Oh wow!Fascinating! I did not know of Sapper! I ALWAYS welcome new obscure character lessons! Thank you!

Way to track the loonies! Definitely the place to be.

Colander Girl! Yes! I would add Sister Voodoo, Teen Hulk and Obnoxio the Clown into the mix as well. Great lineup
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Good call though, they all shoulda been in this one!

Good call on those three suggestions. I did get Obnoxio in there. fav.me/d2fpxbs

You know I remember them! Though, to me, they were a pretty awesome team. I would like to see Giffen, Maguire and DeMetteis bring them all back. To me they were anchored characters. Mostly due to my obsession with OHOTMU.
I still say it's a crime that Captain Ultra hasn't crossed paths with the GLA, Slapstick, Frogman, Squirrel Girl, etc.

Well, Captain Ultra was offered a spot on the Great Lakes Avengers, though he declined (as did Sleepwalker, El Aguila, and Kal-AOL from Marville among the rest)
Have you been following the current Deadpool book with Slapstick on his new Mercs for Money team?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That's right, I forgot about that! I remember being very disappointed that Ultra didn't at least sign on for reserve status.
I haven't, but I will try to search the covers and any scans I can find and I found one with Madcap, Slapstick AND Terror Inc!!! I will have to buy those issues for sure.

Easy enough, it's the current Deadpool series starting with issue 1 that came out November 2015. (Issue 6 came out this week but is a Deadpool 2099 story)

Awesome, thanks for the heads up!!

Wow, Forbush Man looks very serious, dark, and brooding. I guess that 's okay, considering all the adventures he's been on, including time travel, dimensional travel and dying.
I like how I can see Frogman's eyes through his "mouth."
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm glad you know those two!

Oh man poor Valerie (my oc) I made her train these guys I should have done my research on what shed get into... Although she didn't really agree to it

I do love that Squirrel Girl is hanging out in the Chicago area.

That's Surfstreak from the comic Brute Force.

Ohhhhh. That is some awesome right there.

Haha, Birdbrain needs to have his own mini. Guest-starring self-friend Warlock.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh man, you couldn't have picked a better guest star. Hell he needs his own mini and movie too!

Nice to see you recognize the ole boy!

Another great line up! Who is that girl in the front row with the pink skin? Looks a bit like Martian Man Hunter's sister, but now I'm getting my publisher's mixed up.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
She was a founding member of the Great Lakes Avengers. Mr. Immortal's girlfriend too.

My condolences to Mr. Immortal. You've got a point about super hero demises though, it's hard enough keeping track of just one death count, let alone the whole super hero spectrum.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No kidding. I'm still not over Elongated Man. For some reason they picked one of my top five in DC to break the rules with.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I always wonder how would Mr. Fantastic feels about Flatman.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, good question. I know he gets mistaken for Reed, but Reed is very self and science consumed. He probably doesn't even know about Flatman.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You're right, they probably never met each other.

Hey! You should put these n ames in the picture description! So that everyone would know who they are!

Nice touch adding the "What The" characters... but who exactly is the female version of Forbush Man next to Squirrel Girl anyway?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Glad you noticed!
She comes from a one tiny little drawing on the back of a "What the?" issue. I don't know if she was ever established anywhere else, but I noticed her and thought she needed a team!
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Squirrel Girl, Fullbrush Man, Milk & Cookies, and my boy Slapstick on the same team? HELL YEAH! I'm so happy I can even tolerate NFL Superpro or whatever his name is being there!
This is for sure the team Blue Beaver would try out for.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You totally will tolerate him!
Although I've stripped him of his NFL title.
Blue Beaver would be welcome, you know that!

Did you see back in the day when Doomsday ripped apart the JLA and Booster Gold had to wear that bulkier 90's armor? I like to think your version of SuperPro is wearing an AMERICA themed version of that suit.
PS there was another comic- by Warren Ellis, I think- also called Super Pro. It starred a hooker with super powers. It was much enjoyable.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, I remember that somewhat fondly. I remember Doomsday beating Blue Beetle by smashing his head in a car door!
PS Check this out: [link]
Much enjoyable indeed!

Birdbrain... and/or Boy! That was the storyline that was going on when I first got into TNM.
Howard! Madcap! Hmmm... who was the guy in the previous pic that looked like a hat-less Madcap?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Excellent recognition! It's so surprising to see who knows who from these pictures. These characters have been exposed so randomly.
Oh yeah, that was The Heckler! He had like a six issue mini at DC by Keith Giffen. The man behind Ambush Bug and Lobo. It's a great book.

I've been considering do a batch of random Marvel characters some day.

That makes my eyeballs sweat.

Its hard to believe all these guys are Marvel. LOL. Great job once again.
