Who would be in it? Let's say we need at least one character from each main type of character -- Knight, Barbarian, Wizard, etc. They're going on an epic quest to fight the new Sauron, who now has Wolverine's claws, a machine gun, and has been trained as a ninja. Also, he's BFFs with the Predator now. Basically, the ultimate threat times infinity.

Who gets in? Maybe these guys?

    Knight (main hero) -- King Arthur
    Wizard -- Gandalf
    Elf -- Link (Legend of Zelda)
    Dwarf -- Uh... I guess Thorin or Gimli, right?
    Rogue / Thief -- Conan
    Barbarian / Warrior -- Hercules
    Hobbit / Other Magical Race -- Uh... I guess Bilbo and Samwise, right?

Kind of a sausage party. I don't know, I don't really follow this stuff.

My list would have some overlap.

Conan (Barbarian/Thief, obviously)
Fafhrd (Barbarian)
Grey Mouser (Thief)
Jirel of Joiry (Fighter, she also breaks up the sausage party)
Elric (Wizard/Fighter)
Silver John (Bard)

I don't know any of those other fruity people, so I say a team of Conan, John Carter, Gandalf, Yoda, and Han Solo.
