After being kidnapped and experimented on, they found themselves both possessing the twin superpowers of Light and Darkness control. Cloak can teleport, manipulate Darkness, and alter his body's density from impenetrably solid to intangible, while Dagger can heal people with her light, manipulate light, create daggers of light and other light based constructs that can either heal or harm people. They can also both draw power from the emotions of those they touch, Dagger through hope and Cloak through fear. Marvel Television produced a two-season self-titled live-action television series set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with Aubrey Joseph as Ty Johnson and Olivia Holt as Tandy Bowen. Additionally, Joseph and Holt reprised their roles in the third season of Runaways following the former series' cancellation.
