[edit] Institute of Evil members in the Squadron
The Institute of Evil was an assemblage of the Squadron's arch-foes. All were eventually B-modded and became members of the Squadron.
[edit] Nighthawk's America Redeemers
Nighthawk then formed a group called the America Redeemers from unknown superhumans and former supervillains. Loosely analogous to the Batman and the Outsiders, most had no direct DCU counterparts.
In addition, Nighthawk's group eventually included former Institute of Evil members Lamprey, Foxfire, and Shape, as well as expelled Squadron member Black Archer.
[edit] Other Squadron universe characters
A handful of other heroes and villains were seen in the Squadron series and elsewhere, most of whom were also directly analogous to specific DC characters.
- Bollix and the Rustler (Whizzer's foes, based on the Trickster and Terra-Man)
- Brain-Child (Avengers #85-86)
- Cerebrax (based on Brainiac; Master Menace's android servant)
- Master Menace (based on Lex Luthor - whereas Luthor is bald, Menace's hair will not stop growing)
- Professor Imam (the Sorcerer Supreme of Earth-S, and with his past membership in "The Golden Agency," a stand-in for Dr. Fate.)
- Mysterium (based on The Phantom Stranger; the current form of the being who tried to swallow the Squadron's universe)
- Neal (based on Dick Grayson - Kyle Richmond adopted the biological son of the Huckster after the villain's death and raised him as his own son. To his credit, Richmond apparently never took Neal into battle as a Robin figure. In New World Order, Neal becomes the new Nighthawk. )
New World Order also mentioned a number of other unseen characters with DC Universe analogues, such as the Erl King (a Swamp Thing analogue) and Nighthawk's archfoe The Huckster, an obvious take on The Joker. There are also occasional references to a past super-hero team called The Golden Agency, which included among its members Power Princess and Professor Imam.
