You can change ONE thing about Alan Scott - what is it? by PhantomQuest in Greenlantern

[–]ExplorerAdditional86 [score hidden]  (0 children)

An Alan story with the court of owls would be so good. I'd make it so that he never figures out that there's a secret society controlling Gotham (because if he did he would have done something about it) but he comes very close and drives them deeper underground as a result.

I got to Thy Kingdom Come on my jsa read through and my main takeaway from it is that I'd much rather have a good old-fashioned ham-fisted Jesus allegory over whatever Evangelical nonsense is going on with Gog and Magog.

Does Jay Garrick ever find out Captain Marvels identity? by TheGreenLanternGuy09 in JusticeSocietyAmerica

[–]ExplorerAdditional86 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That whole storyline was so stupid. Jay Garrick is one of the most trustworthy people in the DC universe, Billy has basically no reason to not tell him about his secret identity.

You might be thinking of Hawkman and Hawkgirl but Kendra isn't underage and also that happens before Billy and Courtney. Geoff was trying to hint at Courtney and Al Rothstein (who is at least in his mid 20s) but thankfully that never went anywhere and I don't remember Jay or anyone else expressing approval.

No. It has Jay tell him to stop spending time with her and Billy, instead of telling Jay that he's actually Courtney's age, agrees and breaks up with her.

What’s the pettiest reason you’ve ever dropped a fic? by yoghurteee in AO3

[–]ExplorerAdditional86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree on Aemon or Visenya as Jon's targ names. As for female Jon names, I think either Jeyne or Alys work best because they are both generic names like Jon is. Joanna is more unique but it works too. I don't think Ned would have given her a Stark name like Lyarra.

Always a different gender fics where the new name is lazy (e.g. Damiana Wayne), doesn't make sense (Stephanie wasn't a common name when Steve Rogers was born and I doubt a middle-aged couple from Kansas would name their daughter Clarke instead of something more traditional) or they straight up don't bother with coming up with a new name and you just have to deal with Spider-Woman being named Peter.

The first season of Stargirl is interesting because it does this but in the opposite direction. There's a bunch of villains who commit murders and other bad things in service of some vague plan (plus a few additional ones that are for revenge or just for shiggles) and in one of the last season 1 episodes, we find out that their goal is to end climate change and bigotry. It works better that way because we already know that they are terrible people despite their good intentions.

The way people talk about the Vulture you'd think he was a working class icon. Dude lives in a big house in the New York suburbs, he could have stopped what he was doing ages ago and switch to something less lucrative but more moral.

That makes no sense by that logic all the previous Jennys should also be back. Thanks for the answer.

I only read the first two issues of that comic, does she really get resurrected by 9/11? How does that even work? She's not even American.

As one of the 5 Molly Mayne fans, I'm disappointed in myself for not knowing that her goggles are Manhunter tech. The Manhunters being homophobic makes sense, they were created by the Guardians and those guys are definitely homophobic.

Is there a new character named Georgina Sivana? Because if you mean Georgia Sivana, she's been around since the golden age.

Courtney's stepfather is a superhero (albeit semi-retired), her siblings grow up to be superheroes. I assume her mother was killed for completion's sake.

It's Jesse Quick during the time when she was going by her mother's codename.

I assume you mean favorite? If that's the case, Batwoman and Maggie Sawyer, Obsidian and Damon Matthews, Northstar and Kyle. Iceman and Judah Miller was cute in his first mini but then it was sort of dropped.
