Marvel/DC: Create-A-Superteam - Timewarp Revival
Say you're some multidimensional recruiter, Nick Fury/Amanda Waller or an uber-godly scale, and it's your job to put together a team of superheroes tough enough to face Darkseid - managed to nab the Infinity Gems, and somehow subjugated Unicron from Transformers into a pet. Oh, and he acquired the Foot Clan in a game of poker.
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() No pressure. So across the universes of Marvel and DC you shall summon a team of five worthy of this threat. Be sure to highlight the leader. No you cannot choose from the Hasbro universe, despite there being Unicron. His inclusion was to raise the threat level, not to have Snake Eyes riding Bumblebee in a few teams (awesome as that sounds). Go. Last edited by Kalyx triaD; 04-03-2012 at 11:50 PM. |

Do we have a set team number? Otherwise I could theoretically create a Legion of Super-Heroes sized team.

Let's go with a 5. Forces hard decisions, I think. Thanks for the detail.

Can we use Phoenix or are we going to argue whether she can be controlled or not?

Well if "She can't control it" I think that kinda bans her outright.

Certain character can be debated, but I think we'll all behave on this front.
For me, this is harder than I thought making the thread. Gonna need time. |

Added Foot Clan to the looming threat. Add some 'street level' goons other than Parademons.

![]() Unicron looms, Darkseid commands him to begin drilling Hellspores on Earth. Thor (leader) - We're dealing with a New God, who has no consideration for life in the universe. This team will be lead by a god who learned to value life technically inferior to his own. After seeing how Darkseid would abuse his power and one of the treasures of Odin's Vault, Thor would surely have words with thee. ![]() Who will fight with the Son of Odin? Green Lantern Hal - Intergalactic threats are not new to a Green Lantern, and this team needs a major boost of willpower in the form of Hal Jordan. I'm going with this particular version of Hal for tonal diversity, somebody's gonna need to crack a joke in the few silent moments the team will have. Him and another. ![]() Do we a have a dump big enough for a dead planet? Ghost Rider Blaze - So a bunch of Foot Clan are presumably driving around in Decepticlone vehicles provided by Unicron. Who needs to get on the road and cash in the rap sheets of all of those ninja punks? You're damn right. The Rider can possess vehicles with hellfire to make it his own, what happens if he infects a Decepticlone? ![]() Come to me, machine, and pay the price. Spider-Man - Back in New York, street punk ninjas arrive via space bridges. Seemingly there to riot and keep forces busy, Peter Parker decides to be responsible with all that great power of his. Perhaps he can enter a space bridge before it closes and infiltrate Unicron's body... ![]() ![]() You are totally infringing on the mask, fellas. Superman - Thor knows a thing or two about godlike power, but there's somebody who as a personal investment in this battle. For years Superman had to watch as Darkseid tried to ruin the universe. For this event, he'd gladly relinquish the leadership role if it means focusing on getting that gauntlet off of Darkseid and beating his face in. Thor needs another heavy hitter, and someone who knows how Darkseid works. Clark is here to help. ![]() I'm inside, I'll get Peter to the core. And what happens next, plays out in your heads.

It would be pretty fucking irresponsible not to put Superman on the team, that's the problem. He probably should've been banned.

I didn't even put Superman on my team for his power. Could have put some other shit powerful dude there. Put him there for what he means, and the inspiration and hope he brings.
Also, because I am a Superman mark. Also, just thought right now that I could have technically used Hank Pym instead of The Atom. Hank Pym is smarter. He is kind of a douchebag though, even when he isn't beating his wife. You know what? Screw him. I'll stick with The Atom. No douches on my team. |

Alright I'll do it for real.
(Leader) ![]() 1. Adam Warlock Intimate knowledge of the infinity gems and how to thwart those who seek to abuse them. Plus he's pretty powerful in his own right. ![]() 2. Galactus Another reason why Warlock is leader. Adam has convinced Galactus to fight alongside him against the threat of the gauntlet before. I see no reason why he can't do it again. That's Unicron taken care of, right there. ![]() 3. Mister Fantastic Probably the smartest hero in the marvel universe. Together, with Adam, they can figure out a way to get the Gauntlet off of Darkseid. Way I see it, powerhouses are useless until you get the gauntlet away from Darkseid. 4. Thanos Thanos is the total package for the battle against Darkseid. Like warlock, he has a wealth of experience with the gauntlet. He's as intelligent, if not more so than Richards. He has the power to possibly beat Darkseid one on one in combat after the gauntlet is taken care of. And he'll at least have help from Adam and richards, so it's a lock. ![]() 5. Squirrel Girl She's beaten Thanos and Doctor Doom. Bunch of teenage ninja wannabes should be pretty simple. Now you might say this team is bunk because those characters would never team up, but when it comes to the infinite gauntlet, they would, and they actually have. That's why I kept it marvel. The Gauntlet might be the most powerful thing in all of comics, Marvel or DC. You'll get some strange bedfellows, with that kind of threat. |

He has on several occasions since then, aided the heroes from keeping it from others.
I've read EVERYTHING concerning the soul gems and the gauntlet. My team was picked as soon as you involved the thing. |

Still wouldn't trust him. In fact your team's a bigger threat than Darkseid/Unicron/Foot Clan. Some fragile psyche's there.

Desperate times...
Thanos does, have a sort of code of honor. Plus, over the years, he and Adam Warlock have developed something that actually resembles a friendship. Besides there is nothing to gain from any sort of betrayal. Neither Adam or Thanos wants the gauntlet anymore. The Magus was taken care of already, so no need to worry about that. Galactus wouldn't care about anything else but getting the gauntlet off of darkseid and eating unicron. These guys, while a huge threat in any other situation, have no reason to do anything but destroy darkseid here. Except for squirrel girl. Total loose cannon that one. |

Dr. Doom WOULD betray your team for the gauntlet.
Thanos may be evil, but as I said, he has a code. More importantly, he's had enough experience with all powerful objects to know that coveting them often leads to ruin. Doom, not so much. He's still a bastard. |

Oh yeah Narc, I totally forgot to recommend Future Foundation to you. Right up there with X-Force as one of my favorite books right now.
Even if you don't like FF, check it out. I never cared for them at all, tbh, but this is really good stuff. |

Still better than Darkseid
Besides he's on the Future Foundation, But I know his ego is too big to fully trust despite some honor. Truth be told I'd just like to read his read character be involved.

Outside of Magneto or Phoenix, x-men would be pretty useless.
Even Magneto doesn't really have the power to much damage to unicron. Would need some way to amplify his power, tremendously. So good choice. Hope this geekxplanation has been helpful. |
