For this, the third appearance of The Synthetic Six, I needed an opponent to truly challenge them. Who better to fit the bill than STF's arch super-villain, Mr. Universe, making his 17th appearance?

Mr Universe is just Captain Universe after his discharge
Mega Man / Rock Man from Japan could be added to the team, making it the Synthetic Seven!
More likely, a post-pubescent Kid Eternityl
@Bobbo: that might be magnificent. ;-)
@Ross: this would be an action-packed real world read, indeed. Although, something tells me it wouldn't be long before Mr. Universe resurfaced for an 18th time!
P.S.---how about a reunion between the Blackhawks and Sgt. Fury's Howling Commandos? It's been almost seven years since they were last seen, together (@ STF #2628)!
Why not? It might even be Mr. Eternity that they were trying to keep from turning some "town into a crater."
I actually had completely forgotten that this group existed. Perhaps in some future appearance they can be joined by, as a one-time guest, an elderly Jean-Luc Picard. And a decent foe for them could be General Grievous.
Also, I've been pondering a "Cyber Force" lately, which would be one more step removed from Robo Force: Cyborg (Vic Stone), Steve Austin, Seven of Nine, Misty Knight, Luke Skywalker, and maybe Robocop.
(Admittedly, Vic might more appropriately fit into this group here, depending on which iteration one gravitates toward. I tend toward the original, where the pieces that still look organic are in fact organic.)
And on another note, I'd love to see SAM (Kerrice Brooks's character on Star Trek: Starfleet Academy) teamed up with... well, just about anyone, though Warlock (of the New Mutants) would seem most fitting since they have so much in common.
How does Mr Universe get away from all these groups where he can't be trailed? Seeing Eight Man is a special enjoyment. Eight Man and The Vision might be a great team. Android and human mixes.
He must hide out in a galaxy far, far away...with his girlfriend Abeloth.
A great cover but you seem to be making too many trips to the Mr. Universe well here lately. Give him a break & let some unused foes shine. Some Marvel foes like the Serpent Society, Belladonna, Freedom Force, Fenris, & the Morlocks for example.
Or maybe even Mangog? ;-D
@both of the above Anons: could we drop that subject, immediately and permanently? Please!!!!!!!
Robotman III? I thought Cliff was the second Robotman. Who was the second one then? I don't remember more than two in Who's Who either.
I made the same mistake during the first two seconds I looked at this. That's a Roman numeral two followed (a little too closely) by an exclamation point! :-)
Wouldn't it be easier just to team up the Synthetic 6 with one of the Robo Forces?
Ah! So, you were referring to STF #3417? I'd half-seriously be in favor of that.
You could count the Earth-Two & Earth-One versions of the original separately, before adding Cliff as III.
I've always felt that Cliff Steel's Late Silver Age body--the one that vaguely resembled Rog 2000--was technically Robotman III.*
*I am, of course, referring to the mid-1980's version of the Doom Patrol that also featured Negative Woman, Arani aka Celsius, and Josh "Tempest One" Clay.
Robotman 3 was a comic strip character who stole the title from DC. Maybe a team of stolen names from the company should debut here sometime = Captain Marvel, Spider Girl, Quicksilver, (Bozo) The Iron Man, Dazzler (a 1960s GL foe) etc.
^ Yeah, I made the same mistake as the rest of you. As a legally blind fan, 1 & 2 would've been easier to read than the Romans.
Not to mention DC's Wizard came before Marvel's Frightful 4 leader & then there is the Sandman from the same group. DC's legal department was gone longer than Marvel Girl LOL .
