== Sixties: A Mod Age Comin' ==

As a survivor of the most heinous act of Super Terrorism, the second Journey was bolstered by tremendous support. The government, sensing a chance to coalesce citizens, sponsored many of media program around posthumans and their necessity for protection of the united States. McCarthy had since lost power in a wave of Goodwill and Patriotism, quieting the boistrous senator. Still there was a small faction of the posthuman population who wanted liberty to express herself without governmental coersion.

Kid Caliber had since matured into a brilliant lithe 19-year old who rallied like-minded posthumans to his side, under the banner of a non-sanctioned government superteam, '''the Revolution'''. The roster included such celebrities figures as the '''Eco-Friend''', '''Free Spirit''', '''Chakra''', and '''Joker Wild'''. The team also boasted the first Alien superhero, '''the Stranger''', a green-skinned 5 foot tall spaceman with telepathic abilities.

The Journeyman sent millions of Tax-Dollars into the posthuman project and the Government created more posthumans themselves with J12.

That was until a mole smuggled it out of Prometheus headquarters in Haxton, CT. (circa 1960) The super-serum was sold to the highest bidder and immediately super-crime was sent on a massive surge.
The Vigilante teams formed in the fifites could do only so much with their skills, tactics, and themed gadgets.

The government quickly abandoned the J12 method for making posthumans and sought out other methods.
The Wastes (the destroyed area of Arizona) were producing monsters of unequalled might, and the Government, along with the Journeyman's help erected a massive wall around the area, dubbing the virulently verdant soil '''Ground Zero'''. Japan suffering repercussion for its attempt at Posthuman creation, sent most of the experimental failures to the compound, creating a freakish zoo of nightmarish and primordial monstrosities for none to observe but those with great fortitude.
