[edit] Onslaught?

In the article the name of the Quraci superhuman team is listed as Onslaught. During the Ostrander run on Suicide Squad (and I believe the Giffen second version) this team was known as The Jihad.

If D.C. has decided to change the name to be politically correct the former name of the team should be noted. It does raise an interesting question though. If Superboy "punched time" and the team name was always Onslaught, how should the change be noted? "In a previous timeline which now never existed the group was known as The Jihad."

[edit] Hoax?

Is this really true, or is this article a hoax article? This seems sort of suspicious to me. Can someone clarify please? --HappyCamper 03:27, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

Yep it's real. --Basique 13:14, 7 July 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Quarac Appearances

From John Wells Quarac also appeared in Justice Inc. II#1 featuring Richard Benson, the Avenger. "From there he was stationed in Northern Africa. They then refer to him being the President of Qurac "I believe".

As I understand it, though, Quarac is in the Persian Gulf in the DCU. Then again, the person said "I believe", so he may have been making a mistake.

No later than this period of time, Slade Wilson begins his mercenary career as Deathstroke the Terminator. Though his identity was apparently known to his potential clientele, he managed to hide his dual life from his wife Adeline, and the public apparently did not even know of Deathstroke's activities. His assignments included the murder of Colonel Akba Kadar of Quarac. An associate of Kadar's hires the Jackal, an international terrorist based in Uganda, to discover who paid for the murder. To that end, they kidnap Slade's son Joseph. Slade slays the Jackal, but his son is injured, so that he can no longer speak. [Tales of the Teen Titans#44]
