The Synthetic Six (Vs. Mr. Universe)

 

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.
