Which Comic book character has the best showings take on teams

Which character not counting villains this is a hero thread.

Sentry, or if you want to use strict heroes, Hulk....but even then, he's nit exactly considered a hero as such.

1. Hulk
2. Superman
3. Silver Surfer
4. Batman🙂

I can't think of many hero's that have team showings minus Hulk and Superman.

Oh yeah, and Lobo.

Was keeping both the Suicide Squad AND the JLA, who were blood lusted, busy.

Spiderman is another. Sinister Six, New Sinister Six etc....

Flash has the Rogues.

Also, cap

Black Adam

Thanos, because sometimes he's a hero.

I disagree. Don't think Parker should make the list

I just couldn't think of a hero whose rogues regularly form groups.

Thanos, Prime, Black Adam and the two Prometheus

Thanos isnt a hero.

Superman and Hulk have good track records, with Hulk maybe having an edge.

Meh no worries. For what it's worth i wouldn't call supers or hulk team wreckers either.

Because there are always extenuating circumstances...someone on either side is always holding back. Place classic Hulk against a decent Avengers squad (not a bunch of streets and low metas) and hed lose. Same goes for Clark. He can't beat a non jobbing JLA.

When heroes wreck teams someone is always mind controlled, not themselves, not trying to hurt their friends, holding back etc...ive never seen a fight where everyone on both sides is going all out.

By that generality, no hero is a team wrecker.

Add 'agree to disagree' to 'haha'.

Do heroes going bad (or suffering effects of a darker side- for want of a better definition) count.

If so

Obsidian soloed the JLA until his dad fully cut loose.

Brainwave Jnr soloed a number of JLAers also and soled extreme Justice plus went to town on Alan Scot and Kyle Raynor.

Hellcat went up against a Defenders team (thought that was amped by a hell lord and IIRC possessed)

Robin faced a Brother Blood enraged Titans (that wasn't holding back but he did after all all their weaknesses). that was of course pre COIE Wolfman and Perez era.

There's the wildcat vs the injustice society (but lets be honest that was comlete and utter PIS)

when Stealth went all hormonal IIRC she cut a swaith through Legion (but then again we are talking the enhanced human level alien who occupied Lobo for 7 pages when he was out for Vril's blood and her HF/regen is pretty damn good)

Many a time in Mighty Crusaders Black Bood was the only one standing after his team mates fell, though he never really team wrecked just occupied the enemy villain team with his walking arsenal until his team mates got back into the fight.

Aside from those already mentioned that's the only heroes I can think of that have taken on actual teams

I have seen Cap tell the Avengers to stop holding back against the Hulk and Hulk still faired well against one of the most powerful Avengers line up to date. He also fought Alpha flight, Xforce (who doesn't believe in holding back), Xmen...he has fought every team on the planet. The holding back argument shouldn't weigh when a character has done this so often with the team being in near fear of facing him.

I have a hard time believing that line of thinking. Im gonna use Superman because I know how you feel about Hulk

Diana
Martian Manhunter
Flash (any)
GL (Any good one)

These four alone fighting at their best could ATLEAST stalemate supermen. Imo in a forum environment that there is noway for a character whod have a hard time facing these guys solo. Same goes for Hulk, his only saving grace is the avengers squads he's faced ar normally filled with fodder. U wont see him soloing Photon, Classic Thor, Classic Strange, Sentry whoever at the same time. Hed beat a giant man, wasp, cap, ms marvel and jobbing thor roster all day though
