From email we received from John McDonagh on 24 May 2006:
He does not [yet] have an entry [on Adherents.com's "Religious Affiation of Comic Book Characters" list], but one should note that Tyrannus (who is in fact the last Western Roman Emperor Romulus Augustus per Avengers Annual #20) would possibly be Roman Catholic, as he came after the Theodosian Code.
