The Doppel Gang

A criminal gang that assumes the forms, right down to DNA and fingerprints, of other individuals.

History

On April 26, 1967, disguised as famous celebrities, including Lyndon Johnson, Elizabeth Montgomery and Jimi Hendrix, the Doppel Gang committed a series of bank heists. In the course of one robbery, they fought the Silver Agent.

Seven years later, defense lawyer Vince Oleck used that and various other super-crime stories to establish reasonable doubt in the trial of a mob boss's guilty son. ("Knock Wood")

Powers

They have the ability to mimic people, whether through supernatural means or technological means.
