Main storyEdit
- This is a list of characters from the main story, taking place in the late 20th century.
- Khan Noonien Singh
- Gary Seven

- Victor Lozinak
- Ralph Offenhouse
- Wilson Evergreen
- Scientist from mid 20th century Earth. After surviving a lethal attack by a fourteen-year-old Khan, Dr. Evergreen explained that he was born in 6000 BC Mesopotamia, which in conjunction with listing several past aliases indicates that he is the immortal Flint. Evergreen's work included manipulating Earth's magnetic field via a geostationary satellite. This method would make possible the preservation of Earth's ozone layer in the face of CFC abuse by man. Gary Seven eventually persuaded him to destroy everything related to his work as the device could also be used as a weapon to create holes in the ozone layer over an enemy nation. Evergreen left the ozone hole unrepaired to remind humanity that there were consequences to their reckless behavior, and to encourage a move toward a peaceful, responsible, more enlightened era.
