We want YOU to protect the earth!

So here's the scenario.

DC and Marvel merge. Suspend disbelief for a second. The nations of the world got together and decided to outsource planetary defense to you.

You get:

1- an unlimited budget.
2- diplomatic immunity
3- a kickass car
4- Scarlett Johansson as your secretary, because lets face it you were thinking of it since you started reading

How would you best defend Earth. You can only pick one option

1) Buy a self replicating GLC ring from Ganthet, cause he didn't buy his Zamaron lady friend anything for valentine's day so he needed cash for some bling ASAP, along with a battery to start your own branch of the corps.

2) Make the Worldmind your ***** and relocate the Nova corps to Earth.

3) Shield - whatever it is they do

4) Subcontract to Von Doom

Lets assume that this happens somewhere before Zero hour and WWH respectively for each of the big events. You have no knowledge of the things that are going to come your way, only that Earth gets invaded way more than any other equally shitty planet out there.

Feel free to write in your own strategy as long as its not out there like hiring the Beyonder or an army of Krypto-clones.

So what is the threat actually? is it Parallax? HulK?

Anyways I pick Subcontract to Doom

This are terrible options for me. I suck at leadership so the first three are out and you know Doom's gonna pull something.

#2 sounds like the best option assuming this is prior to the Annihilation wave/Xandar extinction event. One of the most intelligent (and benevolent) systems in either universe, plus thousands of galactic peacekeepers. And although most aren't on the level of the well-known Green Lanterns, the Nova Force is much easier to use effectively than a Green Lantern ring is.

Nova Corp=Green Lantern Corp.
Nova has cooler uniforms though.

It's basically every single one of them from that point forward. So Parallax, Hulk, the skrulls, SCW.

I also figured that your have to recruit human nova corpsmen since most would leave after you tell them that screw the andromeda galaxy youre on earth duty now.

I'd go with the GLC option, cause of the unlimited powerbase along with the recharging limit. I'd recruit hundreds of thousands of corpsmen so I don't want them to have unlimited charge on their rings in case they go rouge.

^ then earth is screwed. ZH Parallax>Galactus, and CIS/PIS are off so..

S.H.I.E.L.D

I'll use all of Shield + heroes to capture and torture Doom into creating a hundred Destoyer armours upgraded with Extremis Tech ( flight + speed ) kidnap a few hundred Asgardians illegally to fuel them. I don,t need to subcontract Doom. Tony as leader of Shield defeated him.

So I go with Shield contract. My soldiers would crush Nova and Lantern corps. As long as my Asgardian slaves were efficiently protected.

And I will be making out with Scarlett Johannson the whole time.

The more Asgardian slaves the more armours I can make!

That's because I'll be doing Alba while making out with Scarlett.
All in the name of World Peace

Enhanced Johanssons?!?!?!

Blasfemy!!!!!

No seriously, the universe would implode.

Sooo Worth It

The unlimited budget grants a lot of options to exploit.

First thing I would do, is hire the greatest minds of DC and Marvel (Doom, Reed, Pym, Batman, Joker, etc.)

Then, I would ask for assistance from the skyfathers (Highfather, Odin, Darkseid, Infinity-Man, Dormammu, etc.)

Let them do the dirty job. I'll just spend the whole time loving Ms. Johansson.

hrm... well given the choices...
1. a gl ring i cna use to make all of earth into gl members.. (or at least those loyal to me?)
2. worldmind and nova corpses who got their entire asses handed to them during annihilation...
3. shield... is nowhere near powerful enough to take on either one or two (throw in sword.. and we'll talk...)
4. von doom.... god... he'd find a way to take over the world... in fact...

i'd go with #1... find a way to put doom to sleep... kill him with some twisted perversion of the gl law... and then go forward on my quest to my earth into my own vision of how things should run...

and daniela cosio would be my queen.
