Quote: Dave said: I wasn't so much looking at the mythological elements of the team (there are enough Greek demons and evil gods for them to fight without having to force the team into the mould), as sticking WW in a team book.
I know you're looking more at the marketing side of it, but I disagree that the team would have to be "forced into the mould" -- the mythological elements are most definitely already present. Even moreso when you think of the enemies of the Outsiders: The New Olympians which fought them during the 1984 Olympics are a prime example, but the Masters of Disaster play upon the classical elements as well, and even the People's Heroes have "modern" mythic characters based on Western stereotypes of Russia.
