Who would you choose as your powerhouse for your team?

Who would you choose as your powerhouse on your team. The main person to go to when you have a main threat. The person to get the job done again an enemy.

Lets pretend that the people below have that team player instinct but they still possess the same attitude.

Thor
Superman
Silver Surfer
Hal Jordan
Firestorm

Superman
Hal Jordan
Thor
SS
Firestorm <-- why the fuuck is he on this list?

I'd probably go with SS, though Superman or Thor would work out better in the public relations sense. Hal is good, but more a secondary/"back-up" powerhouse, or a "co-powerhouse", so to speak. Firestorm is powerful, but generally not on par with the others in an across the board sense.

I think SS is the strongest here, but I'd probably pick Superman because he has chiseled good looks.

no homo

Thor.. He's more of a physical powerhouse IMO than surfer,.. But has a wider range of abilities than superman

Thor: Has the balls to get the job done and is better in most areas than Hal.

Hal: Has the balls to get the job done.

Supes: Is 2nd last because I feel he doesn't have any balls to get the job done at times.

SS: Is last because I feel he doesn't have any balls to get the job done at times.

I would choose Silver Surfer, because he's like a Swiss Knife, while being the most powerful out there.

So would you pick Wolverine, Nuul?

Re: Who would you choose as your powerhouse for your team?

I'd go with Superman, then I'm about tied between Thor and Surfer. Surfer's the most versatile power-wise, but Superman's good not just at fighting, but talking enemies down and rallying allies, which are pretty important too.

1. Thor. His powerset enables him to physically go toe-to-toe with a lot of people and Mjolnir grants him a wide array of versatility in its own right. His warrior mindset and skill in battle also is a plus. End of the day, Thor gets shit done.

Thor is mentally unstable. goes crazy often, got daddy issues, etc etc.

Silver Surfer is nothing but a glorified erand boy.

Hal is a good 2nd option

Thor is also the guy that always wants to get shit done no matter what. Blood and Oath is a good example.

I'd take Hal. He brings the least baggage with him. Superman has too many people out to get him. Thor is possibly even worse. And I wouldnt care to have Galactus or a jealous herald knocking on the door looking for SS either. Hal is simple. Hes tough, versatile, and has s obscene amount of backing from the rest of the Corps.

The Mythological type Supers are good for declaring War on enemies.

Lol at Hal having the least baggage

SS - Cosmic awareness gives him an advantage that none of the others can match and is too valuable to ignore, imo.

Surfer would only be on loan until Galactus takes him back for the 50th time. Then what? Start accepting applications from Sentry? Screw that.

They all have other beings that they are somehow bound to:

Thor - Odin and residents of Asgard
Hal - Guardians and other GLs
Superman - Residents of New Krypton/bottled city of Kandor
Firestorm - Leaders of JLA (he's still a rookie after all)

Baggage is had all around. So I'd just go for the Cosmic level powers and senses that SS offers. Not that it matters much, this is really just a matter of personal preference.

I agree Surfer is a liability so are lanterns though and now if they go rogue cyborg lanterns will not only turn off their rings but they will also buttrape them.

Im not downing the Surfer at all. Im just saying they are all pretty much strong enough that, for a earth bound team, the difference is moot. Surfer is too naive and too much of a pacifist for me. And I stand by my point that him and the other 2 are like bug zappers for trouble.
