Points of Interest[]
- Black Lagoon
- This is a swampy region in the Amazon River in South America. The cryptid known as the Gill-Man, or "Creature", is known to inhabit this area. Back in the 1950s, a team of scientists hired a steamboat to bring them down the river in search of the Gill-Man. They ended up getting a heck of a lot more than they bargained for.
- San Marco
- San Marco is a small independent nation located in South America. Magneto and the first Brotherhood of Evil Mutants stole a freighter and used it to invade San Marco. Mastermind used his powers of illusion to frighten the government officials into allowing the Brotherhood control of the country. The X-Men learned about the incident and came to San Marco, where they fought the Brotherhood inside of a castle. The building was booby-trapped with explosives, which were set off when the X-Men entered the place. During the chaos, the Brotherhood managed to escape. [1]
