History: The original Four comrades consisted of juvenile boxing prodigy Buzz Brandon, wealthy child inventor Tommy Tompkins and street urchins Pudge O’Conner and Tip Adams. During WWII the Four Comrades fought crime on the home front.

When the alien menace invaded Earth in 1969, it imprisoned many science heroes in suspended animation above the planet. The Four Comrades did not face the alien invader, but were left to deal with the after affects. They did their best to cope with the growing criminal element due to the lack of science heroes. Any attempts they made to stop the alien menace were nullified.

During the thirty years before, Tom Strange and his counterpart, Tom Strong, freed the other science heroes and defeated the alien threat, Tip was killed saving the life of his sister, “Tipper”. Tipper would replace her brother on the team…in his honor no doubt. As the team grew older they opened a bar in Invertica City, properly named “Comrades”. The Four Comrades were in Invertica City when the science heroes returned to Earth. Buzz, Tommy, Pudge and Tipper continue to own and manage the bar now that they’ve retired from the hero business

Note: After three years from the defeat of the alien menace a new crisis griped the Earth. A widespread time anomaly caused by an unconscious Captain Future brought past and future people and events into the present. Before it ended Buzz. Tommy, Pudge and Tipper encountered a time displace version of the original Four Comrades with Tip still alive. Old wounds thought healed were reopened.

Powers: None. All members were athletic and skilled in hand-to-hand combat.
