Alternate universe Stormwatch

In the Bleed storyline,[1] Stormwatch watched events unfold in a parallel universe that had little knowledge of Daemonites or Kherubim. In this universe, Battalion had been removed from Stormwatch after a catastrophic attack on the Skywatch space station. He was replaced as Weatherman One by Jack Hawksmoor, with Synergy retaining her position as second-in-command. His bodyguard and personal assistant was Freefall (of Gen¹³), going by her real name, Roxanne Spaulding. His maid at his home in the United States was Anna, Gen¹³'s domestic android. He commanded a version of Stormwatch employing over twenty-three super-powered beings; besides himself, Freefall and Synergy, there were exactly twenty field operatives, divided into five teams.
