I'm happy everyone's discussing stuff and chatting about characters but here's the basics of how power level works in this game. The plot will influence your strength, and the strength of certain villains. Sometimes you'll be toned up/down and so will the villains. It's something often looked down on but I feel like it's basically an inevitable part of a comic-based world. While I'm not going to cause, say, Killer Croc to beat Superman down, he might be able to tangle with him for a little and be more of an issue than he should be on paper. Also as for in-league 'Who's strongest' in this universe everyone's got specialities and in their own ways equally valuable to the team. IE everyone could probably beat everyone else at their niche but lose to someone else at the other's niche. Not that the game's at all going to involve any PvP aside from friendly sparring.<br/><br/>Also if nobody picks up Aquaman he'll be around as an NPC played up as basically the god of the ocean who's regal but almost alien to humans in that he lacks some of their culture and politeness and can be a bit barbaric. He'll be very hard to deal with/work with and very strong.
