[QUOTE="Yaarel, post: 9051050, member: 58172"] Here is a sense of which Marvel superhero belongs to which D&D 5e level. The table uses the column (3) table from Post 16 and the official superhero stats from the Marvel Super Heroes cards in the Original Post. The ellipses "..." means that some of the heroes from the preceding lower level probably belong here in this gap. (Note, these official Marvel stats are from the 1980s. Some superheroes have leveled up since then, or variated. Some powers are more useful than others, so some rankings surprise. Nightcrawler has Shift X Teleport. Also I ignore material strengths and obscure powers like "invisibility to machines". In Super Heroes, powers that come from an item, such as the hammer of Thor and the armor of Iron Man, are part of the character build.) The range of these superheroes across these D&D tiers, looks moreorless right to me.
