If I apped Big Barda would that make the Scott Free thing more likely y/n

[smarterthandad]

fffffffffffffffff

So much re-reading and so much of it terrible. /sob

No seriously why is all the Fourth World stuff after Kirby so godawful.

[unhand]

ugh it's so true. I think there's a whole ton that would be just reading for me not even rereading BUT ON THE BRIGHT SIDE THERE'S LIKE... JLI STUFF.... THAT'S GOOD....

[smarterthandad]

I'd pretend nothing after Mister Miracle #19 ever happened, but then I wouldn't get JLI. IT'S A PROBLEM.

[unhand]

I don't think I ever finished reading Mister Miracle even up to 19 I need to just... read it all. ALL OF IT. And dream of a day when they'll exist again and also be well written.

[smarterthandad]

I think I might actually mean #18. Whatever Kirby's last issue was. They picked the v1 numbering back up a couple years later but it was this incomprehensible heavy-handed 70s Christ allegory where he, like, wandered around his own subconscious or some shit. idk you can't make me reread it.

[unhand]

............

comics.


Wasn't there a run somewhere that was just him and Barda trying to have a normal suburban life but being constantly interrupted by supershenanigans? Or was that just... JLI. BECAUSE I WANT THAT RUN.

[smarterthandad]

Yes! That was v2, during the JLI era.

[you_tried]

MY "SOMEONE MENTIONED THINKING ABOUT APPING JLI" SENSES WERE TINGLING

HELLO

do it

[unhand]

The question is not IF I will app JLI it's WHEN and also WHO.

Seriously I've considered everyone from Barda to Guy to Max Lord.




......I'm not sure if I'm joking about the Max Lord part or not it's possible I'm an awful person.

[smarterthandad]

Gabbie played Max for a while! He was roomies with Emma Frost and it was glorious.

[unhand]

It would probably be Superbuddies Max if it was a Max at all. Max is the least likely. Guy or Barda are the most likely. Probably Barda. I LOVE GUY SO MUCH BUT THAT WOULD MEAN SO MUCH MORE READING AND HISTORY AND CRIES YOU CAN'T MAKE ME DO IT. (No you probably could.)

[smarterthandad]

Speaking as someone who has read his entire solo title: don't do that to yourself.

[unhand]

Sobs.

This is why it's been so long since I rped comics. SO MUCH STUFF.

[smarterthandad]

You could get by with a wiki article because most of it was ignored/outright retconned as being excessively idiotic even by 90s standards.

WHISPERS GUY GARDNER

(but any of the above lbr)

[unhand]

cries about it he's 300% my type and I've played him in the past flkajsdf MAYBE SOMEDAY. Or at least next tdm.

[khajidont]

you just let me know and I will be right there to harass you with a blue bug/blue lantern 8)

[you_tried]

/MAKES EYES AT YOU

all JLI apps are good JLI apps

LET'S GET THE OLD GANG BACK TOGETHER AND EMBARRASS THE REST OF THE LEAGUE

[unhand]

Ugh I would play Guy so hard and so fast but there's so much I'd have to read. SO MUCH READING ALWAYS. But Guy he is my asshole heartsong.

[you_tried]

AH JEEZ I LOVE GUY SO MUCH and I know Jaime's player wants a Guy in game really badly too (and... could probably help you out with tracking down what to read, just sayin'). FAVE GREEN LANTERN FOREVER

(booster was secretly really disappointed that hal was the GL who showed up here instead of guy)

[unhand]

SORRY BOOSTER GUY IS DISAPPOINTED TO. Not because he particularly wanted to come but because fuck Hal Jordan getting sent to cool places all the time MAYBE GUY WANTED THE FLORIDA VACATION.

[you_tried]

just think, he can start another bar
