History
The Society of the Golden Wing was a secret society whose roots dated back to the American revolution and was founded by members of the Kendall family. (Nightwing v2 #145)
They maintained two distinct programs running concurrently in order to prevent any delays to the project and prevented them from being two years behind schedule. (Nightwing v2 #145)
After the kidnapping of the Mother of Champions, the Great Ten member was used to create the genetically engineered offspring of the golden society. These were funded by Talia al Ghul whose fear of her father Ra's al Ghul led her to developing numerous weapons at her disposal. (Nightwing v2 #145)
Overview
It was believed that once the Golden Society took wing that a new golden age would occur that would set the country back to its greatness. This was said to be based on their founding family's desire to give man the ability to fly. (Nightwing v2 #145)
The children were said to possess unique strength, endurance and speed though were not of the level shown by heroes like Superman. Testing revealed that the subjects within their late twenties had exhibited the strength of approximately 20 men. As adults, these creations of the society possessed wings giving them the power of flight. An issue with them was their accelerated lifespan that caused them to mature quickly but also led to them aging faster where in a 48 hour period a young adult could end up as an old man.
