8. The Old Man (Kingdom Come)
Superman is Superman, no matter how old.
After losing his wife and family to an attack by the Joker, and watching a new, more violent hero execute the villain to great public acclaim, Superman retired to the Fortress of Solitude. But the world still needed him. When a group of upstart heroes screwed up in a big, bad way and wound up nuking Kansas, Clark re-emerged and led a team of heroes old and new in setting the world right again.
Team Role: The Leader.
Kingdom Come is a good pick for the man back at the base. He’s been around for a long time, and has led heroes into all manner of insane scenarios. Plus, thanks to Geoff Johns and Dale Eaglesham’s JSA run, he has experience dealing with alternate realities. He can lead, fight, do what needs doing to save the day. But he is on the older side, so having a younger field leader would be a smart move.
