The rules for this one are simple: choose six villains and come up with a DC version of "The Sinister Six".
They must be villains. If they're anti-heroes who have a loose alliance with law enforcement, then let's keep away from that.
They can be ANY villain, though. A Superman villain, a Batman villain, etc.
Just ONE team, please, consisting of six characters. No comments akin to "I'd have a back-up team and here are my other six..."
And please nominate a leader for your "Sinister Six" even if they are only a titular one.
Go!
Here are mine:
Brainiac (Leader) Poison Ivy Rainbow Raider Doctor Double X Shockwave The Fadeaway Man
By the way, I only came across Shockwave once in an 80s issue of BLUE DEVIL. I haven't seen the character since, no idea if he was a one-off. But I loved the look of him. And his powers, too:
By the way, Rainbow Raider, Doctor Double X, Shockwave and Fadeaway Man are indulgent on my part. Some may not even know them (I haven't seen them featured in any modern tales, no idea if they are still used). But they gave me a lot of pleasure. I read a great Fadeaway Man tale where Hawkman and Batman took him on; there's a 60s Doctor Double X tale I love; and Rainbow Raider was always a favourite. I'd have liked to have seen more of Shockwave.
I should add the Brainiac I am thinking of is the post-CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS version that our host worked on.
Can Mr Byrne please write and draw a tale featuring my choices?
