The superheroes are back in town! Five years after the events of Hypermen: Origins, a new threat brings back the original Hypermen - and some new ones - to protect Alpha City... and the world!
This story is set in the time period between the 1950's and the 1970's, known as the Silver Age of Comic Books. Just like Origins focused on WWII, this campaign will focus on things like the Cold War, Vietnam and the rise of counterculture, as well as fantasy and science fiction elements.
Previously...
Five years after defeateding the Axis Elite, the Hypermen have become the world's most beloved superhero team. As tensions between Russia and the US escalate, they start searching for new members. Three candidates appear: the wild mutant Lunx, the hero from another dimension Halberd and the fiery intergalactic protector Solar Flare. Darkstar and Alphaman test them in a battle against training robots, in which they succeed. As the veteran heroes are about to start the next test, though, an invasion by the alien Kaalax'taan Empire puts the tests to a halt as the old and new Hypermen spring into action.
