Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A terrible plague has swept the Earth, turning everyone – human, hero, villain, god and monster — into sadistic cannibal predators. As Spider-Man, the Hulk, the Thing and other infected start a feeding frenzy, the world falls in a wave of insatiable violence. Now, five years later, one man hunts the wasteland that was New York City. One man stands against the hordes of monsters who hunt the night. He is the Punisher, the Last Gun on Earth, and he has an endless supply of ammunition.Marvel Universe vs. the Punisher is a four-issue miniseries by Jonathan Maberry and Goran Parlov, set in an alternate universe where an accidental bio-weapon spill has mutated almost every major Marvel character with the notable exception of Frank Castle. In an effort to make up for having caused that spill, Castle hunts the former heroes and villains throughout what used to be New York City.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The original miniseries was followed by a prequel, Marvel Universe vs. Wolverine. Set during the original outbreak, it follows Logan and a handful of other surviving heroes as they do their best to survive against overwhelming odds. Unfortunately for Wolverine, as we know from the original series, there's one big obstacle in their way. His name is the Hulk.A third volume began in October of 2012, The Marvel Universe vs. the Avengers. It's primarily focused on Hawkeye, who manages to survive when the other heroes and villains are falling all around him, and ends where Punisher begins.Not to be confused with the 1995 one-shot comic, The Punisher Kills the Marvel Universe, by Garth Ennis and Doug Braithwaite. |

And Then John Was a Zombie |
| Marvel Universe Vs. The Punisher / Comicbook / int_115d318 |
comment |
And Then John Was a Zombie: Endemic within the setting, and the the core reason the virus poses a threat to a group as powerful as the Avengers. Rather than turning when bitten, the survivors are simply liable to snap and start eating people at any moment. A particularly egregious version is when She-Hulk is placed in charge of a refugee camp by the Avengers, only to become infected and turn on the people under her protection. |

comment |
Foreshadowing: After noting that Zero's tribe is mostly comprised of female spider-themed superhumans, Frank speculates that he might be planning to breed. Zero turns out to have gotten Mary Jane pregnant. During the Priest's flashback, Mary Jane and Aunt May can be seen as part of his group of survivors, as the Priest worked in Aunt May's soup Kitchen. Also in the Priest's flashback,Stilt Man can be seen abducting a Red-haired woman from the group of survivors during the night.The woman is Mary Jane. Stilt Man is rescuing her on Spider-Mans' orders. Psylocke appears to recognize her unknown assailant before she's killed, hinting that it's one of her teammates. During 'Wolverine,' The Thing never moves or speaks during the scenes in Reed's Lab from issue 2 onwards, spending them staring intensely at Spider-Man's enclosure. He's turned, and the two of them are coordinating an escape through body language. |

Technically Living Zombie: The plague in this alternate reality is a lot more like some kind of hell-blend between the Crossed and Plagas infection. Higher brain functions take a hike and all victims devolve into members of cannibalistic, tribal societies, although are still highly intelligent. |

The Worf Effect: In the prequel, Hulk and Wolverine have a drawn-out battle that ends with Wolverine getting a hand ripped off. Frank just shoots Hulk in the eye with an arrow (the arrowhead is the tip of one of Logan's severed claws though). Likewise, in Marvel Universe vs the Avengers, Hawkeye kills Dr Doom — the MU's most dangerous and formidable villain — in the same way. |

comment |
Reality Ensues: In Avengers,The victory of successfully evacuating the science team is undercut by the fact that the infrastructure no longer exists to disseminate a cure even if they manage to develop one. The virus only spread as far as it did due to the mass movement of humans in a globalized society, and that ship has sailed. Hawkeye has difficulty remaining relevant in the utter chaos of the early outbreak, as his Badass Normal archery skills are overshadowed by the more powerful crowd-control abilities of the uninfected heroes. On the other hand, he excels at assassinating singular targets, as Dr. Doom finds out the hard way. |

The Immune: Castle got a super-dose of the original bio-weapon that caused the plague, so he's completely immune to it. Characters with healing factors, like the Hulks, Wolverine and Deadpool, can feel the infection in their systems, but can also opt to ignore it if they exercise enough willpower. Hawkeye simply does not catch the plague. He believes himself immune for some reason, but never finds out why. |

comment |
Hawkeye has difficulty remaining relevant in the utter chaos of the early outbreak, as his Badass Normal archery skills are overshadowed by the more powerful crowd-control abilities of the uninfected heroes. On the other hand, he excels at assassinating singular targets, as Dr. Doom finds out the hard way. |

Creepy Souvenir: Many of the infected superhumans fashion adornments out of the bones of their victims. Special mention goes to Hulk, who wears Wolverine's severed hand as a necklace, Daredevil, who builds a rosary out of the fingerbones of some nuns, and Hercules, who wears the heads of several of the Morlocks on his belt when leading his army against the surviving avengers. |

Deconstruction |
| Marvel Universe Vs. The Punisher / Comicbook / int_8ae880f7 |
comment |
Deconstruction: This could be read as a deconstruction on Marvel Zombies. In the MZ titles, the titular zombies don’t actually act like zombies, but rather intelligent cannibals that happen to be undead (who end up conquering their world). This story kinda runs with that idea, showing a mutating Hate Plague that simply makes the infected savage maniacs that are easily dealt with. It also demonstrates a better understanding of the heroes; MZ!Mr. Fantastic loses his mind after the death of his children, whereas the Reed of this world keeps his sanity and helps establish a safe-zone with the surviving heroes. |

Guilt-Free Extermination War: Played with. The question of whether or not it's okay to slaughter large numbers of what are effectively very sick people creates tension within the Heroes ranks, but the question falls by the wayside as it becomes clear how far the infection has spread. The heroes are still shown to pay lip service to the idea of containing people's infected loved ones, though. |

comment |
Apocalypse How: New York City is a depopulated hellhole, occupied by cannibal mutants, the very occasional uninfected survivor, and Frank Castle. It is heavily implied that the plague has spread everywhere else in the world as well. The handful of surviving super heroes and scientists who escaped the city, however, have successfully evacuated to a hidden base in Antarctica, where they're working on a cure, and more survivors arrive at their facility every day. The world could conceivably rebuild. |

Nothing Is the Same Anymore: Spider-man publicly killing and eating the Rhino on Live television was the first time the general public realized that there was a problem on the horizon. Subverted in that most of the superheroes were able to write it off as an isolated incident until The Blob ate a restaurant in Hoboken and a mob of school-children went on a killing spree in a shopping mall. |

One-Man Army: Just like his mainstream counterpart. Frank has been fighting a solo war against hordes of mutant cannibals,the superhuman type in particular, for years after the fall of civilization. Dr. Doom turns out to be one of these, single-handedly killing an infected Juggernaut, Hercules, and an army of mole people in short order. The raw ferocity he demonstrates while fighting serves as foreshadowing that he's actually infected. |

In Marvel Universe vs the Avengers, it's shown that he probably got the idea by observing Hawkeye, who used the same trick (and the same arrow) to kill an infected Dr. Doom. An infected Venom mentions having eaten an entire Swat Team. In Avengers we see him doing this in silhouette. |

Big Damn Heroes: In the climax of the original series, Deadpool brings weapons and distracts the infected long enough for Frank to get loose and go on a killing spree. He gets caught in Frank's crossfire for his efforts. Doctor Doom pulls a dark variant on this in the first issue of Avengers; He one-shots an infected Juggernaut and rescues Thor, but this is mostly intended as a demonstration of power so that the Avengers will bow down to him. They have to prostrate themselves to get him to help with the next wave of infected led by Hercules. |

Why Won't You Die?: If Deadpool was hard enough to get rid of before, it's damn near impossible now. Frank mentions killing him 33 times. |

Mercy Kill: Castle executes Captain America, at his request, just before Cap succumbs to the plague. Sue Storm does this to her children by choking them with forcefields. |
