The question is this, would the Avengers be an elite team in the DC Universe if every character that has ever been an Avenger were on call, and willing to act?

MrMind
they be teen titans level

Teen Titans, or the Titans are pretty powerful.

I take it back, that team is more powerful than the main members of the JLA.

They'd be an elite team. Up there with the JSAs and JLAs.

Without bringing over their villains too, the hero scene in DC would get overcrowded. Not to mention diluted.

Do you not know how to read? I said the standard team of JLA. At least PR caught on. That's the JLA and JSA combined.

I see that you still visit my twitter page. I see all. At least leave a like.

They'd be behind the JLA, JSA, Legion, All-Star Squadron, etc... still elite, but hard to break top 5.

No, that's the JLA. Most characters have been a member at one point or another.

Senor Cage
I forgot about the JL Dark. So, Avengers would be at least top 10.

Using the current roster, that team IS the JLA/JSA and there are some members there that haven't been a part of the JLA.

Top 3.

Senor Cage
No. All of those have been members.

About Outsiders level.


Just put Batman on the team, so they have one A lister.

My order in the DCU:

1. Justice league dark
2. JLA
3. JSA
4. Legion
5. Avengers

So, Avengers barely made it to the top 5.

Freedom Fighters at their peak (last few series) might be even more powerful than the Avengers. They dont have many weaknesses if at all.

I dont think you know about the Avengers lineup I posted, let alone some of the members that are missing.

You posted a picture of about twenty characters.

If they get 20, why don't the JLA and JSA get 20 too?

Because thr team i posted were the standard members of the Avengers world. The team that have been posted throughout this thread of the JSA and JLA isnt the standard team.

Stoic didn't say anything about it being a particular set of Avengers in the OP. Why are you deciding what roster we have to use?

AlbertoJohnAvil
Avengers has had far more members than the JL, also the Avengers members tend to have more experience dealing with the threats they face and have an better data base.
For instance every super team shares a data base of threats and potential threats.

JL has had maybe 25% of the DC hero population at one point being a member.
Marvel made every hero, anti-hero and sometimes villain a Avenger team member some shape way or form.

AlbertoJohnAvil
The JL takes on greater threats overall, they've also failed against high threats more than the avengers. Elite really is about equal since the every premier superhero in both companies have been on both respective teams.

I disagree, but it's moot because I have a more pressing question: Do you think that Stoic's intent was that everyone who had ever been an Avenger was brought in to DC and would function as a superhero team at least a hundred strong?

I think it far more likely that he meant an average line-up, or a sort of "dozen most common members" kind of thing.

He was never really an Avenger though.


Just the B team New Avengers. Shang is the one on the real Avengers team.

JL keeps the most consistently "elite" group.

My original post was about the standard members of the team. Then Mr. Mind replied mentioning a team that had nothing to do with my post.

The entire planet has been members of the JLA (WW3). stick out tongue

Agreed. If we go by peak, JLD is the most powerful. They have like 4 members who are cosmic level.

the top 4 is correct
though JSA's most powerful members may be above JLA and JLD

remember, spectre and classic fate was in there at some point, also sentinal alan, obsidian, shade etc

my list would be

1. Legion
2. JSA
3. JLD
4. JLA
5. Authority

that's of course not counting various lantern corps
