Thunder & Lightning

Real Name: Helmut and Johann Petersen
Background: In the waning days of the war, brothers Helmut and Johann Peterson served their Fatherland by volunteering for an experiment with a device invented by Dr. Omega called the Jupiter Chamber, intended to tap into the elemental forces of a thunderstorm. The Chamber worked only too well, imbuing the brothers with immense powers that they would use to strike at the Allies, including the Victory Squadron. However, over time, their wild, uncontrollable abilities drove them mad with power and they turned on their creators in an attempt to take over the Nazi empire.
Status: Unknown
Powers: Thunder was immensely strong and could project sonic waves that could shatter a foe. Lightning could generate powerful bolts of electricity that he could hurl at an enemy.
Skills: Before their immersion in the Jupiter Chamber, the Petersens were talented musicians and performers.
