Alpha Team

Axel

Age: 18

Axel Manning is the leader of A.T.O.M., and a master of the Jo-Lan martial art. Jo-Lan combines the body and mind, allowing each punch, kick, etc. to land with a burst of energy. When Axel was 8, his father, Sebastian Manning, was killed in an explosion by who was assumed to be Paine, but later found to be someone else. Axel still searches for the truth on what really happened.

Axel enjoys adventure and will push his body to its limits. Possibly the team's most level-headed member, Axel feels bad when he feels he put someone in danger and for a long time, blamed himself for his father's death. He and King become close friends and he also seems to have feelings for Lioness and has saved her numerous times because he is in love with her. He has a very muscular body with toned 6 pack abs, thick, well-defined pecs, and large, beefy arms. This can be seen in the Season 1 finale and Season 2 Episode 19.

During Season 1, Axel hated Paine for betraying and (he first assumed) killing his father. This and Paine's attempts to take over Landmark City, lead to many battles between the two before Paine was imprisoned again. In Season 2, when Mr. Lee's true intentions were revealed, Axel felt betrayed and promised he'd do everything in his power to stop him.

Axel has brown hair and gray eyes, his Alpha Team uniform is black and orange. He actually looks oddly similar to Paine. His personalized equipment include the Turboboard and the Thunderbike 3000. The only other family that he mentioned were his parents: father is held captive in Serpent's Tail's prison; his mother's fate remains unknown. His catchphrases are "Gear it up!" as well as yelling out the names of his techniques, whenever he uses them.

His four main Jo-Lan based attacks are:

King

Age: 19

Crey Kingston is also known as King is the oldest and a gentle giant with superhuman strength who is skilled in various forms of Wrestling such as Greco-Roman Wrestling, Submission Wrestling and pro-wrestling.King can rip through doors and walls with little effort; his power equals that of Axel when Axel uses his Jo-Lan special attacks. King also is tech savvy with computers, which he has shown on more than one occasion.

His father brought him to Blue Pines National Park in the outskirts of Landmark City. The experience changed him to the King that he is now. King also loves animals except for butterflies, which he's afraid of. He would almost go postal when animals are being mistreated in any way. King also has a numerous amount of exotic pets including a cat, Sparky the gopher, Clarence the Brazilian tree frog who turned out to be female and had many babies, Benny the porcupine and Fluffy the bat. He has also temporarily housed other animals at various periods of time and loves to nurse them back to health. Like Axel, he has a very muscular body.

King has a big appetite and eats enormous portions of food. His favorite eating establishment is "Captain Doughnut". Although he gets along pretty well with everyone on the team, Axel seems to be his closest friend. He is also the wrestling coach for the Landmark City School for the Gifted, his brother Duke's school.

In Season 1, King has battled Flesh scores of times with King being the usual victor because he's smaller, smarter and sightly faster. He also has tangled with Vinnie Rossi, once when he was human winning the WWC world title in a wrestling match. Then when he changed into Mass, he barely defeated him in a hospital.

King is bald, but has a black goatee and green eyes, his Alpha Team uniform is white and orange. His personalized equipment include the Power Ram and the Thunderquad 3000.

This is seen in season 2 when Duke under Lee's control, His catchphrase is: "Get out of my grill!"

Lioness

Age: 17

Catalina Leone the youngest in the team and is also known as Lioness is a talented Afro-Brazilian songwriter and singer who practices capoeira. Her agility and athletic ability make her a very effective fighter. she is not the unique girl of the Alpha Team, she can hold her own in battle and has exhibited more courage than the others, mainly Hawk and Shark.

Like Axel, Lioness thrives on challenge and will push her body to its limits. Lioness had two fears, Paine's powers and public speaking, both of which she overcame. She grew up with four brothers, named: Alexander, Antonio, Edvardo, and Fernando. So she understands how guys think and act. Lioness' father known as Thrash who is a superstar comes to visit her in one episode. She has a crush on Axel and is jealous of Magnes when she flirted with him. While deep down Lioness doesn't hate Hawk, she is probably the least tolerant of his boisterous ego. She is also part of a group of capoeira performers in her off time. Like the other members of the team she is very beautiful and she has very good physical health.

Lioness has fought and defeated Spydah on numerous occasions during Season 1. She also has developed a tense rivalry with Paine's daughter Magnus because of Axel.

Lioness has brown hair and gold eyes, and given the physical appearance of her father is probably mulatto. Her Alpha Team uniform is green and white. Her personalized equipment include the Tag Blaster and the MTX 9000. Along with her brothers, Lioness also has a cousin named Eliza, who came to visit once in the episode "Remote Control" and fancied Garrett. Her catchphrase is: "¡Vamos!"

Her probable prototype is Christie Monteiro from Tekken.

Hawk

Age: 18

Zack Hawkes, also known as Hawk, is a gifted test pilot who is more at home in the air than on the ground, both due to his piloting skill and his huge ego. He's not much of a hand-to-hand fighter. He has used a Muay Thai fighting stance more than once, getting knocked down each time he did it. He also was not able to swim until Lioness and a lifeguard named Laura taught him the basics. Like the other male members, he is very muscular.

Before his time with the Alpha Teens, Hawk was enrolled in a flight school where he developed a rivalry with another pilot named Bogey. They pushed each other to see who was the best pilot, but Bogey's actions almost got them both killed. Both men were expelled after Bogey blamed Hawk for the incident during an inquest.

Hawk's aforementioned ego annoys the rest of the team (and almost everybody else he meets) and sometimes is counterproductive on their missions. Because of this, he often strikes out with the ladies, including Lioness when he tried to pick her up when they first met. In spite of this, Hawk is very serious about protecting innocent lives as well as his piloting skills (e.g. he refuses to evacuate a damaged aircraft unless he makes sure it lands safely).

Hawk is a serious actor, when not fighting villainy or testing vehicles for Lee Industries. His two biggest claims to fame are starring in the sci-fi b-movie, "Radioactive Island" in the first season and advertising "Worrywart" wart cream in a TV commercial in the second; the latter he is teased for. He is also becoming a good friend to Shark, despite his clean freak nature contrasting with Shark's sloppiness.

Hawk has light red hair and green eyes; his Alpha Team uniform is blue and orange. His personalized equipment includes the Jetwing and the Rotarbike 3000. Hawk has parents and possibly more family, which he describes as one being "...more superficial than the next". His catchphrases are: "Hawk flies in, he saves the day" and "Oh yeah, who rocks?!".

Shark

Age: 18

Ollie Herbert Sharker is also known as Shark is a laid back surfer who is most at home in the water, although his awesome balance lets him be comfortable on just about any type of board. A student of oceanography, Shark's is a great asset during water-based missions or while testing water-based vehicles for Lee Industries. Like Hawk, Shark isn't really an accomplished fighter, but he is very skilled at evasion due to his knowledge of balance and the reflexes he gained from surfing. Like the other male members, his body is very built and has much of what the others have.

While most of the time, Shark is a calm and relaxed individual, he proved himself to be an effective leader when Axel was poisoned by Paine's men. Throughout the series, a connection is forming between him and Hawk despite his sloppiness and Hawk's clean freak nature and huge ego.

Shark has blond hair and blue eyes, his Alpha Team uniform is yellow and blue. His personalized equipment include the Scubashark and the Sharkski 3000. Shark's mother is his only reference to a family currently. His catchphrase is: "Shake the sand out of your shorts(, dude)".

Before the Alpha Team was formed, he developed Mr. Lee's vehicles and when he was of age, road tested them as well. When a turbo ATV that he constructed and test drove broke apart, he injured two people as well as himself. The other victims recovered, but Garrett was paralyzed from the waist down.

Now a paraplegic, he is equipped with a technologically advanced wheelchair that can extend its height and climb on walls and ceilings. Garrett was guilt ridden after the accident, refusing to drive another vehicle again. Axel and the others helped show how invaluable he was and how he needed to get over the past.

He would later help them capture Team Omega as well as a corrupt cop and corrupt judge that worked for Paine.

During Richter's attempt to catch Paine, Axel and his team interrupted it taking it upon themselves to stop him. After Paine escapes, Richter and Axel (who tries to capture Paine on the anniversary of his dad's death) go at each other's throats. When Axel captures Paine a day later, Richter still doesn't approve of Axel's methods, but is relieved that Paine is going back to prison.

Eliza

Eliza is Lioness's cousin; she is skilled in capoeira and is an engineering expert. The two cousins grew up together in Brazil and are close. Eliza didn't think that Lioness respected her. With her assistance, Garrett and the Alpha Teens defeated Paine from destroying Landmark City. She also saved Lioness from Spydah. Lioness offered Eliza the opportunity to live with the team. She declined, wanting to set her own path in life and not following Lioness' anymore. She was given a job with Lee Industries working on projects for Mr. Lee in South America. Shark and Hawk both liked her and fought over her. She decided she liked Garrett the most, who she went on her first date with before she left.

Duke

Duke Kingston is King's twelve-year-old brother who is enrolled in the Landmark City School for the Gifted, of which he has the highest IQ. During King's wrestling coaching at his school with Axel, King was mothering Duke, asking him if he took his asthma medication and not letting him be a volunteer for some of King's moves. When King, Axel and Hawk left the school, Mr. Lee and the Mu-Team made their move.

Lee hooked Duke and his classmates to a machine that drained the brain power from his classmates. transferring it into Duke. Duke became smarter than fifty Albert Einsteins and has ability to use telekinetic powers fifty times more powerful than the very small latent ability each human has. This process also turned Duke and the other students evil. This new evil side effect made Duke bitter at King for embarrassing him in front of his class.

He escapes with Lee and the Mu-Team back to his base. Lee needed an ultra-genius to help him create a working vehicle out of the hard light. To make it work, they needed a special type of crystalline moon rock from the Landmark City Observatory. At the observatory, Duke, Lee and the Mu-Team face off against the Alpha Teens. When Lee gets the moon rock he needed and he was able to form his hard light vehicle, he betrays Duke, because the Mu-Team started to get jealous of his genius.

Lee tries to use his new vehicle to run over Duke, but he uses his telekinesis to throw the vehicle into a pillar. Lee and the Mu-Team escape, but Duke is hit by the pillar and is knocked out cold. Garrett reversed what Lee had done to Duke and the other students and Duke are shown to be unharmed.
