Marvel’s forefather Stan Lee took a stab at DC’s greatest heroes (as well as the Justice League and Crisis on Infinite Earths) back in 2001 and 2002’s Just Imagine Stan Lee. While Jerry and I did not aspire for something as ambitious, with the rumors that DC might be going through a reinvention of its comic book line, we’ve written a series of posts that feature our ideas on how we might make the icons of DC Comics over.
As we mentioned on our podcast last week, this was all done out of our affection for these some of the greatest characters in comic book history.
Superman: Superman is no man of mystery—but maybe in some ways he should be.
Batman: Has Batman’s family grown too big? It might be time to kick some of the sidekicks away.
Green Lantern: Hal Jordan is no also-ran. His place in the DCU should be more prominent.
The Flash: Was the return of Barry Allen necessary? And is the Flash facing off enemies who are formidable enough for the Fastest Man Alive.
Wonder Woman: Does our heroine have enough wonder left in her? Perhaps another woman could don the famous bracelets and lasso.
The Justice League of America: There’s only one JLA. But why? Wouldn’t the world’s greatest super team franchise themselves out to make sure the world is free of threats?
