Mighty Max: Universe Tour -
In deep space is a wall made from the bodies of the beings who have tried to gain the power of the Source. Many believe that it's the origin of the Godwave that is believed to have been responsible for creating and empowering the Gods of this universe. And it is where that Skullmaster was drawn to having his ship fly far from this universe's Earth. Nimnul using the portal crystal and the ship's shock point drive, allowed the ship to travel from one galaxy to another.
"Boss what are you looking for?" Emperor Pilaf ask as he, Mai, and Shu have been scanning the wall made up of giant bodies for hours now. They been sitting at the controls as they used the equipment to scan the wall as any closer and they'll be trap as well. At the command chair is Skullmaster having not move since they began scanning.
"An old friend of mine. Looks like he tried to get pass the wall," Skullmaster said keeping his eyes lock on the screens not wanting to miss anything. "Stop!"
"You found him?" Mai ask.
"Upper right," Skullmaster said as the screen lock on a face he hasn't seen since before the first cap bearer trap him in his universe Earth's core and before the portals to other universes were closed off long before he took over.
"Who is he?" Shu ask.
"He's Yuga Khan the most powerful New God and the ruler of Apokolips. Knew him long ago, longer for him as time pasted differently after the portals were closed off to other universes," Skullmaster said.
"Wait you mean if we return to our world everyone we use to know would have died long ago?" Pilaf ask.
"As long as we use the portal crystal time won't go faster or slower," Skullmaster said as he hit the comlink. "Nimnul put all power into the gravity gun."
"Right boss," Nimnul replied.
The ship's gravity gun lock onto the body of Yuga Khan pulling him free from the wall. Once free from the wall his body became smaller before disappearing in a flash of light. Pilaf and his crew tried scanning for him but couldn't find him. He had broken free from the gravity beam that's powerful enough to pull or push a planet out of orbit after Nimnul had upgraded it.

"Really now? We would have just brought you on board," Skullmaster said turning his eyes to his left where Yuga Khan now stood.
"Skullmaster what are you doing here? I thought travel to other universes have been sealed off," he ask regaining his senses after being trap for so long.
"Been traveling from one universe to another. The crystal of souls was destroyed by the cap bearer and most of the pieces were destroyed. Using what was left, I created a portal crystal and reopen the pathways to other universes. And seeing you my old friend trap, I decided to free you," Skullmaster said.
"Come now Skullmaster, I know you well enough. You freed me to learn if, I know how to make a new crystal. Don't you think if, I had known. I wouldn't have made one long ago," Yuga Khan answers.
"A pity. But since you have been weaken by your long imprisonment. Why don't, I give you a lift home and stop at some planets that you can destroy to absorb its energy," Skullmaster said.
"And in exchange, I'll give some resources for your ship," Yuga Khan said.
"If you don't mind. After all you know that the master does want us to give aid to each other," Skullmaster said reminding Yuha of the rules that all servants of Evil have to follow.
"Don't tell me about the rules we must follow. After all you're still alive," Yuga said glaring at his old friend.
"Oh you know very well that well that while you and others wish for power from the master after giving yourselves to serve him. I wish that the rules of my universe always applies to me no matter where, I am," Skullmaster replied. (2)
"You're just lucky that your universe is unique," Yuga said.
"It is the only place that True Magic is everywhere instead of hard to find and use elsewhere," Skullmaster said. Not that it matters. I'm just as strong as you are without your god powers backing you up."
"True. But we can't fight among each other," Yuga reminded him.
"Set course for Apokolips," Skullmaster said to Pilaf.
"Where is that?" Pilaf ask.
"No need for that," Yuga said as he opens a boom tube. "But first there's a nearby planet for me to regain my strength from."
"You heard him," Skullmaster said.
"Right," Mai said setting course.
"That reminds me is the cap bearer following you?" Yuha ask.
"Knowing the fowl, they are," Skullmaster said. "But don't worry. Before, I left, I freed Kringle from his prison. He will go after Nicholas to reclaim his position. Those heroes won't allow that to happen and if the cap bearer is there he will get involved as well."
"Oh yes, I remember Kringle. There are heroes on his planet?" Yuga ask.
"Powerful enough to keep your son from taking it over," Skullmaster said.
"Tell me more," Yuga said interested in what he has miss since he's been imprisoned. (3)

On Earth -
Coming out of the portal Max and his friends with a new traveling member came out. They just barely managed to escape the world they were just in as it was destroyed. They jump into the portal as the shock wave and dust cloud came upon them. The woman with pink hair jump into the portal after them seeing it's the only way to survive.
"What was that?" Porlyusica ask not really knowing what had just happen.
"Max reopen the portal so we can see," Virgil said to Max.
"Right," Max said reopening the portal but this time as a viewing screen that Virgil had taught him. So that they wouldn't jump in blind. They did just now but better to jump in blind than be struck by whatever just happen.
What they saw was a the death throws of a dying world. Max zoom outwards into space to a portal over that world to see what's happening in time to see the moon of the planet slamming into it. The world broke apart as the moon slam into it. Looking to what cause the death of the world, he saw a massive space ship.
"Great aliens," Bea said having seen what they can do.
"Zoom in," Virgil said to Max.
"Can't too far away for that," Max said. "Is there another portal closer to it?"
"Yes where the moon was," Virgil said looking at his scroll.
"There," Max said looking at the front of the ship. He zoom in as close as he could to the bridge of the ship to see what kind of aliens at flying that ship.
"Skullmaster," Norma said seeing who's sitting at the bridge of the ship.
"Looks like he's been busy," Max said. "How long you said he might have been in another universe compared to us?"
"A year," Virgil said.
"Who is he?" Porlyusica ask in shock seeing her world destroyed in front of her eyes. It left her the only survivor of her world.
"He's Skullmaster the evil overlord of my world who escape his prison in the Earth's core and now is traveling to other universes. My name's Max, my wife Bea, Norman and Virgil. I'm the cap bearer and the one who will defeat him," Max explains.
"My name is Porlyusica and he's a dead man walking," she said pushing her pain and lost down as she lets her rage take over. "I might not be as powerful as some of the magic users, I knew. But I'm still a powerful potion master and, I will do what, I can to help you kill him."
"Virgil is that you?" a voice behind them ask.
Looking behind them they were greeted by the sight of a old man dress in a red suit. They realized that they're standing in a large room filled with wood. Both Max and Bea blink as they saw who's the man standing before them is.
"Ah Nicholas it's been too long," Virgil said remembering the man who he met when the portals to other universes were still open.
"Is he who, I think he is?" Bea ask as she learned that there was a jolly gift giving magical man in her world once. But that was before Skullmaster before he was imprison killed him for giving hope to the world under his rule.
"Yes meet this world's Santa Claus, Nicholas Frost," Virgil said introducing them to his old friend.

Elsewhere -
In Finland of the Korvatunturi mountain range, Doctor Fate the most powerful magic user of the JL and renowned occultist. He teleported to the ancient burial mound located underneath a mountain, having sense an unbalance in magic. What he found shock him as he found mountain was gone from where it once stood, as if it was just picked up and toss aside to reach what's underneath. Peering into gaping hole where the mountain once was, he saw the burial mound has been broken open.
It wasn't really a burial mound as it once served as a home for the vile thing that once made the mountain its home. The ancient spells and runes that kept the thing imprison were destroyed. The thing was asleep at the time when the magic users of that time banded together to trap it in it's own lair. They had waited for it to finish its feeding and fallen asleep before they began the ritual to seal it. Now it was freed as the magic users at that time never thought anyone would have been able to destroy the whole mountain to free it. And using his magic to scan the area he couldn't find the prisoner anywhere.
"Doctor Fate to the tower. This is a Omega level alert," using his com link.
"J'onn to Doctor Fate what's the alarm?" J'onn answers.
"Kringle Claus has been freed from his prison," Doctor Fate answers. He turns his glaze to the hole and what laid within. The lair of the thing is covered in piles of bones of hundreds that it has feasted on for years before it was trap within it's own home, small ones the size of children. (4)

Author's Notes -
1 – From what he's been able to do in the cartoon like being able to teleport using the phone lines or a beam that age things. There's no reason why he can't upgrade a mining ship's gravity beam into a gravity gun that can knock whole planet's or even stars like in Futurama.
2 - Thanks to the power Skullmaster gain from his dark master. He can't be effected by any power that isn't tech or life force in nature. Only magic that can effect him are the ones in his universe and nothing else. Unless it's on the same level as his dark master or Endless class. It also prevents him from being killed by fighting moves like in Fist of the Northstar as that kind of fighting style doesn't work in his universe. As Mighty Max universe is more real world setting in how things would work than in fiction. And while some martial arts do incorporate pressure points, it's ill advised to rely solely on them in real life. As it's fairly easy to miss a pressure point and roughly ten percent of the population has less than satisfactory response to them. ANd remember Skullmaster survived having a giant machine fall on him into a river of lava which isn't anything like water as it's more solid than liqued. It be more like falling onto frozen water than anything else. So he is superhuman strong and tough as he did kill Son Goku the Monkey King of his universe with his bare hands. Who is base on the one from the stories and had all of his powers, which he was killed by Skullmaster.
3 - Yuha Khan is Darksied's father who is even worse than he is. In the comic he's so powerful that Darksied didn't dare to even fight back against him.
4 - The first santa was never the jolly fat man we all know and love.
