Based on the parallel Earth known as Earth-S, the Squadron's members are the following superheroes:

  • Bulletman and Bulletgirl: Jim Barr was a police scientist who had invented the Gravity Helmet (which enabled him and his wife Susan to fly through the air as human projectiles) and a formula which put his strength to humanity's peak.
  • Ibis The Invincible: Prince Amentep was the son of an ancient Egyptian pharaoh who had been resurrected in modern times, along with his wife Princess Taia after they both went into suspended animation, as Taia needed to recover from a poisoned arrow, and Ibis wanted to wake up with her. Ibis uses the mystical Ibistick he had been given by the Egyptian god of wisdom Thoth and its incredible powers in his fight against crime and sorcerous menaces.
  • Mister Scarlet and Pinky, The Whiz Kid: Attorney Brian Butler and his adopted son use their ace acrobatic skills and strange weaponry against all varieties of crime.
  • Spy Smasher: Alan Armstrong was a Virginia sportsman who battled crime and enemies of America with his superb fighting abilities and technical know-how.

Famous quotes containing the word version:

    Truth cannot be defined or tested by agreement with ‘the world’; for not only do truths differ for different worlds but the nature of agreement between a world apart from it is notoriously nebulous. Rather—speaking loosely and without trying to answer either Pilate’s question or Tarski’s—a version is to be taken to be true when it offends no unyielding beliefs and none of its own precepts.
    Nelson Goodman (b. 1906)

    I should think that an ordinary copy of the King James version would have been good enough for those Congressmen.
    Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
