HISTORY

The woman only known as Rosie was a bar owner in New Orleans before she became the leader of the Demolition Team, who first made their presence known when Congressman Jason Bloch hired them to destroy Ferris Aircraft. Later, they also appeared as environmental activists and had a run-in with the Blood Pack. Since then, the Demolition Team seems to have returned to its old purely criminal ways, as Rosie was seen as part of Circe's army of female super-villains.

Rosie was selected to merge into the being Enginehead, but was released along with the others who had become part of this composite being. After reforming, an OMAC wiped out the Demolition Team and destroyed their weapons. Whether there are any survivors and whether the Team's death will be avenged is unclear.
