Line 31:
* Johnny Bates, AKA Kid Miracleman, from the comic ''[[Miracleman]]''. (Originally known in the UK as Kid Marvelman and ''Marvelman''.) [[Alan Moore]]'s 1980s revival of the series not only aged the character to adulthood but gave him one of the most horrific [[Face Heel Turn|Face Heel Turns]] in comic book history.
* The [[The Silver Age of Comic Books|Silver Age]]-inspired ''Freedom Force'' computer games give us ''Liberty Lad'', sidekick to [[Super Patriot]] ''The Minuteman.'' Young Nick Craft, founder and president of the Freedom Force Fan Club, tags along after the team as they try to bring down mobster-turned-supervillain Pinstripe. Naturally, he gets shot.

'''Minuteman:'' By the Constitution, Mentor, '''there's no time!''' The Energy X in Minuteman's blood gives Liberty Lad super strength and agililty and a penchant for red, white and blue tights. He's one of the more fun and effective characters in the game. }}
** And from the same game, we have ''Man-O-War'' and his preteen sidekick, ''The Sea Urchin.''
