SAY IT AIN'T SO....THE SYNDICATE
HAILS HYDRA !!
I
OF COURSE THIS ISN'T AN OFFICIAL UPDATE ABOUT WHERE THE SYNDICATES LOYALTY LIES BUT WITH THE RECENT CAPTAIN AMERICA " HAIL HYDRA" MEMES, I WANTED TO HAVE A LIL' FUN BY HAVING THE BLOOD SYNDICATE REVEAL THEMSELVES AS SLEEPER AGENTS LIVING IN THE MILESTONE UNIVERSE. WE SYNDICATE FANS KNOW THAT THE SYNDICATE ARE LOYAL AND WOULD NEVER BETRAY THEIR FELLOW EARTH M FRIENDS. BUT IF THEY WERE TO EVER TURN THEIR BACKS ON MILESTONE AND WENT OFF TO BE WITH ANOTHER COMIC COMPANY I'D SAY: "IT'S ABOUT DAMN TIME!!" THE BLOOD SYNDICATE ARE THE STEP CHILDREN OF THE MILESTONE FAMILY (NO DISRESPECT TO ANY STEP CHILDREN...YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN...RIGHT? ). ANYWAY...THEY WERE ALWAYS CONSIDERED THE OUTSIDERS AND WERE THE FIRST OF THE ORIGINAL MILESTONE SERIES THAT WAS CANCELLED. FOLLOWING MILESTONE FOREVER, WE SAW FUTURE APPEARANCES FROM MILESTONE ORIGINALS SUCH AS HARDWARE, STATIC, AND ICON & ROCKET. STATIC NOT ONLY RECEIVED HIS OWN COMIC BOOK SERIES, BUT WAS ABLE TO TEAM UP WITH BLACK LIGHTNING AS WELL AS BECOME A FEATURE ON THE HIT TV CARTOON SERIES:
YOUNG JUSTICE ALONG WITH ICON & ROCKET, WHO ALSO WERE FEATURED
ON THE SHOW. HARDWARE, WHO WAS LAST SEEN IN THE NEW STATIC SERIES IN 2012, ALSO TEAMED UP WITH THE BLUE BEETLE AND WAS FEATURED WITH THE SHADOW CABINET IN THE JUSTICE LEAGUE. WHERE WAS THE SYNDICATE IN ALL OF THIS?!? NOT EVEN ONE MEMBER WAS FEATURED IN ALL THESE OUTLETS. A TEAM CONSISTING OF AT LEAST TEN MEMBERS AND NOT ONE WAS ABLE TO EXIST WITH OTHERS FROM THEIR UNIVERSE*. NOW
KNOWN AS EARTH M. I WROTE IN A POST ON THIS SITE (AND A FEW OTHER SITES) THAT JIM LEE SHOULD FIND A WAY TO BRING BACK THE SYNDICATE. NOW 5 YEARS LATER, MILESTONE MEDIA IS REPORTEDLY RETURNING TO THE COMIC WORLD AS MILESTONE 2.0 AND WILL FOCUS ON ALL THEIR ORIGINAL CREATIONS. NOW FOR SOME WEIRD REASON, I DON'T THINK THE SYNDICATE WILL BE AMONG THE CHARACTERS RETURNING. MAYBE IT'S
BECAUSE OF THE DIVERSITY OF THE CHARACTERS AND IN THIS DAY AND AGE ISN'T LIKE ANYTHING IN COMICS. I THINK THE SYNDICATES DIVERSITY WOULD FIT PERFECTLY IN THIS DAY AND AGE..OR MAYBE IT'S WHAT THE SYNDICATE REPRESENTED FOR MAJORITY OF THEIR THREE YEAR SERIES RUN. LETS NOT FORGET THAT THEY
WERE A STREET GANG THAT WOULD KILL AND STEAL IF NECESSARY. THE SYNDICATE WERE WORKING ON BECOMING HEROES BUT UNFORTUNATELY THE SERIES ENDED BEFORE THAT COULD HAPPEN. THE SYNDICATE FINALLY DECIDED THEY WERE HEROES IN MILESTONE FOREVER (THEIR LAST RECORDED APPEARANCE IN A COMIC BOOK). THAT WAS SIX YEARS AGO!! WE HAVEN'T SEEN THESE DUDES SINCE. I'M THE ONLY PERSON IN THE WORLD ( OK OK I'M EXAGGERATING A LITTLE BIT... BUT JUST A LITTLE!!) THAT HAVE KEPT THE BLOOD SYNDICATE RELEVANT. AS YOU CAN READ FROM MY ABOVE STATEMENTS...THE SYNDICATE GOT NO LOVE FROM THE BIG WIGS AT DC OR MILESTONE . SO I WOULDN'T BLAME THE SYNDICATE FOR SH*TTING ON MILESTONE/DC AND HAILING THE CRIMINAL ORGANIZATION KNOWN AS HYDRA. I GET IT. THE SYNDICATE ARE VIEWED AS THUGS, GANGSTERS, CRIMINALS, & KILLERS (AFTER HELPING TO SAVE THE WORLD MORE THAN ONCE)ON EARTH M. SO CAN YOU REALLY BLAME THEM IF THEY EVER DECIDED TO HAIL ANOTHER ORGANIZATION IN A TOTALLY DIFFERENT UNIVERSE THAT WOULD ACCEPT THEM?
I WOULDN'T BLAME THEM AT ALL. HAIL HYDRA!!
* AQUAMARIA, BRICKHOUSE, FADE, & TECH LIKENESS WERE FEATURED ON STATIC SHOCK CARTOON 2004

The Blood Syndicate is a multicultural gang street gang of superpowered metahumans operating out of Paris Island, in Dakota City. Most of its members received their powers in the "Big Bang", when a tear-gas laced with Quantum Juice was used to dispel a massive gang riot, killing many and unlocking the metagene in an elite and surviving few. Its members are compiled from the remnants of several other street gangs, including the Paris Island Bloods and the Force Syndicate, hence their title being a compilation of both names. The team has been through several changes since first coming together. Originally, the leader was now deceased member Tech-9, followed by Wise Son, then Holocaust, and finally Wise Son regains his status as HNIC of The Syndicate.
The Blood Syndicate is created by Dwayne McDuffie, Denys Cowan, & Ivan Velez for Milestone Media and published by DC Comic

PLAYING WIT' FIRE - CHAPTER FOUR - "BURN BABY BURN"
Dakota City, Midwestern USA
After the Syndicate finally appears to be getting the upper hand on Holocaust, he threatens to go super nova in an attempts to destroy everything and every one. During this attempt, he is pounded by the fists of Third Rail and Brick-House whom constantly knocks Holly down every time he attempts to fight back. Aqua-Maria then fired a hydro blast @ the weakened Holly which pushes him back towards a wall. As Holly is being pushed backwards, a portal opens up behind him and begins to suck him into it. Unbeknownst to the other Syndicate members, during his unexpected exit with Oro, Wise-Son got in contact with Cornelia and Eddie to help them deal with this “fire hazard” from afar. Wise Son along with his teammates seemed relieved as it appears that Holocaust was suck into the portal with no way to return. But seconds before the portal closes, Holocaust begins to fly out of the portal and fires a blast towards Dogg as Fade punches Holly in the face. Flash-Back screams “Flash-Back” before Holly is out of the portal and the blast strikes Dogg.
The time disruption between the siblings overlaps and connect resulting in another time freeze. The only two people moving at a regular pace are Flash Back and a now solidified Fade, as he’s no longer at this moment, a “blip” in time. The two Syndicate members’ fly towards a time froze Holocaust and begins to push him further back into the Portal. Knowing that the time freeze can be over anytime now; Flashback flies and grabs Dogg from where he stood as a fireball is still being fired in his direction. When the time freeze stops, Holocaust is sucked into the Portal on the wall as his pyro blast hits the ground and the portal closes. The team stands guard as they’re expecting Holly to fly out the wall shooting fire at everyone and anything that’s in front of him. But surprisingly….nothing happens. Several of the Syndicate is stunned as to what is going on here? Then they get their answer as Cornelia and Eddie pops up from hiding, though they remained close by. When asked where the two kids sent Holocaust, Cornelia states “You guys should ask Hannibal because it was his idea.” As Wise is about to speak, he is interrupted by Dogg who tells the others it was “actually” his idea to send Holly somewhere he wouldn’t be able to survive. “Ok Dogg, Where is that exactly?” asks Third Rail. Dogg responds “Well since you asked so nicely…the answer to your question Mr. Rail, is Space. Space is the place Holocaust’s not likely to survive...at all.”
Then Boogies asks: “This dude survived being trapped in the Earths’ core. What makes you think he can’t survive Space?!?” Dogg lets him know the answer to that as well by stating “Well Boogie, they say in Space, there is no oxygen, and without oxygen there’s no Fire and without either, there’s no Holocaust it?”. Boogie respond stating: “ Hmm… I think you basically said: "we won.”...right?". “Yeah we won. We just beat m*thaf***ing Holocaust.” says Wise Son which results in an exhausted team known celebrating their apparent defeat of Holocaust. Wise Son praises his teammates for working together against such a powerful foe, protecting the people of Dakota, and getting the win. Wise then questions Flashback about how Dogg moved from" here" to being in Flashback's arms. Fade and Flashback looks at one another than begin to chuckle. “What’s so damn funny?” ask Wise Son. Fade looks at Wise and ask “ Would you believe me if I told you that we stopped time, grabbed Dogg before he became on fire and were able to push Holocaust deeper into the portal?” Wise looks back at Fade, his sister, his son, and the rest of his teammates then said: “Well hell man…I’ve seen a little girl who can turn into a giant ancient Chinese warrior, women made of Bricks and Water, and a talking dog. So with that being said…anything is possible.”. The team begins to laugh and enjoy their defeat of an adversary as powerful and psychotic as Holocaust.
Later that evening on the news, Rob Chaplik reports how the Syndicate saved the city and quite possibly the world from a power driven mad man followed by footage of the Syndicate celebrating the fact they were able to defend the city by taking out Holocaust.
EPILOGUE: In Space, An unidentified flying object soaring through the milky way suddenly stops next to what appears to be a lifeless and floating object, but is actually a beaten and dying Holocaust. The space ship then beams a light on Holly, opens a door, and pulls him into the ship through the door as the light disappears and then fly off.
