What would your 20 character roster for a hypothetical Warner Brothers. platform fighting game?

[Sestetz]

General discussion about supposed roster, and dlc for a fake (or real) leak for a Neatherealm platform fighting game. Who would be your choices and why for representing the Warner Brothers brand! Can be any oddball pick from anything Warner brothers related no matter how violent. I think discussion for movesets would also be fun, I'd pretend it'd be the same as the smash movesets.

Here was my original mock up for a best of roster.

Gotta have the big three from DC, and the two other popular and marketable characters.
Shaggy is a giant meme, it was even acknowledged in the MortalKombat movie.


A couple more of the most giant franchises of all time. Lord of the rings, Indiana Jones, and Harry Potter. Also John Wick for the new blood. Idk it was fun thinking of this roster, wrack your brains and represent warner.

I googled what WB owned for this post and like I knew they owned a lot of properties but holy crap...

John Wick, Indiana Jones, and Edward Scissorhands (I believe that's who's in bottom left corner?) are not WB.

Former's Lionsgate, latter two Disney (Indy via Lucasfilm, Scissorhands via Fox)

I don't think they own Jason either, but I'm not quite sure on that. Friday the 13th's rights are an extremely complicated web.

Okay, I feel like there's two main routes you can go here: A roster focused more on representing a few franchises or a roster focused on just jamming as many IPs into the game as possible... I'm going to pitch the latter and will try to split live-action and cartoon reps about 50/50...

1. Fred Flintstone (The Flinstones)
2. Shaggy Rogers (Scooby Doo)
3. Tom and Jerry (Tom and Jerry)
4. Bugs Bunny (The Looney Tunes)
5. Yakko (Animaniacs)
6. Ruby Rose (RWBY)
7. Johnny Bravo (Johnny Bravo)
8. Finn the Human (Adventure Time)
9. Pearl (Steven Universe)
10. Rick Sanchez (Rick & Morty)
11. Batman (Batman)
12. Wonder Woman (Wonder Woman)
13. Mad Max (Mad Max)
14. Gandalf (The Lord of the Rings)
15. Austin Powers (Austin Powers)
16. Neo (The Matrix)
17. Pennywise the Dancing Clown (It)
18. Arya Stark (Game of Thrones)
19. Betelgeuse (Beetlejuice)
20. The Wicked Witch of the West (The Wizard of Oz)

I think that... mostly works? There's a lot of Warner Bros characters I care about more then the ones on there, but when you're trying to summarize one of the largest media conglomerates in the world into 20 reps... Well, it is a challenge to say the least.

2. Batman (DC)
3. Superman (DC)
4. Wonder Woman (DC)
5. Scorpion (Mortal Kombat)
6. Wicked Witch of the West (The Wizard of Oz)
7. Mad Max (Mad Max)
8. Freddy Krueger (A Nightmare on Elm Street)
9. Stripe (Gremlins)
10. Betelgeuse (Beetlejuice)
11. Dr. Evil (Austin Powers)
12. Neo (The Matrix)
13. Gandalf (Lord of the Rings)
14. Tom & Jerry (Tom & Jerry)
15. Fred Flintstone (The Flintstones)
16. Shaggy (Scooby-Doo)
17. Lion-O (Thundercats)
18. Johnny Bravo (Johnny Bravo)
19. Rick Sanchez (Rick and Morty)
20. Daenerys Targaryen (Game of Thrones)

Honorable mentions (AKA DLC first dibs): Willy Wonka, Pennywise, Wacko Warner, Powerpuff Girls, Finn and Jake, Ruby Rose,
