Monarch (comics) - Hank Hall

Hank Hall

Monarch is an oppressive tyrant from a bleak, dystopian Earth in the year 2030 AD. The people are unhappy with his rule, particularly a scientist named Matthew Ryder, an expert on temporal studies, who is convinced he can use his technology to travel back in time and prevent the maniacal ruler from ever coming to power. He learns that, in 1991, one of Earth's heroes eventually turned evil, eliminated the superheroes of Earth, and became Monarch, who would conquer the world ten years later.
