The E.D.I. consisted of superhumans as byproducts of the modern European Super-Soldier Program, representing to their European nations, all of whom are empowered with exo-suits designed by the E.D.I.'s co-founder and director Professor Sir James Braddock, who oversees the the E.D.I. super soldier program alongside fellow founder Daniel Merlyn, and led by Professor Braddock's son, taking up the heroic moniker of Captain Britain. The E.D.I. was just as advanced as the American agency, having due to their very effective combination of independent developers and government-sponsored programs.
