I got bored and revisited an old thing I once found:
Calamity Jon's Avengers Lineup Game
The Veterans
Photon / Monica Rambeau
Hercules
I don't remember much from No Surrender/ No Road Home, but iirc by the end of Stern's run they reached a kind of mutual respect in spite of their clashing personalities. It'd be fun to see tensions flare up as they're leading the team.
The Newcomers
Sabra / Ruth Bat-Seraph
Sleepwalker
Sabra's the team's Black Widow/Captain Marvel type, a professional agent with superpowers. Sleepwalker's a funky little dude who should get more action.
The Revamps of Existing Characters
Giant-Man / Raz Malhotra
Iron Patriot / Eugene "Flash" Thompson
Raz was poised to be an Avengers member when he was introduced, but he's been largely forgotten. In a Pymless era, we need a Giant-Man for the team. Flash is feeling unfulfilled and doing motivational speeches at high schools and VFW halls now that the Symbiote's hanging with Eddie Brock and his kid. During one of his appearances, he's approached by Henry Peter Gyrich, who offers him a set of working "legs" in exchange for staying in the Pentagon's back pocket. He reluctantly accepts. He's sent to assist this ad-hoc gang of superheroes and joins the team for real. It's awkward for him, not because he feels like he's holding onto a secret or because his teammates resent having the government involved in the team: he's tense because he just doesn't know these people.
I'm skipping the new characters because this isn't an OC-promotion thread
Wildcards
Tigra / Greer Grant, and her new boyfriend/former therapist...
Dr. Druid / Anthony Druid
Oh come on, this fucking guy?
