#6 - The Chainsmokers Created by: Snake

A primarily Vertigo-centric (with a few guests) team featuring cynical smokers who battle the dark side of the DC Universe that is if they're not battling each first.

- Mr. Bones (leader)
- John Constantine
- Jesse Custer
- Bigby Wolf
- Spider Jerusalem
- Jonah Hex
- Tommy Monaghan

I'm reading comics of old,
Looking for teams to make,
Like ones with Booster Gold,
Hawkeye or even Quake.
Spider-Man's overused,
And Deadpool seems half-baked,
And clearly I don't see what makes those groups so great.
But Snake said, Try Vertigo,
It's often overlooked,
And it's characters from series
Often end up underbooked.
Not superheroes,
No fairy tale bliss,
Just some dudes who might smoke up,
Wear trenchcoats and look pissed.
I want some team just like this.

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo,
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo,
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo,
Oh, I want some team just like this.
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo,
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo,
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo,
Oh, I want some team just like this.

Now I'm reading Vertigo,
The Fables and Endless,
The Ennis tales told,
And the works of Ellis.
And it seems Mr. Bones
Could lead all these misfits,
But one member does not create a surefire hit.
Snake said, Let's talk membership
'Cause Scarlet you seemed vexed,
You're looking for someone gruff and tough,
A cowboy, Jonah Hex!
A suave Hellblazer,
With John you cannot miss.
Spider Jerusalem works,
His gun gives people the shits.
I want some team just like this.

Add Jesse Custer,
And a wolf named Bigby,
I think that they'd fit in well
And have some innate chemistry.
Add an anti-hero,
One most people dismiss.
Throw in Tommy Monaghan
To finish off our list.
Oh, I want some team just like this.
