Task Force T
I pity the fool who wouldn't want to read the adventures of this group! Personally I would be sold by the inclusion of Chaselon alone. Like being a sentient diamond with robotic limbs and a Green Lantern ring wasn't enough, he's got a mohawk to put his cool factor over the top! No more jibba jabba! Here's my sixty cents!

Ha! This is awesome just for the Mohawks themselves! Very cool to see Nuklon included. I enjoyed reading the original '80's Infinity, Inc. That was a cool book until Crisis on Infinite Earths. This is such a great '80's line-up!
Nice one! I didn't realize there were soon many characters with Mohawks.
Hey Ross, What... no Daken or Yondu??? otherwise another of your great team creations (always way fun) and another superlative cover....
later... jack-el
Brilliant!
Yondu has a fin, not a mohawk! And Daken... he came around just as I stopped buying Marvel, I don't have much interest in him.
No Savage Dragon?
Like Yondu, that's a Fin not a mohawk. Mohawks are made out of hair.
OK i'll give you that there is a distinct difference between a fin (non-hair) and a mohawk, however Yondu in the Gaurdians movie played by Michael Rooker had a definate mohawk....
peace out..... jack-el
I would guess that Mr. T, as the only non-powered member, would play much the same role in this team as Captain America in the Avengers.
It would definitely add even more to Mr. T's "bad@$$ cool" factor if he could inspire these powerhouse characters to follow him.
Now, all we need is the pet dog he had on his short-lived Saturday morning cartoon series!*
*Sort of a Neapolitan mastiff/Chinese crestie mix.
Brilliant! Too bad there was mohawk than I could stand! Love how you come up with crazy stuff no one's ever considered before!
Yondu and Savage Dragon... could they be the start of another group, the Finheads? ;)
PS: Still hoping for the return of Robo-Force in these pages.
Robo-Force will return... as will at least a couple of other teams...
How about the green team vs the green means: Dr. Solar, Hulk, & Martian Manhunter against silver age Brainiac, Leader and Abimination?
By the way, Mr. T might clobber everone because he insist that his hair do is not a mohawk but I forget what he did call it. Anyway, it always looked like a Mohawk to me. I also did not realize there were so many mohawk super characters. Good idea.
He called it a "Mandinke" hairstyle (after a West African tribe, I believe).
Brilliant!
I pity the fool that goes up against this team!
