The Pastiches

The Pastiches are an elite Government Team funded by the United States Government with support from President Alder Baldwynn. The team consists of Altair Corbin, Talyn Corbin, Chet Asvini, Reece Verena, and Amy Felyne.

Background
Originally named as the United Protectors of America, the Pastiches were created by Theodore Roosevelt in 1908. After one of the members was killed by the U.S.S.R. during the Cold War, UPOA was terminated by Lyndon B. Johnson in fear.

In 2047, Altair Corbin found out about the UPOA from Jean Corbin, where he reminisced about his grandfather telling him about the past of superheroes. After Altair's Alter Ego, The Starling, became one of the biggest public heroes, he was approached by Benjamin Burrows and was asked about starting a team of heroes. Altair recommended the UPOA to him during a meeting at the Pentagon, where Benjamin Burrows states that it would need a different name. Altair recommended "The Pastiches." The Pastiches consisted of The Starling and The Hummer, with later additions of The Sage, Fleetfoot, and Alley Cat. Which would later lead to the Chicago Incident, The Battle of New York, and the National Brawl.
