League of Champions

Origin

The Champions are also not the first such super team on their world; they were preceded by the legendary Vanguard of Freedom, who battled evil before, during, and for a few years after World War II. Although the present team did not spring directly from the earlier one, there are direct connections between the two. While there was a period of time with relative inactivity following the war years, broken most notably by Captain Thunder's brief career in the 1970's, a second era of costumed heroes has begun.

Champions headquarters, which for a time was located in a semi-secret base beneath San Francisco's Golden Gate Park, is now housed in a large cliffside building on the north shore of San Francisco Bay.
