Does anyone know where there is a good background story of everything that has happened up to this point in the multiverse?

I have pieced together some hints and have a general small idea of what happened from playing the card game and reading the starter kit, but I wanted to be able to give my players a general summary of what happened with OblivAeon, who died, how the cities faired, what happened in general.

**** SPOILER ****

Mainly I feel like they have only played the card game, so they don't know anything about the history. And I feel like if I just come out and say, "btw, Baron Blade died in OblivAeon, and that is just common knowledge." When they start to suspect it is him, that might throw them off the right track, or at least influence there thought process in a bad way.

So my thought was, if I could just present them with a general summary of what happened, to the heros, villans, cities, etc. That would be extremely helpful, and feel more generic. 

Right now all I could say, was OblivAeon came, you guys fought against him and won. Ra died killing his shield, Baron Blade died helping, and OblivAeon wrecked up the town a bunch. Not sure what happened to Omnitron. Anyway, so I was just looking for help or ideas on a better summary history of what happened.

I think what you need is the OblivAeon episode of the Letters Page which should be coming up in April I’d suspect. At this point we only have bits and pieces from the ARG and has been supplied in the Letters Page so far between various episodes.

I'm going to be running the first issue this week, so I pulled together the attached word document for my players (who've played the card game, so they sort of know about the setting already). I'm no expert on the lore; this is mostly just copy paste from the issues themselves, with some other stuff taken from the OblivAeon KS page and the wiki, so comments are welcome.

Thank you so much. That is exactly what I was looking for, you are awesome. Will help me so much with starting this game so my players will be somewhat familiar with what happened so far.
