History

The Victory Vanguard are composed of British superheroes from both the Golden Age and Silver Age of Comics, many of whom have fallen into public domain. MI-5 sanctioned the Victory Vanguard as a rival superhero team against to the Seven Stars, a U.N. sanctioned superhero team, in 1964. After their failed attempt to stop Toby the Fat Schoolboy, MI-5 decided to expand the Victory Vanguard's ranks by making it a super-army. They managed to exile the Super Stars to a different dimension. Soon they fought against an alien menace called The 'Mass as it nearly massacred all extended Victory Vanguard members.
