Organization History
The group known as the "New Purple Gang" first appeared following the Battle of Detroit. They like to pride themselves as being "old fashioned mobsters", just like the original "Purple Gang" terrorized Detroit in the 1920's and 1930's.
The group was first seen in Westside's Little Italy district hassling the rows of Italian restaurants for "protection money". They quickly spread to the nearby stores, expanding their scope and the crimes they were willing to commit. Perhaps the most arrogant of crimes is to shake down tourists who hang around the park just outside the Renaissance Center and charge people for "sightseeing fees" for the "privilege" of looking over Westside.
Today the New Purple Gang are ready and willing to deal with any crime except in drugs. (The reason why they have refrained from drug-dealing remains to be seen.) Their scope extends beyond Westside into parts of City Center. It is said that they have a rivalry with both VIPER and the psionic group known as PSI. Their rivalry with VIPER is over territory, while their hatred of PSI has more to do with the Gang's leader, Kevin Poe.

(Please see their Champions Online Wiki entry for more information... before they do something you'll regret.)
The New Purple Gang were first seen in "Future's Guardian" #2.
