Battle between two teams of Scourge's victims
As it happens, 17 of Scourge's victims were killed in the Bar with No Name, and 17 of his victims were killed outside the Bar with No Name. (I am discounting a few random ones, like the member of the Watchdogs, the Power Broker's minions, and the Melter's assistant Keegan. Also, some of his purported victims ended up not really being dead, like the Ringer and Lionclaw. So this battle only includes canonically dead, costumed villains.)This battle takes place between the 17 killed outside the bar and the 17 killed inside the bar. All are in standard classic versions, which are described below. The Hood later resurrected several of these characters; this battle uses their pre-death, and thus pre-resurrection, versions.
The battle takes place in the bar's parking lot. The teams are grouped on opposite sides of the parking lot, which is full of cars, which may be used for cover. They are all in character, except that they are willing to kill/fight any of their former friends that happen to be on the opposing team. All the members of each team are willing to work together to defeat the other team. The Outside-the-Bar team is led by the Enforcer, the Inside-the-Bar team is lead by Firebrand. Last team with anyone standing wins.
The teams are (since these are pretty obscure characters I have summarized their powers):
