The Life of Tobias
First Appearance: DC Comic's first edition of Black Lightning in 1977
Creators: Tony Isabela and Trevor Von Eeden (comic book writers and artists)
Tobias Whale is an African American kingpin with albinism, who works his way up from the rackets to head the Metropolis branch of the 100. A school teacher named Jefferson Pierce speaks out against the 100's drug trafficking, and, as a response, they make an example of one of his students: Earl Clifford. Joey Toledo leads his men into attacking Earl and hits him with a car. Seeking to avenge the murdered student and receiving help from his tailor friend Peter Gambi, Pierce becomes Black Lightning and attacks Joey and his men. After defeating his henchmen, Joey Toledo is grabbed by Black Lightning, who arranges for Toledo to meet him at Garfield High School's gymnasium to inform on the 100 to him.
When Black Lightning meets with Joey Toledo, Malcolm Merlyn also appears after being hired by Toledo to kill Black Lightning. Their fight is crashed by Talia al Ghul and the league of Assassins, who are after Merlyn since he left the group after failing to kill Batman. The resulting battle ended with Joey Toledo being killed by a League of Assassins operative. Afterwards, Pierce is so successful in avenging Earl's death that Tobias Whale is sent to jail.
After breaking out of prison some months later, Whale teams up with Syonide II to distribute a new highly addictive drug. The drug's formula was supposedly in the possession of a woman named Violet Harper. Tobias sends Syonide to retrieve the formula. Unable to gain any information or find any trace of the formula, Syonide kills Harper. Violet Harper is later revived when an Aurakle possesses her lifeless body, and comes to be known as Halo. Once he learned of Harper's resurrection, Tobias assumed that she must have memorized the formula. But since Harper had no memories from before her death, a frustrated Syonide killed her parents during the Outsiders' fight with Tobias Whale's henchmen.
Mace In The Media
First Appearance: "The Silver Falcon" the nineteenth episode of Disney's animated series, Gargoyles which first aired September 12, 1995.
Creators: Frank Paur (television director) Greg Weisman (screenwriter and comic writer)
Mace Malone was Dominic Dracon's 's partner in crime during the 1920's, but in 1924, some time after he had joined the Illuminati, the society decided he was irreplaceable, forcing him to drop out of the public eye. When Malone disappeared, he gave the Illuminati a large stash of stolen diamonds as his admission fee without giving Dominic his share of the plunder. Mace set up various bogus clues to the location of the diamonds to mock his former partner.
Mace was able to survive well into the 1990's thanks to the Illuminati, having the deserted Hotel Cabal as his domain. One of the few times he appeared in public was when he attended to the funeral of his wife, Flo Dane. With help from Mace's stepson Jack Dane and Matt Bluestone were able to track Mace down visiting his late wife's grave in 1995. Mace informed Matt that the Illuminati had been aware of his efforts to find them for some time and offered him a place within the society if he could pass a loyalty test: To bring them a gargoyle to the Hotel Cabal.
Bluestone brought Malone Goliath, but secretly was assisting Goliath's escape from the treacherous hotel. During the confusion, Malone dropped his key, and was trapped in his own machination. The Illuminati left Mace to die inside the hotel.
The Illuminati are often seen being deceptive and manipulative with their lower echelon members, since they had been observing Matt Bluestone for some time they might have been aware of the fact that he would never have been loyal to them but decided that his formidable investigative skills combined with his connection to the gargoyles would have made him a valuable asset worth manipulating. Therefore, it is possible that the Illuminati were aware of the fact that Matt let Goliath escape the Hotel Cabal and even anticipated it but decided that it was Mace's responsibility to anticipate and stop it himself. The Illuminati might have thought that Mace being trapped in the Hotel Cabal was an appropriate punishment for allowing himself to be outsmarted. Martin Hacker's statement to Matt "Your job was to get Goliath to the Hotel Cabal, it wasn't your fault Mace couldn't hold on to him." combined with the fact that the Illuminati's membership is kept at a constant 666, suggests that the Illuminati figured only one of them would leave the Hotel Cabal alive.
Dominic's Documentary
First Appearance: "The Silver Falcon" the nineteenth episode of Disney's animated series, Gargoyles which first aired on September 12, 1995.
Creators: Frank Paur (television director) Greg Weisman (screenwriter and comic writer)
Dominic Dracon was the head of a prominent crime family in Manhattan, he passed the role down to his grandson, Tony Dracon. He has taken the alias G. F. Benton.
Dominic and Mace Malone were partners in crime during the 1920's, until Malone disappeared with the goods he and Dracon had recently stolen. Dracon searched for years for Malone and the stolen diamonds to no avail. Years later, under the alias G. F. Benton, Dracon moved into his old office, and ran it as a museum, looking for some clue as to the diamonds' location.
In 1995, the elderly Dominic and his grandson, Tony, followed clues in an old letter from Mace that suggested the stash of diamonds were buried in the foundations of Mace's old nightclub, the Silver Falcon. During their search for the diamonds, Tony captured detective Matt Bluestone, who had come to wrong conclusions concerning his search for the Illuminati Society. Dominic, as "G. F. Benton" was visited by Matt's worried partner, Eliza Maza, gave her sufficient information to lead her to the Silver Falcon nightclub, and then informed Tony of her arrival so she could be captured as well. However, it turned out the stash of jewels was not under the nightclub, merely a mocking letter from Mace saying: "Right idea, wrong falcon". Elisa deduced that the letter from Mace was actually referring to a statue of a falcon on a building visible from Mace's old office. When Tony and his men arrived there with Elisa and Matt, Elisa managed to defeat them with Broadway's help. Dominic then revealed himself to Elisa and tried to get the jewels from her, only to see that the case hidden inside the falcon statue merely contained marbles and another letter from Mace saying: "I feel sorry for you, DD. You still haven't learnt crime doesn't pay. Your old partner Mace." Dominic was arrested along with his grandson afterwards.

Xanatos's holdings include Xanatos Enterprises, Gen-U-Tech, the Scarab Corporation, and Pack Media Studios. Despite his father's belief that Xanatos did not deserve the gift that had launched his career, Xanatos continued to claim that he would one day prove himself a self-made man.

Five New Tesla Models Coming Soon
Tesla has five vehicles in production: Model 3, Model Y, Model S, Model X and Cybertruck. The Tesla Semi is under pilot production but Musk said at the meeting that he approved volume production plans for the Semi last week.
The company is building a high-volume Semi factory at Giga Nevada with the first vehicles planned for late 2025. For external customers, vehicles will start rolling out in 2026, Tesla executive Lars Moravy confirmed at the company's first-quarter earnings call in April.
The tease of a new vehicle comes amidst concerns about Tesla’s aging lineup and dropping sales. Tesla reported an 8.5% year-on-year decline in first-quarter deliveries with 386,810 vehicles delivered across the world, marking the first time that the company has seen quarterly deliveries fall since the second quarter of 2020 when the Covid-19 pandemic impacted production.
Tesla’s latest entrant -the Cybertruck – is a more high-end offering, with the higher-end variant called the Cyberbeast starting at around $100,000.
