| Notes |
The is the first time civilian identities are given for the majority of Luthor's team, and it is indicated that no code names have been issued. "Herakles" may be a nickname the group gave Gerome. Publisher has released copies of the breakdown art that indicates the codnames as: Lumina (Natasha), Ultimate Man (Jacob), Trajectory (Eliza, also refrenced as Velocity), Herakles, Omnivore (Hannibal), and Reaver (Erik). Also, the apparent death of Red Tornado in issue 5 is revisited with his mostly intact and functional head and torso showing up here. |
