After Captain...Equestria? Yeah, let's go with that. After Captain Equestria's rousing assemblage, it was quickly determined that no one felt much like doing the painstaking reconnaissance of the Mane-iac's base, so Doctor Strange was pressed into the service of using his mystical powers (actually the Eye of Agamotto, but who cares?) to do it instead.
This revealed a small army of henchmen and a Mane Untidy-Inator, which was really just sad. I mean, Equestria's Mightiest Heroes against a Mane Untidy-Inator isn't much of a contest. Overkill, really. Still, our heroes had a good time of it, since it was a chance to get used to the permanency of their new identities (courtesy of the somewhat good Doctor, at Spike's insistence). Iron Spider ended up making an "I need an adult" joke, only to get the expected reply of "I am an adult!" The She-Hulk made a naughty tentacles wisecrack as well. Mane-iac leaves herself open to a lot of jokes.

Later on, our intrepid sextet, having left the comic book world, resolved to band together in times of crisis. Crises that would require them, of course, were thought to be rare. Little did they know what was just around the corner...

Also, Aristotle bought out the House of Enchanted Comics and started up an unofficial Equestrian branch of Marvel Comics through them. It brought in more money than he expected, though not much of a profit. Too cynical for most ponies.

Author's Note

Thus, the original team-up is over, and the foreshadowing is in place. I've had the next and last part of this story in mind for a few months now. For those of you who read these notes, here, to generate buzz, is the title of the next chapter: Crisis Crossover. The brainstorming for this arc actually began around December, when Rarity Takes Manehattan aired, which is another hint as to what's going to go down. After Power Ponies aired, I got the idea for the superhero thing, which dovetailed nicely with what I had already planned. If I pull this off, it will be a most glorious triumph of storytelling. Or I'll fail spectacularly. Either-or. Thus, I won't post anything for a while. The idea I have deserves nothing less than the best I have to offer. So, until then, be seeing you!
