DNAgents [Amber; Rainbow; Sham; Surge; Tank]; Dr. Harden; Angela Krell [also as Proto-1 in flashback]; Lucius Krell; Tawny Shepherd; Electron (cameo); Luger; Positron (cameo); Alexi Vlasov
Alexi Vlasov uses Sham's body to power a giant robot body he calls Mega-Man and uses it to destroy Matrix, Inc. headquarters. When Sham escapes, Vlasov appears to die in the resulting explosion. After Luger manages to kill Angela, Surge learns from Lucius that she was Proto-1, grown using the DNA of the real Angela who had been murdered eleven years earlier. Lucius also suggests that Surge was grown from his own DNA after Harden tells the group that Vlasov's attack has destroyed the recorded research used to create them, making Lucius' claim impossible to verify.

Despite the revelation that the second Angela was Proto-1 there was a copy of the Proto-1 body clearly visible in Harden's lab in the first two issues. Harden is now referred to as "Doctor" by all characters.
