That's debateable. I forget what the Palladium/Mirage stuff said but it was something like 36 in #1. Karai, some 2-3 years later, was old enough that she had a 16-18 year-old daughter (who got gunned down in "City at War")... so they could be about the same age, but it's hard to say. But definitely not Saki's daughter. Might have been an early idea that Kevin bounced off of Peter that they collectively dismissed... and it's hard to say exactly how much Kevin was involved in "City at War" directly, creatively.

I did get the impression from some phone calls with Kevin a couple years ago that he isn't too keen on "City at War" at large.
