More than they probably should, but not nearly as much as some of his superiors would like. Vance, meanwhile, was more than prepared to allow these heroes some measure of privacy.
"A good question, Mr. Palmer," he replied. "I won't say there's no catch, because that'd be lying, but I think you'll find this offer comes with very few strings attached. The major one is simply that you cooperate with us. We're looking to be in the business of telling you what to do, you're super-heroes, not agents and not soldiers. But when we present missions to you, we'd like you to at least consider them.
As for the rest... Also good questions. The first answer being simply, that you are, for the most part, an unknown set of quantities. That gives you a certain tactical edge in most situations. Your friends in the Justice League itself play for the big games, and we're grateful for them. But you folks can play just as well in the more Earthbound, smaller circles. We like that level of connectedness. A people's League. THUNDER's policy, unlike the DEO or the Department of Metahuman Affairs, has always been one of cooperation with the super-human community. We're all in the same game, after all.
My superiors are also, admittedly, interested in a League that crosses certain borders. A Norwegian-American, a Chinese-American, a Morlaidh-American, an Irish legacy hero, a Green Lantern, and a pair of American heroes plays rather well with various audiences."
