One night during a botched attempt to stop a robbery, Batman receives some help from a new group of superheroes calling themselves the Terrific Trio: Magma, Freon, and 2-D Man, who were three former scientists that became mutated in a FreakLabAccident and gained superpowers. At first, Terry is optimistic about the new heroes' intentions and wonders if Gotham will even need Batman anymore, but there's a dark secret behind these new heroes...

** Hodges is this to Doctor Doom. He's the jealous and inferior rival to the Reed Richards expy, but instead of being the victim of an accident which deforms him which he blames on "Reed", he instead ''causes'' the accident that deforms his rival. (Though it's downplayed in this case, since the original Reed didn't actually cause the accident that deformed Doom.)

Not an example. There was no defiance in that line, and Magma didn't know he was going to die.

Even Dr. Hodge, who set up the accident, is grief-stricken that everything he did cost him his friends (among them being the woman he loved).

** The Terrific Trio strongly resemble the ComicBook/FantasticFour. They start off as heroes, but soon learn they that their conditions are unstable. Worse then that, their friend Dr. Hodges orchestrated the "accident" that gave them their powers to kill Mike so he could swoop in on his fiancée Mary (who wasn't supposed to be there). After the military attempt to kill them, they become emotionally destroyed and try to duplicate the accident, not caring that the radiation would destroy the city. [[TakeThat They all die horribly.]]
** General Norman is possibly based on Nick Fury, acting as liaison between a superhero team and the government. He doesn't trust said superheroes, and launches a military attack to destroy them upon being informed of a slight chance they could be losing their sanity.

* MurderByInaction: It turns out that Howard Hodges knew the "accident" was going to happen, but he deliberately withheld this information from his colleagues to get Mike killed so he would have a chance to go out with Mary, which is why he wasn't present during the experiment. Unfortunately for him, not only does Mary take part in the experiment anyway, but the "accident" instead irreversibly mutates the trio while slowly killing. The situation goes FromBadToWorse when the trio find out the truth.
