Welcome to the Penultimate Part of our Marvel AXIS Wars fighting game roster.
For those unaware, Marvel AXIS Wars is basically a Marvel Injustice Roster I came up with alongside some of you.
For context, here is the base roster, plus the first wave of DLC:
And here is all of the DLC characters:
All right, we've got a lot to cover in terms of reasoning.
Annihulus: Annihulus is here because I learned that Shuma-Gorath is a Conan the Barbarian character and is an alternate option if we can't get him.
Quicksilver/Moon Knight: The ultimate 6160 line needed a villain, and I wanted to keep the number of reps from each comic kind of fair, so Quicksilver took Moon Knight's spot on the Distorted Cosmos section.
From here on out, we'll be covering the Director's Cut Version, which means each pair of characters had a biased reasoning for joining.
Storm and Akuma: I love X-Men vs. Street Fighter, plus Storm, felt like one of those characters I'd get skinned alive for not adding.
Monkey King and Agatha Harkness: These two were from my first and second attempts of this roster way before I got a Tumblr. Monkey King was added as an oddball choice, and Agatha was chosen to return thanks to you.
Hank Pym and Super Skrull: There was an idea back in the early 2020s, where a group of remarkable people would come together to make a pair of fan made cinematic-esque universes. One and Marvel Universe, featuring a more detailed look at some of its classic, more underappreciated characters with Ant-Man as the figurehead. The other DC, because Warner Brothers kept messing up their cinematic universe, where I figured Martian Manhunter would head the franchise. Two friendly rival projects that came together to help each other and eventually would cross over.
However, if you remember, I said Ronan originally held this spot before Super Skrull. Why was that?
Because I figured that before Ant-Man would begin work, a testing ground would be needed to test the creator. Thus, the Kree Skrull Alliance was thought of. If you want an idea of the plot synopsis, it's basically if Romeo's best friend and Juilet's ex went on a buddy cop adventure where they had to save Romeo and Juilet's baby from Shakespeare.
The name of the projects would be called a Fanimated Universe, but has only been an idea floated around by me and a few other people. So tell me...
