Likely the biggest nerd you'll ever meet, at least by volume. Yes, I remember that one guy you thought only you knew about. If you can see this: YOU ARE ENOUGH.

A member of the Team Titans from ten years in the future, Hero X (real name unrevealed) was sent back in time to defeat Lord Chaos, the sone of Donna Troy and Terry Long; this panel is pretty much the extent of his impact on anything before Zero Hour wiped him from existence. #TitansTogether
Originally a trio of kid sidekicks, the Teen Titans quickly became much more than boy wonders. Whether Teen Titans, New Teen Titans or their splinter groups, their rallying cry rings forth: #TitansTogether!

Today's Titan is not Gambit, not matter what it looks like.
It's that thing where you find an actress remarkably beautiful and eerily familiar, and then you realize that, 30 years ago, you had a crush on her mother.

And then, you crumble away into dust and stuff?
Tanya Spears seems to have gotten her powers from a exposure to The Bleed; superhumanly strong& durable, this Power Girl also has the ability to grow to titanic size, a healing factor & genius intellect.

After a long absence, she recently returned as a member of The Power Company. #TitansTogether

Today's Titan isn't THAT Power Girl, but was willed the name when the original returned to Earth-2.
Say what you will about the bedlamite called Madcap, when he commits to a fashion accessory for his endlessly regenerating body, he COMMITS.

SEE-OH-EMM-EYE-TEE! TEE! TEE! TEE!

†HÈ ÈLßÖW§ Ö£ RÈGÌñÄLÐ MÄÚÐLÌñG) DEADPOOL PURPLE - Speaking of regenerating, it's the dapper Deadpool Purple, who pairs his jumpsuit with a wide-brimmed hat worthy of a grandmother at the beach for a little extra oomph.
That's because the... Ummm.

I'll be generous and say "person."

The person called Shreck, AKA Terror, has inexplicable spines in his neck; hailing from Earth-88194, his body doesn't regenerate, but it will absorb the parts (and resulting skills) from the bodies of others.

He's... He's just gross.
∞ ) DEADPOOL VIOLET - The nihilistic anything-for-money side of the Main Merc with a Mouth comes through in Deadpool Violet, though he's quite a bit thicker than the real deal, and seems to have... gills?
Masacre's alias is actually an in-joke, as it is the name used at one point for the original Poolboy's adventures when presented in Spain.
𝙉𝙪𝙢𝙚𝙧𝙤 𝙏𝙧𝙚𝙨 ) MASACRE - A former priest, real name unrevealed, Masacre heard the confession of Wade Wilson, which caused his mind to snap, deciding that there could be no good in the world because of what he heard; one of the founding Mercs for Money, he left the team before color coordination.
That's because Greg "The Foolkiller" Salinger, who once traveled the streets of New York City disintegrating people who "lacked poetry in their soul"; Foolkiller has worked on his mental health, though, including earning a degree in psychology with the money he earned with the Mercs.
𝒮𝑜𝓃𝓃𝑒𝓉 #𝟙𝟠 ) DEADPOOL BLUE - Sharing the prime Deadpool's belief that "there is no kill like OVERKILL", Deadpool Blue provides the proverbial ultra-violence, as seen by his utilization of what's clearly an M134 helicopter minigun as a weapon.
That's because James "Solo" Bourne was, like Wade Wilson, a military standout who showed the sort of moral flexibility that made him a very effective killer; his experiences in the field shaped his costumed identity as an anti-terrorism vigilante.

His catchphrase: "While Solo lives, TERROR DIES!"
19) DEADPOOL GREEN - When not flipping the Christmas colors, Deadpool Green has the same combat prowess that makes the original, including the ability to switch from sword to gun and back at the drop of a hat.
It all makes sense when you discover that he is, in truth, Steve "Slapstick" Harmon, a young man accidentally transformed by alien science while dressed as as clown, turning him into a living cartoon.

He's become more and more psychotic over the years, which I attribute to distrust of clowns.
4) DEADPOOL YELLOW - Though definitely capturing the madness of Deadpool, Deadpool Yellow relies on his particular melee weapon, rather than machine guns or katanas.
The reason for the wings is that this particular 'Pool is Walter "Stingray" Newell, Sub-Mariner ally and Avenger, who actually created his exosuit for underwater exploration.

He CLAIMS that he just wanted to be an oceanographer, but the big red starburst chest emblem makes that feel disingenuous.
9) DEADPOOL ORANGE - Also known as "the Deadpool what could fly", Orange Deadpool is perhaps the easiest of the Mercs for Money to differentiate from their leader.
10) DEADPOOL - Though he's currently dead, Wade Wilson is a famed mercenary and world-class chaos goblin; though reports vary as to whether he's just mentally ill, a subtle genius or some combination of both, he's one of the most remarkable modern superhero success stories.
