Description[]

When the alien demagogue Thanos used the power of the Infinity Gauntlet to erase half of the galaxy's population from existence, societies on Earth went through massive geopolitical upheaval. Many of the major powers united to embrace a "world without borders" initiative to help offset the massive strife. Five years later, Bruce Banner used the Infinity Gauntlet to reverse Thanos' efforts, and as such, millions of people suddenly re-appeared back on Earth; many of whom found themselves with a country or even a home. To ease the stress of this new dynamic, the Global Repatriation Council was formed.

Many in the world however, did not wish to see a return to a pre-Snap environment. Some, like Karli Morgenthau, sought to maintain the "world without borders" environment. As such, she formed a group of freedom fighters known as the Flag Smashers. Members of this group were able to enforce their creed by enhancing their own physical capabilities by way of a recreated version of the Super Soldier Serum, which was developed by a man named Wilfred Nagel. The group's efforts were secretly backed by a mysterious individual known as the Power Broker. Those who benefitted from the Super Soldier Serum found that it also altered their core personas. As such, Karli Morgenthau's passion to her cause was twisted to the point that the Flag Smashers ceased to act as revolutionaries and became terrorists.
