guess the theme

[gameplan.exe]

Angel
Batman
Storm
Wolverine

Are they all vampires in alternate realities? I don't know about Angel but Batman has Blood Reign, Storm has Mutant X and Wolverine had two issues of What If where he was "Lord of the Vampires"

No... and I'll give this clue - this is an Overpower-specific relationship...

All of them have 3 variants. Assuming you count Angel from the Marvels.

-BBH

Right-O! well, to specify, they all have 3 variants with IQ on them (yes, including The Marvels).

[Nostalgic]

specifically, they were all the losing characters in the fan-voted marvel vs DC matches(wolverine beat lobo, but he's not in overpower)

If lobo were in overpower what do you guys think his stats/inherent would be? Do you think he should have a personal negate or a "weird" morbius style negate?

[Bios]

Hey guys, someone could make an extremely obvious theme?
I couldn't guess anything yet! 

If lobo were in overpower what do you guys think his stats/inherent would be? Do you think he should have a personal negate or a "weird" morbius style negate?

I made him 8S/7F. Actually I gave him an anti negate special, like Zealot's special.

[The Dude]

Yeah I think based on the DC3 artwork we can assume Lobo would have been an 8S based on that character listing (and I would assume Mordu the 8E, Deathstroke the 8F and possibly Spectre as the 8I).

So any guesses on the Luthor-Parasite-Joker-Ra's team?
I will give a hint the connection is comic-related but not continuity related.

I really want to say that they all have a connection with the lazarus pits but I just cannot remember anything for Lex. I know Ra's used them (duh), Joker used it and it made him sane, Parasite was in a group that had its hideout in the caves.....but Lex? This is mindbending.....

[breadmaster]

comics related, but not continutity related

hmmm...that suggests creators, colour schemes...what else?...dates maybe?

i'm drawing a complete blank on this baby!

EDIT:

as i was thinking about the colour comment...could the link be 'green'

lex: kryptonite and his battlesuit
ra's: his outfit/cloak
parasite: there was a green one (this one is kind of weak)
joker: hair/shirt

[The Dude]

The answer revealed:

Luthor-Parasite-Joker-Ra's A Ghul

They have all fought Spider-man. The first two in the Spider-man/Superman one-shots in the 1970s and the second two in the two Spider-man/Batman one-shots in the 1990s. I believe they are the only four DC villains to ever meet Spidey since it was Reilly in the spider-suit for the DC marvel limited series.

So if thats the theme....whats the next set 

[breadmaster]

that's a tricky one...never would have got that

still waiting on bbh's theme

here's a couple for the meantime

simpler:

black cat
magneto
storm
silver sable

tougher:

flash
spider-man
nightwing
two-face

[Demacus]

Breadmaster
Simpler - All have white hair.
Tougher - Still working that one out.

[gameplan.exe]

flash
spider-man
nightwing
two-face

All should've been better in OP!!

[breadmaster]

perhaps, but that's not what i'm going for

flash is still pretty dang good, despite the max6 thing

also, whities is correct

[gameplan.exe]

lol @ "whities"! Also, I know in OP Flash is actually pretty... well, flash 

What about: they all had lots of "others"?
Flash: Jay Garrick, Bart Allen, and Wally West
Spider-Man: Peter Parker, Ben Reilly, Miguel O'Hara
Nightwing: Clark Kent, Van-Zee, Dick Grayson, Jason Todd
Two-Face:

[breadmaster]

flash
spider-man
nightwing
two-face

here's a hint: it's about the characters in other media

[Jesse]

So I'm going to guess that I'm not the only one having difficulties with this one
