The soldiers held their rank
Staring across the Incursion.
Staring into the void.
All was silent
The anger rose like a tidal wave.
As the warriors who could fly took to the air
A tsunami of capes and energy
Filled the skies on both sides.
One side held an infinite power
And had an army the size of several small countries.
The most dangerous stood near to the front line,
Impressive and horrifying in their mutated glory.
Behind them stood a legion of heroes
Who swore to avenge and protect Earth with their might.
Led by patriotic duty, and enforced with intelligence
With an iron garrison at their backs.
On the other side,
52 of the strongest beings from
Humanity and the galaxy
And from further beyond.
They had speed on their side,
And truth, gadgets and feminism.
Morality was their strong point,
Their foes had iron, but they had steel.
The soldiers held their rank
Staring across the Incursion.
Staring into the void.
All was silent.
Then Superman and the Flash said
“Hold my beer”
And that was the end of the matter.
