Basically, part of the second "volumes" plot deals with various groups wanting to recruit the group.
The main hero organization's (USHA) which was forming a west coast team has control over the Getty Center. However, they are not going to try to recruit the characters and will actually serve as rivals.

I was debating if one of the organizations (UNSHTI) was going to have a base on the west coast and if they were going to try to recruit the group. Their base was going to replace the Disney Concert Hall or Crystal Cathedral (but with the building moved out of OC).
One of the organizations that was going to trying to recruit the pcs was going to use "the iconic super hero" location. That organization is headed by a "parody" of one of California's most famous politicians (which is part of the joke and is the reason why the iconic location is used). Of course, I'm pretty sure you can guess who he is, as well as what he is (character archetype wise).
The other organization, which I think matches the pc's personality/disposition, was going to be more down to earth base of operations. I have yet to decide the nature of their base of operations, though.
One of the "main" badguys was also going to have a HQ.. but I yet to decide if he was going to use his own base or if he was tied to the...
...main badguy organization, Dark Star Industries, (who was already hinted at being involved in the plot as is connected to one [if not more] of the characters). They have a base of operations in the area (and has their Corproate HQ located in Irvine California).
