History

The Fantastical Force was a team of freaks that Johnny Redbeard created before casting them aside. They fought against Freak Force which resulted in them getting arrested and sent to prison, leading to their transferral to the M.M.M.S. The team remained in the service of this organisation until Freak Force, Chelsea Nirvana and her Henchmen liberated the camp and freed all of its prisoners.

Chelsea Nirvana then attempted to seize control of the Vicious Circle with her new army of freaks but was defeated by CyberFace. Her followers were then largely folded into the ranks of the Vicious Circle. Stretch-O was drawn into another clash that involved ShadowHawk.

Many years later, the Fantastical Force reformed as a team and joined forces with the Throwaways. They came into conflict with a similarly reformed Freak Force but sadly for the criminals, the heroes’ ranks included the Billy Berman Mighty Man. He lost patience whilst fighting the villains and simply slaughtered them all.
