Name the best Marvel Match Up to these Characters.
Which Marvel characters are most like these DC counterparts.
Superman
Batman
Darkseid
Katara
Terminator
Killer Crock
King Shark
Specter
Captain Atom
Doomsday
Green Lantern ( Hal or any GL )
Conner Kent
The list can be near endless I believe and you can add your own characters to the list of who you think which characters from each company best match up.
Superman - any Superman clone, really. I guess Hyperion is the closest, as some versions of him are literally solar-powered, as far as I know? Atomic vision instead of heat vision, argonite instead of kryptonite.
Alternatively, we could use Sun God, but it was Hickman's lazy writing and just a few appearances.

Batman - The Rider (again, same problem as with Sun God), Nighthawk, Moon Knight...
Darkseid - Thanos, of course
Katara? Don't you mean Katana?
Terminator - Marvel literally had his own Terminator army in 90s X-Men TAS. Alternatively, I dunno, Deathlok seems like a good pick?
Killer Croc - Lizard, but only because of similar mutation - they operate differently.
King Shark - Tiger Shark after mutating further?
Spectre - Black Spectre 😛 Nah, joking. Any cosmic being flavour of the week could be Spectre's equivalent, depending on writer's mood.
Captain Atom - Neutron, maybe?
Doomsday - Mangog?
Green Lantern - Projector and Quasar.
Conner Kent - any weaker/less popular Superman clones.

Wrong.

Without criteria, I'll go by characterization instead of power set:
Superman - Captain America. The heart and soul of their companies.
Batman - Actually a tough one. There are a lot of prep masters, but as a character, you need an obsessive compulsive control freak with a tragic history. On that count, the closest is actually.. Frank Castle.
Darkseid - No one really. Thanos is a nihilist, most other god villians want power. Darkseid's thing is wanting to erase free will..
Katara
Terminator - Slade? I suppose T'challa is a close analogy, similar ruthlessness, similar penchant for targeted tech countermeasures, similar enhanced human stats.
Killer Crock - Biggest loser in DC, so.. Stiltman. Or maybe Gargan. 😛
King Shark
Specter - Classic Spectre: Ghost Rider.
Captain Atom - General Ross. 😈
Doomsday - Mangog.
Green Lantern ( Hal or any GL ) - Nova Richard Ryder.
Conner Kent - The new kid Nova.
Black Spider comes to mind, but only because of the name and their costumes having the spider/web motif.

And posing style:
Other than that, they're nothing alike. One is a hero, other is a villain. One has powers, the other does not.
Still. It's obvious DC was once again stealing ideas from the superior copany.
