Brimstone Crisis

The Brimstone Crisis was a demonic invasion that accured 15 years ago in the Park of Halcyon City. A group of Cultist (supposidly under the command of Mr. Laileb) managed to open the very Gates of Hell in the middle of the city, releasing the already waiting, demonic armies upon the world.

Many superheroes of the Bronze Age fought against the forces of hell, including Demitrius Hellbane and Mary Hex at the very front. In the end it was Hellbane who stormed through the Gates, according to his own reports "beat the shit out of the King of Hell" and then closed the massive portal with his very own hands.

A memorial was errected at the Park where the Gate had stood, honouring the fallen and especially the efforts of Hellbane and Mary Hex in ending the Brimstone Crisis.
