-Cylla was a pilot who was initially helping the X-Men, but was fatally-wounded in an airplane crash, and agreed to join Pierce's group if he saved her life. She was the sole survivor of the group alongside Lady Deathstrike once, but when trying to gain revenge on Wolverine for her condition, Bloodscream betrayed Cylla and sucked the life from her. She had a "Targetting Computer", which I think just brought her into line with the others (as a Pilot, she wouldn't normally be equal to a group of experienced gang members).

-Pretty Boy is a narcissist who played with an innocent woman's mind to create a financial advisor to the group; the woman later became Tyger Tiger, ruler of Madripoor. He shares a fate with Bonebreaker- dead for decades, then all of a sudden turned up alive. He tried to brainwash Sage to joining him, but she turned it back on him and turned Pretty Boy GOOD, then had him arrested. Pretty Boy can also "see" through computer links & phone lines, producing an odd Remote Sensing power, ensnare others with coils from his chest, and shock people.

I think Skullbuster there is by Adam or Andy Kubert (looks like stuff from Wolverine), but yeah, overall the Reavers are VERY Proto-Image-Era in style. Silvestri, who co-created the squad, was one of the first of that lot to hit big, doing a lot of "cyborgs covered in messy wires"- as his Wetworks book showed, he REALLY enjoyed drawing metal/robotic people.

I'm pretty sure the Reavers once fought the Punisher and actually kicked Frank's ass pretty well in their first encounter, leading to him prepping and getting body armor and the like

-Bonebreaker was the leader of the initial Reavers gang, ceding it to Donald Pierce. He's responsible for Wolvie supporting cast member Elsie-Dee gaining a huge amount of intelligence because he screwed up (she was suppose to have the intelligence of a five-year-old; he instead gave her the maximum possible), and was killed by Fitzroy's Sentinels, then reappeared in modern times. He is hacked apart by Wolverine and stabbed through the neck after killing some of Old Man Logan's friends.

Bonebreaker is definitely the most visually interesting of the group. This is why he’s probably the most famous and popular (and I use those terms in a relative sense) of the team. He stands out in a crowd, artists like to put him in the foreground of fight scenes, and so forth.

(He’s also clearly a long-lost RIFTS O.C.C.)

Headhunters and Combat ‘Borgs, and the thousand and one variants of those two that show up in the other books. Although, as far as I know, the only way to get the tank treads for legs of Bonebreaker is from the Heroes Unlimited Robot Hero O.C.C... But, I cannot claim to have read all 9,967 Palladium rulebooks.

Would it be cheating to just say Heroes Unlimited Mutant O.C.C.? :D

Wolverine is probably best represented by the Commando Mercenary O.C.C. from Ninjas & Superspies, use the "random chance" roll to Heroes Unlimited Super Powers from the Rifts Conversion Book. "Randomly" determine that he gets five Minor Powers, then "randomly" roll for: Claws, Healing Factor, Heightened Sense of Smell, Indestructible Bones, and Longevity. Then pile on the XP.

Nothing random about him hes a HU mutant with stocky and extra hair mutations, claws enhanced smell and healing factor minor powers with enhanced PP Strength and endurance as well. add ina few tricks from some of the Powers books and the commando or soldier of fortune form Ninjas and Super spies., with the add on of the expertimental hero which has a skeletal enhancement which you up grade to the unbreakable skeleton which is a minor power.

had a friend who ran Wolverine through a couple of Palladium HU adventures for the fun of it :)
