Marvel's premier superhero teams, at the very beginning of their careers. Remember their golden age counterparts were vastly less experienced and their powers had not fully developed, ie; Johnny couldn't go super nova, bobby couldn't reform himself and both couldn't hold their form for little over an hour. An hour prep time, morals on in an underpopulated 1960's New York City. Reed could invent something to use, whatever his ancient feats show he could within the limit of the hour, however the X-Men may receive assistance from Professor X. The teams are:
X-Men:
Cyclops
Iceman
Jean Grey
Beast
Angel
Fantastic Four:
Mr. Fantastic
The Thing
Invisible Woman
Human Torch
This is a 5 v. 4 fight, but it's still pretty fair as I don't remember the classic Angel being able to do much combat wise. (Lacked his healing factor). What do you guys think?
Anyone who legitimately thinks Wolverine could penetrate Aquaman's skin, much less get close enough to even touch him with TP is either a retard or an overly-biased Marvel fan boy. Why do people always forget that Arthur has near Superman level power?
Actually- I'll admit adamantium could maybe cut Arthur's skin, but that groovy orange armor- not gonna happen.
I can't think of a single writer working currently who gets away with the ludicrous amount of exposition that Lobdell does. If you don't understand what's going on, don't worry! Clark's inner monologue will explain every minute detail! In every panel! On every page! Forever!
Here's the thing no one seems to think about- character similarities. While my top choices are Swamp Thing and Captain Cold, the chances are slim to none that they'll be selected. Captain Cold (especially new 52) would be way too similar to Killer Frost, and Martian Manhunter will fill the spot for green shape-changing monster.
