Wrong. Without a doubt one of the worst units of heroes in the Marvel Universe, The Great Lakes Avengers (aka The Great Lakes Initiative, Great Lakes X-Men) have been underachieving in the pages of Marvel since 1989. But unlike the Super-Pets, appearances by the GLA have always been tongue-in-cheek. Consisting of such incredibly useless super-powered heroes as Flatman (who literally just goes flat), Big Bertha (a female Blob who, by the way, alongside Toad almost got The Brotherhood on this list) and Doorman (who can teleport anyone to the room adjacent to where they are standing), the GLA are the proverbial jabronies of the super-powered community of the Marvel Universe. This is a group that even Squirrel Girl ditched because they are losers. Squirrel Girl! The official team of the state of Wisconsin, the GLA have fortunately only really appeared a handful of times in Marvel comics, but every time they do bumbling stupidity is the order of the day. Though it must be said that Deadpool is a reserve member. As much as it may potentially help with their cred, it doesnt save them from being the worst the Marvel U has to offer. But, surprisingly, the assembly of the GLA is not the worst team-up that the pages of Marvel has ever brought to pass.
