Rangers full stop. They have an interesting theme (western) and they have the most potential to be a GOTG style breakout if they get the right creatives on board.

Yeah, I always loved Texas Twisters powers, and Red Wolf has potential, and Armadillo has a neat redemption arc going on, and Shooting Star, gosh, is she a mutant again this week? I have no idea, but would like if she was able to fly under her own power again! And I like Living Lightning, and characters-what-turn-into-energy (like Monica Rambeau) in general. And Firebird, too? Great potential! And it would be refreshing to see a team far, far, far away from New York City, the superhero playground! (And if it's not New York, it's LA. Having a team set in Texas, or New Orleans, Atlanta, or Florida, would be a nice twist.)

In addition to the Rangers, I also like;

Hardball and Komodo, both individually and as a kind of messed up couple.
Telemetry, whose visual is cool and has neat powers (last I saw her in Fear, Itself, she was also very competent and had leaderly chops!).
Armory. I vaguely recall her losing her gun-arm/powers, but I'd love to see her get it back.
Gorilla Girl. Just because I loved her practical genre-savvy attitude. "I'm a girl, I'm black and my super-power is to turn into a gorilla. Of course I'm gonna die first. I'm outta here!" (And then she came back and did the hero thing anyway!)

I’m hoping Armory appears in the upcoming Reckoning War along with Gauntlet and Southpaw.

I love that Pioneer is one of the characters appearing right now. From the moment her team appeared (and were instantly wiped out) I wanted to see more of her.
