History

Prior to the formation of The Bureau of Metahuman Affairs, retired colonel Jonathan Hawkins was tasked by the Pentagon with planning and implementing a government-directed team of metahuman operatives. For the sake of expediency, Hawkins tapped a pre-existing group of metas operating in New York City. The group had come together as concerned citizens to chase down and capture a serial killer, which also had mutant abilities. Hawkins, called in by the New York Police as an "expert" on the matter of super powered mutants, was to help them apprehend the killer.

Hawkins made contact with "Catalyst," the leader of the group and pitched the idea of the team coming to work for the government. This meeting resulted in a non-commital answer and the matter was dropped. A few weeks later Hawkins passed information to Catalyst, which allowed his team to defuse a hostage situation. This event caused Catalyst to rethink the situation. He talked to his team, and they agreed to come on as the government team.

The team consisted of Catalyst, Synapse, Photon, and Hobgoblin. They lasted 2 months, before they mysteriously disbanded. All the members of the team retired and has not been seen in action since. This shook up the organization Hawkins was in charge of, and resulted in a number of "resignations" and retirements. The right hand man to Hawkins appeared to have vanished completely, but there wasn't enough concern in the media to generate a serious story on the matter.
