If your version of Wanda and Pietro weren't raised by Django and Marya Maximoff, why do they still have their adopted parents surnames? Shouldn't they have Magneto's family name?

Superman Red Son Redesign

I never understood why Communist Superman wore black given that red and yellow were the symbolic colors of the Soviet Union.

PS I loved both the Superman comic book and the film Red Son but I just couldn't get it out of my mind that Superman made no sense everything here seems more like his nazi overman version than a socialist version of the man of steel

Nighthawk By Green-Mamba

Real Name: Kyle Richmond

First Appearance: The Avengers #69 (October 1969)

Orphaned as a child by in a racially motivated drive-by shooting, Kyle Richmond vowed to dedicate his life to stamping out white supremacy. Undergoing rigorous physical training and using his inheritance to craft an array of weapons and vehicles, Richmond became the Nighthawk, the vengeance against all who would prey on the disenfranchised.

The most controversial recruit of Hyperion's Squadron Supreme, Richmond had at first been a proponent of the Utopia Project, as he believed it was the best way to bring about the systemic change the world needed.

But when it came to forcibly reprogramming people, Richmond saw the potential it had to be used as a tool of oppression, and he left the Squadron a fugitive.

Joining together a group of like minded individuals who sought to put an end to the Utopia Project, their fight became a perilous one as the natural disasters caused by the untethering of their world with their counter-Earth worsened.

On the day of the alignment, when it was believed the two Earths would cross each other's paths in space, Richmond's redeemers intended to use the cover of the worsening earthquakes to take back the Squadron Supreme's headquarters, but fate took a different turn.

Expecting to find the halls empty as the Squadron was busy dealing with the latest natural disasters, Richmond instead found a bearded wizard in a red cloak battling to contain a giant man with green skin.

Wary of potential collateral damage, Richmond tried to intervene in their conflict before the sorcerer's dimensional mirror spell was shattered by the green goliath.

When he came to, Richmond did not find himself in the Squadron's headquarters, instead in the sorcerer's sanctum--on the counter-Earth.

It seems the sorcerer, who called himself Doctor Strange, was attempting to help the green man, called Bruce Banner, contain his anger in a phase shifted dimension, but they had accidentally ended up in the respective counter-Earth in doing so due to the alignment.

Richmond explained himself and the dire situation of his counter-Earth.

But with the alignment now passed and the unusual circumstances of the transportation not known, Richmond was now stuck in a different world as his slowly died, trapped under the tyrannical heel of the Squadron Supreme.

As Strange tries to help Nighthawk figure out a way back to his counter-Earth, Nighthawk joins his nascent Defenders team alongside the Hulk after learning that the Avengers had been hunting the green giant down for deserting them, which makes Nighthawk see the Avengers as little better than the Squadron Supreme.

Yep, another Squadron Supreme member.

Obviously if you're going to do a second one after Hyperion it has to be Nighthawk, the Squadron Supreme's answer to Batman.

But Nighthawk is a funny one--there are like at least four Nighthawks, all named Kyle Richmond, who have all had a prominent role in the Marvel comics at some point.

There is the original Squadron Sinister one who later became a hero and joined the Defenders, there is the actual proper Squadron Supreme one who lead the redeemers against them (and later died, passing his mantle to his son), there is the Supreme Power one who was a black man fighting against racists, and then there is the modern one from Mephisto's Squadron Supreme.

I decided to merge the first three together, he's a black man who fights against racists who joins the Squadron Supreme but ends up fighting against them with the redeemers and then ends up joining Doctor Strange's Defenders.

But that meant there was a lot to get through in the bio! I hope I hit all the main points.

So Nighthawk is actually the first person from Counter-Earth to cross over to the mainline Earth (as the Squadron Supreme is from Counter-Earth in my universe).

And if you're keeping track, my Defenders roster is Doctor Strange, Valkyrie, Hellcat, Nighthawk, and Hulk. This is the entire starting roster, if you're wondering.

Maybe I'll draw them all together in the future. I dunno.

But yeah. I think the two most well known looks for Nighthawk are the original Defenders' era's Nighthawk and the Supreme Power's Nighthawk.

So I tried to combine the two looks while also trying to make him look as much like Batman in silhouette as I could.

So he's got the dark blue with the yellow bird emblem and the wing like red cape of the original (plus the extendable claws!), as well as the scale armor and scary goggles of the Supreme Power's Nighthawk.

The added little "ears" on the side of the goggles help give him more of a Batman like silhouette, and yeah, I know hawks don't have points like that on their head, it makes him look more like an owl.

But that's okay.

The bird emblem took the longest to design, I originally tried to get it to look closer to his classic emblem but it just wasn't working out, so I took inspiration from Nightwing's emblem, what with the whole Batman connection.

And like I said with Hyperion, the Squadron Supreme are designed to look inherently less grounded than my normal Marvel designs, to help sell them apart.

Doctor Spectrum By Green-Mamba

Real Name: Josephine Ledger-Nenet

First Appearance: The Avengers #85 (February 1971)

The Prism was an object of immense power.

A metaphysical crystal made seemingly entirely of shards of impossibly warped reality, it was discovered in High Earth orbit in the space surrounding counter-Earth, alongside the shadowy wisps of human remains it clung to, the victim's body seemingly shifted and torn out of reality by the same forces that created the Prism.

The person who discovered it was NASA astronaut and former test pilot Josephine Ledger-Nenet.

Upon making contact with it, the crystal fused to Josephine's body and spoke to her.

The light of the Prism shone out like a lantern in brightest day and blackest night.

All of the refracted colors within were now hers to command, able to transform them into solid constructs limited only by the confines of her imagination.

The voice that spoke to Josephine was the collective minds and memories of all of the previous Prism holders, up to the latest named Kinji Obatu, whose remains the Prism was found clinging to.

It was their belief the Prism was a gift to be used in service of mankind, and Josephine agreed, becoming the superhero Doctor Spectrum and one of the first recruits in Hyperion's Squadron Supreme.

But the myriad of minds within the voice also believed the world needed saving from itself.

The destruction of counter-Earth was cyclical, and each previous owner of the Prism had been that cycle's Doctor Spectrum.

Obatu had tried to escape counter-Earth's orbit during the last reset, and the worsening natural disasters all around the globe were signs the next was coming.

Josephine saw the Utopia Project as their best bet in preventing the cycle from continuing as she assisted Hyperion and the rest of the Squadron in the total takeover of the planet.

Unknown to them, of course, is that the planet and the resets are all a grand experiment by the High Evolutionary, if you remember from his bio.

They eventually discover that the Prism is in actuality a remnant of each of the High Evolutionary's resets, a tear in the fabric of reality that has coalesced into a living capsule of the light and minds of the previous cycles.

It's been quite a while since my last Squadron Supreme member, but here's the third one I've done thus far, Doctor Spectrum.

Like a lot of the Squadron Supreme members, there are a lot of different interpretations of Doctor Spectrum across the comics, as the Squadron is kind of more of a concept than a consistent set of characters.

Doctor Spectrum is probably the most inconsistent and reinterpreted of the core Squadron members, so it was kind of tricky to figure out which direction I should go in for mine.

I ultimately decided to base mine mostly on the Joseph Ledger of the original Squadron and of Supreme Power's, as well as merging her with Hickman's more recent female "Nenet" version.

So mine is a woman named Josephine Ledger-Nenet.

I had this backstory in mind of her being a daughter of an American man and an Egyptian woman (Nenet is an Egyptian name), as well as her being nicknamed "Doc" due to her surgical like precision in her missions (which comes from Ledger's Supreme Power incarnation) but I had to leave them out of the bio just because it was already getting kind of long.

The mention of her being a former test pilot is a reference to the Green Lantern, of course, on whom Doctor Spectrum was based.

But I mainly decided to make the Power Prism (which I shortened to just "Prism") into an important keystone in the worldbuilding of my Counter-Earth (which is where my Squadron Supreme hails from), as a part of the whole cyclical destruction the High Evolutionary is doing to it. So, a lot going on here.

If you're the type who cares, the "first appearance" I've listed here is the first appearance of the heroic Joseph Ledger version, and not of the villainous Kinji Obatu of the Squadron Sinister, who was the actual first Doctor Spectrum who appeared two years prior.

But I did reference Obatu in the bio as the previous Doctor Spectrum that Josephine finds the Prism attached to.

Her design was... tricky. Doctor Spectrum's classic design is extremely flashy and colorful and pretty far removed from the Green Lantern' origins unlike the other core Squadron members.

I generally want my Squadron members to be less grounded than my typical GMU redesign but they still have to fit the aesthetic, and this was really hard to do.

I opted to go for an armored spacesuit of sorts that I kind of based on what I would imagine a Green Lantern might look like in my universe, and kept the four split colors from the classic look. But these colors combined with the black undersuit made her look like an Uno "Draw +4" card at times, haha.

So I made the white at the center of the costume into the Prism itself, with light and color radiating out onto the armor from it, which looked pretty neat and distinct.

I also ended up basing her hair and her mask on Nenet's from the comics.

Hyperion By Green-Mamba

Real Name: Mark Milton

First Appearance: The Avengers #69 (October 1969)

As sure as the sun rose in the West did Earth's greatest hero, the Hyperion, rise to defeat evil.

An extraterrestrial, he was sent to Earth from his doomed home planet as an infant named Zhib-Ran, the last member of his species, their final hope. There, he was found by his new Father, who named him Mark and raised him to be the best man he could be, while coming to terms with his alien power to absorb the energy of the sun, granting him unfathomable strength and superhuman abilities.

Taking the title Hyperion, he used these powers to fight for truth, justice, and the American way, and together with like minded heroes he formed the Squadron Supreme, a league of the bravest and boldest men and women on the planet.

Headquartered in America's capital on the West coast, they were Washington DC's finest heroes.

But over time, Mark felt that the Squadron was not doing enough to help their fellow man.

Supervillains they could put a stop to, but disease, natural disasters, poverty, hunger... these were out of their reach. Thus began the Utopia Project.

Lead by Mark, the Squadron agreed to take over the United States government by force and take the reins.

Forcibly reprogramming supervillains, wealth redistribution, and vast humanitarian efforts the world over were now all within their control.

But natural disasters across the globe were getting worse, not better, and there seemed to be no recourse.

It was not until the Squadron's greatest scientific mind, Thomas Thompson, made a breakthrough discovery did they have any clue to the worsening situation.

They were not the only Earth.

Theirs was an exact mirror image of another, a counter-Earth, inhabiting the orbital plane but phase shifted in such a way the two could never touch or see each other.

Something of infinite power had separated the two Earths in the long ancient past but also anchored them together, and it was gone now.

And it would be up to the Squadron Supreme to make first contact with their neighboring world.

So basically rather than from another universe, the Squadron Supreme come from Counter-Earth here.

The Squadron Supreme are a fun part of the Marvel universe, a really earnest pastiche of the Justice League, not mean spirited like some of the cross company parodies can be, and they've managed to remain relevant in many different incarnations throughout the years.

And obviously, if I am going to touch on the Squadron Supreme, that means Hyperion has to be the first to appear. I kept his same basic origin the same (which is... basically Superman's), though I'm not sure if he is an Eternal or whatever here like in the comics.

I'm leaving what he actually is unanswered for now.

My big change came from reimagining the Squadron Supreme as coming from Counter-Earth, which, while phase shifted out of Earth's view and touch, is technically in the same universe.

I left some clues to it being mirrored in my bio, with the sun rising in the West and what not.

Oh, and that "first appearance" listed there is actually the cosmic construct Hyperion that appeared in the Squadron Sinister, not the Mark Milton Squadron Supreme Hyperion that appeared two years later--but I did include a reference to the original Hyperion with his alien name of "Zhib-Ran," so you could consider this to be a combination of both versions.

For his design, I basically, uh, drew Superman? And then colored him like Hyperion? More or less.

I had originally based him on his black and gold color from Hickman's Avengers run, but eventually settled for his classic red and gold colors.

I deliberately tried to make him as a straightforward superhero, no reimagining his cape to be coat or civilian clothes or anything like that, the Squadron Supreme are just fantastical superheroes to kind of deliberately play against my (relatively) more grounded universe. I did decided to get rid of the outdated atom design for his chest emblem and switch it up to the astronomical symbol for the sun, you know, cause that's where he gets his power from.

This one had to be uploaded a little later in the day due to me being busier today than I had anticipated.

Thanks for your patience.
