1906: The Earth (is) Not Hollow.
Intro: Subterranea is an underground kingdom that was originally home of the Deviants.
It concists of a planet-wide network of caverns deep beneath the surface.
At Monster Island, these tunnels reach to the center of the Earth!!
Ancient Lizard Men, Lava men & many monsters call Subterranea home.
Places of special interest are the areas of Abysmia, the Fountain of Youth, the cities of Lechuguilla & Meramec, the Valley of Diamonds, etc all of them are located down here...
History: 20,000 years ago, the city of Netheria witnessed a Deviant attack on Atlantis!
The Netherians responded by enclosing their city & fortifying their foundations.
When Atlantis sank, Netheria ended up even deeper in the Earth - coming to rest in the Netherworld!
The exiled Tyrannus stumbled upon the Fountain of Youth & came to rule the Tyrannoids!!
Much later, the Mole Man took over a large part of Subterranea - with the help of his Moloids & giant monsters.
Recently, this underworld has seen the rise of the Ani-Men, Mutates & others.
The F.F., the High Evolutionary, Mister Sinister, the Frightful 4, etc have all either visited there or have used these dark depths for hidden bases.
Subterranean War - After civil war 'hit' Deviant controlled Lemuria, Kro was nowhere to be found. So, Brutus assumed the empty throne!
He began reclaiming all lands once belonging to the Deviants - including Subterranea!!
This war spilled out onto the streets of NYC. But, it turned out that these 'invaders' were actually refugees!!
Investigating, the Avengers are all captured by Brutus's forces!
Tyrannus & Mole Man get Hulk's help - by kidnapping his friends, Rick Jones & Betty Banner!!
Attacked at the Fountain of Youth, Hulk triggers a rockfall, burying it!
Once Betty & Rick are safe, Hulk empties out the last of the Fountain's water & laughs as Tyrannus tries to lick it off the dirt floor!!
Then, Tyrannus convulses & dies! Because Brutus had poisoned the Fountain's water...
Meanwhile, an aged Kala seeks out Iron Man's help. But, they're attacked by the Outcasts & Kala's kidnapped!
Iron Man's able to rescue her at the city of Netherland.
The Deviants final attack uses the high tech Oscillatron, which can shatter whole realms apart...
But, the West Coast & Great Lakes Avengers defeat the Deviant forces.
In the aftermath, it's discovered that Brutus is actually a Mutate - passing himself off for a Deviant!
So, his own Mutates rip him apart!!
Author/Artist: Created by the team of P. Gustavson & R. Gill for Marvel Mystery Comics #10 in June 1940!

A Vosian princeling and Tarn's tiniest miner (they're best bros)
Some info about them:
-Starscream used to be a bratty royal from Vos, while his older sister Slipstream was the City's Commander. He lived a life of privilege and his main concerns were beating his own speed records and hanging out with Skyfire.
-When the Autobots unleashed the war throughout Cybertron, Vos fell quickly. Perhaps too quickly. Rumors of an inside job spread shortly after. Slipstream mysteriously disappeared when the fighting was at its worst, and Starscream became separated from his brothers amidst the chaos in the city.
-Star's memory files of whatever happened afterwards were corrupted. Next thing he knew, he was being pulled out of a pile of rubble by Soundwave and Shockwave. The life he had known before was reduced to ashes, along with Vos itself and he had the Autobots to thank for that. He joined the Cons right away, seeking revenge.
-D-16's origins are a complete mystery. Miners are mass-produced and have massive, bulky frames. They don't have a "sparkling" phase or are known to reproduce. Yet, Soundwave found him in drilling away in an abandoned mine while scavenging for Energon.
-As Soundwave has the habit of picking up strays, of course he dragged him back to base.
-Starscream's first real "mission" as a Decepticon was taking care of D-16, which he found humiliating. Soon enough tho, he became overprotective of the younger mech. He reminded him of his lost brothers.
