The Force of July
These guys started out as ultra-right wing villains that Batman and the Outsiders fought. Later, when John Ostrander was writing Suicide Squad, all of the government-sponsored supers fought then teamed up during the Janus Directive crossover. Most of these guys didn't make it out alive, but Ostrander made Major Victory likeable in his own way. Then, when Keith Giffen needed some bodycount for the Eclipso miniseries, Major Victory snuffed it. They weren't a powerful set of foes, usually relying on surprise and opponents being unfamiliar with them to gain initial victories before the heroes rallied and beat the snot out of them.Here they are:
