The spider is always on the hunt.
The Champions tagline is actually "Because the World Still Needs Heroes". Due to the fact they were formed as a result of heroes fighting each other. It is true that the Champions and New Warriors pretty much have the same remit though.
Thrash was clearly the armored warrior Riri reminded Midnight's Fire of, but isn't another New Warrior just as likely to show up? Silhouette, MF's sister.

Honestly, I was never into the whole Skateboarding scene in the 90's... so 'beating the crap out of people... at night' was always the definition I assumed. It wasn't even till recently I connected the 'thrasher' part with the skateboard fad.
Which is still a reused catchphrase...
But it's an awesome catchphrase so I let it pass ;P I still get chills when I see that on Thunderstrike's Mace. Man I miss Eric...

Fabian, IMO, was always held back by the constraints of the genre back then. I remember him wanting to do an AIDS plotline with Nomad, but was rejected.
His Warriors was good despite that, IMO. Recognizing the moral complexity of the Middle East, for instance.
I think Thrash could easily be the leader to lead a team team into the mire, so to speak.
Silhouette would be great to see in Ironheart as well, come to think of it, and given her and Dwayne's history . . . if Dwayne ever did try to restart the New Warriors, I figure she'd be one of the first people he contacted. Maybe even just to let her know he's alive (again).

Yeah, I think Thrash is Faking The Dead.
