I had a quick look on the Wayback machine and it was SHIELD Extermnation Force, rather than In The Name Of Science. Thanks though!

I'm just curious as to whether anyone remembers this Alternate title? If I recall, it was a SHIELD based X-Men title that had Rogue, and Archangel and Sunfire in it...Any thoughts? In The Name of Science is what I think it is. Pretty sure that was SHIELD: Extermination Force.

Yeah, Mark Walsh, IIRC. It was a fun little series. I feel like Brent Lambert wrote a story toward the end? I might not be remembering that right, though.
I've been thinking about porting over my World Without Heroes stories from Gary's defunct site. I have something like 18 issues of Abe Jenkins as Iron Man written there. Fun stuff.

Abe Jenkins FTW. Does Songbird appear in that series BTW?

I think you should definitely do that, Dave. I think World Without Heroes was an unsung imprint with a lot of really fun ideas!

Abe Jenkins FTW. Does Songbird appear in that series BTW? She does, toward the end. The series started with Abe picking up the armor after Tony's mind is uploaded to create Mainframe (from MC2 continuity), post Onslaught and the main heroes are gone. She shows up warning him about Zemo coming for him. Because bailed on Zemo and decided to become a hero, the Thunderbolts never got started, so Zemo is a loose cannon. It was a lot of fun to write, and I really enjoyed crossing over with Barry Reese's new Thor and CW Russette's Hercules stories. I wrote about 18 or 19 stories, and had about 12 more planned. I believe Ed had some stuff there, too? and Curt Fernlund wrote a pretty cool SHIELD series.

Nah, I just had some proposed weird-ass ideas about the Memetic Imprints of the disappeared heroes become a kind of Cultural Virus that infected people with beliefs, powers, or personality traits of disappeared heroes.
Usual sort of weird crap I pump out, with a kind of weird Illuminati trying to prevent all of this from happening and locating a cure, while the Ghost of Onslaught, imprinted onto the Mind-Reef of Earth is quietly chortling away and doing machiavellian stuff.

Listening to a lot of podcasts, in these trying times, I've gotten a bit obsessed with runs and/or creative teams that almost, but didn't happen.
I feel like, if we were all in a better place, it'd almost be worth it start an imprint where you would try and imagine what Frank Miller's Doctor Strange, John Byrne's Heroes for Hire or any of the 1,000 almosts that exist out there in the rumor-verse.

Weird idea here:
Secret Empire ended, but Doc. Ock secretly gets the Cosmic Cube while the heroes aren't looking as he uses the Pym Particles he stole and shrinks himself then enlarges himself to take the Cube to create a new world ruled by him.
AGE OF OCTAVIUS!!!
Ock would have Spider-Man as his enforcers, since he knows about the clones from the Jackal. He would bring back Prof. X as his eyes and ears, even as a weapon. It would be interesting to see Otto using the clone technology to bring back dead heroes and villains into his ranks.
That's just an idea.

Cool idea.
My only suggestion would be lose Professor X and keep all of Ocks' entourage spider-based.

I like the idea. It sounds like a What If..I say it since Uatu is at the beginning of my Champions. who would go against Dr Ock, or were you just giving an idea for a site event?

It would be Otto vs the whole Marvel Universe with the likes of The Avengers, X-Men and F4, but this was an idea if Secret Empire had an alternate ending and showed a world run by Otto Octavius.

So the big headed one, the Watcher, will be in it then. Are you going to write this or just throwing it out there? Its a very good idea.so much so that im afraid of reading the old posts on this thread, lol

It would be a great idea for a limited series down the road, and no Watcher.
