HISTORY

This "slightly deranged super-team" of Gotham City consisted of hero wannabees and mentally challenged men who socialized in the circles around Hitman Tommy Monaghan.

Members were: Captain Sixpack, a delusional alcoholic and team leader; Flemgem, who had the power to cough up and spit out a disgusting phlegm; Jean de Baton, an alleged (and beyond stereotypical) Frenchman who fought with a big stick; Friendly Fire, who could fire powerful bolts but never hit the target; Dogwelder, who..um...welded dead dogs to people; Shakes, a stuttering spastic; Defenestrator, a mental patient who threw people out of windows; and Bueno Excellente, who fought evil with the power of perversion.

Section Eight proved their heroism against such threats as Mawzir and Lobo. However, all except Sixpack and Bueno tragically perished in battle with the Many-Angled Ones.
