Who's today's choice? 🙂

Day #887 - Saturday Spotlight on the Squadron Supreme! Archive Day #183

Various members were all over the place on various One A Day entries. Now they're all together.

To avoid this post going on and on, I only included more iconic costumes. Please add your favorite if I didn't.

Amphibian

Hyperion

Arcanna/Moonglow

Tom Thumb

Golden Archer/Black Archer

Lady Lark/Skylark

Nighthawk

Power Princess

Doctor Spectrum

Whizzer

Nuke

Skymax

Blue Eagle/American Eagle

Ape-X

Foxfire

Doctor Decibel

Shape

Mink

Quagmire

Lamprey

Redstone

Moonglow

Thermite

Haywire

Inertia

Remnant

Pinball

I want them all, especially Ape-X, Mink, Quagmire, and Lamprey. Ape-X could easily be a BAF, just use Bonebreaker's lower half. 😀

I'd probably get any of them so long as they were released together in eras.

YES!  Bring on all the Squadron! I’ll add:

Deep Sea Amphibian

Golden Armor Power Princess

I’ll also add (but spare the images for space)

Master Menace,  Scarlet Centurion,  Professor Imam,  Rustler,  Bullox,  Iron Moth,  Huckster, Robotic Tom Thumb, Brain Child

Yeah, I would absolutely pick up any of the Squadron that gets made. It's cool that they released the modern 5-person squad so quickly, but it's only heightened my desire to get the classic 80s team. I'd love to get Power Princess in that purple armor to go with the Exiles too.

I am fully 100% in on the Squadron, preferably in their maxi-series looks. I’ll also accept their Busiek/Perez-era costumes. 

I’d pass on any of the Supreme Power looks, as well as the not-the-real-Squadron alternate Earth members from later. 

Basically I want the Gruenwald Squadron. 

Love Squadron Supreme. I’d buy most of them, but in particular:

Hyperion— black & gold Avengers costume; bald King Hyperion

Nighthawk— all the costumes 

Nuke— especially the armored silver suit 

Power Princess in the purple suit with the helmet 

Thermite— always loved that suit

Lamprey

Redstone 

Dr. Spectrum— it’s greedy to ask for this, but I want a figure of him on another body like Vulcan. 

There are a lot of choices there to further flesh out the Squadron Supreme.   Most of them would probably be a good choice depending on the costume/look.

I’ve only read the Supreme Power version of this team, by Straczynski and Gary Frank. I’d like versions of them, but they are a very low priority.

If you’re interested the TPB of the original 12 issue maxi-series is available at reasonable prices.

It’s a pretty decent read.  A precursor to a lot of later comic stories.  You can the seeds that influenced stories like Kingdom Come, and Watchmen.  

Day #888 - Haechi, plus Killraven (Archive Day #209b)

I'd get both. 🙂

I wouldn't mind some more Squadron Supreme.  I'd prefer them in their classic looks.  Especially Golden Archer, Nighthawk, Whizzer, and Power Princess.

Pass on both Haechi and Killraven.

Haechi is unfamiliar to me.  I’d likely pass on the character and hold out for Woodgod, who his design reminds me of.

Killraven is a bit of a pickle.  I’m very tempted to say ‘yes’, but I’m afraid that he’d end up being a ‘one and done’ character, getting no one else from his era.  To sell me, Hasbro would have to do a good representation from his era, even if it was done in, say, a five pack.  Include allies and enemies, and I’d be all in.
