Found here.
You wake up in Manhattan, in the ruins of the Baxter Building. Or in New Mexico, in a research facility deep under the desert. Or in Seattle, in a high-rise building on the West Coast. You're on Earth, but not your Earth - if Earth was ever yours in the first place. There used to be people like you - powerful people, heroes - but they're all gone. No one will tell you why, even if you ask nicely.
You wake up in a different world with different rules, but at least you wake up still you.
