Cool choices!
I'm a huge fan of Monica Rambeau and Nightcrawler, so those two are a great choice. Wiccan is a good choice, for the tie-in to Wanda, and where he goes, Hulkling is sure to follow.

Abe as the 'team tech' for an Avengers team sounds awesome. In the presence of Fixer/Techno, he always came across as second-fiddle, and Fixer being a big jerk did nothing to help that.

Sasquatch was always a favorite, and him as an Avenger 'big hitter' is cool!

yeah cool! Photon really does deserve a chance, and Nightcrawler's swordsmanship and leadership of Excalibur just make him Avengers material to me.

Hulkling and Wiccan jumped up quickly from the young crowd and seem nearly as capable and more appealing (to me) than their crazy adult counterparts. smile

also ... Kitty Pryde .... Kitty Pryde .... she's perfect.

ooooo and kitty and doug working together again .... magic! unless he's weird evil warlock doug or something.


Sasquatch is also INSPIRED!

I thought of an interesting one for a FUTURE FANTASTIC FOUR:

Franklin Richards - Super Psi. Leader. pretty smart.
Valeria Richards - in an android body. She was killed and resurrected in an android body, talks to computers and tech powers now. still super duper smart.
Black Bolt Jr. - He's the tough guy of the team. like Superman. Could be Ahuru, through the Terrigan mists ... or not.
Jack Power - He's got the full Power Pack power set. (whether they are dead or retired) He's still a riot. Maybe he learned to teleport like Kofi too!

heh heh I got a sketch for a FUTURE X-MEN!

1. Prodigy
2. Layla Miller
3. Molly Hayes
4. Hisako/Armour
5. Trauma
6. Thunderbird II (Neal Shaara)
7. Anole
8. Pixie

I tried to stay away with the latest crop of X-Kids since they are uber powerful and i wanted to get the future X-Men back to their underdog roots. I imagine Prodigy and Layla keep the team one step ahead of their enemies. I also wanted to keep the Summers and Grey's legacies away from this team.

Another one ... FUTURE AVENGERS

(again I am staying away from the typical legacies)

1. Justice renamed Astro!
2. Firestar
3. Speed
4. Hawkeye II Kate Spencer
5. Darkstar
6. Living Lightning
7. Marvel Boy Noh-Varr
8. Power Man II

and if they need more strength maybe Thena's son Joey. He goes by "Joey". kicks butt. Half Eternal is still way more Eternal than most people. Except he might conflict with Marvel Boy.

I thought about putting Trauma on this team instead of the X-Men. He could be the magic-esque user ... but the goth kid seemed so right on the X-Men.

23. Vibe (See 22)
24. Vixen
25. Nightgirl

I did an interesting version and a big bad old fashioned version.

I'll share the *interesting* version first.

1. Sarge Steel (maybe leader)
2. Warlord (would be weird, maybe great, maybe funny)
3. Bronze Tiger
4. Changeling
5. Flash (Wally West)
6. Enchantress (a few evil jokes may be funny. The Guy Gardener of the team.)
7. Blue Beetle
8. Cosmic Boy
9. Wonder Woman (this was a brand new Wonder Woman at this point. savage Amazonian humor ensues. Maybe keeps Enchantress in check.)
10. Green Lantern - Arisia (cute and innocent - hilarity ensues)


and maybe Firestorm

So, I went with a "Who would I put in a post-Crisis JLA?" scenario more than anything. One of the neat things about the all-new Justice League is that it kind of represented the merging of the different realities that came together in Crisis, so I tried to use that idea as well.

1. Superman -- DC's flagship character.

2. Batman -- DC's other flagship character.

3. Wonder Woman -- DC's most famous female character, in newly rebooted form.

4. Captain Marvel -- Fawcett's Big (Red) Cheese. Also neat as kind of combining elements of Superman and Wonder Woman.

5. Plastic Man -- Quality's biggest star.

6. Phantom Lady -- Probably Quality's second biggest star. Another classic female character.

7. Blue Beetle -- representing Charlton. Also, he and Cap form a kind of counter-Supes and Bats.

8. Jade -- Representing Earth-2 as well as the team's "Green Lantern".

9. Obsidian -- It just seems like he should be there with Jade as the team's "Wonder Twins".

10. Flash (Wally West) -- Because nothing says "post-Crisis reality" like Wally West as Flash.

I stopped with ten, though I would've like to add Black Lightning and/or Vixen for diversity. I also like the idea of throwing in a New God or someone from the 30th century, but didn't do so.

ooo this looks fantastic ... a Superman new to leadership, a Batman unused to working in groups, and a crazy Amazon new to the outer world.

Combined with a naive Captain Marvel and a green Blue Beetle in over their heads!

I love Phantom Lady, she could ground this group.

And It would be fun to see the young Jade and Obsidian as over achieving second generation heroes!

Here's mine, mostly taken from Legends but adding some who weren't present. Hey, the writers threw Mr. Miracle in and he didn't show up...

I'm thinking of a team that would make a good mix of power and hilarity.

1) Wonder Woman (explore her "newness" to man's world

2) Blue Beetle

3) Guy Gardner

4) Martian Manhunter

(the above 3 just worked so well)

5) Doctor Light (make her a little bit bitchier)

6) Black Canary (would be interesting to see how she plays off the other two gals, and the rest of the team)

7) Captain Marvel (captain whitebread!)

8) Firestorm (for the power... and I think he'd get along with Ted. But I'd much prefer Booster Gold...)

9) Fire

10) Ice

11) Power Girl

12) Metamorpho

^ i threw in the above because they just worked so well!

I did a Marvel big 7 JLA ...


1. Ikaris the Eternal (Martian Manhunter)
2. Photon (Green Lantern)
3. Black Knight (Batman)
4. Angel (Hawkman)
5. Hellcat (Wonder Woman)
6. Wonder Man (Supes)
7. Moondragon (Aquaman)

I went a bit for personality and character interaction. No Flash as you can see I never found guys who can run fast very interesting.

If I had to I would put ... Photon as the Flash and then come up with another GL analogue like ...

Captain Marvel. or most likely 8) Quasar. hmmm Although Ikaris pretty much has everything covered. Could leave Photon where she is and add Northstar to fill in for the Flash spot.

Every team needs someone with wings. Wasp?

I also seriously considered Mimic for the Hawkman spot but thought he was too non heroic. I wanted a mutant on the team though.

DC Avengers ...

1. Titano (sometimes good sometimes bad Hulk)
2. The Red Bee (Wasp)
3. Alloy (Metal Mean amalgam supersized robot)
4. Orion (Thor) (The obvious pick might be a Marvel though)
5. Steel (Iron Man)
6. Captain Atom (Captain America) or Captain Comet

A science heavy team but I guess the Avengers are.

Ooh, I like the idea of Captain Comet on a JLAvengers sort of team, Peebs!

A Marvel Justice League;

For the most part, replacing any Justice Leaguer with a member of the Squadron Supreme feels a bit cheap, since that's all they are, Marvel's own 'Justice League.' So I skipped those. Similarly, Gladiator and the Sentry are just basically Marvel clones of Superman anyway. Too easy!

Wonder Man (Superman)
Ms. Marvel *or* She-Hulk (Wonder Woman)
Captain America *or* Wolverine (Batman)
Namor the Sub-Mariner *or* Namora (Aquaman)
The Super-Skrull! (Martian Manhunter)
Rom, Spaceknight (Green Lantern)
Monica Rambeau/Photon (the Flash)


With the recent popularity of the Guardians of the Galaxy, which, for a brief time was full of totally cosmic ladies like Phyla-Vell, Moondragon, Mantis and Gamora, a DC Guardians of the Galaxy;

Adam Strange (leader)
Krypto (obligatory super-animal)
Starfire
Halo
Green Lantern (Arisia or Katma Tui)
Miss Martian
Captain Comet

As usual, I go for a well-balanced team. I also tried to incorporate a variety of characters from different parts of the respective universes.

A Marvel Justice League:

Luke Cage (Superman)
Iron Fist (Batman)
Sif (Wonder Woman)
Carol Danvers (Green Lantern)
Kid Gladiator (Martian Manhunter)
Northstar (The Flash)

DC's Version of Cap's Kooky Quartet:

Captain Marvel Jr. (Captain America)
Miss Martian (Scarlet Witch)
Kid Flash (Quicksilver)
Rubber Band Man (Hawkeye)

DC Guardians of the Galaxy
Captain Comet(Star-Lord)
Hawkgirl (Gamora)
A Dryad(Groot)
A Proty (Rocket Raccoon)
Superboy (Adam Warlock)

Maybe the new Red torpedo should be female to balance things out.

Interesting group! I always liked the Spaceknights-with-powers over the Spaceknights-with-gadgets, like Starshine and Firefall. An ex-Herald of Galactus seems a logical fit (a resurrected Supernova could be neat in that role as well, or even a re-constructed Air-Walker). Phastos is one of those 'forgotten Eternals.' Makes me wonder if there are other Eternals out there who are kinda / sorta analogues to other Greek gods, like Artemis, Aphrodite, Apollo or Hades.

Lila Cheney rocks, and not just as group transport, since she can get her hands on some freaky ultra-tech alien weaponry, if she wants to mix it up.

I tried to put a little 'wacky' or 'not who you would expect to be together' in the group. I partly chose Starshine for her human connection. Brandy Clark was actually human.
