History
Earth-8 is one of fifty-one divergent realities that branched from the core New Earth reality during the recreation of the Multiverse shortly following the events of Infinite Crisis. Its equivalent of Earth, the planet known as Angor, is under virtual global control by the United States of Angor, apart from an ominous "Russian wasteland". A few years ago, the Metahuman Act was passed by the United States government, requiring all metahumans to submit to official control or face legal penalties extending to brutal prison stays.
