I’ve been thinking about the line up I would like for MK vs DC. Behold, my MARVELlous roster;

Ashrah = Emma Frost
Baraka = Wolverine
Blaze = The Human Torch
Bo' Rai Cho = The Kingpin
Chameleon = The Silver Surfer
Cyrax = Iron-man
Daegon = Silver Samurai
Dairou = Bullseye
Darrius = Luke Cage
Drahmin = Iron Fist
Ermac = The Red Skull
Frost = Storm
Fujin = Thor
Goro = Doctor Octopus
Havik = Dr. Strange
Hotaru = The Green Goblin
Hsu Hao = Iron Monger
Jade = She-Hulk
Jarek = Gambit
Jax = Nick Fury
Johnny Cage = Captain America
Kabal = Cable
Kai = Black Panther
Kano – Cyclops
Kenshi = Daredevil
Khameleon = The Invisible Women
Kintaro = The Thing
Kira = Jubilee
Kitana = Electra
Kobra = Scorpion
Kung Lao = Nightcrawler
Li Mei = Jean Grey/Dark Phoenix
Liu Kang = Spiderman
Mavado = Mr Fantastic
Meat = Carnage
Mileena = Lady Deathstrike
Mokap = Northstar
Moloch = The Hulk
Motaro = The Juggernaut
Nightwolf = Warpath
Nitara = Blade
Noob Saibot = Venom
Onaga = Blackheart
Quan Chi = Mister Sinister
Raiden = Electro
Rain ·= Halkeye
Reiko = Magneto
Reptile = The Lizard
Sareena = Rogue
Scorpion = Ghostrider
Sektor = Deathlok
Shang Tsung = Mandarin
Shao Kahn = Dr Doom
Sheeva = Lady Octopus
Shinnok = Apocalypse
Shujinko = Stick
Sindel = Psylocke
Smoke = War Machine
Sonya = The Black Cat
Stryker = The Punisher
Sub-Zero = Iceman
Tanya = Silver Fox
Taven =Pyro

What? It’s a DC crossing over? Oh um... Scorpion and... Superman perhaps? They share a basic colour scheme? There powers are.... Simular? Yes, no?

Please post any suggestions for better Marvel vs MK combinations. Kung Lao was especilly hard to pick.

okay, well i don't agree with about half of your pairings (Havik=Dr. Strange?) but your point is well taken.

And yes, Superman and Scorpion have NOTHING in common.

Well, I'm not sure if you parallelling characters based on power, personality, or position, but IMO, some of those matches don't add up. What do Red Skull and Ermac have in common? I don't disagree so much with Smoke/War Machine, since War Machine is distinguished by his relation to a more important character, plus the cybernetic comparison. But Subzero Iceman? No, other than ability, they are very different types. Iceman is a follower, while Subzero is at best a leader, at worst a loner.

I think Captain America would go better with Subzero; Li Mei would go better with Psylocke; Kabal with the Punisher (assuming MK3 storyline); Noob Saibot with Blackheart.

And Ermac? Definitely silver surfer: two adherents of dark forces switching alliances based on moral revelations.

You're Shinnock/Apocalypse seems right though. As does your Kahn/Dr. Doom.

Well, honestly I made connections the best I could. Some of the pairing worked really well but the rest I had to fit as best I can. There is not real order, some are power based, some are personality and costume. That's why i wanted feedback. smile

Yes, Ermac was a problem for me. Red Skull was just something that came to me cause Ermac has a orange/red mask. And yes, Silver Surfer is a much better match for him.

Lei Mai and Psylocke is also much better.

I also based Sub-Zero to Iceman purely on their powers. Ice vs Ice. Same with Striker and Punsher, no abilities but human based weapons. Oh, and Cage and Captain America was for a American culture reference.

I know. It’s just hypothetical fun because of all the speculation for the DC vs MK line-up.

it's supposed to be like that, can't you tell by the big cap letters that say MARVEL in the first part of the word MARVELlous?

Hmm, given the amount of games that Marvel characters have been appearing in in comparison to DC, I prefer a Marvel-less roster.

Well I think the reason they are paralelled characters
is because of the fact that both Superman and Scorpion are very much alone in the sence of they are both the last of their kind,
so that sounds like they have something in common.
