The Duke Avengers
A few weeks ago, I was discussing who the Duke team is alike to. Being a partial nerd (as many of us are), we brought up the Marvel Avengers. Reading Dana O'Neil's article, everyone on the team has a role, just like the Avengers! Furthermore, while each of the Avengers by themselves are unique and amazing characters, their true potential is only realized when they are on a team. When everyone is buying into the team concept, the team functions at its best.
Anywho, below is what I believe each player is like:
Captain America - Quinn Cook: Captain America (Captain Cook?) is the spirit of the team. He has a ton of energy and is the emotional heart of the team. Furthermore, everyone looks to Captain America to lead and call the shots.
Iron Man - Ryan Kelly: Iron Man has an incredible arsenal of weapons to defeat any opponent. Plus, he often pulls out a move where your response is "how the hell did he do that?" On the plus side, he is dating a beautiful lady.
Thor - Rasheed Sulaimon: Has the physical tools to defeat opponents in a variety of ways, including one-on-one. Has an uncanny ability to get up, giving the perception that he's flying. Has a brother (in our case, shared first name) who no one likes and always causes trouble.
Hawk Eye - Seth Curry: Absolutely lethal from long range, which is his preferred method. From short range, has the tactical ability to get by his opponent.
The Hulk - Mason Plumlee: Smash.
