The Invaders - Animated series for Disney Plus?
I wish that we could convince Disney that an Invaders animated series would be worth doing. It would be easy enough to do - we have the origen of Steve Rogers as Captain America, we have the Original Human Torch (starting as a cameo at the World's Fair. We can restore Atlantis to its proper place and not that travesty of Black Panther 2 in the MCU.
Adopt the H.Y.D.R.A. paradigm from MCU, and we have the perfect springboard for adventure!
Season One
Episode One - OK Axis, Here We Come!

| The Invaders! |
![]() |
| Doctor Emil Erskine |
Captain America and Bucky are summoned to NYC where the President is scheduled to meet with Prince Namor of Atlantis, and if the talks go well, Namor will announce that Atlantis will join the Allies against the Axis powers.
Federal agents have recruited an android Human Torch, created by Phineas Horton, for testing for use against the Axis powers. The Human Torch is asked to investigate a circus performer Thomas Raymond with a seeming immunity to fire and heat; agents of the shadowy figure from before are there to kidnap him. The Human Torch intervenes, but the proximity of the Human Torch causes the circus performer to burst into flame. The enemy agents flee while Torch stays behind to make sure Raymond is OK. Thomas Raymond's abilities, dormant, have been awakened by the Human Torch. The Human Torch becomes Raymond's mentor.
The shadowy figure has brought scrawny Wilhelm "Willie" Lohmer to test the HYDRA recreation of the Super-Soldier formula. Julia Koenig, the head human scientist, and the shadowy figure comment that the test subject is expendable. The process overloads the equipment, and there is an explosion. Out of the wreckage steps Master Man (sans uniform).
The Human Torch, and the newly-christened Toro, are summoned to the NYC conference as additional security, and meet Captain America and Bucky. They are nearby when the President meets with Namor. During the meeting, Master Man attacks.

| Master Man |
Master Man, Captain America, Bucky, the Human Torch, and Toro engage the threat. They discover the hard way that Master Man is far stronger and resistant to damage. Only Captain America is left, and Master Man is about to crush him under a brick wall when Namor charges out. Namor's strength appears a match for Master Man's, and when Namor, Captain America, and a recovered Human Torch confront Master Man for the final show-down, Master-Man regresses to the scrawny fellow he was before the treatment, which proved unstable.
Namor announces that Atlantis will join the Allied forces, and the President announces that Namor, Captain America, Bucky, the Human Torch, and Toro - as the Invaders, will join the fight.

Out near Bermuda, where U-Man's attack is about to take place, Betty Dean is in a small boat with other journalists waiting to see Churchill pass through. U-Man and his Atlantean henchmen capture the boat to use as a staging platform, disposing of all its occupants except Betty, whom U-Man realizes is Namor's friend and thus a fitting prisoner. He hits Betty and throws her below decks, leaving her for unconscious, but Betty fakes it and sneaks below to the radio, warning off Churchill's plane.
U-Man catches the plane as it brushes the water, but before he can do anything else, Namor attacks. Several German U-boats attempt to capture Churchill, and the Human Torch and Toro attack them. Captain America and Bucky retake Betty's ship, fighting off the Atlantean renegades. A mysterious vortex manifests, sucking into it the U-boats, and only the combined efforts of Namor, Toro, and the Human Torch keep Churchill's plane from joining them.
Churchill's plane escapes, but U-man and his soldiers escape into the water.
