Nowadays, pretty much all mutants are on the same side (more or less) making a home on the sovereign mutant island nation of Krakoa including most of the Brotherhood members over the years, right down to Magneto himself. Other notable mutants that have joined their cause include Mastermind, Blob, Sauron, Black Tom Cassidy, Avalanche, Sabretooth, Pyro, and even the reformed villains – and classic Avengers – Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver. Originally founded by Magneto, the Brotherhood has been led by Mystique, Exodus, and even Magneto's lackey (and most recently Jean Grey School janitor) Toad. The Brotherhood has often attempted to save mutantkind by eliminating or subjugating humanity, rather than attempting to peacefully co-exist. The similarities end when you consider their methods. Both are groups of mutants united behind a visionary leader, with the intent of preserving the mutant race. In many ways, the Brotherhood is very similar to their classic enemies, the X-Men.
#Pc heroes v vilain clan movie
The team is getting a new movie in the summer of 2021 as well titled simply The Suicide Squad, directed by James Gunn of Guardians of the Galaxy fame. In contemporary DC comics the Squad has revolved around Harley Quinn, Deadshot, King Shark, El Diablo, Captain Boomerang, Parasite, and the Cheetah, among many others. Dozens of other villains, some B-Listers, some more prominent, came and went in this incarnation, with the team's formula usually remaining largely the same. Over the years, the Squad's membership has fluctuated wildly – largely thanks to many of its members being expendable – but in its early years, it had mainstays such as Captain Boomerang, Count Vertigo, Deadshot, Bronze Tiger, Enchantress, Blockbuster, and even the Joker. Corralled by Waller's force of will and usually lethal devices that keep them in line, the Squad doesn't exactly reform villains as much as it points them in a more favorable direction. The Frightful FourĪmanda Waller and Rick Flag's Task Force X, nicknamed the "Suicide Squad," is a government team that brings together some of DC's worst super-criminals to take on missions too dangerous for normal operatives in exchange for their freedom – if they survive. The Society has had several other splinter groups associated with it, including the Serpent Squad, and the Serpent Syndicate. Numerous serpents have come and gone from the society over the years, but members such as the mutated King Cobra, the deadly Black Mamba, the cybernetic Bushmaster, the size-changing Puff Adder, and the powerful Anaconda remain core members of the group.įormer members that have gone on to notable careers on both sides of the hero/villain spectrum include Viper, Sidewinder, Princess Python, and Diamondback. The members of the Serpent Society all possess identities based on different snakes, and their powers (sometimes loosely) correspond to those identities. Though they are primarily enemies of Captain America, the Serpent Society has gone up against foes like the Avengers, Spider-Man, Daredevil, and numerous others. Unlike many of the teams on this list, the members of The Serpent Society rarely operate on their own, preferring instead to overwhelm their heroic nemeses with sheer numbers.
