In 1992 Marvel Comics broke ground on its newest (And best in my opinion) line of books. Marvel 2099. The original line
up consisted of Spider-Man 2099, The Punisher 2099, Ravage 2099, and Doom 2099. The line did well enough to
deserve more books! Future versions of The Hulk, Ghost Rider, and The X-Men became part of the line. Towards the
end two more new series became part of the futurverse, Fantastic Four 2099, and X-Nation 2099. The line did well until
January 1996. At that time us 2099 fans on America Online heard terrible news from 2099 Line Editor Joey Cavalieri and
Assitant Editor Lia Pelosi. The news was that they had been fired from Marvel Comics, and that the entire 2099 line was
soon to come to an end. We were all devasted. To make things worse the line was indeed cancelled with all the series
finishing out their runs with new creative teams (The Old Teams left in the wake of Joey and Lia's firing). What followed was a
horrible series entitled : The World Of Tommrow also known to all us 2099 fans as simply WoT. That book has also
since been cancelled. But there is hope! Long before WoT ever hit the shevles us die hard 2099 fans decided to create the
UNDERGROUND (UG). What we have done is taken our favorite chracters and decided to continue 2099 by
writing them ourselves! We do this for no profit these books are free to all who want them. Its just us fans keeping our
favorite universe alive. Our line-up includes 2099 classics such as Spider-Man 2099 UG, Doom2099 UG, The Punisher
2099 UG, and X-Men 2099 UG. And brand new books such as Morbius 2099 UG, Thor 2099UG, Iron Man 2099 UG,
and Tales Of The Chicago Reserve 2099 UG!
