Student Officer: Teoman Yonar

Thanos -a villian whose aim was to balance the universe by erasing

half of it- was able to collect and equip all six of the Infinity Stones

(Space, Time, Reality, Mind, Soul, Power) and he reached the

ultimate power he was craving for. He used the power of the Infinity

Stones to reach his goal of balancing the universe. However, The

Avengers were not willing to let him do it. They defeated Thanos, but

before Iron Man took his life, he had managed to flee to another

dimension by using the powers of Infinity Stones. That’s how it all

started…

Thanos was in Metropolis, the home of Superman and Thanos’

surprise visit made Superman furious.

Superman took Thanos as a prisoner but the Avengers were in search

of Thanos . Therefore, they used a portal created by Doctor Strange to

transport themselves to Metropolis only to see Thanos who had

already been captured by Superman. So they wanted to take Thanos to

their own universe, but Superman did not want to give him back. Both

sides wanted to terminate the problem and decide Thanos’ fate by

forming a committee.

and resistance to injury.

-Hulk: A massive dose of gamma radiation transformed the brilliant

but humble scientist Bruce Banner's DNA, awakening the hidden,

adrenaline-fed hero in his genes. A hero of few words and incredible

strength, the Hulk has long been pursued by those who want to use his

enormous power for their own purposes, or by those who think the

Jade Giant's anger is too dangerous to be controlled.

Hulk's powers and abilities which are incredible superhuman strength,

durability, and healing factor; become more powerful as anger

increases. Banner possesses a genius-level intellect and is an expert in

multiple scientific fields, particularly in the studies of physics &

radiation.

advanced African nation of Wakanda, King TChalla is the Black

Panther; a sacred title that must be both inherited and gained by the

current Wakandan ruler. Having been granted superhuman powers by

they're prepared for the challenges ahead.

TEAM DC

-Superman: Superman has everything; strength, speed, flight,

invulnerability as well as his renowned X-ray and heat vision. Being

the most powerful being on the planet, his amazing abilities are also a

melancholic reminder of how different he is from the people he’s

dedicated to protect.

Superman means different things to many diverse people he inspires:

He’s an alien; an immigrant from a faraway land just looking to help;

a country boy fighting the never-ending battle for truth and justice.

And recent comics have truly spotlighted his role as the people’s hero.

-Batman: Millionaire Bruce Wayne was just a kid when he watched

his parents get gunned down during a mugging in Gotham City. The

crime would define his life, as he dedicated himself to become the

world’s greatest weapon against crime—the Batman.

Forget his Batarangs, Batmobile, or Utility Belt filled with high-tech

weapons! Batman is the most scary superhero of all, because he’s

pushed himself to the absolute pinnacle of human achievement. He’s a

brilliant detective who’s mastered fighting techniques. An Olympic-

caliber athlete with a plan for every occasion, Batman’s always five

Page 6: OSJMUN Special Committee · Thanos was in Metropolis, the home of Superman and Thanos’ surprise visit made Superman furious. Superman took Thanos as a prisoner but the Avengers

steps ahead of his foes. But in his crusade against injustice, two

questions always loom: How far will he go to protect the innocent and

will he sacrifice his humanity along the way?

-Green Lantern: Being a Green Lantern means facing your fears, and

for Hal Jordan, that is something he’s been avoiding throughout his

life.When he was a boy, Hal witnessed his greatest nightmare—his

pilot father died in a tragic plane crash. Nevertheless, determined to

follow his footsteps, Hal repressed his fears, became a reckless,

defiant test pilot. But when a dying alien crashed on Earth, the

irresponsible Hal was chosen to be that alien’s successor in the Green

Lantern Corps.

And his life only gets wilder from there. He can fly and create

constructions made of pure energy, generating anything from massive

green fists to emerald rifles that can snipe from a planet away. But

while Hal tends to ignore his fears, he’ll learn the only way to master

his ring’s power by confronting and overcoming them.

-Aquaman: Being cast out from Atlantis as a baby, Arthur Curry

grew up on land, considering himself a normal human. But when he

matured, Atlantis returned claiming himself as their rightful king.

Aquaman is the king of aqua. He can breathe underwater, swim at

tremendous speeds, and telepathically communicate with sea

creatures. Being able to withstand ocean depths, he gets bonus points

on land with his superhuman strength, enhanced senses, and nearly

impenetrable skin. And although his courage and decisive nature have

proven him a true heir to Atlantis’ throne, the continual conflict

between land and sea makes him a citizen of both.

-The Flash: Young Barry Allen’s life stopped the minute his mother

was murdered. The true killer was never found, and this mystery made

him obsessed, driving him to become a forensic scientist. Consumed

by his work, he spent his life chained to his desk, solving every case

that flew across it. But when a freak lightning bolt hit a nearby shelf in

Page 7: OSJMUN Special Committee · Thanos was in Metropolis, the home of Superman and Thanos’ surprise visit made Superman furious. Superman took Thanos as a prisoner but the Avengers

his lab, Barry received super-speed, becoming the Flash. Then, he

would climb up the buildings and travel around the world to get his

man—while getting introduced to a world so much bigger than his old

life of microscopes and cold cases.

He can run up buildings, move so swiftly, create sonic booms with the

snap of his fingers. Despite his speed, Barry can become so obsessed

with crime-solving.He can still lose track of everything else around

him, leaving the fastest man alive constantly running a minute behind.

-Cyborg: Although he was a star athlete, Vic Stone only yearned for

his father’s approval. But Dad was too focused on his scientific career

to notice… until the day Vic became his greatest experiment. After

Vic suffered from a serious injury, his father saved him by replacing

over half of his body with cybernetic parts.

Now, Cyborg is plugged into every computer on Earth, and no

firewall—or brick wall—can keep him out. His cybernetic

enhancements provide superhuman strength, speed, and endurance,

and the same technology destroys his chances to live as a professional

athlete. Now, flourishing in the digital realm, Vic is desperately alone

in the physical world—and still longs for his father’s affection.

Hungry to find purpose again, he fights alongside the World’s

Greatest Super Heroes.

-Wonder Woman: Wonder Woman is Princess Diana of the immortal

Amazons from Greek mythology. When army pilot Steve Trevor

crashes on the warriors’ secluded island paradise, Diana wins the right

to escort him home and make her people known to the world.

Torn between a mission to promote peace and her own warrior

upbringing, Wonder Woman fights evil while hoping to unlock the

potential of a humanity she doesn’t always understand.

-Shazam: Unlike most foster children, Billy Batson couldn’t care less

about finding a family. He just wanted to turn eighteen and finally

become an adult. While the boy was compassionate and kind, he got

used to protecting himself by staying emotionally distant from

Page 8: OSJMUN Special Committee · Thanos was in Metropolis, the home of Superman and Thanos’ surprise visit made Superman furious. Superman took Thanos as a prisoner but the Avengers

everybody. But that changed when he met an ancient wizard.

Just by saying SHAZAM!, Billy is transformed into a magical flying

adult superhero, one with the genius of Solomon, the strength of

Hercules, the unbreakable will of Atlas, the lightning blasts of Zeus,

the power of Achilles and the speed of Mercury. But gaining the

power of the gods means inheriting their enemies too. With the

abilities of the world’s mightiest mortal, Billy will have to struggle

with magical threats as well as his own youthful naiveté.

-Nightwing: When his circus acrobat family was brutally murdered,

Dick Grayson was taken in by billionaire and bat-friendly super hero

Bruce Wayne. Bruce shared his secret life as Batman with the young

boy and eventually molded him into Robin—the Dark Knight’s

partner in Gotham. But as Dick grew older, he decided to continue on

his own, adhering to what he learned. His code, like his mentor, is

simple. If you’re breaking the law in his neighbourhood, watch out!

Yet, while he may share methods and motivation with Batman, Dick

knows what Batman can do. He doesn’t want to become as dark,

controlling and lonely as Bruce. A question is inevitable: Without

going as far as Batman, can Nightwing be as effective as he ultimately

wants to be?

-Green Arrow: Spoiled billionaire Oliver Queen came home with an

entirely different personality and a newfound purpose in life.

Completely selfish and never caring about anything but himself,

Queen was on a sailing trip when his assistant betrayed him, leaving

him for dead on a desolate remote island. He was stranded, but he

achieved to survive with the help of a bow and arrow. When he

eventually discovered the primitive locals that shared the island with

him, he figured out exploitation and enslavery of the locals. Ollie

used his new skills of survival and archery to lead a rebellion— only

to realize how similar his opponents were to the man he used to be.

Returning to civilization only meant more opportunities to watch

greed and corruption of Joe and Jane Average. Outfitting himself with

Page 9: OSJMUN Special Committee · Thanos was in Metropolis, the home of Superman and Thanos’ surprise visit made Superman furious. Superman took Thanos as a prisoner but the Avengers

arrows that shot tear gas, smoke, nets, and more, Green Arrow had a

trick shot for every obstacle. Like a modern-day Robin Hood, he

constantly fought for the little guy as a crusading symbol for

revolution. And his days were filled with sweat, blood, and

desperation.

-Supergirl: Teenager Kara Zor-el was launched to Earth from the

dying planet Krypton. She faced with an entire world completely

different from the one she grew up in. She is the ultimate new girl in

school. She struggles to find her identity on her new reluctant home.

As the most powerful teenager on the planet, the Girl of Steel

possesses all of Superman’s powers—from superhuman strength,

speed, and invulnerability all the way down to his flight and enhanced

senses. Still learning to control her awesome powers and lacking her

cousin’s self-restraint, she may even be more dangerous than the Man

of Steel. She is isolated from this world. However, she’s still

struggling to comprehend it.

Questions to Answer:

-In which universe will Thanos be punished?

-What will be the punishment for Thanos?

-Will it be possible to sustain this punishment for a strong creature

like Thanos?
