Hey wasn't there a New Mutant in the 80's whose power was the ability to instantly understand, translate, and speak any language? Cause he gets my vote.

It's a useful up skill, don't get me wrong, but you're not going to win any fights with it.

He talked a dude's power armor into killing him
 
Batman. Like sit down, dude. We got a guy who can conjur up anything he can imagine. Another guy who hack into any system. Another guy who can turn into anyone and is one of the most powerful beings on Earth. Another guy who rules 75% of the planet with an army of total ass kickers behind him along with any sea creature. Another guy who is basically a god with every useful superpower you can think of that the Martian doesn't possess. A woman who is a half god that leads an army of total asskickers. And one last guy who can move so fast he can time travel.

You are not needed, Batman.

A very early Justice League comic in the New 52 lampshades this pretty well. The League has only recently been formed and Green Arrow keeps trying to get on. Green Lantern (Hal Jordan), tells him they don't need him, as they've already got a guy who 'doesn't do anything'.

Haha, yea I remember that.

Who do you think built the giant satellite?

Not that it's ethical exactly but Cyborg could provide money and no one would ever know where it went. Also, Cyborg is a super computer so he's smarter than Batman. Superman is smarter. Barry isn't a slouch either. Wonder Woman is battle experienced and negates the need for Batman's field capabilities. The League would be just fine.

Who do you think built the giant satellite?

Cyborg, Superman and Manhunter could pull that off. It's not like Batman made it himself with no help.
 
The dairy control guy from the X-men parody in the 90's garfield cartoon, he even says that while humanity fear all other mutants for their powers, they laugh at him for it.

Grandmaster, a dude that devoted billions of years to mastering games. Got sent to the shadowzone by Hawkeye carny skills
There's my Clint
On top of that-- when comics all revolve around fighting, it's a lame power. But when comics are better written, it's an awesome power.
He learns how to read body language at one point and actually becomes a broke-ass hand-to-hand fighter.
Jubilee is actually an omega-level mutant. She is garbage in the cartoon but in the comics she can pretty much combust matter at will.

Was an omega level she lost her powers, then she started fucking with pym particles, then became a vampire
Was she Omega? I knew she was high up there, but I don't remember if she was technically classified as Omeaga.

Also vampire momma Jubilee made me like Jubilee. I rescind my dislike of her.
 
Angel from the X-Men

Has the power of... Flight.
On the X-Men... a damn team full of flyers... who can shoot rays, punch a tank, remove your brain with TK, scream at supersonic level, etc, etc, etc.

Later they added some dumb Healing Blood nonsense.

Archangel was cool, but Angel sucks so much.
