I rewatched the Incredibles 1 and when I saw Dash running through an insect swarm I immediately had to think about Taylor. How do you think the Incredibles would do up against either the Undersiders, the Wards, the Travelers, the Protectorate or the S9 in a fight?
Not incredibly.
By Worm standards, the Incredibles all have really basic powers, except for Jack-Jack, who is a baby and more often a liability than an asset despite his 17 or so different powers. I think Taylor alone could take most of them out without too much trouble. She might have some trouble with Dash, but it wouldn’t be her first time fighting a speedster.
In fact, apart from Jack-Jack, Helen is the only one with a main power Taylor hasn’t already been up against in some form. I suppose Violet also has her invisibility, but that’s nearly useless against Taylor if you’re not Mannequin.
Add to all this that three out of the five are quite inexperienced as fighters (and Bob tends towards pretty straightforward moves), and suddenly the Incredibles don’t seem all that incredible when pitted up against Worm capes.
Admittedly, Helen does show Worm-like creativity with her power from time to time, so there’s that. I definitely think she’s the biggest threat to any Wormverse opponents, though Jack-Jack’s wildcard behavior could also be a spanner in the works for the careful planning some of them are fond of.
