** Psi-Hawk reappeared in ''ComicBook/TheUltimates2015'' as Emmett Proudhawk, the psionic ghost-god member of the Eternity Battalion, who could be summoned by said group giving up all their powers and allowing him to walk the world once more. He was powerful enough to fight on a conceptual level alongside the likes of Galactus.

* HealingHands: This is the paranormal ability of Anastasia Inyushin.
* HeelFaceTurn: Thomas Boyd.
* HollywoodAutism: Johnny Do is stated to be autistic in-story. He is nonverbal, can barely communicate, and is cared for by Thomas Boyd.

* HalfTheWomanSheUsedToBe: Rodstvow catches Gatto di Sangue with a swing of his arm, which is wrapped in his usual energy field. It neatly sears her in half at the waist.

* {{Fingore}}: Stasi uses a makeshift tripwire to ambush the Medusa Web's FragileSpeedster, Relampago. It works, but Stasi's holding one end of the cord and the impact also severs several of her fingers. [[GoodThingYouCanHeal Good Thing She Can Heal]].

The New Universe was initially billed as “the world outside your window”, a more realistic setting which was identical to the real world until a single MassEmpoweringEvent granted some people superpowers. All of Psi-Force gained their abilities from that "White Event", which occurred a few weeks before the first issue - although some of also had very faint glimmerings of psychic ability prior to that.

A new version of Emmett Proudhawk briefly appeared in the ''ComicBook/{{Newuniversal}}'' reboot of the New Universe concept, although that series was CutShort before his storyline could progress.
