The Mongrels from Jason Aaron's Wolverine Goes to Hell/Wolverine's Revenge saga? Yeah, that was so utterly f***ed up, especially how it ended, though it did make sense for where Aaron wanted to take Logan as a character, interrogating the costs and toll of a life enmeshed in blood and violence and having him eventually realize he wanted something better to leave behind for the next generation.
The spider is always on the hunt.
You know... thought again... and they never spent any time exploring the fact that Tsuzana can just.... see Mutants. Her Ultra-vision lets her just look at people to identify Mutants. that's not the only thing Ultra-vision is good for, but... it's notable that it SPECIFICALLY does that.
The Shining (space) Knight gathers his Seven Soldiers…:
ROM
I wanted a brave Knight to form this team, and who better than Rom?
RICHARD RIDER & SAM ALEXANDER
They’re the Crimson Avenger and Wing of the team, more or less.
NOH-VARR & HERCULES
Like Star Spangled kid and Stripesy we have the young hero and his older bigger sidekick.
GLADIATOR & KID GLADIATOR
They’re Green Arrow and Speedy by default.
STAR-LORD
He’s a (space) cowboy, complete w. A signature gun on his hip.
^^^In a negative sense it could concievably have put her in the crosshairs of any number of anti mutant groups (FoH, CoH, The Right, etc.) looking to force/coerce her to ferret out hidden mutants.
In the positive side she could’ve been a low tech Cerebro and work w. pro mutant organizations in helping to verify reported mutant sightings and help individuals or families adjust to the changes.
That and her Kree connections would’ve put her in a pretty unique niche.
Shortly after WWII the House Un-American Activities Committee demands all Mystery Men cease their dangerous, unauthorized vigilante activities immediately. Most comply and retire, many don’t and are hunted down and arrested, some slip through the cracks, and a few…
CAPTAIN UNIVERSE (Dr. Manhattan)
The super man exists, and he’s American.
THE LAUGHING MASK (The Comedian)
Continues his violent activities while on the Government’s payroll.
THE OPERATIVE (Rorschach)
He not only questions authority, he defies it.
THE BLONDE PHANTOM (Silk Spectre)
The battling bombshell turned Hollywood starlet. Grooming her daughter to take her place one day.
THE BLACK FOX (Nite-Owl)
His high tech gadgets and old fashioned fisticuffs made him the scourge of the underworld.
THE URANIAN (Ozymandias)
The press briefly called him “Marvel Boy”, when he arrived to save the world. And he WILL save the world.
A nineties era Outsiders team set in the Marvel Universe.
DAREDEVIL (Batman)
DD uses the team as a way to fight outside his weight class, taking on wider scope villains he wouldn’t be able to beat on his own.
LUKE CAGE (Black Lightning)
You usually can’t say “Powerman” without saying “Iron Fist”, but there was a time in the nineties when Luke was flying solo.
ELEKTRA (Katana)
While she’d likely think this idea was silly, Elektra will always have DD’s back.
MORPH (Metamorpho)
The shapeshifting funny man’s annoying sense of humor aside, he’s an underrated powerhouse.
LIGHTSPEED (Halo)
This is the first (but not the last) time Julie Power will go off to have adventures without her siblings. She even has a costume she uses strictly for Outsiders missions.
MARVEL BOY (Geo-Force)
DD just beat out a new hero named Night Thrasher in recruiting Vance Astrovik, a young, powerful telekinetic. He’ll come to act as the team’s moral compass.
SERSI (Looker)
The Eternal party girl is on the team in exchange for DD’s legal services, for those times when her soirées get a little too wild and result in property damage and/or neighbor complaints.
