell comes to a close, so, having to choose a vessel in which to walk Earth in search of his new apprentice, he takes over Avengelyne's body, sending her mind to that of a stripper named Heaven. With the Angel Passover's help, Avengelyne frees her body and befriends Heaven, her friend Tegan, and they defeat the Red Dragon's apprentice, Torment. Alongside Avengelyne's best friend, Peter, the gang meet The Coven, tackle the Four Horsemen of Apocalypse, grapple with the arrival of vigilante serial killer Priest (now reimagined as part of the old Operation: Knightstrike), and reunite with Avengelyne's ally, Devlin Trask, now part of a new task force called Operation: Hellstrike, used to combat supernatural threats. Originally, Hellstrike was formed by Devlin and new characters Reverb, Vagabond, Poundcake and Outlaw, but now only Devlin remains.

In Georgia, recent Army recruits Bowen and Case are visited by a Bowen from eighteen years in the future, who warns them that the military has been infiltrated by a supervillain called Imperius who will turn it into his personal army, the Infinite, and eventually take over the world. Together with Duel, CIA Agent Emily Herrod, and Infinite deserter Core, they form a small resistance group.

2012 Interruptus

https://preview.redd.it/bgz1k6eknktg1.png?width=585&format=png&auto=webp&s=65d1bb6a11b32833c48291c2f984a1006df3bb8d

In 2012, publication shifted to showcase a parallel Extreme Earth for a period, an Earth with many key differences: Glory's people aren't Amazonians nor from the greek realm of Ultima Thule, but Thules, extradimensional beings created by gods called the Knights of Thule who give them their kingdom, Thule, and an afterlife where they go after death. The Thules, modeling themselves after their gods, give the Ten Commandments to Moses in ancient Egypt, are worshipped by the Vikings, and create the legends of angels and demons, even as they spread their kingdom throughout several realities they colonize.

Unlike in any other Revision, Glory arrives on Earth decades before World War II, and she befriends people like Ernest Hemingway and meets the love of her life, Emilie, until Emilie takes her own life because she can't stand the fact that she's aging and becoming old while Glory remains immortal. This pushes Glory to become a more brutal, single-minded warrior for the rest of her life. The conclusion of Glory's adventure with Avengelyne to stop Zeus is revealed for the first time, as it's clarified that it was all a plot from the Red Dragon, who whispered into Perseus' ears so that he would gain his father Zeus's favor. Like in Alan Moore's Revision, Glory fuses herself to a human, Gloria West, and they make the sharing of bodies work, until Glory abruptly has to break it off and tend to Thule, where her father, Lord Silverfall, has broken her truce with Lady Demeter's realm and they're at war. Unknown to Glory, the war is a pretense, as Silverfall and Demeter are deeply in love but know nothing short of a public end to the conflict will convince their peoples to join forces. However, the war is interrupted by the arrival of a Knight of Thule, who decimates both armies and forces them to hide on Earth. There, Gloria has been left aimless, and she searches for Glory for five years until she finds her in France, broken and barely alive after fighting the Knight. Glory and Gloria assemble a number of allies, including Thule native Henry and Glory's childhood cat, the gigantic Beleszava.

After a couple of years of resting, Thulians track down their village. Glory and her allies defeat what they think is a first wave of her father's soldiers, but is actually all that remained of Thule's both armies. Glory recruits her newly-revealed sister, Nanaja, conceived after Glory first left for Earth as a symbol to keep the truce between Silverfall and Demeter's peoples. Together, they find their parents and learn they're in love and have borne a third child, Riley, a new sibling for the girls.

Everyone prepares for a final struggle against the Knight, recruiting Avengelyne, Youngblood, Bloodpool, the New Men, Bloodstrike, Brigade, Supreme, Suprema, Bloodwulf, Kaboom, and newcomers Rein-East and Sharpsmooth, two aliens from the Scale World and allies of Prophet, and the anthropomorphic bear Badbear. Despite their numbers, the Knight of Thule is relentless, and as allies begin to die, Supreme attempts to take over as leader, prompting Glory to tear his arm off. In order to defeat the Knight, Glory is forced to succumb to a warrior's madness. One of her human allies, Riley Barnes, has a prophetic dream in which attempting to fight this unhinged Glory will lead to 500 years of destruction, so, instead of that, she willingly allows Glory to kill her, which snaps the Thulian out of her rage and prevents the catastrophic future. After a deal with her gods, Glory is allowed an early visit to the afterlife in exchange for the fact that she'll never go there again when she eventually dies. She encounters Riley, who assures Glory she did the right thing, and reunites with her original lover Emilie, allowing Glory to move on with her life.

https://preview.redd.it/n5w253annktg1.png?width=413&format=png&auto=webp&s=dcf993e47c7b775f1255bf463d1df817cb58aad8

This reality's Youngblood face off against new villain Starcore on the moon, but when the team's damaged ship attempts to make it back to Earth, Badrock is forced to break the fall using his own body. After Badrock is placed on a life support capsule, Shaft quits the team for allowing the incident to happen. He's replaced by a new, blue Shaft, and Photon switches his sex to that of a woman, as Acurans swap sexes every seven years in this reality. Like in the main reality, Obama was snatched away, but in this one no one realizes it, because he was immediately replaced by a creature, possibly a demon or alien, who is posing as the real President. A strange ghost woman watches over Badrock's healing body. Someone keeps sending corpses of dead Vogues from the future to the original Shaft, now simply working as Jeff Terrell in the FBI. Youngblood defeat B'gart, a galactic gambler who stole Vegas after winning the entire city in a game of cards. Badrock heals himself, breaking his way out of his old shell after using it to regenerate as if in a cocoon.

https://preview.redd.it/jock3y16iktg1.png?width=650&format=png&auto=webp&s=58c306ca001d7bc6441ab17136b2b7561f89f4b6

Avengelyne's adventures continue straight from where she left off in the prime reality, as her friend Devlin Trask calls in a new government organisation, the War Dogs, to hunt down Priest. The War Dogs include Vagabond, formerly of Operation: Hellstrike, L7, a clone of Lethal, Kobold, a beastling from the same race as Troll, Wildhalf, a human spliced with Jakarran DNA, and newcomers Big Wreck, Uppercut and Safe. They join a massive manhunt with the likes of Bloodpool, Professor Night, Kid Supreme, Knightmare, Bloodwulf, and newcomer Fight List. Priest ends up taking refuge among the Red Dragon's Seven Deadly Sins, who turn him into the general of Hell's army. The Deadly Sins begin to spread their corruption across Earth, affecting, for one, the New Men. In Hell, the Red Dragon announces he plans to retire and summons Avengelyne, her friends Peter and Heaven, and the angel Passover. They team up with Bloodwulf as they try to escape Hell and make sense of whatever the Red Dragon's retirement "celebration" is.

Eventually, Lord Chapel arranges for his own resurrection by mind-controlling his son, Chapel Jr., and Troll, his time as a cavernous Fifth Century kobold with Bram the Berserker reinterpreted as him inhabiting the actual caverns of Hell. Badrock calls all past Youngblood members, including Scion, the evil Psi-Fire, as well as Bloodpool, the Maximage, Colonel Bravo, Link and Roman. Maximage warns that Lord Chapel threatens the structure of the universe, as he's ripped asunder age-old barriers between planes of existence that give untold horrors access to Earth. Lord Chapel conquers the world, and this aggravates a pre-existent rift that causes the multiverse to unravel, and a realingment to begin to take shape.

https://preview.redd.it/z1o6p5h7iktg1.png?width=831&format=png&auto=webp&s=3c6e9348e524ea63fd55e44e74210f1fb54b0cc6

Although Lord Chapel's conquest presumably causes the equivalent of an abrupt Revision, destroying this timeline, we do have a recorded history of what would have happened centuries into the future. Earth was to become an Empire that spread among the stars; in the 2040s, Youngblood, now called Youngstar and featuring a new Chapel called Cheryl Stinson and new alien member QuoXuo, would have defended the new lunar colonies. Using clones of Prophet as soldiers, the Earth Empire would have enslaved countless worlds, roughly 10,000 years after the present time. Fighting across planets and centuries, Diehard would have split into countless units, such as Diehard-Green, Diehard of Ironsand, ThinkHard, Darkard, Diehard Balbus, Diehard Laelius, and Diehard Trebonius. Great Grey Grandfather Jonathan Prophet would have led a rebellion on the Scale World which would have quickly spread, and killed the Earth Empire.

Around this time, Supreme would have died defeating an entity called the Grullcore. In order to survive the toll on flesh of deep space, Lady Supreme would have abandoned her human form to become a starship, with her clan and passengers becoming the woman armada Babel-Horolegion, and Lady Supreme becoming known as Lady Probably, powered by the corpse of Supreme and other super beings. Suprema would abandon her human form as well, becoming thought and light and ruling over a planet. Badrock would have grown in size and, reaching a meditative state, become a planet, seeking to be "one with the universe." His many children - Brainrock, Moorrock, Kit, Georgina - would try to follow in his footsteps. In the age following, the uprooted slave-races would have made Earth their own, but ancient Prophet soldiers would awaken from cryosleep, reawaken what would be left of the Earth Empire and restart the warring.

https://preview.redd.it/rx8dmjhpnktg1.png?width=1000&format=png&auto=webp&s=465ea583ba55f1cab12a74470141d30ba08f5f35

An unknown crystalline collective life-form, from a dimension outside of Earth-Normative space, would have entered reality and, across nine billion years, absorbed enough souls and minds to become a living nebula super-entity, driven by nothing but hunger. Sensing it as the true threat, the immortal Troll would psychically plead with both sides to forget their petty revenges, ultimately managing to awaken the gigantic Badrock, now tied to the fabric of the universe, and merge with him, destroying the crystal nucleus.

On Earth, the remnants of the Earth Empire would cross into the crystal's ur-space beyond reality using a shard left behind. They would have found Glory there, having transcended into the void between universes, where she would have been creating universes of her own. There, the crystals filled the void in between universes, and would eventually breach into Earth and destroy its spacetime. However, the Earth Empire's AI would have taken over Glory in order to make her destroy the rebel Prophets. Glory would have awakened her berserker state, destroying the crystals and crashing down to Earth-space. Almost immediately, Glory would have regained control, wiping away the remnants of the Earth Empire, and ending the war with the rebels.

https://preview.redd.it/pa1wp1y9iktg1.png?width=1000&format=png&auto=webp&s=d4d081002a8cfc9c20863220cf0655744332640a

Nine hundred years later, the mysterious Nu D'khay would have entered the "Bright War", and Arcadia, now a "Living Moon", would have "gone to sleep". Out of Badrock's children, Brainrock would have been the first to awaken tied to the universe. Two thousand years later, Earth would have been disassembled by a treasure fleet.

President Diehard

https://preview.redd.it/z3o63jtbiktg1.png?width=477&format=png&auto=webp&s=729e754a5ecb77d5fce48eb1aa2d4c756daeff0e

Back in the main branch of the Extreme Universe, Lord Chapel's conquest of the 2012 branch compromises reality, but only certain individuals, such as Cabbot, can sense it. Bloodstrike gains new members: Lady Bloodstrike, Alpha, Bella, and Bloodwulf. Alpha dates Tragedy Ann, formerly an enemy of the Re:Gex in the Alan Moore Revision, before they break up and she goes back to her villainous ways. Soon after, Bella, Deadlock and Shogun go rogue and quit the team to sell their abilities to the highest bidder in the private sector. Even later, Lady Bloodstrike goes rogue, too, hiring Tragedy Ann to ambush Alpha and cut off a genetic sample of his genitals. Lady Bloodstrike later kidnaps Twilight, kills her, and brings her back as an evil slave, using her to lure Professor Night into an ambush, intending to cut off his prodigious brain. With these body parts, and Supreme's invincible body, Lady Bloodstrike wants to create an army of the finest killing machines to take revenge against Project: Blood Again for forcing her into that life.

https://preview.redd.it/q372nlrciktg1.png?width=1000&format=png&auto=webp&s=a23f08937f3dc98d92592a145b7a6e45e80292ca

Meanwhile, a hacktivist group called the Bloodstream leaks all of Youngblood's files, exposing their history of criminal activity, illicit sex scandals, assassinations, and government cover ups, forcing the government to disband the team. In the aftermath, Shaft refuses to stop working under his codename, so he is imprisoned, Cougar passes away, Photon and Combat marry each other and achieve a galactic union between their planets, Diehard campaigns for and is elected as President of the United States, with Vogue as his First Lady, and Badrock retires, his body decaying from a new disease dubbed McCall's Syndrome. He buys the Youngblood trademark, hoping he can use it to create a legacy and be remembered for something more than "Yabba dabba doom" before he dies. Meanwhile, an unknown group removes Suprema from the Alan Moore Revision and places her on the current one, where no one remembers her or her brother, and she starts using his codename, Supreme.

When Cybernet, posing as the legitimate Brynetec, launches Help!, an app that allows anyone to request a superhero's help, they secretly use it to profile young vigilantes, proceeding to kidnap the best ones and sell them to terrorists. A Help! superheroine, Petra Gomez, notices her friend and fellow hero Man-Up is missing, so she puts together a new Youngblood team to take down Cybernet, with Petra acting as a new Vogue, a former hacker from Bloodstream, Dolante Murray, Supreme, and Doc Rocket. They gain Badrock's blessing and Shaft's support in the field, but President Diehard attempts to stop their vigilantism, sending Hardhard Drones against them and even tearing Shaft's left arm off. Ultimately, the new Youngblood stops Cybernet and their helpers, the Church of Chapel, and they rescue Man-Up, but Badrock's body is destroyed for good and from its shell Thomas John McCall emerges in a 16-year-old body. The new kids continue rescuing former Help! users who were kidnapped, operating from Tokyo with the help of Task. They defeat Bloodstream when they attempt to take down Youngblood a second time, and help contain Smash Junior, the grandson of Smash, an old foe of Fighting American. (In this Revision, the equivalent of Fighting American is named Captain Freedom.)

https://preview.redd.it/ku44cmzdiktg1.png?width=600&format=png&auto=webp&s=3d7db8a2a513e75dc313d31a648e8c53ef96bc58

After some years, the Japanese team disbands, Diehard ends his Presidential term and the Government makes Youngblood lawful in America again, bringing the core roster back together, including a Badrock who regains his rock-hard shell, plus new units: the Blood Cel, with new members Brazen, Cargo, Raptyr, Energen, and Pulsar, and StarGuard, who represent Youngblood's interests outside of Earth, as the peace treaty with Katella falls apart following an Acuran attack on a Katellan Capital that violates their ceasefire. A resurrected Cougar works within this Division. The son of Chapel leaves the Secret Service to join Youngblood as a superhero. Alan Moore's Suprema vanishes, and in her place new Revisions of Suprema, Supreme and Kid Supreme appear, the three reimagined as cousins. This incarnation of Ethan Crane is pansexual, having dated the historical Persian King, Xerxes.

Somehow living to the present day, Xerxes finds out the Keep are coming to Earth to harvest Nu Genes again, and attempts to escape back to the past of the year 33 AD, teaming up with Shaft's time traveling dad, Colonel Bravo, and the mysterious Nu Gene Vandel. They plan to mass-displace inhabitants of Jerusalem from the past in order to take their places on an equivalent volume, but they're opposed by the combined forces of Youngblood, the Supreme family, and Roman and his cousin Coral.

The same day, the Keep arrive on Earth, promptly conquering it, crumbling nations and enslaving manking with the help of the New Men, who switch sides to obey their ancestral masters. The Keep's Shepherd murders the Nordic god Thor, and they hijack Diehard, using him to power their fleet and a host of evil Die-Hard bots. Shaft loses his right arm, but replaces it with a gold prosthetic. Brigade coordinates an underground resistance for two years with the help of a new Maximage, taking refuge on the prehistoric, tropical pocket dimension of Arcadia. The resistance is forced to team up with many of Youngblood's former enemies - Arcadia's tyrant, Tyrax, Loki, brother of Thor, Darkthornn of D'khay, and Lord Chapel.

Last Blood

https://preview.redd.it/dgrbv46fiktg1.png?width=600&format=png&auto=webp&s=9256f75287c8946137cc0f21c4bd3e04a09210e9

In the near future, Mean Supreme takes on the name Imperator and his corrupted Supremacy attempts to take over America, causing a civil war. The President authorizes emergency powers and seizes the government; after a 1000-days war, the United Nations is dissolved, replaced by something called "The Sovereign Accord", which outlines only five nations control the geopolitical structure with a world police. The Supremacy's rule establishes a ruling caste of superhumans dubbed the Heirborne, with one of them named the Magistrate, but there's a resistance underground, with Vandel among these freedom fighters.

Roman's Neuport becomes one of the last strongholds of heroes. Roman, his people, Brigade, Glory, and Duel, formerly of the resistance against the Infinite, fight against Imperator and the heroes they've corrupted - Greylore of the Berzerkers, Cabbot Stone, Bloodwulf, and new player Mighty Ion.

Bloodstone gains a new power to literally turn into stone, but he is imprisoned alongside Captain Freedom, the original Kayo, and Atlas, an old member of Brigade. Gaining a conscience, Cabbot hires master bowman Bo, who frees Bloodstone and the other prisoners before reuniting them with Cabbot, the rest of Bloodstrike, the Berzerkers, a redeemed Greylore, and Prophet. Prophet explains his daughter Joanna is with his team, and pleads for Bloodstone and his resistance to join them in changing tactics to prevent this future from happening altogether.

Meanwhile, Doom's IV searches for the Book of Judgment in Thule. An opposing force, also seeking the Book, frees the evil Prince Genocide of planet D'Vor, one of the first enemies of Brigade. The Star Command, led by one Major Vance Victor, chases after Genocide, who lands on Earth, where he's opposed by the heroes who originally defeated him decades ago: members of Brigade and D'Vor's freedom fighters, the Birds of Prey.

And that's the story thus far. Can't wait to see how it continues!

Continued from Part 2...

• Part 1

Blue Rose Extreme

This revision, perhaps more than any other, requires an introduction. It first appeared in the issue of Supreme immediately following the end of Alan Moore's Revision, 2012's Erik Larsen's Supreme #65. It was part of a publishing initiative that relaunched a number of Extreme titles, including Glory, Bloodstrike, Youngblood and Prophet, with only Bloodstrike referencing the events of Supreme in any way. This was simple enough to follow until the publication of 2014's Warren Ellis' Supreme Blue Rose, which presumed to be a new direct sequel to Moore, with both Larsen and Ellis claiming to show what happened to the character of Alan Moore's Ethan Crane. As a reader, one must read both series as if they counted equally.

Things got really chaotic with the release of 2019's Brigade #1, which revealed the 2012 publishing initiative to have taken place in an alternate Earth. Because the narrative of Larsen's *Supreme (*and 2012's Bloodstrike by proxy of referencing Supreme) follows immediately from Alan Moore's Revision, they can't be part of the alternate bubble the 2012 titles were secluded off to.

What follows is an attempt at reconciling the narratives of Larsen and Ellis's Supremes as best as possible.

Backstory

The backstory of this new Revision combines elements of both Rob Liefeld and Alan Moore's Extremes; on one hand, you have Liefeld-exclusive characters appearing such as Khylund, Prince of the Jakkara tribe of cat-people in Zaire, or the street-level vigilante Knightmare, but you also have Moore-exclusive elements such as the World War II superhero team being named the Allied Supermen of America, and these separate elements are intermingled for the first time.

https://preview.redd.it/5lj2udyjyusg1.png?width=693&format=png&auto=webp&s=229bb5f1f99dde9adfad2f99d754f458d89068d7

Some elements are brand new: Cabbot Stone used the name Slingstone, fighting enemies such as the Gecko and the Lacerator in 1967 before joining a team called the Young Americans with Skipper, Suprema, Twilight and Kid Achilles. They fought enemies such as Doctor Moth, Quasimodo, and Dober-Man and his Dog Soldiers. Suprema is revealed to have had her first kiss from Twilight in a moment of experimentation.

Cabbot led Bloodstrike after his death and resurrection via Project: Born Again. Unlike in the Alan Moore Revision, his death did not come from the Hieropanth, but from taking a bullet meant for someone else in a selfless act during the year 1983.

Nu-Genes are no longer called Re:Gexes, and are sometimes called by a new term, "H.E.s" (Human Enhanciles).

The menace of Mean Supreme

https://preview.redd.it/nsm2rubpyusg1.png?width=728&format=png&auto=webp&s=03a3decc7300cc31b1829a78fc8eae7992673933

The violent trigger that caused this Revision creates a damaged reality, with time being an unstable bubble whose radiation, if mapped out, forms the shape of a blue rose. Due to the error, several individuals from the Alan Moore Revision still persist here, including Suprema, Supreme, his girlfriend Diana, his foe Televillain, and his Allied Supermen teammates Jack O'Lantern, Doc Rocket, and Storybook Smith. Supreme attempts to save civilians from the falling debris of the Supremacy, but after failing to save everyone, he lashes out in grief and locks his Ethan Crane persona away, secluding himself as he feels a white guy who doesn't know anything shouldn't be an interventionist god for the world. He hides with a Judith Jordan from an unidentified previous Revision.

The few survivors of the Supremacy from older Revisions - the original Supreme, 1950s Supreme, Squeaky the Supremouse, and 1970s Sister Supreme - have to wrestle with finding a place in a world that is not their own, especially after they're depowered, and even as they have to stop Rob Liefeld's Supreme, who goes on a violent rampage across the world. Dubbed "Mean Supreme", he fights famed hero and father of Invincible, Omni-Man, as well as Khromium, somehow the son of his old enemy Khrome from the Rob Liefeld Revision. After Mean Supreme brutally beats Suprema, her memories of the Alan Moore Revision fade away and she's replaced by her Blue Rose counterpart, so she abandons the cause of defeating Mean Supreme and seeks comfort from her trauma with her old Young American teammates.

At Bloodstrike, Cabbot is joined by a new Fourplay (bisexual woman Kennedy Marx), Deadlock (Samuel Christopher Hicks), Tag (a woman who believes herself to be Ventura Valentina Vlasco, but who has repressed memories of Youngblood members Shaft and Task, hinting at a buried real identity) and Shogun (Andre Xavier Lord). They fight enemies such as Cybernet, the Memphites, Quantum, The Quanta, followers of Quantum's ideology led by Synthesis; Hippo, the Black Bride, the Urban Knight, and a returned Doctor Moth, which prompts a reunion of the Young Americans. Meanwhile, the original Fourplay resurfaces after being believed dead and Project: Born Again's monopoly on the resurrection business is threatened by Leonard Noble, former Director of Bloodstrike.

The search for Ethan Crane

Fresh from the Blue Rose Revision, Darius Dax is reimagined as a Black man and CEO of a megacorporation, while employing individuals such as Alan Moore's Televillain and the Blue Rose Twilight, her superhero background seemingly overwritten by that of a normal, Black civilian. Lady Supreme is reimagined as Doctor Chelsea Henry, a lesbian physics professor at a New York University, and Doctor Wells as her Black colleague. Professor Night exists as a mere fictional TV show character, Khrome is not an alien, but the name of an Omegapolis hotel, and the headquarters of the Allied Supermen of America become a bar named Always.

Four months after the Supremacy's fall, the Blue Rose Darius finds Alan Moore's Supreme and kills him using a Sci-Fi gun found in the ruins of the Supremacy, triggering a new Revision.

Avatar Press and Arcade Comics' Extreme

https://preview.redd.it/hxzbj4rxzusg1.png?width=600&format=png&auto=webp&s=16e6b78c8b7e4b179af85ee20c4a541ff162bfb0

In this era of sporadic publications, the Allied Supermen of America are renamed as the Liberty League and Fighting American is replaced by the Free Agent.

Operation: Knightstrike exists before Youngblood instead of simultaneously, and the leak of Knightstrike's black-op assassinations to the press forces the Pentagon to create Youngblood in an attempt to improve their public image and distract the public. Once again, Alexander Graves is human rather than a disguise of Lucifer, and he gets the name for the team from catching a song in the radio from the real-life band The Youngbloods. Riptide's granter of powers is renamed from Sea Witch to Witch of the Green. Several core moments from Rob Liefeld's Revision, such as Battlestone snapping during an Iraqi mission and killing a clone soldier, or Quantum's escape and defeat by both Youngblood and the New Men, are simplified, with both happening in the span of a few days in Youngblood's first year. The cloned troops are reimagined as regular humans deployed so that troops wouldn't feel inadequate in the "age of super-humans", and Quantum's attack is his debut, not a return. In this iteration, Johnny Panic sleeps with men, and Psi-Fire and Sentinel never turn to evil.

In the present time, Avengelyne teams up with Avatar Press's Pandora, Coral, Onyx and Shi, fights the group of vampires known as the Ravening, is transported through time to 92 AD's Rome, where she opposes Emperor Domitian and the demons Beset, Vulcan and Nero, and visits the world of sword and sorcery known as the Dragon Realm. The Coven's Spellcaster faces Avatar Press's Scythe and her evil sister, Eden. Meanwhile, Coven member Fantom fights her evil brother, Darkwolf, and her evil ex, Stalker.

Eventually, super-teams quickly multiply, super-powered body parts became readily available for sale and crime is almost wiped out. Heroes descend into debauchery, losing themselves in party and riches, wondering how to find their ethical inspiration again. No longer teens, the former Youngblood members are surprised when the gravy train they had at 16 stops going on, and Badrock tries to keep a middling acting career afloat. Shaft is forced to work for a company run by Troll where he manages dozens of capes and pays them in exchange for getting to be credited as the savior of each heroic act in the news. They soon hear Alexander Graves is putting a new Youngblood team together. A legion of old members show up to the meeting, where Grave announces they'll be doing Multiversal missions in an initiative coordinated with the Youngblood teams of 999 parallel realities, but they've only got room for one new member, and the old heroes must kill each other until only one remains to prove their worth. In short succession, Knightsabre murders former Brigade member Seahawk, Badrock kills Photon, Twilight kills Troll, and Suprema kills Johnny Panic, Combat, and Twilight. While this is taking place, Mean Supreme takes over the Supremacy, turning the Supremes to evil and triggering a Revision.

Like in previous Revisions, this erases events that were fated to happen years in the future; in this case, the United States was going to begin annexing other countries as new States, slowly becoming an Empire, and this Empire's Youngblood was going to clash against their United Kingdom counterpart, The Crown. In this future, Diehard and Vogue had two children, Mikhail and Anastasia.

Even further into the future, Kaboom's Brigade team was going to be corrupted by The Zang, and the teen heroes would have renamed themselves Nitros, taken on villanous, new personas, and attempted to take over the world, clashing with a plethora of heroes from the Multiverse, among them Lady Supreme, the League of Infinity, the Cyberpunx, Sword and Stone, Joanna Prophet, and Jeriko.

Continued from Part 1...

Alan Moore's Extreme Universe

The next version of the universe eschews its Christian roots; this time, the Big Bang is a mystical phenomenon called the Kaboom Cycle, and each cycle is protected by warriors named Kaboom who do battle with each other using gloves called The Pair which tap into the cycle's energy. These roles are passed from generation to generation for all eternity. Humanity was not created by God, but by alien beings known as The Company, who planted the seeds of humanity and their version of the Nu-Gene, this time called the Re:Gex. The Company created the races of demons, angels and even this iteration of God. The parting of the Red Sea, traditionally attributed to Moses, is actually caused by a time-traveling Supreme, who also sets a bush on fire using his heat vision, making Moses believe he found God. At Mount Sinai, it's The Company's aliens who give Moses his Ten Commandments.

Golden Age

https://preview.redd.it/gnaujuuaj9sg1.png?width=989&format=png&auto=webp&s=1ed367776680110754f1260f0c1e2bdce72ea2a0

Amazonia, now called Ultima Thule, is the birthplace of Glory yet again, but her mother Lady Demeter is reimagined as the actual goddess Demeter from Greek myth, and her father's underworld as the actual Greek Underworld ruled by Hades. Hermes, God of Language, invents the Book of Judgment, a tome that contains all stories that were or will be, placing it in the world of matter so that, when life arises, it will have meaning.

As The Book makes the history of the world unfold, Troll is reimagined as an actual kobold from the Fifth Century who befriends a Conan the Barbarian-like figure named Bram the Berserker and eventually obtains the Book of Judgement. The Maximages are reimagined as Earth's sorcerer supremes, existing in every era; one of the first is Merlin, who wins the Book of Judgment in a game of cards and re-writes pages of it to manipulate his stooge Arthur into becoming King of Camelot.

This iteration of the Wild West is populated with cowboy superheroes, such as Kid Thunder, Brimstone Kid, and the Lonesome Rider.

The 20th Century sees the appearance of the Tarzan-like Zantar, White God of the Congo; in the 1920s, Prophet, cycling through time like his previous iteration, becomes known as the Man of Marble, a Doc Savage-like figure.

Ethan Crane is no longer the son of a Priest, instead born to two farmers in the rural town of Littlehaven. Doctor Wells, who originally tortured Ethan into becoming a super soldier, is now Littlehaven's local professor (even as he still comes from the future and created Prophet), and Ethan gains powers after he and his dog are exposed to the radiation of the mysterious Supremium meteorite. Kid Supreme is no longer the name of a sidekick, but the identity Ethan uses during his youth; Radar, for his part, helps Kid Supreme as the Super Hound. Ethan's arch-enemy is named Darius Dax instead of Zachariah Grizlock, and Kid Supreme makes super-powered friends in the League of Infinity, a team of teenage heroes from across all time periods. After becoming of age, Ethan moves to Omega City, renames himself Supreme, his adopted sister Sally becomes Suprema, and the two watch over the city in their floating Citadel Supreme. Supreme imprisons his foes in the Hell of Mirrors, actually the land of Wonderland from the Alice in Wonderland series of books.

During World War II, Supreme and Glory join the Allies, now renamed Allied Supermen of America, alongside others like Roman, Diehard, Mighty Man or the Batman-and-Robin pastiches Professor Night and Twilight, the Girl Marvel. Glory dates the Steve Trevor-like Trevor Tracy, Supreme, President Kennedy and fellow Goddess Hermione Sweetlove, unbound in her sexuality.

Sam Smith, mascot of the Roarin' Roughnecks, a pastiche of Sgt. Fury's Howling Commandos, ends up with The Book, and he rewrites it to make himself into the superhero Storybook Smith, as well as give himself a wife, impregnating her in a form of existential rape. They birth a girl named Leanna, future Riptide, member of Youngblood.

The idealistic Allied Supermen disband in New Year's Eve, 1949, after a vision shows them the 50s will be plagued by nuclear panic, rampant corruption, drug-abuse, racism, materialism, porn, unemployment and mental illnesses. During the 50s, Fighting American fills the void of crime-fighting against the Soviet menace.

Silver Age

In the 60s, the Allied Supermen regroup to defeat the alien menace of Florax, deciding to stick together under the new name of the Allies with new members such as Spacehunter, a Martian Manhunter-like character.

In 1968, Darius Dax dies of cancer from Supremium exposure. Upon his death, a memoir he wrote in prison is sent to Supreme's love interest Judy Jordan, and micro-machines inside it erase her consciousness and install a copy of Darius'. Using Judy's body, the villain bids his time.

The next year, Supreme's foe Optilux ascends into a higher plane in what looks like an act of suicide. This, on top of Supreme's parents passing on, and "Judy" learning karate and becoming involved in women's rights, make Supreme decide to abandon Earth to find himself. Suprema takes over her brother's role protecting their city, but less than a year afterwards, Gorrl, the Living Galaxy, threatens the Milky Way unless it can find a suitable human companion. Suprema must marry it, and they disappear into a black hole. In 1970, the Allies break up. Optilux, seeking to turn all the material universe into light for religious purposes, kidnaps almost every active hero remaining to use as batteries, and human society looks mundane again. In Space, Supreme undergoes a psychedelic experience when he uses his will supreme to draw back the curtains of his nature as a comic book character, the shock of which leaves him amnesiac and drifting for years.

Dark Age

https://preview.redd.it/6rypn9oxj9sg1.png?width=995&format=png&auto=webp&s=50971e87e8f7942f932ed2c5f8d786c94e373ab1

Marcus Langston is a poor kid living among criminals. When his father steals the Book of Judgment, Marcus rewrites it to prevent dying from an overdose and he writes himself into becoming Sentinel, the first modern hero and founding member of Youngblood. In this Revision, the Diehard who is a member of Youngblood is not a new individual, but the same who fought during World War II. However, Sentinel doesn't stop his rewrites there, giving himself a wife in another act of existential rape and making Youngblood's missions nastier, shadowier and more violent, drawing forth a Dark Age.

Like in the previous Revision, Operation: Knightstrike is founded, as well as Bloodstrike, once again led by Cabbot Stone. For the first time, we see a cause of death that led to his resurrection via Project: Born Again: a monster called the Psychopanth. The New Men come to be.

Eventually, Supreme finds his way to Earth in 1996, when the Revision first happens, the previous history only now popping into existence. Supreme manages to defeat Dax in Judy's body; to his surprise, the battle ends with Dax falling backwards through time, becoming the Supremium meteorite that first gave him his powers. Supreme saves Judy's consciousness in a robotic replica of her original body, and he finds a new girlfriend in Diana Dane. When Cabbot Stone attempts to escape the Bloodstrike program, he and his girlfriend Yuki are killed, but Cabbot's resurrection is botched and he comes out as a slow, mangled thing resembling Frankenstein's monster. He's ordered to hunt down his original squad members, who have gone rogue after faking death via clones.

During a Youngblood barbecue at Sentinel's house, Riptide recognises The Book of Judgement that used to belong to her father and steals it. Sentinel kills her for it, unknowingly fanning a centuries-old family feud, as Sentinel's ancestor was Kid Thunder, an escaped slave, and Riptide's was Deliverance Drue, a puritan adventurer and a Solomon Kane pastiche who died cursing the Langston bloodline over ownership of The Book. In the ensuing trial, Knightsabre is revealed to be Alexander Graves' son, as Youngblood's Director is fully human in this continuity. Sentinel is found guilty, but Youngblood's funding is cut and they are ordered to disband due to the impact to their public image. With Sentinel's influence over, the world is able to move onto a new era of unlimited possibilities.

Modern Age

https://preview.redd.it/fyos3y05k9sg1.png?width=950&format=png&auto=webp&s=19d113d2c371e599857003b5ba909c354ddc829f

Shaft is approached by Waxey Doyle, a retired 1940s super hero, who convinces him to let him fund a new incarnation of Youngblood in order to relive his youth by proxy. The new team is mostly teenagers, comprised of Doc Rocket, speedster and granddaughter of World War II's Doc Rocket; a grown-up Twilight; Johnny Panic, son of Darius Dax; a returned, unaged Suprema, and Waxey's adopted son and genius builder of giant robots, Big Brother.

Fighting American resurfaces in modern times, gaining a sidekick in S.P.I.C.E.. The Allies reform with Thor among their ranks. The New Men are folded into the Conquerors of the Uncanny, a Challengers of the Unknown-type team. Geof Sunrise and Kyra Knight become the latest Kabooms, trained by The Zang, a Kaboom wielder from the future. The Coven, a group of witches, devils, vampires and descendants of the Biblical Abel debut, dedicated to securing mystic artifacts that would change the world forever if fallen into the wrong hands. Avengelyne has everything she knows about God's origin proven to be wrong as she's captured by The Company's ruler, Sharpe, and she helps Re:Gex, an underground resistance against the Company's upcoming harvest. A new, short-lived Brigade debuts, consisting of former Youngblood Badrock, the Kabooms, former New Woman Dash, S.P.I.C.E., and the Kid Supreme of the previous Revision, Danny Fuller. Wanting to understand mortality, Glory begins sharing a body with human Gloria West, a schizophrenic waitress, but Glory's arch-enemy, Lilith, tricks Gloria's boyfriend into making her take anti-psychotics, sending Glory's possession into disarray.

Ultimately, the Darius Daxes of past Revisions realize all their old rivals, the Supremes, have been persisting in a limbo of their own, and launch an attack against their Supremacy. This catastrophic attack triggers a new Revision.

Like in previous Revisions, this erases events that were fated to happen years in the future; in this case, Prophet was going to awaken 25 years into the future, where he would be tasked to save the world with the help from his newly-revealed clone-daughter, Joanna Prophet from the year 3025.
