Stephen King Superteam

Okay, is it just me or would a comic starring Johnny Smith, Carrie White, the kid from the Shining, and Drew Barrymore's character from Firestarter as a League of Extraordinary Gentleman by way of X-Men style superteam be awesome?

Yes, that would be awesome. Ridiculously awesome.

And once that idea was planted in my head, naturally, being the Kingphile that I am, my brain took it and ran with it. Not so much a team in the style of the X-Men or the Avengers, mind you, but something more in line with the Exiles. To me, the idea of an Exiles-like superteam makes perfect sense in the King multiverse. After all, that was kind of the point of the Dark Tower books: A small band of unlikely heroes on an epic quest across alternative universes, trying to preserve the balance between worlds and prevent the multiverse from tearing itself apart in a chaotic storm of catastrophic paradoxes. So I can very easily imagine a scenario where The Timebroker The Turtle plucks various King characters out of their own worlds (thereby possibly rescuing them from the horrible fates that King's characters often meet), and conscripts them to join a team of dimension-hopping superheroes, charged with repairing the damage to various realities that the Crimson King and his crew like to inflict.

So if I could make up a superteam like that, who would I put on it?
