    I've not seen the adaptation of Jupiter's Legacy but if they are anything like as powerful as their comic counterparts, they should effortlessly steamroll the Seven.

    Also, they have a very potent psychic on their team so the Seven have no defence against that.

    It appears the Union members have a number of powers by default, like super strength, durability, and flight. The only difference is in to which degrees.

    Then there's their individual powers on top of that. Walter is essentially closer to J'onn (without the phasing or shape shifting) or Maxima.

    So their default powers already make them into flying bricks, and their individual specialized powers are icing on the cake.

    By contrast, heroes like A-Train and the Deep are much more focused on their trademark powers and played much more straight. They don't have baseline brick powers like the Union (or many other non-Uniom supers in their world, for that matter).

    Judging by that first fight, I'm not seeing any real way of stopping A-Train from just blitzing them while they're slowly flying around.

    We only see 3 of the 6 original members in the first fight, specifically not the speedster(the flare) and the teleporter (blue bolt)

    I wouldnt say their speedster is faster then a-train though. But to cyke’s point, if he gets caught he’ll most likely get wrecked by the flying bricks.

    Well... in the show, most supers seem to have some implied level of super strength and durability. When they confronted Lamplighter, and he threatened to attack, the reply was basically "she's (Annie) a supe, all you'll do is make her mad."

    No, this doesn't explain Transparent apparently not being significantly stronger than normal, nor the mind-reader being pretty squishy, but then, I don't think they made the show with Rumbles in mind.

    Is Transparent a friend of Translucent?

    Or just someone made of cling film / Saran Wrap?

    Hahaha - I think my brain autocorrected his name, given what "transparent" and "translucent" mean.

    Or, maybe they are special, dirty-ass super night club kinds of friends. I'm not judging.
