    Default 5 spies vs DC & Marvel’s Intelligence agencies

    Here’s the challenge you pick five intelligence agents from television, movies and books to take on ARGUS, DEO, Checkmate along with SHIELD Department H and MI13. Who are your operatives & who’s going to win or lose?

    James Bond
    Eggsy(Kingsman)
    Ethan Hunt(Mission Impossible)
    Evelyn Salt(Salt)
    Jason Bourne

    I don’t know that many spies, if John wick counts I would switch him for Jason Bourne

    The ENTIRETY of those organisations?!

    That’s… just no.

    Unless all of those agencies are at an all-time low in terms of resources.

    I mean does Department H, just for example, currently include Alpha Flight and/or an extant Weapon X programme? I have completely lost track.

    (Of course I could just use my usual default of finding 5 agents of Special Circumstances from the Culture books, including the one from… I wanna say the novel Matter… who has a tactical nuke in her brain as a last resort.)

    *coughs* Imperium Godkillers are kind of Intelligence Agents.

    But I like your choice. ^_^

    Wait, I can't pick who I want without major spoilers for the games they are from! The whole point of spies is that they are SECRET.

    Here's my team:
    James Bond
    Ethan Hunt
    Jason Bourne
    Anna Devane
    Ziva David

    Their mission(should they accept) would be to gather all intel on the covert missions that were conducted in the multiverse from all those agencies without getting caught

    I find modern DC continuity bewildering. Is Alan Scott still one of the leaders of Checkmate?

    I'll take agents from the UK Supernatural fighting agencies:

    The Checquy and Grafters merged agency
    The Laundry
    The Droods

    I'd have to research the names of the individuals. However, if supernatural agencies are out - sorry. These folks would stomp any of the human agencies unless they are raised up with tech or magic.

    Actually there’s probably agents from Unit or Torchwood that are worth looking at. Jack Harkness for example.

    Always but I'm surprised that no one mention anybody from shows like MI5(Spooks),Covert Affairs, and both versions of La Femme Nikita

    They don’t really have the feats or ability to pull this off.

    Section One from the original Nikita TV show was borderline SF, and they couldn’t manage against these super-agencies.

    Does "books" include comics?

    616 Carol Danvers was a spy for a while, and got awfully powerful in recent Marvel continuity: she could be useful here. The members of WAND in recent Dr. Strange comics are spy-adjacent and would certainly be useful, though they are maybe kinda sorta SHIELD?

    You'd certainly need some superhuman juice to have a chance to take out all of those foes with everything they bring to the table.
