So!
Diego and I are chatting away. 'Rex Caliber is our Ben Grimm, The Thing.' We've long thought that Ravager is NAPW's Batman.
So! What are the comic book character analogs for NAPW wrestlers?

One of the big influences on the Delivery Men was actually the Green Lantern Corps.

D! - used to be spider-man, but lately... I'm not so sure. Maybe Spider-Man during the really bad "brooding Spidey" era in the mid-nineties.
Static - Having just re-read "Dark Knight Strikes Again"... and realizing it's utter shite... that said, I'd suggest Static = (BLEEP)ed up Dick Grayson homicidal killer. Or perhaps to a certain extent the rebirthed Jason Todd/Red Hood. Definitely a screwed up Batman villain for sure.
Ravager - I disagree with the Batman analog given the past couple weeks. Garth Ennis' Hitman or Punisher is a pretty obvious fit, or maybe the Green Arrow villain Onomatopeia.
Damn, I should have more...brain's not working.

I was going to say that Bruce & Kyle were kind of like Blue Beetle & Booster Gold, but now that I think of it, Kyle might be more similar to a Guy Gardner type.
The only other I came up with: J.C. Cook = Speedball.

I ALMOST SEE If anybody was equal to Rorshach, it'd be Patrick Bickle. Not exactly the same mind you...but Rorshach is such a brilliant character.

Stein as... one o' them smart versions of Solomon Grundy? I don't know. The Seven Soldiers Frankenstein written by Grant Morrison would be a pretty good choice, if the obvious one. Also, if I'm Guy Gardner, I'm sure Dev would love me forever if I compared him to Kilowog. Although I do like the comparison to Booster and Beetle in terms of their partnership.
