Ben 10 is accepted into the DC universe. How large a role would he play. Would he be in a JL group or Teen Titans? What would change?
New 52 Ben 10
I'm sure you've thought about it @allstarsuperman. What's your two cents?
@saint_wildcard: I made this a while back, lol. Ben 10 in DC Comics, (as well as Smallville) - Gen. Discussion - Comic Vine
I would love it, but it needs a fresh new start. A rebooted New 52 version would be just dandy.

I knew you would have. I created this as a companion to the power puff girls one. With his arrogance, he'll want to be leader of the JL. And if that doesn't work the Teen Titans.
@saint_wildcard: He would be kinda like original Booster Gold, the big shot celebrity superhero, thats really not that good at all at first. Then later becomes a real hero. I just hope he wouldn't get sidelined into obscurity on a teen titans book.
@saint_wildcard: Also I'd love to see Vilgax take on the JLA or something.

At his power level, any member (except Batman) could solo. I like the idea of Kevin being his rival/villain though.
@saint_wildcard: yeah, but this is a reboot, Vilgax could be a team buster if need be. And yes, Kevin should have stayed a bad guy.
That could be interesting. Azmuth and the Galvan race could be a race that looked up to the Maltusian Guardians, and wanted to help their efforts when the Guardians were seeking ways to help the universe, prior to the Manhunters. Azmuth could have put forth a proposal for the Protomatrix, giving one person the ability to communicate with all species as an arbiter. Another could have put forth a prototype for the Manhunter's. Guardian's go with the Manhunters, finish the project, that ends well.
As punishment for the failure (because Source forbid the GUARDIANS be at fault, with their flawless logic), the Galvan's were bound to their planet, unable to ever leave. Their attempt to get around this resulted in the creation of the Galvanic Mechnomorph's (Upgrade), and them taking over one of Galvan B, their moon. The Mechnomorph's in turn acted as an intermediary between the Galvan's and the rest of the universe. Azmuth, meanwhile, sought to redeem the Galvan race by finishing his proposal, ending up with the Omnitrix, and having one of the Mechnomorph's take it to the Guardians. En route, said Mechnomorph was attacked by somebody. Maybe Lobo. Maybe Bolphunga. Mechnomorph crashlands on Earth, dies, the Omnitrix is found by Ben, and the rest is history.
The Plumbers could be a subgroup of the D.E.O., who specifically deal with aliens. Think a DC equivalent of Marvel's S.W.O.R.D.
Ben would work well with the Teen Titans, but maybe not the current line up. Ideally, I'd want him on the lineup with Starfire and Beastboy. That way you've got the competition with Beastboy as the group's top shapeshifter, and I think the dynamic between the two would be pretty great. Starfire, as an alien, could provide a unique frame of reference on some of Ben's forms, beyond, "THE F*** DID YOU TURN INTO?!
@jonsmith: Interesting ideas, though I would like to keep Vilgax and Xylene as how the omnitrix got to earth.

Xylene's escorting the Mechnomorph, and when the ship comes under attack and is damaged, forces the Mechnomorph to bond with the ship at the cost of it's own life, allowing the ship to warp to Earth, where Xylene think's it'll be safe. Vilgax hired whoever attacks them (So probably Lobo) rather than getting directly involved immediately.
@jonsmith: I like it, its like season 1 of the original Ben 10, how Vilgax uses robots and bouty hunters for 12 episodes, then finally goes after ben in the finale.

But sending Lobo is a bad idea. That dude is way OP for any other than Ben 10k..... unless the JL intervene and stop Lobo while at the same time investigating Ben and the Omnitrix.

Lobo's a skilled tracker, but not overly bright. He could assume that whatever Vilgax wanted (because no way would Vilgax fill him in with anymore info than necessary) went up in the crash. He's really just there to help tie the story tighter into the DC Universe, anyway.
I make threads like these all the time. I think ben would have to be made into a smaller character for him to fit in with DC. I can see the JL dominating him in a fight one by one in which he is invited into the titans. He would probably be close with Tim Drake and Captain Marvel. I''ll discuss more about it later.

Agreed, doesnt matter how cool of a new character you are or how many comics you sell, you'll never take the spot of any or the JL characters.
Remember when Professor Paradox took bens team out of the universe to stop aggreror? I think it would be cool if the Universe next door as he called it was actually The DC universe, I still would prefer him to be put into the DC universe
Coming back to this thread I would of really loved this Idea. Especially with that needless Ben Reboot. I think he'd amazing character to put in DC. Give him the omnitrix and a slightly higher age around 13-14. Give him his original 10 aliens or mix them up with the 10 from alien force (exclude Alien X and Ghost freak) and you'd have a good addition to the DC Universe
Ben 10 is pretty powerful from what I know. I think he'd fit in, but it'd take some doing to meld his lore with the pre-existing DC lore. It's be pretty cool, though.
Wait wait, so theoretically speaking then Ben could scan Clark and add Kriptonian DNA to the omnitrix?
Probably. but If I was writing it I'd say he couldn't turn into aliens who either have to much complicated DNA (Martian Manhunter) or whose DNA and structure are too close to humans (Kryptonians)
@stormshadow_x: I dunno about the complicated DNA as Alien X can't be that simple, but DNA similar to humans could work

Alien X was a horrible alien to include and would be retconned out if he were to enter the DC pantheon. I do think that Ben should be unable to scan Clark for *insert any reason here*. Or just make it so that the DNA has to be inserted manually, and that the creator never got Kryptonian DNA since he either failed to get it or they didn't allow him to.
Ben ten would be pretty op, due aliens like Alien X.
Probably on the justice league, but do to how powerful he is, I doubt he would join a team. He could probably become superman if he wanted too.

Even as an adult, Ben 10K had a team, and once he realized he still needed them, they worked well together. It might not be any traditional team in the DCU though.
Most likely, Ben would likely become the newest Agent of S.H.A.D.E. with a team of their agents. I think Giganta is an Agent currently so she could team up with him. Maybe an outcast character like Lagoon Boy and include Gwen as Lucky Girl, possibly, and you've possibly got a good team to write about.
Cool as long as there is no Reboot of the show for a while.
