Larissa, Lateefah and Lisette are three middle-aged women who conduct a "celebrity news" show. Larissa, a red-haired woman with an obnoxious attitude and who believes herself to be a fashion-specialist, is the head of the fashion section of the program, and is able to make anyone feel ugly and out of fashion; Lateefah, a black reporter, interviews the celebrities, usually destroying them in the process with her sharp questions; Lisette, a blonde ex-model, conducts the gossip part of the program, and usually manages to catch (and show) the most scandalous news about those whose reputation she wants to ruin. Together, they tear apart the lives of everyone who stands in her way, and their program's credibility almost guarantees that. Secretly, though, they command a powerful blackmail network with which they can make almost everyone make anything they wish (Usually deeds which are worse everytime, and that ensure that they always have available material, just in case).

In truth, the three women hate each other deeply. However, no network wants any of them without the other two, and thus they are forced to remain together, even though they can see each other for what they really are...

Marudemi Hayime is a Rokuman expert in biotechnology and robotics. He was a brilliant and talented student obsessed with creating prostethic limbs and organs that would allow people to cheat death. His knowledge is so advanced that it allowed him to create an entire autonomous entity from the scratch, which he called 'Adam'. Sadly, the experiment was financed (And manipulated) by Firan Zonan (I don't remember the name in this version, but you know who I am talking about), who inserted a special chip that would allow him to control the droid. When he first tried to do it, during the first public exhibition of the robot -which had a similar device, made by Hayime -, it cracked, going berserk and attacking everyone in the audience. Adam escaped, taking with him his "father's" daughter, who he was jealous of, taking efforts to make him believe she was dead. Hayime's wife, OTOH, was severely hurted, and the good engineer saw no problem in transforming her into a cyborg to prevent her death.

Somebody mentioned Vlad Drakov early on as a general of the Co.R.E.
I have to say that sounds too respectable for such a bloosy savage.
I would envision him as one of those Survivalists ala Michigan Militia mixed in with the whole live free or die biker mentality. I could almost see it now. the Falcons are a group of bikers/survivalists. Maybe Neo-nazis too.
I am embarrassed by the reference but the villains from Clint Eastwood's "Pink Cadillac" popped into my head.
I would try to see things from your point of view but I doubt that both of our heads would fit up your butt.
