Was it the ship that crashed into the ocean with the X-Men, after which emerged the Phoenix?

That would be the one! (The ship was a space shuttle and, technically, it was Jamaica Bay it crashed in, but I ain't splittin' hairs!) See guys--it weren't so hard! [Big Grin]

Yer up, Xben!

Well, Jamaica Bay is directly connected to the ocean, at least. My parents had a funny story about boating there with friends many decades ago, and getting lost in the marshes at night.

It was the fact that "new" was in quotation marks that made me think of it.

New question soon.

With what hero were Dave Lincoln, Victor Lanza, Claudia Shane, and Harvey Lockman associated with?

Hm. Don't recognize them, so I'm thinking pulp characters for some reason. So....Doc savage?

Yep, that was a significant part of the clue!

Neither is correct, although I can see how a list of names like that is a bit reminiscent of Doc Savage's band of helpers.

HINT: It's a character owned by one of the Big Two.

That's it. He rescued the four normal humans from Apokolips (I think they were scanning their brains for clues to the anti-life equation) and they became his little entourage on earth in his ongoing war against Darkseid's minions. I haven't read the all of Kirby's New God's yet, so I don't know where (if anywhere) it all ends up for them.

They're a funny group of characters because just about each issue they seem to feel compelled to mention their own names out loud, and talk about how out of their depth they are (eg, "What about it Lincoln? I'm Claudia Shane, simple but worried secretary! What am I involved in this time--?" "And me, young but cool, Harvey Lockman!" etc.)

they do seem like 70sish sort of names.

I actually remember the name Dave Lincoln and knowing it was from one of the big two sparked the memory. I actually almost said the Forever People, but then realized Xben said "hero".

My question:

Name the heroes who teamed-up with Batman in The Brave and the Bold at least 5 times.
