ATEAM/APOC TEAM

[Hammerstein NWC]

My version of the new school A-Team and their apocalypse counterparts. Set in the near future but loosely based on the events and portrayals in the movie of 2010.

The A-TEAM (2016)

In happier times the A-team pose for a photo. This shot was taken just after arriving home from the Gulf War III conflict and before their actions in the Kuwait Bank incident were brought to the attention of US Army officials.

in 2017 a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for crimes against humanity that they may not have committed. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles Underground. Today, still wanted by "the Authority", they survive as Soldiers of Fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help and you have the money to pay them, maybe you can hire the A-Team.

The APOC Team. (2018)

"Howling Mad" Murdock foresaw the Apocalypse in a vision. Initially Hannibal dismissed his words as the ravings of a lunatic."Bad Blood will bring death to the family" had been Murdock's first utterance - Too late Hannibal reacted to the information when his Black Ops contacts in the US Army corroborated his suspicions . A "successful" blood transfusion of synthetic blood to a Gulf War veteran sent home with honours turned out to be case zero. The ensuing "plague zombie" epidemic swept through suburbia like wildfire. Ever since the outbreak went national - Murdock hasn't spoken a word (it's rumoured that under his bandana he has almost completely sown shut his own mouth).

Faceman was badly burned during a failed extraction mission trying to save a prominent female scientist rumored to have synthesised a cure. Now he just wants the whole word to burn.

The same mission cost BA an eye when he was hit by shrapnel from the same chemical explosion that scarred face.

Baracus has now totally lost the plot (as well as his left eye), his fragile bad attitude has been elevated to "beserker" status.

The Stress of keeping the team alive has also taken its' toll on Hannibal - Sleep deprivation has put him further on edge. He battles constantly with inner turmoil - Could he have averted the disaster completely if if he had listened to Murdock earlier? Were Face and BA scarred because of a flaw in his extraction plan?

Comments and Criticisms welcome! :)

Where are 2016 B.A.'s arms from? I've wanted them for ages.
