Help me out please.
What is your arch type team? What type of characters are on the team?
What is the leader like? Is there a scientist on the team? Is there a hot head? Is there a suck up? How many members does the team have? What type of powers do they have
You can make generalizatons or use your favorite team, like the Avengers, as an example if you want.
You can use a hero team or a villian team.
What is your ideal team?
 
At least one black guy is all i know



Actually, only one black guy. Any more would just take away page space for characters we really care about.
 
I think on a team there is usually
a team leader,
a scientist,
a hot head or rebel,

anything else? What type of powers would they have? What other characters are on the team? How many more characters? what are their typical personalities?
 
Marvel should do a MAX comic called the 'POON HOUNDS!' about a group of 'Ultra hetero' superhero team, who along with fighting crime are all about baggin chicks! Then one of there members, turns out to be gay and the group have to decide if they will kick him out of the group? or learn to accept him and change there name?

The Cast:

*ALPHA DOG: Leader and alpha male of the group.

powers: Super strength and stamina; emitts aura that makes women swoon and men cringe in subordination.

*CAHMACHO: Loose cannon.

powers: Super intensity and anger induced nigh invurnerability and flight.

*JOCK: Wildman and party guy.

powers: Excells at any physical activity, sorta like (Taskmaster.)

*WHIPPER SNAPPER: Youngest member, hyperactive and gullable.

powers: Superspeed via consuption of gasoline.

*the DUDE: Laid back and affalable.

powers: Unbelievable (personal) good luck and seems to know everybody. (Has an uncanny knack for sage advice;while in a drunkin stuper and inspired paradigmed thought/ideas.)


Note: Mind you one of these guys will be the 'contested member' so who would you guys peg as the 'unique' hero?




There ya go!
 
Here are some examples,
JLA:
Superman- team leader, hero/ all powerful (speed, strength, bullet proof, flight) / wise and noble
Batman- rebel, anti hero/ combat and weapons expert, scientist/ wise, dark and brooding
Wonder Woman- (? Don't know her exact role in the team)/ all powerful/ isn't she sort of aggressive and ready to fight?
Martian Manhunter- (?)/ team psychic and all powerful/ wisdom, calm and patient
Green Lantern- various versions, sometimes the new guy and sometimes the military guy, sometimes the veteran / powerful energy/ depends on which version (sometimes the niave and inexperienced)
Flash- like GL, sometimes the new guy and sometimes the veteran/ super speed/ depends on the version (sometimes the niave and inexperienced)

JSA:
(not sure about their characters or roles on the team)
Flash- speed
Green Lantern- energy
Power Girl- all powerful
Hawk Girl/Hawk Man- flight and combat
Captain Marvel- all powerful
Atom Smasher- strong brute, strength
Hour Man- (I'm not sure) but strength and speed I think
Mr. Terrific- scientist
Fate- magic

Fantastic Four:
Reed Richards- leader/ stretchy powers, scientist/ wisdom, father figure
Sue Storm- second in comand/ invisible powers/ level headed, logical, mother figure
Johny Storm- young guy/ fire/ naive, immature,
Ben Grimm- strong brute/ rock/ hot head, rebel type, big brother type

X-Men:
Xavier- man behind the scenes who never really gets involved, is all powerful or wise.
Cyclops- team leader, hero/ optic blast/ dull, by the books, moral(?)
Jean Grey- love interest/ psychic powers, phoenix force/ conflicted i guess
Wolverine- rebel, the other man, anti hero/ healing, claws, combat expert/ stubburn, grumpy, brooding,
colossus- strong brute/ metal skin and strength/ strong silent type
Ice Man- young member/ ice powers/ naive, innocent, immature, prankster
storm- second in command?/ storm powers/ take charge, wise, noble
Beast- scientist, brutish/ scientist, animal like abilities and strength/ kind, wise, noble, smart, self conscience

Any others?
What about villian teams like the Sinister Six or Suicide Squad?
Any good examples of villian teams?
 
What is your arch type team? Five members, three girls and two boys.

What type of characters are on the team? Strong willed and proactive team players.


What is the leader like? Female, I like it when women take charge.

Is there a scientist on the team? Depends....

Is there a hot head? Or two..........

Is there a suck up? Nope, I don´t like those.

How many members does the team have? Five, three girls and two boys.

What type of powers do they have? A brick and a flier. The rest is up for grabs.

What is your ideal team? Wonder Woman, Zatanna, the Engineer, Quasar and Black Panther.

Trade Engineer for Captain Marvel (Monica Rambeau), depending on what sort of mission they´re up against.
 
Any good disfunctional teams?
Like Sinister Six? Avengers Forever? Suicide Squad?

What in your opinion makes a good team, or a good disfuncional team?
 
I've always wanted to see a comic book written as an ongoing that is the Villians, not the Heros. Only it explains their reasoning for doing what they do, and presses the point that "Superheros are just as evil as we are".

God, one of these day's I'm going to start writing it.

Man, that was SO mean.

I personally believe an all-black Storm + Black Panther + Luke Cage + Cloak + Monica Rambeau + M would seriously rock. Nevermind the action, I´d just love to see the character interaction.
 
Well, for combat, I like somebody for up close work, somebody who can blast away from a distance, and someone who can fly or run fast to charge in and out. So that's three. Plus an extra of one of those three. So, let's say, two who can blast away at a distance.

Then you need a detective and a scientist good at investigating the weird stuff these guys are always coming across.

Any one of the above should be a good tactician. And one should have their power based on (and have knowledge about) magic forces.

I'd say an absolute minimum of four, with five being a good number of members.
 
Thanks for all the responces, they are very helpful.

On a mismatched team like Sinister Six, Suicide Squad, or another dysfunctional team, what types of personalities should there be?
How many clash and how many get along, and what types are they?
You can use pre-existing teams for examples if you want.
 
I've always liked the wrecking crew as a supervillain team, (for some reason) but when you think about it, they aren't a great team, not only do they all pretty much have the same power, but with the the exception of Thunderball, none of them have any real intelligence or motivations.

Mean, but true. Seriously, get rid of Luke Cage and then we got space for Iron Fist. At least that ****er wears a costume:mad:


And yeah, that sounds like a good book. It could be called "The All-Black Team." Or "Bad Muthas." Reginald Hudlin could write it:)
