The Great Ten, (Shi Hao Xia/å��è±ªä¾ ) are a team of Chinese comic book superheroes in the The DCU, who are sponsored by the government of the People's Republic of China. The team was introduced in 52 #6 (June 2006), and were created by Grant Morrison, J. G. Jones, and Joe Bennett. Several of the characters have a basis in Chinese Mythology. Unlike conventional superhero monikers, their names are close to literal translations from the Chinese language.Great Ten is also the title of a nine-issue mini-series focusing on the team published in 2010. It was originally planned to be a ten-issue title but was cut short due to low sales.Great Ten features examples of the following tropes: | |

Emergency Transformation: In order to save his life from a Durlan bacterial infection that had killed the rest of his squadron, August General in Iron received all sorts of experimental treatments until one of them cured him. The rusted plates take make up his skin are the result. | |

Captain Ethnic | |
| Great Ten (Comic Book) / int_272b44e | comment |
Captain Ethnic: The comics would probably be Banned in China, and they are supposed to be. Its members are heavily tied into Chinese Mythology and tradition and modern Chinese Communism, or at least the Western view of said. One of them is the Mother of Champions, whose whole superpower is based on rapidly producing litters of super-strong expendable children. The team was created not to be offensive per se, but the creator commentary for their reveal in 52 says that they were intended to be self-caricatures in a way. The writers were not trying to be offensive, but were deliberately making a team based on foreign perceptions of a culture and outside viewpoints. Maybe a Take That! against the comic industry as a whole? Of course, considering the Japanese teams also created by Morrison... | |

Non-Indicative Name | |
| Great Ten (Comic Book) / int_295087bf | comment |
Non-Indicative Name: Immortal Man in Darkness couldn't be a less accurate name if it tried because the technology of the plane he flies drains his life as he pilots it; there have been about seven Immortal Men in Darkness since the team was founded. The name is a publicity thing. Similarly, the Seven Deadly Brothers. "I am seven. I am deadly. But I am a brother to no one." This is because the Seven Deadly Brothers are actually one man, an only child at that, who splits into seven people with different personalities due to a curse. | |

Explosive Breeder | |
| Great Ten (Comic Book) / int_32956961 | comment |
Explosive Breeder: Mother of Champions is a human example. Her power is to conceive a litter of 25 children each time she has sex, who complete gestation in 3 days, after which she gives birth. These metahuman offspring are superhumanly strong, but age ten years for each day they're alive, so they are used as expendable cannon fodder by the Chinese government — she has no contact with them once they are born. She has apparently given birth to thousands of these offspring, sports a perpetual pregnant belly, and relies on a robotic chair with six insectile legs to carry her around, as she gets too large to walk on her own. | |

Express Delivery | |
| Great Ten (Comic Book) / int_68d326ff | comment |
Express Delivery: Mother of Champions' entire superpower is her ability to go from conception to birth in three days. She also gives birth to litters of kids with Super-Strength and who age ten years for every day they're alive. If she mates with one of her teammates, the offspring have other superpowers as well — though in the case of the radioactive Socialist Red Guardsman's children, the birth was painful unlike any she'd had before. | |

But I Can't Be Pregnant! | |
| Great Ten (Comic Book) / int_916ecb1 | comment |
But I Can't Be Pregnant!: This is part of Mother of Champions' backstory. She was incredulous when she discovered she was pregnant, for a number of reasons — one, because her husband had recently left her due to her inability to conceive, and two, because she was visibly pregnant the day after her drunken one-night stand. As it turns out, she'd developed a special, ahem, gift, giving birth to twenty-five boys days later. | |

Legacy Character | |
| Great Ten (Comic Book) / int_c9e5a0db | comment |
Legacy Character: Immortal Man in Darkness is not actually immortal; the technology that gives him his powers will eventually kill him, and they simply keep replacing him. The "Immortal" name is a publicity thing. When one dies, there's a whole set of guys waiting in the wings to replace him. "You are immortal now!" And yes, pilots line up for the privilege to fly the Dragonwing even after being informed that it will be the death of them; the latest describes the first time he saw the craft as "love at first sight". The Accomplished Perfect Physician is the seventeenth to bear the title and wield the powers of the greatest medical mind on the planet. Played with in that he's not the guy who was supposed to succeed the title; he was a soldier sent to beat back Tibetan dissidents and inadvertently killed the actual successor before being strongarmed into taking his place. | |

Captain Patriotic: Socialist Red Guardsman. While August General in Iron and Immortal Man in Darkness are also true patriots, Socialist Red Guardsman is the only member of the team to actually have Das Kapital and The Little Red Book committed to memory. Socialist Red Guardsman believes he is the revolution, and has frequently broken his back to ensure that his teammates toe the party line with his endless rants and lectures. He even attempted to quit the team in disgust at his country's growing commercialism. | |

Who Wants to Live Forever? | |
| Great Ten (Comic Book) / int_ea39d156 | comment |
Who Wants to Live Forever?: The Seven Deadly Brothers' powers are derived from a curse placed upon him, that he would have seven lifetimes of mastery in the martial arts. This gave him the ability to split into seven bodies that are each unparalleled grandmasters of a different style, but he is fated to live out all seven of those lifetimes. When he is one person, his mind is a jumble, housing so many different personae that all want different things; only when split and in combat does he know peace. He's been living with this for over 300 years, and he's got a lot more mileage in him yet. He admits, however, that he feels he deserves it. Contrast Immortal Man in Darkness, who will eventually be killed by the technology of the Dragonwing and replaced by another pilot. There are dozens of men waiting desperately in the wings for the chance. | |

Obvious Pregnancy | |
| Great Ten (Comic Book) / int_eb37290b | comment |
Obvious Pregnancy: Mother of Champions lives this trope. Then again, her metahuman power is the ability to conceive, safely carry and deliver inhumanly large litters of children (up to 25 babies in one pregnancy), and a secondary power is that gestation, from conception to birth, takes only three days. | |

Me's a Crowd: Seven Deadly Brothers is one guy who can split into seven copies, and each copy retains a certain skill set from the original. | |

Trick Arrow | |
| Great Ten (Comic Book) / int_ef0f881b | comment |
Trick Arrow: Celestial Archer doesn't technically use trick arrows, but because his bow is a peerless magical weapon created by the gods, he can basically do anything with his arrows anyway — for instance, he can create a bridge or walkway by shooting an arrow that leaves solid terrain behind it as it flies. | |

Power Degeneration | |
| Great Ten (Comic Book) / int_f03edab9 | comment |
Power Degeneration: Immortal Man-In-Darkness is a pilot bonded to the Dragonwing, an extremely advanced living fighter plane. Each flight of the Dragonwing takes a year off of the pilot's life. The government doesn't have a problem finding willing pilots — piloting the Dragonwing is considered a great honor and there are plenty of pilots waiting in reserve eager for their chance even though they know the price. | |

Cast from Lifespan | |
| Great Ten (Comic Book) / int_ff074ad4 | comment |
Cast from Lifespan: Piloting the Dragonwing takes at least a year of the lifespan of Immortal Man in Darkness, so when one of them dies, the next one in the squadron takes the title and duties. | |
