To clarify, I'm not asking for a full list of all the characters in Prime Earth. I'm compiling a list of heroes and villains for matchup purposes. I'm wondering which characters I should include that are in the current continuity, as in Watchmen, Post Zero Hour and Prime Earth. Am I missing any universes that have integrated into Prime Earth?

Ace the Bat-Hound would immediately sell me on this movie.
V for Vendetta is my favorite film, period. A perfect warning of the dangers of fascism. Of these, I personally liked Superman, the humor and the message felt real among a sea of soulless blockbusters.

In my opinion, Roy is a complex character. The addiction, the violence, the fatherhood, it all makes him compelling in a way I can't articulate. He has layers to him, and I like layers in my fiction.
I'm inclined to believe that Raven, while not as physically strong, is the most powerful among the group. Conner is a close second, Kori is a close third, and Gar, while still wildly powerful, is the weak link.
It's hard to quantify and categorize evil, but Comedian is among the upper echelon. He has canonically done unspeakable things because his power was unchecked and unquestioned. Catwoman is easily the least evil among this list.
I'm cool with almost anything as long as it's not the DCU and the MCU. Admittedly some part of me is excited at the prospect but it would likely be a Frankenstein's monster of a movie, with gratuitous cameos and/or fan service but not much else.
Not a popular opinion, but I am a fan of Jane Doe. The idea of someone struggling to find happiness and trying to do so by killing people and replacing them is chilling, and that makes her one of my favorite Batman villains, period.
Tee-hee silly murder guy
Giving an honest, serious answer, I'd say The Joker, to use Jungian psychology terms, is possessed by his shadow. In essence, his id controls his ego rather than his ego controlling his id, causing him to do literally whatever he wants to. Joker can exert some level of self-control, he's not feral, but he still exhibits the urge to kill.
In layman's terms, he's unaffected by any moral compass he might have had.
I remember watching reruns of the original Teen Titans series, age seven, sat in my cousin's bedroom with him. It was a Thanksgiving tradition by that point, while the men watched football, we watched Teen Titans. Aside from the killer theme song, the show was addicting and I started watching it at home through my cable provider. Yes, I'm old enough to have watched cable. That aside, my dad pulled me aside when I turned nine and said, "Son, there's something you need to see." He got out a VCR tape, selected Episode Three from the menu and on came Heart of Ice. I vividly remember being bored throughout the episode. That obviously changed when I got older.
When I gradually moved on from the animated series, I was about twelve. At that time, Man of Steel was released. I patiently waited for Batman vs. Superman, then for Suicide Squad, and so on. It was definitely hit or miss, but such is the art of cinema.
My first comic was actually DC Universe Presents Vol 1 9. It was a fun and brief introduction to the characters of Vandal and Kassidy Savage.
Mister Zsasz is up there, maybe in the top 5, in my opinion.
I'm going to say Anglette because that's the most obscure character I know.
Probably a nickel per comic, which is like 6 dollars or something. I don't have any comics of noteworthy value.

My chances fall between 70 and 80 percent. I've got a Kryptonian, a cowboy, a campy crime fighter, and a sonic supervillain fighting off a bunch of mindless machines. I've got a technomagician interfacing with and defusing the bomb. I've got a man of 118 elements and a psychic alien protecting the technomagician. I'd say I'm good.
I'd have to say Prometheus. The perfect antithesis to Batman.

Can we take a moment to appreciate how phenominally screwed I am?
