He's also BTS in NDEF 133. He makes a phone call to the detective Typhoon. Speaking of which, neither she nor her husband are listed:

CUTLASS, OLIVER
NDEF 133
NDEF 148

TYPHOON (KWAN TAI FUNG)
NDEF 133
NDEF 148

She'd be Typhoon I if you prefer to number them, and the currently listed Typhoon (a First Line foe) would be Typhoon II.

Wasn't the First Line foe Typhoon active in the '60s, and this Typhoon in the modern era? If so, Kwan Tai Fung would be Typhoon II.

Good finds, people! :thumbsup:

Yes, true, so if you are going with when they were active vs when they debuted in the real world, then the numbers are the way you stated. This is, btw, another example of why a numbering system sucks. One retcon character inserted prior to existing ones, and all the existing numbers go out the window.

:D You don't have to tell me! I wrote Appendix entries on most of those other Ghost Riders.

Typhoon was her nickname wasn't it? It's not like she's a superhero/villain... something along the lines of: Kwan "Typhoon" Tai Fung...?

Yes, nickname.
