Marvel Comics and DC Comics
While normally competitors, a handful of times through the decades the two publishers have joined together to jointly publish individual issues.
What merged Marvel/DC characters would you make?
Because they've both held the moniker "Man Without Fear," I would combine Green Lantern and Daredevil into The Green Devil.
Hal "Daredevil" Murdock was a test pilot, flying a plane designed to carry an experimental type of bomb. Clipped by a crashing UFO, his plane went down. He manages to ditch without blowing up, pops the canopy and scrambles out to check the payload. Bent and dented, a hairline crack in the warhead hisses faintly. As Murdock draws nearer to inspect it, the faint hissing suddenly builds and erupts into a geyser of gas, catching Hal full in the face. Blinded, Hal stumbles away from the wreckage, inadvertantly finding the dying alien, Abin Stick. Stick tells him he's one of the Green Nova Corps, and passes his ring on to Murdock, charging him to fight evil.
Thinking of his nickname, Murdock takes the name Green Devil instead of Green Nova, and recites this oath: "In harshest din, or hush profound, my ears catch evil's slightest sound. Let those who think they've escaped my sight, beware my power: Green Devil's light!" As Green Devil, Hal actually uses the ring to enhance his senses, including what he calls his "radar sense" - making up for his lost sight by allowing him to see what's coming from every direction, like the radar in his plane (he wills it to interact with his optic nerve or something comic-plausible like that).
A recurring foe would be Bullseye: The Human Target. No real history in mind here. I just liked the name combo. ;) I guess he'd be like Bullseye, but with a deathwish - often impersonating people targeted for death, and killing those he finds out escaped death. Or maybe he impersonates criminals that Green Devil is after, trying to provoke GD into killing him? I don't know, he's crazy, alright?
Another foe would be businessman and reputed mobster, Wilson Whale - the Kingfish.
Hal Jordan + Matt Murdock = Hal Murdock
Green Lantern + Daredevil = Green Devil
Abin Sur + Stick = Abin Stick
Green Lantern Corps + Nova Corps = Green Nova Corps (I liked Nova Lanterns better, but I didn't like any name combo except Green Devil, so had to find a way to work it in)
Bullseye + The Human Target = Bullseye: The Human Target
Wilson Fisk + Tobias Whale = Wislon Whale
Kingpin + "Whale" = Kingfish (sort of)
Nightwing + Night Thrasher = Night Night! Wait... Wing Thrasher?
Btw, someone mentioned Batman & Daredevil, so it'd be like Batman with DD's enhanced senses, including that "bat-like" radar sense. With this combo, I'd just call him The Bat. Or possibly The 'Bat, short for The Acrobat.
Although The Acrobat might be better suited for a combo of Nightwing and Daredevil. Young Matt Grayson's parents are killed when their circus train collides with a chemical truck. Exposed to the toxic fumes, Grayson is blinded and receives enhanced senses, including a sort of radar sense. Yeah, it's basically Daredevil with Dick Grayson in the costume... not as good as I thought it'd be.
What about Deadman + Daredevil = Dead Devil (Deadevil?)?
Omega the Unknown + Orion (originally known as Orion the Hunter) = Omega Orion the Unknown Hunter. Or, Orion Omega, Hunter of the Unknown. Sometimes ally of the already established Challengers of the Fantastic.
Perry White + Ghost Rider = Great Caesar's Ghost Rider? ...Okay, I might be losing it, here... one more...
Howard the Duck + Alley Kat Abra = Chinese takeout! Wait... that's not right... I'll get back to you.
New Teen Titans + New Warriors = Titan Warriors
Raven + Night Thrasher = Night Raven (have fun with that costume combo)
Aquagirl + Namorita = Aquarita ...well, there's something fishy about it.
Beast Boy + Speedball = Speedbeast
Starfire + Firestar = Starfirestar (yeah yeah, let me see you do better)
Wonder Girl + Marvel Boy = Wonder Marvel
The Secret + Ultragirl = The Ultra Secret
Cyborg + Darkhawk = Darkborg ...sort of Cyborg's look with Darkhawk's colors and that funky crystal thing that gives him whatever powers it gives him.
Okay, okay, I like Starfirestar for sheer wackiness, but I realize most won't, so...
Starfire + Nova = Starnova; Novastar; Novafire
Arch enemies are the Fearsome Fivonex (Fearsome Five + Psionex) - somebody else can do that set of team member combos. :)
Punishot. (Punisher\Deadshot)
When he was a child Frank Lawton's mother was raped by a gangster. So when Frank's brother went to confront the gangster he was killed. Wanting revenge Frank climbed a tree with a rifle, when the thug came back to rape his mother again Frank shot him straight in the head. The police never found the killer. When he was 17 Frank joined the army, and he was the best shot in his hole squad or any other. After his first term, he returned and did super-secret military assassinations. The government called him back for a 3rd term, and on it some of his soldiers payed him to kill a corrupt officers (which he did) and he also continued his super secret military assassinations. After returning to his family, the government saw Frank as the final loose end they hired a group of mercenaries and when they tried to kill him, they killed his family instead. Seeing he has nothing else Frank Lawton becomes a mercenary, but not in the normal sense, he hires himself out to the people who want evil people dead. He becomes Death's Deadliest Assassin, Punishot!

He has Plasticman's Powers and Deadpool's ability to Breaking The Fourth Wall
I actually have several that I've been thinking about writing a fanfic for recently. They include:
- Captain Hulk (Shazam/Captain Marvel + The Hulk) and the Hulk Family (Marvel Family + The Hulks).
- Ironwing (Nightwing + Iron-Fist).
- Marvel Woman (Jean Grey + Wonder Woman).
- The Forever Guardians (The Forever People + Guardians of the Galaxy).
- Amanda Fury, Director of C.H.E.C.K.M.A.T.E. (Amanda Waller + Nick Fury).
- The Man of Steel (Superman + Iron-Man; usually shortened to "Steel").
- Misty Stone (Misty Knight + Cyborg; still thinking of a codename for her, but I do know she's Ironwing's girlfriend).
- The Loathsome Lord Leader (Mr. Mind + The Leader).
- Black Hulk (Black Adam + Red Hulk).
- The Great Lakes Substitutes (Great Lakes Avengers + Legion of Substitute Heroes).
- Dr. Vandal (Vandal Savage + Dr. Doom).
- Ampere (Static + Stature).
- Arana Azule (Blue Beetle/Jaime Reyes + Arana/Anya Corazon).
- Longbow (Longshot + Green Arrow).
- Black Echo (Echo + Black Bat/Cassandra Cain).
@immortalone: that'd be pretty sick but you'd lose the name the dark night and you wouldn't be stealthy.
In a way Marvel already creates some of their characters by merging pre-existing heroes and/or villains from various different comics for example:
Spiderman + Deathstroke A.K.A Slade Wilson + (Wolverine's healing Factor - any form of mental stability + a random obsession with chimichangas?) x the 4th wall = Deadpool A.K.A Wade Wilson
another example:
Batman + The Spectre A.K.A Jim Corrigan ( - most of his powers) + ancient Egyptian mythology x DID = Moon Knight (really, why else would they name the guy who punishes criminals/villains using the abilities given to him by a divine entity/deity Marc Spector)
