Falling in line behind planetalyx, prillalar, and kormantic:

Create-Your-Own League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
1. Choose five to seven characters
2. They may be from books, movies, comics, TV shows, games, and real life--no traditional superheroes, though
3. They may be from any place on the space-time continuum, and any plane of existence--characters do not need to exist within the same era and country as in the original
4. You must identify the recruiter, the leader, and the villain, and there must be at least one female
5. Optional: You may identify their primary means of transport (like Nemo's Nautilus)

So may I present: The League of Middle-Aged Secondary Characters Who Are Sick and Tired of Standing in the Background Being the Hero's Boss/Mentor/Yenta/Nemesis While All the Pretty Young People Have All the Sexy Fun, and Who Want Their Own Show, Dammit:

the Recruiter: Madeleine (LFN)
the Villain: Cigarette-Smoking Man
the Leader: Rupert Giles
the Team: Joe Dawson (HL), Al Giardello (Homicide), Harding Welsh (dS), Walter Skinner
the Vehicle: '57 Studebaker Golden Hawk. Cherry, baby.

I love your version of XLG - perfection indeed! and the vehicle is superb; it's just loveliness taken to the nth degree

Mmm, yes; my parents had a gorgeous seafoam-green Studebaker, when I was very small, and it lives on in my head as a sort of Platonic Ideal of cars.

VROOOOMMM!!!!
