The Citadel of Justice

In the early 80's the Guardians established a permanent HQ complex, the Citadel of Justice, or as it's more commonly referred to, The Citadel, on a small artificially created island, known as Citadel Isle, in Empire Bay. Since that time, they've continued to make a number of improvements to the facility, including an aircraft hanger, runway, and if rumors are to be believed, a cold fusion reactor, And then there's the A.I. computer system that keeps everything running smoothly. Some reports have stated that even the DOD is jealous of the island's defense systems. 

The Hammerhead

The Hammerhead is the team's submersible craft used for underwater transport. It's still docked at a pier on Citadel Isle.

The Team's hypersonic transport aircraft. Designed and built by Avery Aerospace, the aircraft is stored in a hanger on Citadel Isle. It hasn't been seen since the team disappeared.

Thank, but be warned, all of this stuff is subject to change, as a lot of it had been sitting around in notebooks for years. As I get around to nailing down specifics, the who's and what's of specific characters may get switched to fit what I'm working on, or to have their backgrounds jibe with the characters in the story.
