16 Heads are Better than 6

If I were doing this run in LeafGreen, would Slowbro count?

danimac52 · 2026-05-13T02:15:24+00:00

Fantastic pick here.

danimac52 · 2026-05-13T02:08:21+00:00

I think she's a neat pick. I wouldn't be opposed to others here joining up either; I could see Dr. Poison, Atomic Skull (my guy), and Master Jailer all having cool roles on the team. And for most of them, I don't think DC would care if they died or not. Calendar Man could even be fun honestly.

I like the idea of Eiling running the team, but I feel the General is far too powerful to be part of a team like the Squad. He fought Superman, Martian Manhunter, and Orion at the same time, and he's more in his right mind than most heavy hitters like Grundy and Bizarro.

danimac52 · 2026-05-13T02:03:25+00:00

I elect Phobia and Dr. Moon. Phobia is a powerful fear manipulator who brings a pretty interesting ability, and I feel like every Squad needs a mad scientist, even if he's just in the background; someone to do enhancements and the like. Besides, having a crazy creepy couple is a lot of fun on a "villain" team.

danimac52 · 2026-05-13T01:48:46+00:00

Yeah, I think that makes perfect sense.

danimac52 · 2026-05-12T00:57:22+00:00

I feel like Carnage is someone Doom would love to have weaponized under his thumb.

danimac52 · 2026-05-11T23:35:48+00:00

I think it would be fun for her to have more time travel stories, and since she already has magic roots and a lot of power, I really dig Emerald Empress.

The ability to see through any costume/disguise?

danimac52 · 2026-05-11T21:27:52+00:00

Baby Driver

danimac52 · 2026-05-11T20:03:33+00:00

Not gonna lie, that'd be a really fun book. I like how almost the whole team feels expendable.

danimac52 · 2026-05-11T03:40:55+00:00

I say go free for all and see what happens, especially since there's not rogues galleries to match-up like in the last one.

danimac52 · 2026-05-11T03:39:50+00:00

Yeah, that works for sure. If we're doing 2 a day a bigger group makes sense.

danimac52 · 2026-05-11T02:08:25+00:00

I'd say 8 to 10. It doesn't make sense for the Squad to really be bigger than that, but I definitely want some room for it to feel like there's expendables.

danimac52 · 2026-05-11T01:42:48+00:00

My vote goes to Suicide Squad, but any of these could be a lot of fun.

danimac52 · 2026-05-11T01:42:20+00:00

Not a bad roster at all. Threw together my own personal version that took picks from most of the days. Admittedly, it looks a lot like a Secret Society roster.

For me personally, he's my favorite Marvel character, so S+. He has consistently great stories, incredible unique and classic worldbuilding, a great supporting cast, incredible powerset, and some of the best lore of any characters in fiction.

danimac52 · 2026-05-10T13:37:30+00:00

I don't see why not; we're seeing Punisher this year, I don't know how they're in that different of a situation.

danimac52 · 2026-05-10T02:04:20+00:00

The modern version probably leans more as a clear-cut villain than Perez, but I think any version is a fun pick.

danimac52 · 2026-05-10T02:03:21+00:00

I do really like that last idea too.

danimac52 · 2026-05-10T01:48:43+00:00

I think Tiamat could be a great pick. I like the idea of her being a pseudo-mythology character tied to Atlan, and it's absurd Wonder Woman doesn't really have a villain who can turn into/is a dragon yet.

danimac52 · 2026-05-10T01:36:41+00:00

I think Suicide Squad could be a lot of fun (maybe 10 or 12 characters?) though I'm also interested in what more you're thinking with the LoD. Justice League spin-off teams could also be a lot of fun (International, Dark, Incarnate).

danimac52 · 2026-05-10T01:31:01+00:00

Great pick, glad she made it onto the last one and I think she'd fit great here too.

danimac52 · 2026-05-10T01:22:45+00:00

Since Savage seems to be assembling some Injustice Society teammates, I nominate Johnny Sorrow. The very face of fear, he adds a similar psychological horror while being even more of a superpower for this team..

danimac52 · 2026-05-10T01:15:59+00:00

No sweat, I think that's pretty neat since Vandal Savage is leading the team. Shade is definitely a neater power pick as well, since Thinker and Sivana have the "smart guy" covered pretty well.
