Project Cadmus
Project Cadmus is a research facility whose primary base is located on the outskirts of Metropolis.  Founded by the former Newsboy Legion for the express purpose of returning their beloved guardian, Jim Harper, also known as the Guardian, the Project was briefly exploited by Darkseid and corrupt former director Dabney Donovan, and created another of "clones" with genetically altered DNA called DNAliens.

The next major Project director was Paul Westfield, who maintained an antagonistic relationship at best with the cloned Guardian (who had become head of security) and the cloned Newsboy Legion.  Following the death of Superman, it was Westfield who spear-headed an initiative to clone Superman, which resulted in the young Superboy.  Westfield later claimed to have been the genetic donor for much of Superboy's DNA, but this was later proven to be false information.

During a period of extreme distrust of super-heroes, the Project was nationalized by the government and went to war with the Justice League, creating, among other things, a clone of Supergirl.  Several important Project figures, many of whom were friends of Superman, quit during this period.  During this time the hero known as the Question was captured while investigating the Project and tortured by Doctor Moon.  After the end of the conflict with the League, the Project was disbanded for a time.

At some point after this, the Project was again acquired by private investors, including Niles Caulder.  It continues to be a scientific think tank, pushing the boundaries of science and genetics with the stated purpose of improving the world for everyone and is the go-to organization for investigating scientific phenomena. 

Three individuals, each the victim of a tragic accident and each helped in some way by the Project, have become the Project's new field team, also known as the Doom Patrol.  They are advised by Niles Caulder.


Niles Caulder (the Chief)
Allegedly responsible for the accidents that created the first Doom Patrol (Cliff Steele, Larry Trainor, and Rita Farr), the Chief nevertheless lead them in battle for several years against various forces of evil.  He would later claim that he had grown too close to them and purposefully lead them to their deaths.  Reports of these deaths, however, were greatly exaggerated, and the Chief would continue on to form and lead several other incarnations of the Doom Patrol.

Now, the Chief works with--or for, he is rather circumspect on this--Project Cadmus.  As ever, he remains one of the most brilliant men on the planet, having designed Doll-Woman's robotic body, Plasmoid's containment bandages, and Sucker Punch's gloves.

Dubbilex
A DNAlien created by the Project many years ago, and a friend of Jimmy Olsen, Superman, and Superboy, Dubbilex left the Project during the time in which it conducted its war on the Justice League, but returned in more recent years with the promise of securing more rights and freedoms for some of the other Project creations.

Dubbilex possesses considerable telepathic powers.

Jim Harper (The Guardian)
Cloned from the DNA of the Golden Age Guardian, this Guardian is at best count the sixth or seventh Guardian clone to work for Project Cadmus as its security director.  Seemingly lacking in some of the rebellious spirit the older clones possessed, this Guardian's first loyalty appears to be to the Project.

The Guardian is a superb fighter and carries an indestructible shield.

Emil Hamilton
A one time friend and scientific adviser to Superman, Hamilton later became convinced that Superman was a potential threat to the planet and joined Cadmus during its period of conflict with the Super-Human community.  He was convinced to stay on when other hands took over the Project.
