[OOC] The New Frontier: A Marvel/DC One Universe RP

[Sep]

Finally figured out the roadblock that was delaying my next Spider-Man post! Buuuuuuuuuut it's much too late to start it now, so it'll just have to keep another day.

@Eddie Brock

Was it Hawkeyes costume?

Guys! I know where Spideys getting his inspiration from to make a more unique costume now that Miles is around...

I got a few suggestions of my own...

[Byrd Man]

Also @Byrd Man I just noticed, Frank and Marc were both part of Special Operations in the Marines! Though I don't think they served together and they might not have been in the exact same type of unit. I just had 'served in the marines' in the backstory, but I was going light on details, canon Moon Knight was in a special forces branch, and the CIA doesn't recruit for SAD/SOG out of the ordinary marines anyways. Wonder if they'd bond over it if they ever met.

Then again given their opposing philosophies toward killing, they'd probably discuss it over a fist/knife fight rather than coffee or a beer...

@Dblade26

Marine bros! The rest of the group, save one, all have special forces backgrounds so maybe Spector was buddies with the whole damn team!

[Architect]

Whoa, didn't notice @Dblade26 was already fully into this. Now I'm extra excited.

@Byrd Man

That'd definitely make for an interesting dynamic between the characters! I'd be looking forward to any potential interactions between them even more in that case! It'd give things a lot more pathos if Moon Knight and The Punishers ever fight each other, too.

Lucky.

Banner is missing his numero uno Science Bro.

SURE there's Reed but he already has a monster, and Lex and Doom are like. Evil.

[Dblade26]

Clearly my second character should be Ted Kord so he and Bruce can have BWAH-HA-HA level adventures.

Good luck, Banner has very few BWAH-HA-HA moments.

In fact Tony when he finally hears Banner laugh is all like "Dafuq".

@Architect When are you going to stop riding the pine and get involved, you old dog?

@Morden Man

Yes!

Moar Vic- Willing test su-

Friends.

I mean friends.

[Dblade26]

BWAH-HA-HA is just Kord's laugh anyways. But yeah, Clearly he'd be enough of a not-a-dick to be friends with Banner. Plus he's very, very good at being Science-y and he's actually a character I really like! I can see him trying to cheer up a typically depressed Banner and refusing to abandon him no matter what because Ted's generally a nice guy.

@Dblade26

Ted for science bro 2016.

Move over Stark.

[Dblade26]

I actually really do like Ted Kord. He'd kind of be a polar opposite for Spector, another gadget-wielding hero with a silent flying airship and his own big company, but eternally optimistic, operating in the open and in daylight hours and with more science-based adventures rather than mystical ones, yet both with ties to bizarre ancient Egyptian artifacts funnily enough.

[Sep]

You and your egyptology.

[Dblade26]

I wonder where Ted would fit in terms of smart guy rankings in a shared universe...

@Dblade26

Pretty High.

The thing is it's hard to scale things as people are skilled in different fields. Banner for example in the Marvel Universe is the foremost expert in anything related to radiation or gamma energy. In terms of everything else it varies depending on the writing. Though at one point he called himself smarter than Stark as Stark "merely takes what he knows going forward" unlike Banner who tries to be innovative.

_{and puts the word Gamma on front of everything}

Would we do that to you? We offer naught but love and support.

@Dblade26

Yeah i know what you mean, managing such a list would be difficult now. Especially since there's already multiple interpretations of who's the smartest in each universe along. Characters like Amadeus Cho, who is canonically stated as being the 7th/8th smartest person on the planet would probably end up getting bunked to around 20 or something! I imagine Ted would be in the top 10, although barely now.
