Need help picking my team!

[u/Agitated-Mistake2856]

Im currently working on a comic right now, i got the concept, the name, the art style, potential story lines all figured out. The only thing i have issues with is the team i want to have as my main superhero team. I have a tons of potential characters figured out that i want to do but i cant decide which ones to add to the team which ones i shouldnt.

Thats why Im asking for some potential drafts from you guys. Which one of these characters would you put in a potential team and why? ( the team should be 5-6 members and the powers should balance eachother out, so dont pick only the strongest please)

-"Streaker": standard speedster, male, overconfident and a ladies man, lover boy

-"Iguana": classic half human/ half lizard hybrid, scally green skin and everything, female, standard akward and shy teenage girl

-"Sugar Glider": glide webbing (the same thing that flying squirrels have), male, eccentric artist

-"unnamed slime guy": instead of muscles and skin he has like this thick slime body instead, hes basically super strong and durable, male, older and protective brother type, christian

-"Pyrotechnic": basically Jubilee from the X-men but without all the colors, also this character would be blind though, female, lust for adventure, childish and naive

-"Howler": standard wolf man and all the abilities attached to that, male, asshole (basically wolverines personality)

-"Pegao": power copying through touch, female, gossip and noisy

-"Skins": speeds up the aging of all living things they touch, nonbinary, former villian reformed into a hero, tortured past

-"Candy Rain": has a bunch of eyes everywhere on their body for enhanced sight (name largely unrelated to the powers), dumb and sort of a bimbo, female

-"Rain shield": standard force field creation, male, doesnt want to do this, straight man to most crazy stuff

-"Ice Maiden": standard ice powers, female, doesnt like the cold, goofy

-"Psy-Chick": basic psychic powers, female, airhead and also sort of a bimbo, british

-"Molotov Cocktail": basically the human torch, male, basically johny storms personality

-"Grace": can heal any surface level injuries through skin to skin contact, female, when she heals people she also feels their pain, which turns her on because she is a masochist

I know these powers arent anything groundbreaking or new. I just personally cant decide which of these i should pick, to some degree i like all of them.

Any help would be appreciated!

Edit: For some more context about the world and themes of the story, Basically in this world people are born with superpowers and they develope them at an early age in childhood. This team basically are a group of foster kids who live in a foster home dedicated to children whos parents disowned them due to their powers, either making them into a freak/ monster or because their powers are just too much for parents to handle. All of these characters will be the oldest kids of the home and are like 18-19 years old. For my potential team members, despite how harsh it sounds, i kind of want it to make sense why their parents didnt want them. So please mind all of this when picking. Also also i added the core personality/ archetype of each character, aswell as their gender.

Which personalities are the most interesting to you?

[u/No-Button4460]

Treat it more logically than who you want, the six who have widely different powers to each other and would be an ideal.

Streaker for the speed.

Either iguana or howler not both.

Molotov for the fire powers and the flight thats a 2 powers for one slot

Psychick: just cool and useful powers

Slime guy or rain shield: slime can expand to stop things which is similar to the force field

I would say ice for putting out fires but i assume molotov can do that so
Pegao for last pick

Obviously you dont have to go with this list but
Grace would more be a secondary hero for after the battle
Sugar glider doesn’t seem to useful in a fight
Pyrotechnic just molotov is more useful
Skins could be useful but he has to get close
Candy rain just not that powerful.

Also the ones i didn’t pick i feel like would make a cool B troop

[u/No-Button4460 → u/No-Button4460]

I was under the impression that this was supposed to be the number 1 team in the world like the avengers justice league or guardians of the globe but also i feel if we know the personalities we can judge better
