Dream-Teaming Round 9 Redo: Get Ready True Believers!

[bluebeast]

Okay you're an assistant editor at the comic book publisher of your choice. You're boss comes in and tells you to drum up some roster ideas for a team-book they'd like to set-up for a future creative team to write. He asks for a proposal including: The roster of the team, The driving idea, explainations for character choices, and the creative team you'd like to see.

THE RULES------------------------

1) The winner of the last round becomes the moderator of the round, and thus gets to choose the team in question to be built. He must also name the roster to be filled, which should be at least 4, but no more than 9.

2) You may not use more than 4 characters common in anyone else's team in the round, as in if team one has characters a,b,c,d,e, team two can have characters a,b,c,d in common, but cannot use character e. The team posted first takes priority.

3) You must write a brief two or three sentence plot summary, an explanation for each team member, and the creative team you'd like to see on the book.

4) After TEN DAYS, the round is declared closed. People will vote via PM and send it to the moderator, who will count the votes and declare winner. Like the Ultimatization Game, you CANNOT vote for yourself.

5) The winner declared gets to choose the team in the next round.

This Round:

FANTASTIC FOUR​

If you guys can't think of anything for this team I'm done. You have two weeks.

Since no one played last round I will post up something to blow your minds, this is the final event in the long planned series of events that started with Secret War. At least as how it should end. I present to you:

THE FEARSOME FOUR​

The Dark Reign is over, and Norman Osborn has lost. Rising from the ashes as he they had planned, Victor Von Doom and Namor have taken hold over the planet Earth. Seeking no opposition from the most powerful of contesters, Doom and Namor recruit two others in their bid to control the world. Giving Magneto his abilities back through magic (a feat that not even Dr. Strange was capable of) and returning Bruce Banner to his status as the Green Scar, Doom forms a mockery of Richard’s great family. Now, a group of the last remaining heroes; Invisible Woman, the Thing, Captain America, Winter Soldier, Thor, Spider-Man, Daredevil, Luke Cage, Nick Fury, Iron Man and Cyclops, Beast, Wolverine, Emma Frost and Colossus; are the only heroes capable of saving the world from Doom and his Fearsome Four. But are these so-called villains making the world a twisted version of their own images, or turning it into utopias that advance society by centuries?

Doctor Doom​

The architect of Osborn’s downfall, Von Doom killed the former Green Goblin and toppled HAMMER with all of his power. With only the heroes standing in his way Doom offers an ultimatum, join or die. Taking control of all of Europe, Africa and Asia as the New Latveria, Doom leaves it to his generals to police the rest of the world. He is also keeping Richards locked up in an arboretum inside his thrown room. Doom is now content with his world view, knowing that he has finally beaten Richards.

Namor the Sub-Mariner​

King of the Seven Seas, Namor did most of the conquering of HAMMER with his Atlantean forces, giving Doom the power that he has been seeking. Giving Doom two demands for helping him out, Namor only demands that the oceans be left alone from now on, and that Susan Storm is given to him. Despite betraying his former teammates and colleagues, Namor is fine with it as long as the oceans are fine.

The Green Scar​

Seeing as Banner is stuck in his puny human form, he seems as if nothing to Doom. Initially fighting Dr. Doom’s offer, Banner is given no choice when he is forcibly transformed back into the Green Scar by he and Namor. Giving the Green Scar North and South America, Doom finds him a place among his ‘Four’. Scar is given his kingdom back, and his subjects return to him. Oh, and he rips Red Hulk’s head off through his ******* in a climactic fight. Just ‘cause.

Magneto​

The final member of Doom’s version of the Four, Magneto is given his abilities back through a process that only Von Doom knows about. Given the chance to reignite the mutant population through Doom’s unknown means, Magneto accepts his offer and is given back Asteroid M and the Moon with a mutant army in order to be the first line of defense against any alien attack.

This would be the Marvel event that would set everything back to the way it should be in the Marvel Universe. It would finally keep the Marvel heroes away from an ‘event’ for awhile and maybe have these guys start being heroes again instead of fugitives or soldiers. And it would also bring about the return of a long deceased person of the Marvel Universe.

Fantastic 4
The replacements​

I've designed this as an outside continuity series. Partly because I don't read Marvel now and Partly because it gives me more leeway. This Mini-series takes elements of various different versions of characters and combines them to a more solid whole.

Story : - The original Fantastic 4 are missing. Disappeared on a recent space mission. However when Doctor Doom shows up demanding the fantastic 4 face him in dual . Spider-man decides to put together a team based on the fanatic 4 to face doom. He choices his team based on what they can do.

They stop Doom for a little but know he and other fantastic 4 villains will be coming back. So the new group is here to stay until the originals are found. So a new team is formed. Old love between Iceman and Kitty Pryde is rekindled. But with the new group seeming more thrown together than the old can they become close enough to be like family? Only time will tell.



Spider-man Why? I remember he applied once plus the whole "Amazing bag" and more have lead to a few Fantastic 4 crossovers so he Seems a good fit. He's matured over the years too the point where he'd be a good leader for the team. Plus he has enogh of an interest in science to be like the new reed of the group.


She-Hulk - I wanted people like the 4 we've seen before but different. She hulk not only matches my need for a strong femalel member but also matches my need for Thing like strength. How-ever she's different enough from both for it to seem like new.



Iceman The reason is every time I've seen him he has the same cockiness as the human torch. Plus Fire + Ice are similar in the temperature based powers but yet opposite too to make it different. For that reason he is on my team.




Katherine Pryde I needed a Stealth character and I needed a relationship and she has dated Iceman out side of 616 so this is what I'm going for. Her powers make her a great substitution for invisible woman as though she's not invisible going through walls ect.. adds a similar effect.




Villain : Doctor Doom - He is basically large scale enough to need a team to face him but he is also IMO the essential fantastic 4 villain and is needed to make the group seem more like a fantastic 4 group.


Written by : Joss Whedon - The reason I LOVED his out of continuity Astonishing X-men, I think if he was to do this it'd be great to read and fun too which is all I want really a fun good comic.

Art by : Mark Bagley - I loved his ultimate spider-man Art it was fun and looked good. This comic is not meant to be epic enough to warren someone like Alex ross. It's just meant to be entertaining. Mark Bagley's art mirrors what I intended.

Astonishing X-Men was not out of continuity. It was very much in.

I thought his run was out? that's why they never lead to events or were effected by events.

But fair enough. I'l still keep it as is as I liked all the choices. But did you really need to quote my entire post to find fault with 1 line?

Oops.

He finished the run but the stuff that happened as appeared in other books. Like SWORD and Agent Brand.

And Kitty is still missing.

Ah cool. Yeah Mine is out of continuity but cool I honestly thought otherwise. Thank you

 

[Zombipanda]

Hm! I actually really like that team, Mole... Good work.

Ha! Same universe now, *****es!

FANTASTIC FOUR​

Mr. Incredible

Elasti-Girl

Violet

Dash

 

[Gemini]

Ignore this better idea coming forthwith

 

[Ultimate Houde]

My Fantastic Four.

Mine will deal with magic in the Marvel Universe, and the team will be the magic equivalents of the Fantastic Four. The premise? Magic is running wild throughout the known universe, and these people need to fix it.

Stephen Strange

He's the magical equivalent of Reed Richards. His knowledge and wisdom will help the team fix the problem.

Amanda Sefton

She's sexy. Would there be another reason to have her besides her being a magical powerhouse?

Juggernaut

The Wild Magic has caused Cain's Gem to go haywire, resulting a horrific transformation within Cain. He now must set it right to become what he once was.

Ian McNee

I like him.

 

[Iceshadow]

I got my team together, now I just got to write it up.

 

[Zombipanda]

Here's my cast for an independent team of adventurers unaffiliated with any government or agency. I'll post up details later.

Fantastic Four: Second String

Mastermind Excello/Amadeus Cho

Rescue/Pepper Potts

Wyatt Wingfoot

She-Hulk/Jennifer Walters

 

[Ultimate Houde]

You do love Wyatt Wingfoot.

 

[Zombipanda]

You do love Wyatt Wingfoot.

hahaha. Yeah, well, I'm a Wingfoot fan. I wanted a cast of characters that are second or third string, and Wyatt's relationship with She-Hulk and his connection back to the Fantastic Four made him a good fit. I like the idea that this guy who's basically just a regular old pilot is more experienced with the sort of craziness the Fantastic Four face than the rest of the heroes that make up the team. Plus, he fits well as a match for Johnny Storm's personality.

 

[ProjectX2]

I want a team consisting of Reed Richards, Namor, Dr. Strange and someone else like She-Hulk with the Reed Richards in Doom armour from Earth X as the antagonist but I don't have a story.

 

[Ultimate Houde]

We don't need to make stories for this type of thing, just mash some characters together.

 

[ProjectX2]

We don't need to make stories for this type of thing, just mash some characters together.

But that's not as fun and/or challenging.

 

[Zombipanda]

But that's not as fun and/or challenging.

It's true. We need more games that focus on the story pitch.
