Two more Superheroes brought to life from the pages of Zenith, both of which have been created using Eldritch Foundry

Not Reverse Flash but Streamline! Originally a Golden Age Superhero, he had his own comic in the 1940's but despite being billed as 'Britains Superman; he never made it past issue 4.

Before Magneto there was Captain Magnet! From the pages of Super Duper Comics, he was an OSS agent and gained powers to help him fight the Nazi's. He had magnetic power along with super-strength,  near invulnerability and could fly.
