New Warriors


"The super-team for the new millenium." Originally formed by Night Thrasher (Dwayne Taylor of the Taylor Foundation), this young team consisted of Namorita, Nova, Speedball, Marvel Boy (later Justice), and Firestar. This team met up with the newly-formed X-Force during A.I.M. somewhat successful attempt to resurrect Proteus, and although the situation started off tensely, the two teams settled into a rhythm of coopreation and friendliness, with a little good-natured rivalry thrown in for good measure. The same line-up (although a bit more seasoned and including Rage and Slihouette) was involved in the Younghunt Other members who joined and left at different times included Silhouette, Rage, Turbo II, Darkhawk, Scarlet Spider, PowerPax, and the inimitable Hindsight Lad. Although the team disbanded shortly after Justice and Firestar joined the Avengers, Speedball refused to give up the Warriors and convinced Nova and Namorita to rejoin in time to fight Blastaar. Turbo II also returned, and new heroes Aegis and Bolt joined in to defeat the Negative Zone villain, with a little help from alums Justice and Firestar. The six-member team is currently based in New York City.
