A comic in my Revert Au.

Meranno was Ellis's first follower. Always there, always supporting. But being a sceptic, he began to doubt. And then he dissented.

It's set in 15th year of Ellis's cult. Still the begings and they've come a long way since then, but Ellis was always more cautious around Meranno after that.

But even despite that he was always the most loyal A bit dialouge heavy, but I think this bit is important to understand their relationship and how Lamb interacts with his followers a bit more

1945 Captain America: Super-Axis 

Need a better title…

We open with the scene from Captain America: The First Avenger, where SS officers demand to see Schmidt as the Führer wants the tesseract weapons for regular soldiers, not just Hydra. In addition he is worried about the growing threat that Schmidt poses.

Here we see that he means to conquer the world, including Berlin. He kills the officers, shocking Arnim Zola.

This scene would be cut from CA:FA and put here instead as, up till now, he has had the support of the Nazi party.

He now needs to bring his plans forward before he loses the element of surprise. He goes to visit Lady Lotus.

She has Hydra goons waiting on her, hand and foot. Schmidt remarks that she seems to be making herself very comfortable (implying that she is mind controlling them (which she totally is)). She says if she's going to be stuck with Hydra she may as well make the most of it.

Schmidt asks her to enact the next phase of their plan as the murdered officers will be missed soon and the Nazis will investigate their "disappearance". They can't allow any disruption after all they have worked for. She reminds him that it is not her plan. He says her parents are not safe in the internment camp so she should do as she is told. She agrees through gritted teeth.

She has installed sleeper agents at the London SSR base and also in Talokan. They had been in Hydra's custody but were 'liberated' by the allies and Invaders in the previous movie.

She activates them by psychically reciting a series of seemingly unconnected words to them, similar to Captain America: The Winter Soldier. This means she doesn't have to control them all the time they just follow more general psychic instructions (e.g. you work for Hydra now).

The brainwashed Talokanil free the captured Meranno and Krang who lead them in an assault on Talokan. Namor, Namora and Attuma lead a resistance. 

The brainwashed SSR agents free the captured Warrior Woman and Master Man who lead them in an assault on the SSR base in London. Agent Carter, the Human Torch and Howard lead a resistance.

Meanwhile Captain America and the Howling Commandos have just gone radio silent as they hunt down Zola, who is still on the Hydra train. The train scene proceeds as per the movie. Bucky is lost.

After 3 films showing Bucky and Steve's friendship, the fall will have more emotional weight.

Not knowing who is friend or foe, Namor's Tri-Team are forced to flee Talokan. They head to London.

Steve and co arrive at the SSR base early on the second day of the siege, Namor's team in the evening and turn the tide of the battle. Members of Super-Axis escape.

Peggy and the team are forced to fight their friends, some of whom are killed. Those who survive activate their cyanide capsules and die. The London base and the surrounding area is badly damaged.

This gives more urgency to the Zola interrogation scene and more poignancy to the blast damaged pub scene between Steve and Peggy.

Zola gives up Schmidt's last stronghold. The whole team head out there to stop him using his tesseract powered weapons of mass destruction on the world.

Steve gets them in and they spread out, looking for a way to defeat Super-Axis and stop Red Skull. Peggy and Jim find Master Man and Warrior Woman and a battle ensues. Jim goes toe to toe with Master Man and his personal squad of Hydra lackeys. Julia plays a game of cat and mouse with Peggy. It gets perilous for Peggy at times, but she is canny and manages to wound her with her pistol. Willie is bested by Jim again. Both the super soldiers retreat.

Steve and the Howling commandos are mopping up Hydra minions and pursuing Red Skull.

Howard and the Tri-Team find Lady Lotus with her brainwashed Hydra goons. Attuma and Namora easily defeat the goons. A furious Namor tries to kill Lady Lotus (she cannot control him). She turns Attuma and Namora against him.

Howard calls for them all to stop and listen.

He manages to convince Namor that despite her actions she is also a victim of the Red Skull, that she's not really had a choice. That she told him at least part of the truth when they captured her before. That her parents really are interred in California and Schmidt has been using them as leverage.

Howard suggests releasing all the brainwashed Talokanil in return for her release. Namor cannot countenance this. Howard says if she removes her control, you can defeat Meranno without fear of harming your people. He tells him about the harrowing scenes at the SSR base and the cyanide capsules.

Namor says he cannot let her go after what she has done.

Howard says why would she release your people if you don't. 

Namor thinks. He says if she betrays him he will find her and kill her.

She releases Namora, Attuma and all the others. We have a very brief scene of Meranno, about to have himself crowned king of Talokan, being turned on by dozens of formerly brainwashed subjects. He flees.

Lotus says what about my parents? 

Namora says, why not get them yourself? There aren't many who could stop you.

She says what about Red Skull?

Howard says leave Red Skull to us.

Steve meets up with Peggy and Colonel Phillips in the hallway as per the movie and they get after Schmidt, Steve stowing away on the plane.

Meanwhile, Meranno has arrived and joined up with Super-Axis and the remaining Hydra soldiers. The SSR team converges on their position. We cut back and forth between their battle and Steve's infiltration of the plane.

The fight between Cap and Skull should be huge as this is the last time they will fight.

Peggy manages to finish what she started and caps Julia (not before kicking some SSR butt though). Willie tries to get to her and gets caught in the crossfire. As she dies, Julia calls him an idiot.

Willie appeals to Jim as they were friends. Jim is conflicted as he has the real Jim's memories, but ultimately decides that that isn't really him and leaves Master Man to die alone. Meranno and the other Hydra forces are holding their own, but then the pursuing Talokanil turn up and the base is overrun.

Red Skull acidentally makes himself disappear with the tesseract at the climax of the battle. Steve takes control of the plane.

Peggy joins him on coms. Crash. Downer.

Red Skull has now been an impressive antagonist 3 times in a row for Cap, much better.

1st Post credits:-

We see an older Japanese American couple playing Go while others internees mill about and chat etc.

We see the guard outside wandering off.

We zoom out and see ALL the guards wandering off.

We see the residents start to realise something is going on. They look out the windows. The older couple look up momentarily but then continue their game.

We see Lady Lotus enter and say (in Japanese), "Nothing ever interrupts your Go game, does it…"

They finally look up and see who it is, their daughter.

"Hasu chan!"

They embrace. Everybody else crowds around. She smiles and says (in Japanese), "Let's go"

"How much do the lives of your own people matter?"

"They mean... everything."

"I am the son of both the Land and Sea. He [Meranno] mocks the color of my skin and says that Atlantis shouldn't have a Half-Breed Freak on the throne. He is not alone in that."

"I lost my people once. I was a King without a Nation, A protector with no one to protect. Few things can hurt me, but that..."

INVADERS #38-41 (1979): 1st U-Man, Lady Lotus; series ends

INVADERS #38-41 (1979): 1st U-Man, Lady Lotus; series ends

The series (finally!) ends.  in issue #38, the Liberty Legion returns and, together with The Invaders, they take on domestic Nazis led by…  …U-Man… …And Lady Lotus. U-Man also calls himself Meranno. It’s pretty unusual for a new character to be introduced with two names. Baron Blood returns. As do Master Man and Warrior Woman. Together, they all form the New Axis. It ends with the reader…

⍔ The daughter of an Atlantean man and a surface woman, Aquaria Neptunia was nicknamed “Namora” in honor of her cousin Namor. Born in Maritanis, she later emigrated to Lemuria after Maritanis was destroyed by nuclear weapons. During her early adolescence, Namora moved to the Atlantis Antarctic capital with her father. When she was initially introduced to Namor, the youthful prince of Atlantis did not have any interest in hanging out with a girl. Forced by his mother Princess Fen, Namor took Namora out with him to play with his cousin Byrrah and his friend Meranno. When exploring a sunken submarine, Namor found himself caught in a torpedo tube, and learned a lesson in humility when Namora proved to be the only one with the strength to free him. Thereafter, Namora earned Namor’s respect and the two spent much of their early adolescence together. Sometime later, Namora joined Namor and Byrrah on a trip to the surface where they explored the abandoned Antarctic town of “Little America”. While exploring one of the cabins, Namora accidentally knocked over a can of kerosene causing a massive fire that threatened to burn her alive. Luckily, Namor rescued her using his unrealized strength. However, soon afterword, Namora and her father left Atlantis again.

⍔ Namora was one of several heroes active during the Golden Age of comics who later reappeared in the Modern Age. During the Golden Age she had her own 3 issue mini-series in 1948, and many guest appearances in other titles, especially Sub-Mariner, up until 1955.

⍔ Namora made her permanent return for real in the Agents of Atlas mini-series in 2006, in a story inspired by the alternate reality story in What If? (1977) #9. She continued as a member of the Agents of Atlas team in its successive restarts, and was later ret-conned to have participated in an early form of the Avengers.

⍔ It is no secret that Namora has always had feelings for Namor, despite the fact they’re cousins. She admitted that she harbored feelings for him around the time of her marriage. She has also shown feelings for Hercules during the times they have spent together, though she was unwilling to take his feelings seriously due to his bragging about being with various other women. It was recently revealed in Fear Itself - The Home front, that she has been in a relationship with Jimmy Woo for an unspecified period of time. This fact is unknown to the rest of the Agents of Atlas.

⍔ Powers:

➞Namora is biologically half Atlantean and half human with a mutant X-Gene. With that, she all the natural abilities of both, though due to her hybrid/mutant nature many of her natural abilities are far greater then any average Atlantean or human. As an Atlantean she has numerous super attributes including:

➞Limited Invulnerability: Highly durable-skin extremely tough. Withstands bullets, missiles and deep sea pressures with ease

➞Sub-mariner: Namora’s Atlantean heritage grants her multiple underwater super attributes. She can Swim at incredible speeds, immune to cold and pressures of the deep seas, able to see clearly in water whether murky or not & her strengths and health are naturally replenished in water. However on land it isn’t at his best.

➞Longevity: Namora ages at a far slower rate than most due to her Atlantean nature. Already over half a century old, Namora’s appearance still resembles(mirrors) a woman in her twenties..

➞Enhanced Physical Attributes: Namora’s speed, reflexes,strength and endurance are greatly enhanced especially when underwater. Her skin is unable to be penetrated by bullets; for her skin is extremely strong(tough)

➞Flight: Namora is able to fly through use of small wings below her ankles. These are naturally grown and normal to Atlanteans.

➞Telepathy:Namora has shown multiple instances that demonstrate a telepathic ability to communicate with whales. It remains to be seen if this applies to all marine life.

⍔ Abilities:

➞Namora is trained in Atlantean combat methods and is primarily a unarmed combatant. Namora is also fluent in Atlantean. Lemurian and English languages.

⍔ Limitations:

➞Though she is able to live indefinitely on either land or in water, her Atlantean linage still requires water. The longer she is out of water the weaker she becomes. She must submerse herself in water periodically to retain and recharge her powers.
