About This Item
The Rocket Red Brigade was commissioned by Russia’s rulers as a military-controlled response to metahuman threats and proliferation. The technology is a combination of human ingenuity and alien bio-engineering, thanks to the contributions of Green Lantern Kilowog, who innocently offered his aid while on a fact-finding mission to Russia. Rocket Reds were part of the first Justice League International team. The first was exposed as an android Manhunter infiltrator, while the second—Dmitri Pushkin—died battling renegade O.M.A.C. units. Currently composed of older units and more modern upgrades, Rocket Reds now solely protect Russian interests, with reports of potential international incidents involving Supergirl, Peacemaker, and China’s New Super-Man.
