howabout apricot peach raspbery or lime? D

[Gargantua]

Other rumors have had it that there are supposed to be three different GLs in the set.

Just what I've heard mind you.

I like what I've heard so far (Bizarro? Well, okay.) Batgirl, Penguin and Wonder Woman are all A-OK with me. Won't complain about Jon Stewart, but I'm pulling for Guy Gardner. Particularly with JLA affiliation so I can team him with Booster and Beetle. Hopefully Martian Manhunter will be in the set so they can really aggrivate him. Drive him to eat more Oreos.

[CyberVenom]

How about "The Rumored Exapnsion List" so that, when this fruit thing passes, people won't continuously ask "What's the pineapple?". :)

Oreos? Remember the threatening lawsuit! Make that Choccos!


By the way, I keep meaning to tell you, Gargantua, that I think you've got the best signature to date. INCApacitate! Haw!

[Cell]

I seccond that Guy Gardner request! :)

[Mjolnir]

I'll 3rd that Guy Gardner.
heck, 3 people want the moon boots. Now they have to make him!:D

[Hellboy]

I too want Guy, & Martian Manhunter, & Maxwell lord, plus Power Girl, Kilawog, Silver Sorcerous, Rocket Red, Metamorpho.....

I loved that run of JLA.

[Cell]

Well most likely we might see a Sinestro out of the Big Construct, the figure is already done. So if there is a Guy, would he also be with the yellow ring? Or as a GL, or as Warrior? :confused:

[Blue-Beetle]

Hopefully G.L. I love that outfit, it's so him. I also want to see the real Injustice league Major Disaster, Cluemaster, Clock King, Big Sur, Multi-Man, was it the Amazing Bruce?. plus Gnort and Scarlett Skier so we can have the Justice League Antarctica. possibly the funiest comic of all time. :D

[Valandar]

Kilowog would be downright nasty...

Taxiing eight people while carrying the indestructible Dumpster (Kilowog was Super-Strong)...

[bobo7312]

rokie guy gardener should be green lantern
experianced guy gardener should have the yellow ring
veteran guy gardener should be warrior

[dplanas]

Hey where is the love for Kyle?? If it hadn't been for him the Green Lantern comic would have been canceled a long time ago. He's my favorite GL of all.

[Batman1983]

no I think If it hadn't been for emarald dawn (Zero hour? or whatever) Hal & John (along w/ the whole legion) would still be holding it up just fine. At least with the right writers.

[dplanas]

I beg to differ. Green Lantern at that time was constantly in the lower end of top 200 comics list. The people who liked Green Lantern weren't buying it and new readers were not coming aboard.

With the shake up sales went through the roof and the title got the publicity and the new readers to make it worthwhile for DC to continue to publish it.

Although I have to admit they really !#@#$%ed Hal. But I think Kyle is a much better character and has been a better read than Hal ever was.

Well except for Emerald Dawn . . really good story.

And the story were Hal went bonkers was Emerald Twilight

[PantherPriest]

But Hal with his crazy "I am god"-ness would make a much a great clix


On another topic... Must have twoface... with special coinflip team ability

[Batman1983]

sorry dplanas. anyway I agree Kyle is a neat character. I just read the first four 'JLA' issues by morrison. I love the part where the Martian says to his partner "turn into something yellow" & kyle goes "that was the other guy. I have no such weakness" (something along that line) & blasts the guy.

[dernjg]

You don't need Two-Face to have a special team ability. Instead, his clix should be purely random, so that pushing or taking damage may leave you with either Dent or Two-Face. Pure Luck.

[spartan89]

THANK YOU!!!!!

[Gargantua]

You're welcome. Not sure for what...

Anyway I'd be okay with Kyle. He's grown on me a lot. I was out of touch with comics for a few years, so Kyle was a bit of a suprise when I came back. Still not keeping that current, mostly picking up the occaisional graphic novel that's interested me, but from what I've seen of Kyle, he's okay. Hal was a classic, but Kyle is all right in my book.

Still like to see the Justice League era Guy Gardner though.

[dplanas]

"If they make an Aztek figure, will they give him Inca-pacitate?"


Ba bum bum ching(0r whatever that bad joke sound effect is) :)

[Ozymandas]

Good news.
WW & GL - Yay!
Bizarro - Yay!
2 more Bat-characters (that's almost 1/2 of what's been anounced) - BOO!

Not that I don't like the Batman family, but DC clix are already VERY Bat-heavy. Gimme a break!

[Gargantua]

Well, as long as there are only 3 or 4 Bat characters, that wouldn't be bad. I am a big Batman fan, so I have to say I'm glad to see Penguin and Batgirl in the set. Rumor is that others have seen a Poison Ivy as well, which would also be cool. But I'll be satisfied if they're the only three Bat related characters. They do have three other teams with no representation whatsoever to work on, as well as a couple of others that could use a boost -*cough* JSA *cough*

I suspect we'll probably see a few more Police in the generics. Make full use of the PD ability. Hopefully we'll see a new villainous group represented in the generics that isn't priced out of playability by the Superman Enemy ability (20 points for a rookie medic indeed!)

[elvisdo]

I like all the generic type characters such as cops because it adds flavour to the mix of heroes and villains. What would be great for DC to include in their Cosmic Justice set are the aliens... The Khund Warriors, Dominators, Thanagarians, Parademons. These would be great characters.

[Gargantua]

I agree. Aliens are great material for generics. I hope we'll see some in the next set. Police and Agents and Lackeys are all well and good. They've got their place. And I appreciate how in Marvel they've managed to make all the different SHIELD Agents etc. playable by giving them different specialties, but for variety's sake, a batch of different aliens would be great.

[dplanas]

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!

NO KYLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

bummer

[CyberVenom]

And just like I've said on every other thread with this "list", it's a fake. It doesn't say "Cosmic Justice" like the other expansion's have with their respective titles, and I don't think they'd call a figure "Green Lantern-Sentinel" or "Green Lantern-Hal Jordan".

Plus, every other one I've seen says "Green Lantern-John Stewart" and not Hal.

[dplanas]

whoo hooo

hope stays alive

[Comte]

Hal Jordan is the guy that got me into DC comics in general. I never really liked superman or wonderwoman, and batman was more fun to watch than it was to read. Anyway then last christmas my grandma gave me a box of comic books that she picked up at a yard sale. They were all DC stuff and I got most of the issues imeadiatly following the time when Hal went bonkers. I was very impressed with the writing which is far beyond the level I would expect in mainstream comics. So that made me a fan of Hal and I would love to have a clix of him. I also agree that a bonkers hal would make for a wonderful unique. I dunno I just felt the need to voice my support for Hal.

[DrPepper]

Let's see if it stays up or not.

[JackAssterson]

The above list posted by Keef is not real. It was created by forum member phicks. You can find its origin on TheLex's thread here:

http://www.hcrealms.com/forum/showthread.php?threadid=27658&pagenumber=4

Once again, it is not real.

[Noman]

The interesting thing about the (fake) list - (and I need to be careful. as I was one of those who thought the John Stewart Green Lantern transparant mail away ad was a fake) - is that this (fake) list was individualy hand typed all the way down, originaly, rather than being done using copy/paste -

eg Rocket
Rocker
Rocket

...see?


99% sure it's fake, although it does contain the DC figs we do know are coming...

All the Best

Noman

[DrPepper]

Thanks for the heads up.
List looked good though.

His first list was pretty good though....Harley's Hyenas....

;)

[elvisdo]

At least you know that Batman and Superman will always be in the set. That much is a given. It's deciding what the other 94 figures will be.

Exactly. There are many different species that DC can draw upon as generic figs. Lord, can you imagine the Daxamites as a force, each with the power of Superman at their disposal? For Cosmic Justice, I would include the minions of Qward to be in this set to help out the giant Sinestro construct. Now that would be an awesome army.

As for Marvel, they should start introducing the Kree and Shi'ar Empire into the mix. After all, the Skrulls need some opponents.

[Noman]

We're reasonably sure of Penguin.

Also, we know the REV John Stewart will be in it.

There will be at least 1, probably 2 other GL's logicaly Hal and Guy. Possibly Alan, to fill out JSA. The fact that Kyle couldn't realy be given an REV version that would make sense, means he will be an unique, if he's there at all.

As to the list, it is fairly obvious that there will be some |Legion of Superheros characters in the release (hooray !) and again, it is more likely to be the "true" Legion, rather than the more recent SciFi version. Sensible assunptions would be Lightning Lad, Light Lass, Cosmic Boy, Brainiac 5, and possibly the first version of Superboy.


Can't wait.

Has everyone forgotten the most powerful member of the Legion of Superheroes...Bouncing Boy? :D
