"She's right." said Roy in a matter-of-fact tone, "All we've got right now is standing in this room. But I aim to change that..." he unrolled a poster-board and tacked it onto one of the few places left on the wall that wasn't plastered with information about Patterson. He took a sharpie marker from the table and began writing the names from the list across the top of the poster. From left to right it read: Red Hood, Cheshire, Grace, Thunder, Deathstroke, Deadshot, and Calculator.
"Contacting some of these individuals won't be easy. Convincing them to help us will probably be even more difficult. But we have to start somewhere. I say we start right here..." he pointed to Red Hood's name with the sharpie then began writing some information underneath his name, starting with his real name: Jason Todd, "Red Hood, aka Jason Todd. A former Robin, taken in and trained by the Batman himself. He went rogue some time before Anarchy took over, apparently he had a falling out with Bruce, the details aren't clear to me. But the last time I heard anything, he's still in Gotham somewhere, plus he's one of the few heroes who managed to remain masked, as far as I know Anarchy never unmasked him." he skipped over Cheshire for now and gestured to the name Grace.
"Grace Choi. Metahuman. Her power? Enhanced strength. She and I go back a ways, I first met her when I was still going by Speedy. She was a bouncer for Chaney's, a bar in Metropolis. I don't know if she's still there, but it's worth looking into. We could use the extra muscle." as he talked, Roy wrote down some of the information he was telling under Grace's name, indicating that each would have a column of notes and contact info dedicated to them. He moved on to the next name.
"Anissa Pierce, aka Thunder." Roy jotted her real name underneath the codename, "She's a meta with considerable lightning powers. Her father is Jefferson Pierce, aka Black Lightning. You may have heard of him. I'm afraid I don't know much beyond that, but a lightning meta would be pretty helpful against Anarchy's tech." after jotting down those notes, he moved on.
"Slade Wilson..." Roy said, almost with a bit of hesitation, "...but you probably know him better as Deathstroke the Terminator. Wilson joined the military at a young age, where he was later recruited for an experimental super soldier project that gave him enhanced combat skills and a healing factor. He went rogue sometime later, selling his deadly skills to clients who could afford them. He's been a known menace to both the Justice League and the Titans." that certainly explained why Roy knew this much about him, having dealt with the man personally alongside the Teen Titans, "Slade isn't the kind of man who would bend a knee to Anarchy. I can almost guarantee he's still out there somewhere."
"Floyd Lawton, aka Deadshot." Roy had moved on to the next name, "After shooting and killing his brother, Floyd went became one of the world's deadliest snipers. He calls himself Deadshot, and is a crackshot with just about any firearm you can imagine. He may have started as a contract sniper, but he's spent more than enough time on Cadmus's "Task Force X" that I know he's capable of doing good as well. Someone with a sharp eye like his would be ideal as a lookout for operations."
"The Calculator..." Roy said, having moved on, "...the best hacker on the planet, or at least that's what he thinks of himself. His real name is Noah Kuttler, but don't let the ego fool you, Kuttler really is one of the best hackers out there. In fact it's a toss up whether he or Oracle is the best. Needless to say, having an "Oracle" of our own would be invaluable. That's assuming of course that Anarchy hasn't hired him first. But I know Kuttler's type, he won't want to stay in a cubicle for long. Sooner or later he'll want out, to be independent again. That's when we make our offer to him."
Since it became apparent that he ignored Cheshire, Roy finally said, "Leave Cheshire to me. She's an assassin, one of the best there is. I'll get in touch with her myself, besides... if I know her she won't want to talk with anyone besides me anyway."
