Mr. Smartie Notes: add more information (if we can about these early years) Family Bonds and Unions The second generation includes Dr. Furst's adopted children (Nikolai/Nick Furst and Natalie Furst), the twin offspring of one of Dr. Furst's ex-wives and Kaspian, prince of the eastern European Beast-Men, who is a recurrent foe of the First Family. The twins can manipulate an unusual form of energy. When Natalie married Rex Zorus, the powerful, dinosaur-like son of another longtime enemy, Madame Majestrix, he joined the group as well. Over a decade later, Nick married as well, wedding one Darcy Conroy.
