Icons
Well, that finishes Sewer Kings and Flying Solo.
Took a little longer than I thought because I started and then discovered I hadn't actually played the last part of Sewer Kings.
Interleaving the published adventures is not a terrible idea, but it would be easier if they were played in order. Two adventures that require bits of information to be scattered in several earlier session would be ideal for this kind of treatment. When I look over my set of adventures and groups, some clearly match and some don't.
(I have more adventures than this, but this is the list I could come up with on a moment's notice while I'm waiting for dinner to cook, and I'm omitting adventures I've run, either solo or with players. For instance, I have the Improbable Tales compilations, but I'd have to extract the adventure names from the compilations.) A ? under Group means that I don't remember the adventure well enough to judge a suitable cast.
In general, Uncanny Justice handles adventures that are overtly occult. League One handles adventures that are national or international in scope. Next Flight handles city-level adventures. There can be exceptions, and sometimes it's just neat to mix things up. Certainly there are lots of things that look occult but, in a superhero universe, are high tech or other-dimensional.

The Heroic Moments from Purple Duck are meant to be scenes or bits you include, so it's tough to say which character group will get them. However, I could happily include SEPULCHRE in the world.
Here's a better list of the rest, though I probably have the publisher wrong on a quarter of them. Looking at them, I'm going to delete most of the DC Heroes ones. There's also a certain amount of similarity between some so they either require a different group of characters or will get skipped.
