I am somewhat surprised that Marvel doesn't use all of the Squadron Supreme analog characters all of the time, updating/reincarnating as necessary characters like Arcanna (Zatanna), Tom Thumb (Atom), Blue Eagle (Hawkman), Lady Lark (Black Canary), Golden/Black Archer (Green Arrow), Nuke (Firestorm), Skrullian Skrullmaster/Skymax (Martian Manhunter) and others.
If they wanted to, they could fill some of those spots using original Marvel characters. For example, Ant Man would be a perfect replacement for Atom. Monica Rambeau, or anyone with Quantum Bands easily replaces Dr. Light. Red Raven takes Hawkman's spot, and if they gave her wings back, Angela would make everyone forget all about Hawkgirl/Hawkwoman. Ditto with Songbird or Siryn as replacements for Black Canary. Solo adeptly replaces Green Arrow, right down to the political backstory and green body armor. We could go on and on and on.
Obviously, that's not what Marvel wants to do, but I'm saying it's possible.

REBORN #1 will welcome readers to a world where Tony Stark never built the Iron Man armor. Where Thor is a hard-drinking atheist who despises hammers. Where Wakanda is dismissed as a myth. And where Captain America was never found in the ice because there were no Avengers to find him. Instead, this world has always been protected by Earth’s Mightiest Heroes: the Squadron Supreme of America. And now, the Squadron faces an attack from some of their fiercest enemies, including Dr. Juggernaut, the Black Skull, the Silver Witch and Thanos with his Infinity Rings. But why is the Daywalker Blade the only man alive who seems to remember that the entire world has somehow been…reborn?
In REBORN #2, make way for the adventures of Marvel’s Mightiest Megastar, the all-powerful Hyperion! When America’s solar-powered, super-sentinel of liberty looks to return his archenemy Victor Von Doom to the Negative Zone, mighty Hyperion must deal with a breakout of his most powerful enemies, such as Ultron, General Annihilus, and the Immortal Hulk. Plus: a special backup tale starring Blade, Earth’s last living vampire.
In REBORN #3, brace yourself for chaos magic at Mach 5! Blur, the swiftest mortal alive, must win a race through the mind-bending Dread Dimension in order to save his soul from the hypersonic hexes of the Speedster Supreme, the Silver Witch. Plu: a back-up tale takes us inside the dark secrets of the Ravencroft Asylum and its newest inmate, the Phoenix.
And finally in REBORN #4, Doctor Spectrum, equipped with the cosmic might of his Power Prism, has become the most feared lawman in the heavens. But now the dark forces of deep space have sent the galaxy’s most notorious bounty hunter to end Spectrum once and for all. That’s right, here comes Rocket Raccoon! Plus: in a backup tale, the all-new Starbrand finds herself alone in a strange new universe.

Those are recreations of old covers, I guess.
"Cable was right!"
Can we erase the other two and just get the silver witch? I just know she's superior
OK The Hyperion cover is based on Spider-Man vs. Superman.

I'll give them credit for doing something that I never thought Marvel would ever do.
Can her majesty The Silver Witch get a Girlfriend that's a royal elemental phasing solar empowered Cyborg princess that's both emotionally unatached but a complete air-headed spirit of chaos?
Probably two months. If four issues are out in May, it must be weekly.

I wonder how the Silver Witch runs, dodges and looks where she is going while also concentrating and casting her hexes?
