The first six heroes to receive the upgrade.
An Upgrade is an extremely powerful process which, as the name suggests, upgrades Heroes to a more powerful, agile and all-around more heroic form.
The Process
In the Ordeal of Fire episode, the Upgrade was shown as an enhancement to the Assembly Tower, with lasers stripping the Heroes and altering their basic frame, after which the armor, cladding, and weapons were also added. In the Ordeal of Fire comic, the process was shown as a set of cloudy tubes, which the Heroes were strap into. These tubes were then energized, the material inside working with the energy to reshape their bodies into the upgraded forms.
