"Future's Guardian" is an ongoing comic series that takes place in the world of Champions Online.

The story continues from "The Lost Adventures of Galatea Future", picking up over a year after the previous series concluded.

At the end of "The Lost Adventures of Galatea Future" #4, Galatea Future, an alternate-future version of Galatea Powers, announces to Millennium City that she is giving up being a superhero after Markman Gold was able to trademark Galatea's name and likeness and uses it to literally "own" her. In order to fight this in court, Galatea was forced to abandon everything she is, thus depriving Gold of any revenue from her name and likeness, and to retreat to the Canadian Wilderness, where she could not be "seen".

The series resumes a year after that moment, with Galatea eventually able to free herself from the legal troubles caused by Gold and to re-invest herself in Millennium City with a new civilian idendity, a new home, and new friends.
