First appearance

Blood Syndicate #1
(April, 1993)

The "tear gas" used at the Big Bang killed almost every gang member on Paris Island. The few that lived, strange freaks with superhuman abilities, have banded together as the Blood Syndicate, the city of Dakota's newest urban plague -- or its last hope.

History

Origin

The "Blood Syndicate" is a street gang of superpowered metahumans operating out of Paris Island, in Dakota City. Most of its members received their powers in the "Big Bang", when a tear-gas laced with Quantum Juice was used to dispel a massive gang riot, killing many and unlocking the metagene in an elite and surviving few. Its members are compiled from the remnants of several other street gangs, including the Paris Island Bloods and the Force Syndicate, hence their title being a compilation of both names. Lack of stability within the team led to their eventual disbanding.

Milestone Forever

Since their disbanding the Blood Syndicate left a hole in the hearts of it's members, powerful people left to fend for themselves. But when Holocaust makes his inevitable return he does so and reinstates the Blood Syndicate as they once were a gang. He tries to take his actions out into the street and claim Dakota City as his own, he is stopped by Wise Son and other heroes as they Wise Son himself challenges Holocaust into a battle for the rightful ownership of Syndicate. Wise Son wins and it seems that Holocaust has burned himself to death, yet again. It remains to be seen if Holocaust actually died, but to all present Wise Son is their leader, who has ideas to bring his family to the light away from Holocaust's fire.
