How about FacePunch and Optimus Prime?

<Snipped quote by Byrd Man>

I personally am not a fan of bringing in Transformers and as such am voting against it.

Sorry, gotta stick up for Transformers here. There's no reason to keep them out of the game. Stylistically they fit with superheroes.

On a serious note, I agree with Wraith on this one. I don't think it's a stylistic issue, I just think they work a lot better when they're self-contained and even Marvel understood that when they owned the rights to them the first time around. I guess there's not really any other game that Prime could be played in around here so I'm more sympathetic towards it than I'd otherwise be. I just think the consequences of integrating them into a shared universe have larger ramifications for everyone than, say, integrating someone like Smiley. If the Transformers didn't end up sprawling over into everything I reckon I could probably hold my nose and deal with it though.

Gosh, woulda been nice to know when I first stated my interest and went on to write a CS the size of Texas. Good golly jee. I can see your point, I suppose. The franchise technically fit into the perameters established in the OP (A part of IDW/Marvel comics and not, say, a Manga) so I guessed that Optimus would fit into Maximum's canon.

Well, Gundam and Star Trek don't take place on a present day earth, so they're out. Don't see the problem with The Doctor eithed. I dunno. I don't see an argument, and they ARE an IDW comic which is a company called out in the first post

@Morden Man You're dating a mutant! That's so cool. Oh.. that was Ex-Girlfriend, not X-Girlfriend.

The Doctor is a key component to time travel or even Booster Gold. It doesn't seem so far fetched to have the Enterprise turn up in space, they just had a cross over with Green Lantern even. With the right CS all of your above points could apply to them as well.
