Yeah.  Superfreaks is almost a kind of constrained writing.  It's like
"Tell superhero stories but tell it from the point of view of
detectives, cops, medical examiners and lawyers and try to include all
these non-superpowered characters in every storyline, if not every
issue".  It's actually very difficult.  In a sense, the latest release
(#18) fails in this respect because while all the non-superpowered
characters appear, they don't have anything to do with the main story
(except of course FBI Agents Lana Lewis and Oscar Unger who are still
not listed among the main characters at this point).
