    Default Creating A Super Family Team

    Team ups of hero teams under the same IP are popular.

    Into the Spider-Verse with the Spider Team of parallel universe variants






    The BatFam has several team-ups and crossovers in the comics and animated media.



    (Include Luke Fox, Kate Kane, Selina Kyle and Stephanie Brown)


    Superman is due for his own mainstream team-up crossover.

    From the comics and animated media, the only multi-Superman stories I can think of are Death of Superman (with Steel, Supergirl, Superboy, Eradicator and Clark) and Superman Beyond (with Clark, Ultraman, Shazam Earth 5, Captain Atom Earth 4 and Overman.




    With the Kryptonians all having the same stock abilities, I figured you could play around with the roster and use other analogues who exist in Superman's lane. So there is a diversity of powers and abilities.

    My own list would look like:
    Superman
    Shazam
    Power Girl
    Buddy Blank OMAC
    Orion
    Maxima or Barda


    Feel free to make your own lists.

    Excluding Supermen with direct copies of Clark’s powers:

    Superman
    Steel (John Henry Irons)
    Super-Man (Kenan’s powers are mystical in nature so being the magic Superman should give him a pass)
    Apollo
    Maxima
    Power Girl (Tanya Spears)
    Super-Chief

    The 'Team Superman' of the late 90s of Steel, the Linda Danvers Supergirl, and 90s Conner was perfect. They were all distinct both in ability and personality and each had a strong personal connection to Superman without being just another Kryptonian. I'd start with those 3 and expand from there.

    Ah, the halcyon days. Things were much simpler then.
    Honestly, I'd give Linda/Matrix's power set to Power Girl. That would set her further apart from Kara. Since DC is committed to keeping both of them around.

    Other characters who could join a Super Family, Nightwing and Flamebird. A good idea from New Krypton that is worth visiting again.






    Creating a Legion of Evil Supermen, my list would look as follows.

    Ultraman - Earth 3/Antimatter
    SuperDoom - Earth 45
    Wraith - Superman Unchained
    Cyborg Superman - Henshaw >>> Zor-El
    Black Lantern Superman




    I made this thread because there are so many Superman variants and clones in the DCU alone. Making a list of evil Supermen, you still have Zod, Superboy Prime, Black Adam, Bizarro, Justice Lord Superman, Soviet Superman and Injustice Supes.

    Leaving Conner, Kara, and Jon out since (as far as abilities and aesthetics go) they're all just different shades of Clark. Especially Jon right now. So instead let's try...

    - Superman (duh)
    - Shazam
    - Nightwing (Chris Kent)
    - Steel (Natasha Irons)
    - Power Girl (Tanya Spears)
    - Martian Manhunter

    You had me until Goku. He's more accidental hero than anything. If it were Future Trunks, or even Great Saiyaman/Gohan, I'd be all in.

    Oh my God, Gohan/Great Saiyaman would probably think he'd died and gone to heaven if he ever wound up in the DC Universe...And then that dream come true would turn into a nightmare when he realizes that not even other superheroes think all the posing and soliloquies are cool or necessary XD

    Eh, he'd still do it anyway. With confidence to the point where even Supes would, half-heartedly, do a pose as well...

    Come on, DC and Shueisha, make a crossover like this happen! Where Gohan and his little family end up, temporarily, in a DC world! The world needs the Great Saiya-Family!

    This isn't meant to be a superhero crossover.It's just a crossover.It's a multversal crossovers with dudes.Superman himself be a scifi pulp fiction protagonist rather than a superhero.Meaning he would be like fantastic four like explorer if you may.Captain marvel is the superhero of the team(the savior).Goku is in there cause he can kick ass and he doesn't do the savior shtick.He is in there because he isn't a superhero.One punch man is in there looking for a heroic challenge that excites him and moreover this looks fun.Heck! would had superman meet john carter,doc savage,hugo danner..etc.

    yet,batman(the kewl guy) be like "i am vengence,i am the night and i am batman".Ofcourse,heroes think posing is cool.I love the posing.Heck! the circus guy in clark should show of his biceps...Supes would have a ball with gohan and pose his heart out

    I'd like to see someone do something with that weird humanoid version of Krypto from that Red & Blue issue.
    “Look, you can’t put the Superman #77s with the #200s. They haven’t even discovered Red Kryptonite yet. And you can’t put the #98s with the #300s, Lori Lemaris hasn’t even been introduced.” — Sam
    “Where the hell are you from? Krypton?” — Edgar Frog
