The Goliath Chronicles

Brooklyn inadvertently allowed a group of criminals to escape. Goliath reacted angrily to his second-in-command's mistake, causing Brooklyn to run away from the clan. After assisting a group of human runaways against Radar, Brooklyn returned. ("Runaways")

Brooklyn played a critical role in winning over humanity once and for all when Angela and Bronx were captured after apparently the rest of the Clan was murdered in a grand trap designed by John Castaway. While the survivors were being transported on a passenger train to a prison, the Quarrymen led by Castaway himself attacked the train, only to face the rest of the Clan who arrived to save their brethren. In the battle and in front of human witnesses, Castaway made the train race out of control towards a bridge he had destroyed, vowing to kill everyone on it.

Although Goliath detached the locomotive car, the remaining cars with their sabotaged brakes obviously would not stop in time. However, while the leader ordered the clan to extract as many passengers as they can, Brooklyn asserted that it was possible to save them all. To do so, he ordered three Quarryman jetpacks embedded in the lead car to act as retro-rockets to stop the train. The gambit was successful and the train was saved.

As a result, Brooklyn's solution created a spectacularly successful rescue that convinced humanity of their intelligence and heroism and ended their persecution. ("Angels In the Night")
