The leader should be a big strong guy, but not someone you'd peg as a team leader (like Herc, a team player, even comedy relief, but no one expected him to have his own team book).
The woman should be a femme fatale. Someone in the spy game or related field that can kick ass.
A buddy team, or two characters from the same source material. Lotsa leeway on powers and such. Whatever you think fits. I have no idea yet what i'm going with.
A spooky character that makes you go 'huh?' For being on a team.
Not my best idea, but i havent contributed one in a while.
Hercules: David Dunn (Unbreakable) superhuman levels of strength, stamina, and invulnerability. The very definition of the reluctant hero, doubt anyone would guess He'd get his own comic much less lead this team.
Black Widow: Agent 99 (Get Smart 2008) superspy chick with lots of gadgets and guns. Extremely dangerous.
Ghost Rider: Lucifer Morningstar (Lucifer) Very charming and horny, he wants very much to try being a superhero after a successful run as a police investigator assistant.
Iceman: Phoebe Thunderman (The Thudermans) A telekinetic teen with freeze breath and other powers, David who's still figuring out what he can do has to mentor her and her brother too.
Angel: Billy Thunderman (The Thundermans) A speedster with heat vision, tags along with his big sis because he's bored.
Hey thats really nice!
Didnt think you watched XD shows, either. Great build, bro.
Mine turned out spae-y but not on purpose. Once i made my first pick, it just fell into place that way.
I gave myself extra points, since the Johnny Jaqobis actor's twin brother played Iceman (the character he's basically subbing for here) in the X Men movies!
The big, strong guy:
JAYNE COBB-Firefly
On a crew with Mal Reynolds, Zoe Washburn, and even Shepherd Book, Jayne gets lost in the shuffle. He's just the big guy, occasional comedy relief, and not someone you'd think would lead his own team. But he's got the tools.
The femme fatale:
MELINA [redacted]-Total Recall
Total recall? More like total hottie. Versed in espionage, weapons, h2h, kicking corporate and mutant ass. A well rounded, space faring spy.
The two guys from one movie/show:
D'AVIN & JOHNNY JAQOBIS- Killjoys
Older brother D'avin is a battle hardened Soldier with low level psychic powers from having been linked to an alien hive mind.
Younger brother Johnny is a tech savvy self described super nerd who will also shoot you in the face if needed.
Spooky character doesnt seem right on a team:
RO-MAN-Robot Monster
Not so much spooky as other worldly; an alien gorilla with a mechanical head who was intent on wiping out all humans until it fell in love with an Earth girl.
No one is quite sure what motivates it now.
Concept: At the docks in a certain city a group of "strange" people gathered to steal a certain item from the hold of a cargo ship. Police intel is hazy on what exactly the item was because they blew the ship and most of the docks to hell. Fortunately there were not many caualties, reports say 30-35 employees of a certain businessman who is an alleged dealer in illegal merchadise met their bitter end. Your job Detective, is to question some of these "unusual" people we've rounded up who were reportedly seen in the areas at the time. Find out what was stolen and who set this all up.
The Rules: Assemble a group of 8 suspects to question from live action movies & TV, no Marvel/DC.
6 males and 2 females because we are equal opportunity interrogators.
Each suspect must have an unusual physical feature, OR a strange ability.
The Twist: They don't all have to be criminals or evil but 1 of them will be a disguised Keyser Söze, it's up to you who that is.
But don't say who it is, let's guess.

Hey Nuke, for my own fun, i'm doing a fantasy/sword & sorcery and a western version of the Champions team (big guy, femme, two guys, spooky guy), but on both, cant come up w. a good spooky.
Any suggestions?
