I think it's so annoying that Marvel continues to limit the numbers of the Squadron Supreme. Amphibian, Skymax the Skrullian Skymaster, Arcanna, Red Eagle (since Blue Eagle stands in for Hawkman, maybe Red Eagle, some female linked to him - sister, cousin, ex-girlfriend, etc...- could stand in for Hawkwoman, who has been quite prominent for many years with the League), Lady Lark, Black/Golden Archer, etc... Any of them could add more diversity to the ranks of the Squadron on a more consistent basis. As much as I love the Squadron, those five usually are the ones that less interest me.
Peace
the Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver amalgam Silver Witch is also on the cover. They too originated briefly as villains in the Marvel U.
"After the Civil War that split the Squadron Supreme in half, Nighthawk formed his own Squadron in Europe," reads Marvel's description. "But not all of Europe is okay with it. Baron Zemo has put together his own team to take them down and the Squadron doesn't stand a chance."
Next: The Thunderbolts Squad!

You know, the more I see of this event, the more I think I’m gonna sit it out. It feels as pointless as Age of Ultron and Age of X-Man. I’m just glad it’s not pulling any of the comics line into it.
I'm pretty sure Gladiator was modeled after Superboy, not Mon-El. Look no further than the emblem on his chest. Mon-El has never worn anything of the kind on his chest, let alone a triangle which bears similar features to the diamond crest "S" that Superboy wore if you inverted it.
Further, the DC comic became Superboy and the Legion of Superheroes in 1977. Guess what year Gladiator (and the Imperial Guard) was first introduced? Yep, 1977. I highly doubt that Marvel would bother to homage the team and leave Superboy out of the mix during that era.
And just to put a bow on this, do you remember how Claremont referred to Gladiator when he fought Colossus in X-Men #137? IIRC, I believe CC used the phrase "Man of Steel" or something to that effect. Everyone knows that is Superman's sobriquet, not Mon-El's.

What sucks is the one shots and series are likely preventing new books until after the event it seems.
What if Marvel is DC had to be the one sentence pitch was it?
