Squadron Supreme

The Squadron Supreme is a fictional superhero team that appears in comic books published by Marvel Comics. The Squadron Supreme first appeared in Avengers #85 - 86 (Feb. - Mar. 1971) and were created by Roy Thomas and John Buscema.

As with the supervillain team the Squadron Sinister, the core members of the Squadron Supreme — Hyperion, Nighthawk, Doctor Spectrum, and the Whizzer — were based on characters published by rival DC Comics.

The Squadron Supreme are first encountered by four members of the team the Avengers - the Vision; Quicksilver; the Scarlet Witch and Goliath - who have arrived in the Earth-712 universe by mistake. The Avengers are initially confused as several members of the Squadron Supreme have identical names and powers

to the Squadron Sinister, a group of previously encountered villains.
