The Savage Dragon universe has more heroes than you can shake a stick at! Here is a look at  some of the major cast members of the more recent issues of Savage Dragon:

The hero of the story. Dragon' origin has yet to be told--he was discovered  in a burning field in Chicago. He was fully grown and had a complete memory of everything except for who he was and where he was from.  In the years that followed Dragon went through various career changes which included becoming a member of the Chicago police force, a bounty hunter, a government super-team member, and a semi-retired super-hero. Dragon now permanently resides in an alternate universe after being sent there by the time traveling villain, Darklord.

Jennifer discovered her super-human strength when her powers were trigged by her first husband, Kevin (Angel's father). Kevin was abusive to the family, and when she tried to defend Angel, her powers were triggered and she accidentally killed him with a super-powered blow to the head. Dragon (during his stint on the police force) helped Jennifer through that tough point in her life.

Eventually Dragon and Jennifer fell in love. As time went on, and attacks on Dragon by his foes increased, it became too much for Jennifer and she felt it was unsafe for her young daughter so she left. Years later, after Dragon defeated Khan, Jennifer came back to Chicago and was reunited with Dragon. The two married and became active members of the Liberty League--mostly concentrating their efforts to cleaning  up the Danger Zone. Jennifer has since lost her power after being touched by the villain Negate.

Jennifer Dragon's daughter from her marriage prior to Dragon. Angel is always getting into trouble and causing grief for Dragon. She usually tags along with her mom and step-dad during their super hero adventures. Her best friend is Ba-Goom who she affectionately renamed "Mr. Glum" . She treats him like one of her dolls and never takes him seriously.

Ba-goom hails from a planet in the Void--a planet where he is the most powerful being. Ba-goom wants to prove himself all-powerful by defeating the Earth hero known as Dragon. Though he is able to enter Dragon's house by a teleportation device, his threat is not taken serious. Angel finds him and treats him as  though he is a doll  (Ba-Goom is  the size of a child's doll). For a while Dragon didn't even realize that Glum was anything but one of Angel's play things. Glum has tried to kill Dragon several times without success. Both Dragon and Angel seem to think that the little guy is harmless, Jennifer is not so sure.  Glum has a deep affection for Angel but still seems to want to defeat Dragon.

Malcolm Eugene Dragon, is a child that Dragon conceived with his former girlfriend, the super-heroine, Rapture; while still in Dragon's original universe. The villain Darklord was able to trick the couple into thinking that the child died at birth--meanwhile, Darklord was raising him with the rest of the super-powered children that he kidnapped as part of an evil scheme. Dragon  met Malcolm for a short while during the period of time when he was able to revisit his original universe with the aid of the Eternal Youth's reality-jumping portal. After a majority of the Eternal Youths were killed in a vicious battle, Dragon lost his ability to travel back to his old universe.

When the enormous alien being known as Universo devoured the Earth from Dragon's original reality, Malcolm and other super-powered children were saved by mysterious figures who pushed them through a portal into the Void. Malcolm remains in the Void to this day.

Eventually Rex Dexter, developed a way to create a portal to Dragon's old universe without having to use the power of the Eternal Youths. When Dragon entered the portal, he found the results of Universo's visit--the Earth was completely destroyed with only charred pieces or rock left floating in space. Deeply saddened, Dragon returned to the reality he now calls home believing that his son died with everyone else that he knew from his former universe.

Johnny Armstrong was an American soldier during World War II when he was captured by the German army.  The Germans, in an attempt to create a super powered soldier, used their prisoners as guinea pigs and Johnny Armstrong, was their first subject. Through the experiments, Armstrong gained super human strength and a slowed aging process. Eventually Armstrong, used his new powers to  level the compound where he was being held, making  sure that the Nazis could never duplicate their experiment on one of their own. Going under the moniker of SuperPatriot, Armstrong has been fighting crime Ever since his transformation.

In the early 1990's SuperPatriot was brutally mauled by the then Vicious Circle member Mako. Near death, SuperPatriot's body was rebuilt with cutting edge cybernetic technology allowing  his new metal limbs to transform into various weapons with only a thought.

When the  villain Sebastian Khan took over the world he also gained control of SuperPatriot. SuperPatriot remained a pawn of Khan's, until Dragon defeated the dictator and his control of technology . SuperPatriot has since joined the new Liberty League.

Mighty Man is actually an ancient entity that was created by a mysterious wizard named Fon-Ti to battle the forces of evil throughout the centuries. The entity is passed through human hosts giving them the ability to morph into a man with god-like abilities. Despite it's great power, the Mighty Man entity cannot sustain itself and the host must eventually return to human form for substance and rest.

In the 1990's Robert Berman, the Mighty Man entity's human host since 1940, was brought to a hospital emergency room after being badly beaten by thugs when a local newspaper photographer discovered and revealed his identity. Berman, old and brutally beaten, passed on the Mighty Man entity  to  his nurse, Ann Stevens, just before dying. Berman actually thought he was giving his powers to his grandson, a selfish teenager who never bothered to visit his dying grandfather, but who dreamed of exploiting the Mighty Man powers .

Ann never realized that she obtained the Mighty Man entity until Dragon found her and showed her that clicking her wrists would cause her to transform into Mighty Man. (Dragon knew the secret of Mighty Man from the time spent in his original universe). Since then Ann, as Mighty Man, has helped Dragon save the world from evil various times. Mighty Man has since joined the Liberty League.

Amy Belcher's father was struck with a strange chemical while fighting in the Vietnam War and his daughter was born with a mysterious disease. Amy was saved by the Creator who gave her super powers and transformed her into Sensation. She was abandoned when the voices in her head made her unstable. Sensation went on to join the Nixed Men, a small criminal outfit, before reforming and adopting the name She-Dragon.

The voices in She-Dragon's head were those of the Eternal Youths, godly offspring who were able to communicate with her across dimensions. She-Dragon has limited mental abilities, the likes of which are undetermined, and enhanced physical strength.

Rex Dexter, the original Battle Tank, created a protective body armor which gives the wearer super-strength, the ability to fly, and the ability to emit powerful laser beams.

After Rex mutated into a demon like creature during his trials in the Void, he could no longer use his Battle tank armor. Dragon, asked his old police partner, and long-time friend, Alex Wilde to continue the role of the Battle Tank hero.

Alex Wilde is the only other being from Dragon's old reality to cross over to his new one on the "Savage" World. She followed Dragon through a portal that was opened at a time when Dragon was crossing between realities.

Though old and feeble, Rex Dexter made up for his limitations with his super-genius intelligence. Rex has invented many fantastic gadgets, one of which was the Battle Tank armor, which he used to help save the world from various evil menaces.

While searching the Void for his daughter's missing body guard, Rex was captured by the villain Deathseed. Eventually saved by Jennifer Dragon, the ordeal had mysteriously caused Rex to develop demon-like features similar to that of Deathseed.

Rex's new monstrous features seem to have given him heightened strength and agility as well as the ability to fly with the new set of wings he has grown. Although he was always moody, Rex seems to have become very paranoid and more withdrawn lately. Jennifer is keeping a close eye on him, fearing that their may be a bad side to Rex's new abilities.

Since the Battle Tank armor is of no more use to him, Rex has allowed Alex Wilde to wield the power.

Vanguard joined the Kalyptan military as all of his people do but instead of claiming glory that others have have achieved by serving in the Grand Central Alliance, he was given a bum assignment. Vanguard was stationed at the remote region of the galaxy where Earth is situated.

He has spent nearly a decade now protecting the Earth from his people's enemies, the Tyruss Combine, despite the fact that these foes have no knowledge of this remote region of space. Vanguard has made the most of his time and has become close allies with the world's superheroes, aiding them in battling against numerous threats. He and his robotic companion Wally continue to serve out their assignment, orbiting the earth from the safety of their large starship.

Jill August witnessed bullying from a very early age. Her mother was constantly being beaten by her father, friends at school were often assaulted by the coach. When she was assaulted by thugs in a Detroit bar and pushed backward into a dart board, she instinctively hurled darts and impaled the attackers with pin-point accuracy.

Jill took up the costumed guise of Dart upon discovering her deadly ability and quickly trained in a number of martial arts  skills to improve upon her natural talent. Dart began a respected career defending the city of Detroit, occasionally teaming with the self-obsessed Kill-Cat, who was convinced his female ally had a crush on him. It couldn't be further from the truth.

After about three years of service as a vigilante, Dart was hired away by the Chicago Police Department. While attempting to stop a massive super-villain jail break, she was overpowered by a villain that was attempting to sexually assault her. Another villain, the shark-man named Mako, witnessed this and killed the villain. (Mako had been unable to prevent the rape of his sister and refused to allow another to suffer this fate).

Mako was targeted for his betrayal but he managed to take Dart with him to an uncharted island in the Coral Sea.  About this time massive alien invasions occurred on Earth leading  Cyberface to take over the world.  Mako, falling for Dart, indulged in a bit of a lie by telling the heroine that the aliens eradicated civilization. Being alone on the island and thankful that Mako was her saviour the two began a relationship. 

Dart remained happily on this island home for years until three super humans washed up on the beach, having had their makeshift raft destroyed by a sea monster. The survivors--Barbaric, Horridus and Ricochet; pointed out to Dart that humanity still existed, although the world was under the control of the insanely powerful CyberFace.

Knowing that he could not keep his lover on this island, Mako steals an Atlantean vessel that takes them all back to the United States. Dart eventually breaks-up with Mako due to the falsehoods she had been told.

Mako grows desperate without Dart and abducts her back to the Coral Sea island . Dragon is informed and confronts Mako on his island.  A fight ensues and Dart is fatally wounded by Mako when he mistakenly thought that it was Dragon approaching him.

William Jonson served the Chicago Police Department for many years, becoming a detective of great skill and ability. He remained in this role until the Martian invasion of 1997 that pretty much decimated the planet, and caused the Chicago PD to disband and scatter.

Fearing a life serving CyberFace, who had seized power following the invasion, Jonson dug out the costume of the former vigilante known as Star.

William, with his lover and partner Rita Medermade, A.K.A the Red Giant, have remained in the Danger Zone as the area’s premiere defenders, protecting innocent civilians and cleaning up the area from the numerous gangs and monsters that roam within.
