History
Early Days
Shortly after the end of World War II, it was brought to the attention of the world the increasingly large numbers of superheroes, villains and other extranormal entities. The city itself was designed by a former Nazi scientist, who also became citizens and was designed to be a self-contained city with it's own infrastructure and government and provided amnesty to heroes and villains who were previously outlaws. This included the police force, which was largely made up of former superheroes.
In the early days of the city, Top 10 often dealt with former superheroes who were unaccustomed to putting away their vigilante ways and actually calling the police for help. In addition, they had to deal with a vampire crime family that had moved in following the establishment of Neopolis. Eventually hey succeeded in taking down the vampire mafia, as well as a time traveller intent on rewriting history. Police officers of note at the time included former boy adventurer Steve Traynor (known in his superhero days as Jetlad).
