Create Your Own Super Hero Team - who you gonna draft?

You're a comic book editor. You have an opportunity to create your own super team that you want. Use 7 slots available made up of existing super heroes.

Rules -

1 - need at least one hero from Marvel.

2- need at least one hero from DC.

3- need at least one female.

4- need at least one male.

5- up to seven heroes total.

6- don't have to, but feel free to mention a few supervillains that this team would battle as well.

7- remember it's not just about a kicka$$ team. It's also about selling comics with good stories. So personalities & how they interact are important.

X-Force + Superman = Big Sales and a stupid story.

Impulse

Iron man

Batman

Red Robin

Spider man

Wonder Woman

Superboy

ha. nice. I didn't mean to focus on the sales aspect of it... but you definitely nailed it!

Here's mine.

Batman, Deadpool, Johnny Storm, Ms. Marvel, Green Lantern (Hal Jordan), Psylocke & Beta Ray Bill.

Green Lanter & Torch are both playboys with two attractive tough women. Deadpool & Batman interaction would be interesting. Beta Ray would be the strong guy & straight guy... either him, Batman or Ms Marvel would be team leader.

Scarlet Spider (Kaine), The Flash (Wally West), Venom (Flash Thompson), Green Lantern (John Stewart), Nova Prime (Richie Rider), Aquaman and Legion (Mass Effect).

Wally and Richie would become fast friends over their similar situations: guys that are jokers yet are massive powerhouses. They would both be friends with Flash.

Kaine and John wouldn't get along as John would disapprove of him being a re-formed murderer. Kaine and Flash would be rivals over the Spiderman feel though they are both different enough to be diverse.

Aquaman would be the serious guy along with Legion and John would try to teach them human behaviour whilst trying to stop Richie, Wally and Flash corrupting them.

They would fight world level threats similar to how the Avengers do but could do special under cover operations with Kaine, Flash and Legion similar to X-Force.

-Rocket Raccoon

-Batwoman

-Captain America

-Wonder Woman

-Captain Marvel

-Blue Beetle

-Dr. Strange

I like street levelers and mercenaries so my preferred team would probably be some kind of assassin squad along the lines of:

Leaders: Taskmaster and Deathstroke

Gallery

Members: Huntress, Black Tarantula, Deadpool, Typhoid Mary, Lady Shiva

Gallery

A three way banter between Taskmaster, Deathstroke and Deadpool would be nothing short of epic.

I'd go with Nova, Starlord, Rocket Raccoon, Groot, Gamora, Ms. Marvel, Guy Gardner, and Adam Strange.

Set them in Marvel's Cosmicverse, main bad guys would be Brood, Badoon, Magus, some Externals... Vulcan (yes I would bring him back to be a bad guy for them)

I think this team up would be a great read and have some great chemistry.

Iron Man

Static

Wally West

John Stewart

Doctor Strange

Black Canary

Black Widow

Good mix of tech (Iron Man, Static), magic (Strange), Combat (Widow, Canary) and cool powers (Lantern, Flash).

Gallery

Leaders:

• Bucky Barnes (Winter Soldier)
• Grifter (Wildstorm)

Members

• Black Widow
• Zealot
• War Machine
• Psylocke
• Venom (Flash)

Leaders: Spiderman, Batman

Deadpool, Rogue, Michelangelo(TMNT), Venom(Eddie Brock),Black Widow

Mister Terrific (Tech)(Connections)

Power Girl (Tank)

Black Panther (Stealth) (Martial Arts)(Finances)(Tech)

Zatanna (Magic)(Versatility)

Spider-Man (Versatility) (Sells the book)

Resurrection Man (wild card) (sacrifice if necessary)

Villains:

Vandal Savage (Resources) (Master Mind) (Leader)

Mr. Sinister (Manipulation) (Resources)

Black Adam (Tank) (Field Leader to underlings)

Ra's Al Ghul (Resources)

@mettlekm: A street level dark occult/noir team..

Could someone please make this comic?!?!?! Oh yeah and for a villain idea...

^^^

• Cloak - Darkforce, Teleportation, Life Siphon
• Dagger - Light Daggers, Unarmed Combat, Healing

Team 1

Gallery

• Silver Surfer
• Mr Majestic
• Quasar
• Wonder-woman
• Thor
• Martian man hunter
• Nova Prime

They would fight Darkseid, Monarch, Larfleeze, Paralax, Galactus, Tyrant, Surtur etc

Team 2

Gallery

• Midnighter
• Fantomex
• Flash
• Skaar
• Magneto
• Miss Martian
• Brother Voodoo

They would fight Dr Doom, Black Adam, Doomsday, Apocalypse, Ultron, Hyperion

Ares(Marvel) - Leader

Thor

Deadpool

Mystique

Colossus

Batman

Spider-man

Villains: Lex Luthor brings Sentry back to life. He recruits the wrecking crew, taskmaster, Black Adam, and a few other villains to his aid. It takes twenty issues to finally bring them down. Then Super-man Prime invades Marvel's Earth... and then... and then....

It'd sell. Why? Spider-man, Batman, Deadpool, and Thor.

Superman

Batman

Wonder Woman

Spider-Man

Green Lantern

Xavier

Storm

Captain America

Storm

Hawkeye

She-Hulk

Zatanna

Aquaman

Black Canary

@ThexX: I LOVE this team.

Bucky and Natasha <3

1. Batman (Leader)

2. Ghost Rider

3. Black Widow

4. Wolverine

5. Grifter

6. Spawn

7. Snake-Eyes

I went for a team with darker personalities. Ghost Rider and Spawn are going to be the powerhouses of the team. Wolverine, Grifter, Black Widow, and Snake-Eyes are the fighters, and Batman is the tactician and leader, but can hold his own in a fight.

Spider-Man, Plastic Man, Deadpool, Pip the Troll, Booster Gold, She Hulk and Rocket Racoon

Green Devil A-team

• Ronan the Accuser (Leader)
• Martian man-hunter (2nd in command / versatility)
• Skaar (Dothraki Hulk + old power)
• Midnighter (Bad-ass)
• Ghost Rider (nuff said)
• Orion (Tank)
• Zatana (Magic + nice ass)

This feels like a golden opportunity to create the ultimate team of teenage superheroes, because they'll always be my favorite and seriously, screw the titans.

Static, Leader/Smart Guy

Supergirl: Because every team needs a flying brick.

Blue Beetle, The iron man analogue

XS: The speedster

X-23 the feral one.

Aqualad (Jackson Hyde) The aquaman analogue.

Pixie Teleportation+Magic user.

If I were to create my own superhero team, I'd just create my own superheroes and then draft them to be on it.

But, in the spirit of the game:

• Captain Atom
• Animal Man
• Storm
• Ant-Man (Hank Pym)
• Starfire (could prove interesting with Animal Man on the team, granted that their little tryst is still in continuity)
• Mockingbird

Another good team could be a Daemon-hunter style team:

Team-name: The Inquisition

Leader: John Constantine

Members: Spawn, Ghost Rider, Zatanna, Dr Strange, Magik, Raven

Gallery

This would be an awesome daemon hunting team! Those poor daemons wouldn't know what hit them. I would definitely read about this team lol!

Thor(leader)

Superman

Martian Manhunter

Wonder Woman

John Stewart

Black Panther

Big Barda

Detective Services

	1. Dick Grayson A natural leader and taught by the Detective himself.
	2. Madrox Dupes are good for Multitasking and he's always on the job
	3. Abe Sapien A great team player and his unique abilities have shown to be excellent for detective work.
	4. John Constantine Magic always helps when dealing with situations where all the information isn't present.
	5. Deadman His whole story is basically the fact that he's a ghostly detective
	6. Layla Miller She knows stuff.
	7. Dawn Granger Danger Sense is good in this line of work.

My Super Seven

	1. Martian Manhunter Martian Manhunter is a total BOSS.He's a telepath so that's how the team will stay connected at all times. He has super strength so he can definitely fend for himself and he's calm and calculating, making him a great leader.
	2. Captain Atom He's a soldier and he knows how to take orders. He'll be 2nd in command.
	3. Guy Gardner Guy gives the team some humor and attitude and he's also a heavy hitter.
	4. Zatanna You can't beat everything with brute strength and that's why she's here.
	5. Mr. Fantastic He will be the team's tech guru and along with Zatanna, there won't be much that can catch them by surprise.
	6. Ms. Marvel She can put a big dent on just about anything.
	7. Barry Allen Speedsters are always good.

Deadpool, Wally West, Squril Girl, Booster Gold, Kitty Pride, Captian Marvel, and Johnny Storm the would be the firs superhero team to play before work instead of work then play. Some villains that would fight thm are the joker, Harley Quinn, and everyone that squril girl defeated. Why they would sell because it would be a team that jokes around but can also be serious

batman, captain america, superman, thor, wonder woman, storm, silver surfer

@mettlekm:

The Avenging Legion

Captain America (Leader)

Poison Ivy

Black Panther

Batman

Black Widow

Cassandra Cain

Nick Fury

Green Arrow

Enemies-Hydra,Joker,League of assasins,

Why this would do well - The whole team are peak humans, with the possible exception of Cain who is pushing that. The team are all about stealth and ass kicking and they would work well doing wet ops style sweep and clears of threats to big for one of them alone.

@mettlekm:

I would call them Avengers Noir:

1.) War Machine

2.) Cyborg

3.) Bumblebee

4.) Black Panther

5.) Falcon

6.) Giant-Man (Tom Foster)

7.) Icon

AFTER THE EVENTS OF AVX, THE MUTANT LEADER WOULD BE REPLACED DUE TO HIS ACTIONS AS A PHOENIX HOST. HE WOULD RETAILIATE BY MAKING HIS OWN TEAM OF MUTANTS, TAKING THOSE CLOSEST TO HIM. THE TEAM WOULD BE DEEMED THE BROTHERHOOD OF THE ATOM. WITH HIS SECOND LOVE DEAD AFTER THE EVENTS AND HIS FELLOW TEAMATE NAMOR RENDERED USELESS, HE AND HIS TEAM WOULD VOW TO MAKE THE ONE'S RESPONSIBLE PAY...

BROTHERHOOD OF THE ATOM#1: Fall of the Judge, Jury, and Executioners Part 1 of a 8 part series.

@Pwok21: well thought out!

Team how long before they kill each other.

Green Arrow's Liberalism + Midnighter's Homosexuality + Rosarch's Conservatism = The most insane infuriating opinion inflaming three way in comics history. Combine that with Kid Omega's dickish tenancies , Harley Quinn's psychosis and X-23''s incredibly messed up childhood and you have a literal dysfunction junction. The only way to improve this would clinical study of psychosis would be to add a relapsing Tony Stark and maybe The Hulk.

Also Venom's only there because I like Venom and he's pretty insane.

@quirky_anecdotes: ha. that was great! I'd buy that book. Like a train wreck I couldn't turn away from.

Best-selling team:

• Batman
• Superman
• Wonder Woman
• Wolverine
• Captain America
• Spider-man
• Hulk

My team:

• Wonder Woman
• Thor
• Iron Man
• Batman (Dick Grayson)
• Black Panther
• Superman
• Dr. Strange

Blade

Colossus

Elektra

War Machine

Rogue

Killer Croc

Punisher

Villains: The "heroes" of their conjoined earth have turned the planet into a Police State. 99% of the mutants have been wiped out along with the villains and anyone who opposes the JSA Initiative. The entire populace of the world is governed, ruled and judged by Superman, with the exception of Gotham which is monitored by Batman.

-

Now my personal team would be.

Red Hood

Kick-Ass

Kid Deadpool

Colossus

Midnighter

Nightcrawler

Punisher

1) Captain America

2) Batman

3) Thor

4) Wonder Woman

5) Iron Man

6) Vision

7) Black Panther

I think this would be a good team. I personally, would love to see the interaction between Bruce and Steve, and Thor and Wonder Woman.
