DC Nation

[Friday]

Hmm, I'm not normally a DC kinda guy, but the idea of a Chinese sponsored super team intrigues me. I'm glad someone else is exploring the idea of other nations creating their own super heroes, ala the metahuman arms race in The Ultimates. But the idea of at least two of the members having the ability to simply spawn more copies does smack a little of racism. But what kind of super soldiers are we talking about that Mother of Champions spawns? They each have their own super power or they're just peak physical specimens like Captain America in 616? Curious to be sure.

DC's been doing stuff like that for decades in thier poli books like the old Suicide Squad

Guess the JLoA Line-Up!

Guess the JLoA Line-Up!

Damn Turner!!!! Damn him to hell!!! When will he stop doing covers and just do his own comic?!?!?!

I don't care if it's Bone!!!! Please...just put me outta my misery!!!!

 

[Ice]

Martian Manhunter
Green Lantern
Green Arrow
Captain Marvel
Hawkgirl

And I dont know the last ones.

 

[thee great one]

I don't see Marvel.

I don't think that is Hawkgirl but Hawkman.

I think Captain Atom is in the middle.

Not sure who the chicks are.

That is an awesome covers. I am going to love it when it shows them all in full glory.

 

[Ice]

I don't see Marvel.

It looks like its the one under Manhunter. And since he was talked about in the preview, just guessed him.

 

[Dr.Strangefate]

I think that's Red Tornado and not Martian Manhunter.

You can see the little tornado trail off...

Also: Im thinking that the Green Lantern will be Kyle, and the Green Arrow will be Connor Hawke

You're right.

I agree with Conner but I don't think it will be Kyle. He's Ion now.

It will be Hal.

I more hoping for Ollie cause it would be balanced better with Hawkman, Batman, and Hal with his history with them.

 

[ProjectX2]

Superman
Batman
Wonder Woman
Green Lantern
Green Arrow
Red Tornado
Hawkman/Hawkwoman
Captain Atom
Powergirl
Someone else.

I think Conner would be a good fit. It'd help avoid "Hey, Green Arrow has the exact same outdated facial hair as Mayor Queen!" incidents too.

Guess the JLoA Line-Up!

Superman
Batman
Wonder Woman
Green Arrow(maybe Arsenal)*
Green Lantern(Hal)**
Red Tornado***
Hawkgirl
Captain Atom/Marvel
Not a clue who the girls are though. Canary & Zatanna?

*I think the bow is a red herring, in silhouette you would still be able to make it out. This would explain Arsenal's absence & comments at the end of Outsiders pre-OYL.
**Kyle is Ion, wouldn't have a ring. Guy is in Corps. John is irrelevant, and usually has a tight haircut. You can see Jordan's hair.
***There's a tornado behind him, plus hes mentioned in the solicits.

 

[Ice]

I think I may end up getting JLA. It just looks so good. Still not sure.

 

[thee great one]

Oh it will.

Melzter and Benes are both amazing.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All Star perhaps?

And Seven Soldiers in October? That sucks.

 

[thee great one]

That's all some good new. Thanks doc.

 

[E]

All Star perhaps?

Hope so. That would be cool, although I'd rather get Green lantern and Flash first.

And Seven Soldiers in October? That sucks.

Hey at least we have a date.

That sounds about right to me, but Meltzer said in interview that Arsenal wouldn't be onboard, and Green Arrow was pretty much a sure thing.

Read the latest Wizard, he gives him better odds than Ollie of getting in.
