The Gate City Superhero Movement (GCSM) was a group of Real Life Superheroes based out of the Castleberry Hill neighborhood of Atlanta, Georgia.[1] Their founder and leader was Crimson Fist, who has since moved on to serve in California. All other members have retired from superheroics as of 2014.
History
The team first began in 2009, as a partnership between Crimson Fist and Metadata. 2011 saw the group welcome in a number of supporting members. In April, Bird became the official martial arts instructor of the group, and his dojo was frequently utilized as a base of operations for patrols. June saw the addition of parkour instructor Hermes. Weatherman joined in August, serving as an oracle for the team. August also saw the brief addition of Tha Force (then operating under the moniker of Modern Justice) briefly join the patrol team for a few patrols, though he did not officially become a member at that time. Similarly, Deadbolt briefly aligned with the group in September of 2012, but did not become a member.
In April of 2013, Crimson Fist was approached by Phoenix Jones with an offer to head an Atlanta-based branch of the Rain City Superhero Movement. [2] At this point, the team officially became the Gate City Superhero Movement, with Tha Force and Deadbolt officially joining as full-time members. The team primarily conducted patrols of the Castleberry Hill and West End neighborhoods of Atlanta. The relationship between the team and the RCSM would prove to be tumultuous, leading to the decision to withdraw from the RCSM network in August of the same year. [3] Shortly after the departure from RCSM, Deadbolt and Tha Force would retire from patrolling. Metadata would follow suit in 2014, leaving Crimson Fist to dissolve the patrol group and return to solo work.
