It sounds like we saw two different WBK/PF parodies. I was talking about a Saturday Night Live sketch from 1994, when John Travolta was a guest host and Janeane Garofalo was a regular cast member. I'll have to look for the one you mention on YouTube.

This wasn't on SNL. Tho, I do recall a skit on SNL with Travolta. Ended with Lenny and Squiggy popping in at the end.
The one I'm talking about was the actual actors who played Horshack, Epstein and Boom Boom Washington. I don't know if you saw Pulp Fiction, but there's a scene in the car with with Horshack in the role Travolta had, Boom Boom doing the Sam Jackson role and Epstein doing the role of the guy in the back seat (Phil Lamar, of Mad Tv fame was in the actual movie). It's funny.

That's the SNL scene I'm talking about. I hadn't remember the Lenny & Squiggy bit (haven't seen it since it originally aired), but Michael McKean was a regular that season too.
JTR has it...Super-Adaptoid had the powers of Cap, GOliath, Wasp, and Hawkeye when he fought Iron Man in Iron Man #49.
I spite of the Heroclix sculpt, I'm not sure when if ever he copied Thor's powers, nor do I remember him ever having Quicksilver's, either.
You know, you'd be good on the DC triv thread right now. Different thread, different answer, but the same circumstances prevail.
And yes, the answer is Super Adaptoid. I sort of figured you'd get it first (and get it right).
The thread is yours once again, DiZo.
Try not to go mad with power and take over the world, because, one doesn't want to see what you'd do to Joephisto and probably to Dido.
In 1988, the Super-Adaptoid was part of an all-artificial lifeform/robot team called Heavy Metal...identify the five members of the group and the book titles in which they first appeared...issue numbers not required :-)

Lets see. There was Super Adaptoid (1st appeared in Avengers), Awesome Android (1st appeared in the FF book), The Kree Sentry #459 (1st appeared in the FF book), Tess-One (was a super soldier killer, so I'll guess 1st appearance in Captain America) and for awhile, Machine Man (who appeared in the originally non-continuty book "2001: A Space Odyssey").
They appeared altogether as a group in the Avengers.

Had you asked the name of the group, I'd of failed. I only recall the "New Enforcers" having the adaptoid on the team, but it wasn't the "Super" adaptoid.
And I'd fail if you'd asked for issue numbers.
