* WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway: Titan is a strongman and wrestler, Tony, Deadeye, and Miranda are weapon experts, and Julio is... a ventriloquist. We never see the Eccentrics kill anyone, but even by that standard Julio doesn't seem capable of killing anyone. Is he going to kill people by throwing his voice? He doesn't carry a weapon, and his dummy Tony doesn't display any hidden weapon capability.

The style of crown is also a medieval era one that Roman emperors would not have sported.
