If you're not up on the comics, here's a handy primer of which superhero teams are represented in MCOC. NOTE: I have restricted this to solely teams appearing in the mainstream 616 universe, I've also ignored the movie versions of comic characters - hence no Falcon, Ronin, Ant-Man or Wasp.
Second Note: I've gone with the most notable teams and largely stuck to the first time someone joined a team and limited myself to the X-Men in general, rather than breaking it down into Blue, Gold, Red, X-Treme etc. subteams. I've also skipped most of the Dawn of X teams.
Fantastic 4
The Fantastic 4 debuted in Fantastic 4 #1 in 1961. The first four members of the group are the most famous: Mr Fantastic, Human Torch, Invisible Woman and The Thing. They’re not the only members, however. Medusa of the Inhumans joined in 1973’s Fantastic Four #132, replacing Sue when she and Reed were having marital difficulties. Medusa remained on the team until 1975’s Fantastic Four #159. The next new member of the Four was Luke Cage in 1976’s Fantastic Four #168, when he became a temporary substitute member to replace Thing who had lost his powers. Cage’s time on the team was short, he left the team in #170 after spending #169 under the control of Puppet Master. She-Hulk joined the team in 1985’s Secret Wars #12, as Thing left the team to remain on the mysterious Battleworld. She-Hulk’s tenure ended in 1987’s Fantastic Four #300. In 1990’s Fantastic Four #347, Spider-Man, Ghost Rider, Wolverine and the Hulk were manipulated into believing the original F4 had died and replaced them as a ‘New’ Fantastic 4. This team lasted until 1991’s #349. In 2007, after the events of the Civil War event, Reed and Sue left the team in #544. They’re replaced by Black Panther and Storm. The pair left in #550 the same year, with Reed and Sue rejoining. In 2011’s Fantastic Four #587, Torch was apparently killed. Two issues later, the team disbanded and the title was relaunched as Future Foundation, with Thing, Mr Fantastic, Invisible Woman and Spider-Man. The Four reformed for 2012’s Fantastic Four #600, with Spider-Man leaving the team in #605. The most recent member of the Fantastic Four is Iceman, revealed in 2020’s Fantastic Four vol 6 #24 to have been a member during the early days of the team when Torch angrily quit the team at the same time Iceman had angrily left the X-Men. This retcon chronologically places Iceman as the first substitute member.

Excellent write up!
and when I had to do an oral presentation for GCSE English, I did it on the starships Enterprise from Star Trek, back in the Olden days when there were only 5 and the B had never even appeared!
