Full Summary
The Global Defense Agency (GDA) is a clandestine multinational organization dedicated to safeguarding Earth from extraterrestrial, paranormal, and supernatural threats, as well as monitoring super-powered individuals. Primarily funded and staffed by the United States, the GDA operates beyond national borders, deploying assets worldwide—from the depths of outer space to the underwater realms like Atlantis.
Headquartered beneath the Pentagon, the GDA's extensive operations are overseen by Director Cecil Stedman, a resolute leader committed to Earth's protection at any cost. Under his command, the agency employs advanced technology and collaborates with superheroes, notably sponsoring the Guardians of the Globe, to address global threats.
The GDA's resources include enhanced equipment, some of which have ethically questionable origins, to supplement or substitute the abilities of superheroes. Their arsenal features stealth armor, teleportation devices, reconnaissance drones, and cybernetic endoskeletons. Notable weaponry includes "The Hammer," an orbital satellite equipped with powerful laser beams, and the "Hail Mary," a Kaiju deployed against formidable adversaries. Additionally, the agency utilizes ReAnimen—former humans transformed into mechanical beings with extraordinary strength and speed—to bolster their forces.
In terms of transportation, the GDA operates various vehicles, including helicopters, VTOL aircraft, jets, and APCs, enabling rapid response to threats worldwide. Their global reach and advanced capabilities position them as a pivotal force in maintaining Earth's security against diverse dangers.
