But otherwise you can be PG which do you want?


I guess I'll be the cat. But I think my South Park Clan name is funnier than my JSA one.

[JayThor]

I thought we already had a Flash, and I did include Starman and Hawkgirl on my post several pages ago.;)

[supermangl1]

D'oh someone IS the Flash.

Rokk, JayThor is the keeper of the records around here. The list comes from him of former and current members, alas I am trying to catch up on all of my history of JSA, and my level has not reached all knowing as of yet.....

But I have learned much from you Mr. Rokk Krinn, you almost have me getting the Legion added to my hold box. ;)

JayThor he is right, the list is lacking! :eek: I will found out who was the Flash. Be right back.

[Rokk_Krinn]

Thank you kindly, SGL. :) Though are you going to throw things at me when I point out Shiera Hall was Hawkgirl and not a Dr. Fate (and that the gestalt/merged Fate was never a JSA member? :) ). And to ease your record keeping - Dan Richards and Paul Kirk were the two Manhunters.

Hey, someone has to keep you new blood JSA'ers on your toes. It's all about the past. :)

[JayThor]

The Strauss' (the married couple) were never a JSA member. They were JLA. Shiera Saunders was Hawkgirl, and is reincarnated as Kendra, hence, only one slot open for Hawkgirl.

For accuracy sake, there was also a male Firebrand, Danette Reilly's brother. He had no powers, but was just athletic.

[supermangl1]

and look up me in the users section to rate my custom dials. plz plz plz plz.
thank u very much.

[hawkeye2831]

Can I switch to Dr.Fate?

[JayThor]

Why be a dupe, when you have your own identity? Reddy got serious props from Superman and Flash for his time with both their teams and working with the youngsters. I figured we would only use Kent when all the others were filled. It is your choice, though.

[DragonFro]

I must have been gone for awhile, because I was pretty sure I started the JSA clan a few months ago. I read where jaythor mentioned being part of it early in this post. So where does this leave my JSA clan?

[JayThor]

MIA I guess. No one ever posted on it, and I couldn't even find it when this one started. Sorry. Nick started it over again, and it has kept rolling. Feel free to pick another great character and jump in!

[DragonFro]

Well I guess that seems fair. I'll take the role of Kent Nelson as Dr. Fate. Though I feel I've let the JSA down by letting the first clan vanish.... (dramatic pause)
Please forgive me.

[JayThor]

Think of it as the end of the first team in the 70's and the resurgence in the 90's.

[Gentlegamer]

DragonFro: so as Hector Hall, should I come to you for advice on the magic of Nabu?

[JayThor]

Yes, you should. Don't ask Nabu, he is not always a nice guy......;)

[supermangl1]

Hello my fellow clan members! GL here after a rough marque event. Sealed is hard to manage some times, what were your teams? Mine was the following:
EXP Dr. Fate (;) JSA always baby!)
Vet Deadshot
Vet Frost
Vet Uncdercover cop
Exp DEO

I love the Suicide squad clixs and the comic, but against the Vet GL's they had a hard time, but I made it into the final four out of ten players. I handed a Mr. Bones Black Adam team his butt, in a ugly slaughter where he lost everyone and I lost no none. It ended in a great comic book ending:

The last turn I get, Bones has run for four turns now, Fate. Frost and Deadshot are in pursuit. Last turn, on top of the roof, Bones thinks he's safe behind some blocking terrian. Deadshot has a bead on him at blast him for 4 plus knockback off the roof! Dead on splatting! That one was fun. How did you all do?

Sorry Dragonfro about the last clan. Welcome back!

"DOn't break a hip!"

[JayThor]

Friday, I had the misfortune of playing against a guy who pulled a KC Superman at a Marquee. Needless to say, he won. I did get second, points-wise. This guy is so lucky, he pulled another Superman on Saturday for the Marquee I judged! He won that one,too.
My team:
E Green Lantern
V Hawkgirl
R HDC
U Nubia
R Deadshot

As a judge, I got Kara Zor-el, but I really wanted a Hal. The Super-lucky guy, who is a friend, traded me the 2nd Hal he got for a Trigon's daughter (LE Raven). Hope the rest of the clan did so well!

[supermangl1]

I walked away with a Vet Deadshot who I really wanted but didn't pull in a entire case! Oh well! It sure was fun!

[NickFury15]

I don't even get to go to tournements, let alone marquees. The judge at the comic book store I'd play at lacked the brain power to turn off the lights and lock the door after he left a tournement, and needless to say, he was fired. Obviously, the owner of the store is a little nervous appointing a new judge after what happened (the store could have been robbed blind, thank goodness it wasn't), so we've never had another tourney.

[JayThor]

I finally got to read my JSA. Great story. I loved the explanations of faith by Dr. Midnite. I can't wait to see where this story goes. It looks like another great epic building.....

[JayThor]

New topic: What are the ages of our clan members?

I am 33.

[greg_wolf]

i'm 16 and still in ####py high school

[FishBulb]

im 16 too:o

[Gentlegamer]

26 . . . and loving it!

[doctorfate77]

26

[supermangl1]

24, just like the tv show! But I'm having the time of my life, beautiful wife, great job, awesome JSA stories, and heroclixs. Oh yeah!

[Kid Zero]

40 and feeling old

[NickFury15]

16, and feeling like with my age, I shouldn't be President of this clan...

[JayThor]

Sand was leader in the book, even with Green Lantern, Flash, and Hawkman around. Seeing as the job is pretty low-stress;) , I think you'll do fine.

[supermangl1]

I second that opinion!

[supermangl1]

Well my fellow clan members, some of you might have come across my "Goodbye Kyle Raynor...." thread in the DC discussion forum. It seems that Hal Jordan is on his way back into the spotlight. While the details are not clear yet, the current Green Lantern series will end with #181. And "Hal will be back with a ring and in the outfit." Fear that Kyle will not fair well in the upcoming months. What are your thoughts about it? I am very sad about the idea of Kyle losing his series, and have a sense of dread that he won't survive much longer. I hope I'm wrong about it though.....

[NickFury15]

I just picked up the new Jim Lee Superman, and there is a panel with Kyle having some trouble fighting something.

To tell you the truth, I couldn't be happier about Hal coming back (maybe, we aren't sure!). I don't really like Kyle, but Hal is my favorite comic book character.

[JayThor]

Alan is actually my favorite ring-slinger, but I grew up with Hal. Kyle stories have been good, better than anything with Stewart or Gardner.
Hal as GL- I am guessing this will have something to do with the storyline currently in JSA?

[JayThor]

I did like the old Hal stuff.

[greg_wolf]

it should because johns is doin the green lantern rebirth series in october which is the bringing back of hal. it was said that kyle will play a major role in this though.... i bet kyle will hang around for awhile and probily do the goin into space thing or something i don't know.

[JayThor]

Kyle will not just be dumped, IMO. I think he will still be around, in some fashion.

[Gentlegamer]

That would explain why Hal Jordan showed up in the last JSA . . .

[supermangl1]

I'm trying not to jump to any conclusions, but Kyle doesn't much respect with alot of creators, for instance Alex Ross, who refused to paint Kyle in any story or poster. (he did it once, but said never again). I would love for Kyle to start the corps with Kilowag.

But there is a mini series that Hal comes back in, and it says Kyle plays a major part in the series. As a fan of Kyle, and all Green Lanterns, I fear that he may not make through.....but then again this is comic books he'll be back in a couple of years!

[Doom05]

I am back. I havn't been on In a while and this has probably already been discussed in other threads but what do you all think about the new Ultimates teams?

[supermangl1]

Well I think that the team symbols look awful. They could of done that better, imho. But the powers themself are very useful, except for the Morlocks, because it going to be hard to get everyone into positon to get that power to work. The Serpant society is very cool and powerful, so is the Ultimates and Ultimate X-Men. I perfer the Ultimate titles over the regular Marvel universe, so this is good to see. The Ultimates could be very powerful, but like it was said before, the 'anti-stealth' power is not cheap. Could be bad for all Cap A. I hope not though.

[JayThor]

I don't care for anything Ultimates, for the most part. The Serpent Society is cool, the Morlocks was unnecessary, the Ultimates TA must have a high cost, because it is very powerful. THe X is just a rip of 2000AD. Saving my money for the next DC set.........:laugh:

[supermangl1]

I'll buy a some boosters at the Wizard World in Chicago to get the LE Surfer and Invisble Woman, but I'm saving money for the cheap bins and back issues of JSA. But I'll get probablly about 10 boosters.

[NickFury15]

Well, let's get the ball rolling on the thread again...

What JSA villain do you want to see portrayed as a Hero Clix the most?

I'd love to see a Brainwave Jr.

[greg_wolf]

i would like to see a prince of darkness dr fate mordru or a obsidian.

[Rokk_Krinn]

Sportsmaster. Heck, they could even justify it by saying they're trying to crossover to Sportsclix buyers. ;)

[NickFury15]

Well, luckly, Unleashed gave us one of the JSA's coolest villains, Black Adam. But calling him a villain is kind of like calling Magneto a villain. It's only part true.

[Hatut Zeraze]

My 1st choice for the next JSA villain for heroclix:

The Fiddler!

2nd choice:

Johnny Sorrow (duh!)

[Gentlegamer]

Oh, Black Adam is a villain, alright! So is Magneto . . . but they are both the very interesting kind, like Richard III and Macbeth . . .

[JayThor]

1. Obsidian- a definite need, as AE for Alan Scott

others that need making:
Blackbriar Thorn
Brain Wave Sr. and Jr.

[supermangl1]

I want Brainwave Jr, just without the Jr. on the dail. To me he showed himself to be the biggest telepath/mentalist in DC, where there is no many like in Marvel. He should have a big attack and like a 10 range, with mind control of course.

After that Obsidan would rock!

[supermangl1]

YEAH!!!! Over 300 hundred posts!

'balloons drop from ceiling' Yeah!

ok I'm done.

[supermangl1]

Here is an interesting news tidbit I found on 'newsarama.com'

JSA kicks off the two-part “Waking the Sandman” story in June, bringing Silver Age hero Cave Carson into the mix to find the missing Sand, who’s been trapped underground ever since he literally prevented the earth from pulling itself apart. Artist on the arc is Jerry Ordway.


Let us rejoice!

[NickFury15]

For Brainwave Jr., I can see a 10 range, triple attack. Give him an 11 or 12 as his attack #'s, and Psy-Blast.

[JayThor]

That attack would be too high. 10 on the Vet, he is a normal human. IMO.

[NickFury15]

Professor Xavier got an 11.

Brainwave is basically a Professor Xavier that isn't afraid to use his powers!

[JayThor]

But with much less experience, due to his age, and often being comatose.



By the way, supermangl1- that sounds like it will be a great storyline.

[NickFury15]

I don't think we'll have to worry about Brainwaves dial, since we probably aren't ever going to see one. I think we're going to be stuck with 1-2 JSA characters per set (we got lucky with 3 in Unleashed!). Brainwave isn't very high on the demand level (though I really want one)

You can compensate by using an E White Queen, but she's not up to his power level.

And yeah, I'm glad Sand is coming back! Still like Teriffic more, JayThor...

[JayThor]

I don't know. he will probably get a figure/dial. He has been around for 20 years. I think that should get him a figure. I love the White Queen idea. I just have to come up with a good male figure to use.

THat's ok about Terrific, Sand is still a better leader.:p

[supermangl1]

I think we might get a Brainwave figure. Probably in a unique form but he should be awesome. In the Green Lantern series he took out Jade, Alan, and Kyle. And we all saw what he did in Black Reign. I think he deserves an 11 attack. If you can mind control three different people with HUGE willpower, and mind control Captain Marvel without effort, then he should have a big attack. And a 10 range. Super Senses with like a 16 def. Physic blast a few clicks into his dail.

Oh and I'm excited to see Sand back myself!

[JayThor]

With a 10, he would only have to roll a 6 to hit Captain Marvel. I agree on the 10 range, though 3 arrows is going to make him very expensive. Remember, the Mr. Mind worm was in him during Black Reign.

[supermangl1]

That is true Mr. Mind was inside him. I wonder if he amped up his powers any or if he just ate away at the tumor in his brain? You could have a Brainave click and a Mr. Mind LE!

[JayThor]

I think he was amping him, while feeding on the tumor.

[NickFury15]

Before conversation gets too flat, why don't I throw another topic out there:

For all the fans of DTM's tournements, which do you prefer, the solo fights, or the team? If you like the team battles more, did you prefer themes (like JSA, who won!), or the format as it is now?

I like what's going on now. Half the fun was seeing who would be on which team.

[JayThor]

I don't really follow them, they tend to be too long. I do occaisionally vote.

[supermangl1]

I agree that the current form is fun. Getting to see who got teamed up is cool. I love the Catwoman, Captain America, Solomon Grundy, and Doomsday team. It would be the funniest book in comics ever. Catwoman puts the moves on Cap, who is trying to control the situation, and failing horribily, Grundy staring blankly at Cap's multisylabic words, and Doomsday contstantly running around smashing through all the walls. Well fun to think about.

Anyone know who this Cave Carson guy is, whose suppose to help JSA find Sand.

[JayThor]

Cave Carson is a spelunker/adventurer, who had his own book/part of a book a long time ago. He had teammates, a girl love interest, and many adventures underground. DC was big on teams like that. There was a diving team, a time travel team(led by Rip Hunter), Atomic Knights, etc.

[Kid Zero]

The Diving Team were the Sea Devils, I think. Don't forget the Challengers of the Unknown.

[JayThor]

Sea Devils with Dan Dorrance as leader, I believe. No wonder they were part of the Forgotten Heroes....:laugh:

[supermangl1]

I can't wait for the next JSA to come out. I had the slowest comic week ever....no titles!!!! It's enough to make someone weep. :cry:

Is it next Wednesday yet?

[JayThor]

I know the feeling. When I was single, I used to get 30 titles a month, so I had books every week. This was over 10 years ago. Then I had to cut back to 10 books a month after we got together. I still usually had at least one book a week, and usually more. Then the children came, and the list was cut down further, eventually to only 4 books. Now at least 2 weeks of the month pass without a comic at all.
:(

:eek:

[supermangl1]

I understand the comic budget idea. I am married as well, (to one rather fine woman) and my comics are part of the budget. Now I only have 5-6 titles on my pull list, but I might grab one or two off the shelf as well. So I used to get 20 different titles, when I was younger, but now I get what I really want and am happy with it.

But NO comics is hard in a week is hard.......

Side note question, has anyone else seen this Digtial comics at Toys'R Us? They are the comics put on DVD with the panels shown with someone reading the word balloons. They were like $13.99 for like six issues, and I said no way. But the Crossgen titles were only $3.99. So I give it a shot. Anyone seen these things?

[Kid Zero]

Wasn't Dane Dorrance? I forget...:rolleyes:

[JayThor]

I pick up an occaisional book from the shelf, like the Firestorm #1 that just came out. I got the Avengers/JLA crossover, and the Hawkman issues from Black Reign storyline.

I double checked, and it was Dane Dorrance from the Sea Devils.

[Maniac_nmt]

I recently picked up a couple of JSA issues dealing with the 'Black Reign' story line.

Could you cue me in a little on the back story (the two issues I have, one has Black Adam on the cover smashing through the JSA, and the other has Atom Smasher with his mask all torn up on it). I'm at a loss for how eclipso ever got used by a hero, and one that sounds like he used to be on the JSA.

The seen with Atom Smasher snagging the jet and ripping Terrific and Midnight out was classic though.

Did these former JSA members/heros just up and follow BA off to Khandaq? Or is something else going on?

[JayThor]

Montoya had tattoos that allowed him to keep control of the Eclipso gem, but still access the powers. When Eclipso was defeated in the last big storyline (around #50), he gained control of the gem.

Black Adam has been encouraging Atom Smasher to leave since AS killed Extant to save his mother. Adam thought he would be able to get the JSA to help him, but later realized they would not help in taking over a country. He then went about finding members and non-members that were sympathetic to his ideals.

[supermangl1]

The Black Reign storyline was great, but it is also in a few Hawkman issues, not just JSA. There is some interesting things going on, Black Adam found out just who has nothing left to lose and built a really strong team. I strongly recommend you pick up the other issues.

[supermangl1]

Another great issue this month! What did you guys think about it? It was still kinda creepy with Spectre hanging around with no eyeballs and oozing. He said some very interesting things....

I have to say I love having Rex Tyler as Hourman. I'm use to seeing Rick just freak out and go paranoid. Rex is kicking anyone's butt he can find to kick. He fling that truck like a frisbee. Awesome issue. What were your thoughts on it?

[Gentlegamer]

I'm thinking it is time to pick up my pulls at the comic shop!

[NickFury15]

Last issue was great. Can't wait until Hal comes back as GL (wink,wink)

Have they ever gone into how strong/durable Hourman gets?

[JayThor]

Guys, I have a favor to ask. I know you get excited, but Please don't divulge story info until the following month, to make sure everyone has a chance to read their copy. I only get to the comicbook store twice a month, since it is 30+ miles away. I won't get mine before next weekend. Thanks for the consideration.

[supermangl1]

Sorry JayThor, "I shall resist!" It is good issue but we of the JSA clan will withhold on info on it till you post that you have read the issue.

Have they ever said how durable Hourman is? I think he's bullet proof, but I don't know how much he can resist. Any else know? it seems Rex is more resistent to damage then Rick was. It may just appeaer that way though.

[JayThor]

I don't mean to be a pill, but it is a pet peeve of mine. I had a friend who always wanted to read my books and then talk about them before I had a chance to read them. (I would be reading another title. I used to get lots of books weekly, before marriage.) He would comment and ask questions while reading. After a while, I wouldn't let him read them until after I finished all of them.

As to Hourman, I don't think he is bulletproof. DC has always been pretty vague about power levels and resistence levels. After all, Wonder Woman is supposed to be close to Superman in power, but still needs the bracelets to block bullets. Go figure. Hourman gets a boost in strength, and I'm sure that gives him some resistence. The way I figure it, he heals fast and gains immunity to disease, so if he gets shot, he just heals up quickly.

[NickFury15]

Well, this is pretty cool. New JSA stories that take place in the Golden Age.

JSA: Strange Adventures (http://www.dccomics.com/comics/dc_display.html?cm_dc_itemCode=jsastrangeadv1&month=August)

[JayThor]

It looks really cool. Thanks for the heads up! I'll mention it to my dealer.

[JayThor]

I finally got to read my JSA for this month-

Is it just me, are do the writers have a better average than Ted Williams?
They are consistent in giving us a great story, month after month. I found myself thinking about the Per Degaton story as I read this one, wondering how it fit. The Alan/Hal reunion was great, and we got to see some serious power from Alan without the wood thing being used.

As to Hourman, I was wrong! He most assuredly looks bulletproof to me.:o

[supermangl1]

Yeah thats why I asked, zombie with the Tommy Gun let him have it, yet he picked up that truck and chucked it anyway. It was an awesome issue! Still thought it was weird no one flinched at seeing the Spectre. Who if I was a DC superhero, would more then likely not want around.

What did you think about Hal saying God forgives heroes, "Even John..."
Being John Stewart I believe. That is a very interesting statement. Is Hal just jealous or does he resent John for screwing up all those years ago?

[JayThor]

I think it has to do with the Mosaic series. I didn't read it, but I think Hal sees John being forgiven for many deaths, and that he could/should be forgiven, himself. I guess more will be explained on that, leading to his return as GL. Hopefully they will get rid of Stewart, or at least ship him off into deep space. Kyle is just getting shafted royally in the GL book. Hopefully that will change for the better as well.

Wow, it's been hard to get back and post here as much as I would like. So what are your favorite top 3 comics you get not including JSA. Which would be #1 for each of us, due to how hard it rocks each month.

Mine are (not including JSA):

2. Nightwing
3. Aquaman (yes I said Aquman)
4. Secret War (I know it's marvel, but I'm a sucker for painted comics)

[supermangl1]

Is anyone else enjoying Rex Tyler being around WAY more then Rick? I know I am. It's good to see a Hourman who isn't afriad to show what he can do.

[C@ptinM@rvel]

Hi,
Newbie here, I would love to be Dr. Mid-Nite (Charles McNider) if thats ok. By the way I'm into the current Dr Mid-night but he was taken. Could someone tell if the Golden age Dr. Mid-Nite (Charles McNider) was good character or not.
thanks.

[JayThor]

1. Thor
2. Nightwing
3. Legion of Super Heroes

[NickFury15]

1. Ultimates
2. Nightwing
3. Ultimate X-men

Pieter - the current Mid-Nite (not Night as I see a lot of people typing) - is a great character, but without McNider you wouldn't have Cross. Charles did far less battlefield healing and didn't carry as many gadgets but he was outstanding; except for a few "revisionist" versions of him, Dr. McNider was one of the most beloved members of the Justice Society (and helped kick-off the All-Star Squadron). My suggestion - before you go take a name, know something about the character so you don't take it from someone else that might actually be a fan of the character? :)

Oh, and as for the comics question, SGL, in no particular order but sticking with DC (or their imprints):

1) Nightwing (the storyline's got me hooked)
2) Fables
3) Planetary (okay, probably doesn't count as a monthly..:) )

[supermangl1]

I really like the Nightwing title. Though I know some are not happy with some occurances of late. I see it as believable, I know if I don't sleep for a couple of days and get the tar knocked out of me, I may not be at the height of reasoning power.

I too get The Ultimates, but isn't it more of a quarterly title ( ;) )? I love it when it comes out though.

Haven't kept up with Thor since he went Odinforce. Is he still nigh all powerful?

[GoldenAge]

Okay, I give... ;)

I just can't sit around knowing that Uncle Sam doesn't have representation in the JSA Clan.

If you'll have me I'd like to assume that moniker.

Uncle Sam has arrived! His presence will spurn you on to greater things and keep your mind, body and spirit young and strong. More importantly, Uncle Sam will hold you accountable for upholding the virtues that make men into heroes!

[JayThor]

Yes, Thor is still nigh all powerful, but it seems this storyline is about to end, and an all new one will be starting soon.

Uncle Sam, welcome aboard!

[supermangl1]

I knew Goldenage couldn't hold out forever!!!! We welcome Uncle Sam to our group. To be honest I find it proper that Uncle Sam is now represented by GA.

Welcome.

[Gentlegamer]

Honored to have you aboard, GoldenAge!

[Gentlegamer]

It appears that the Lords of Order have transported our clan to a new forum!

[doctorfate77]

wow. i havent been here in a while. i apologize for my lengthy absence from the thread. I'm more awake than i used to be, so i can give more attention to the other 400 clans i'm in. ;)

anyhoo, can someone post the current roster? just to see where we are?

[NickFury15]

I called the moving company. They're shipping the Brownstone over here, brick by brick.

[supermangl1]

Has anyone seen my the box with my dvd's in it? I wish I knew we were being moved, I went to our old address and the manor was gone! After having a Charlton Heston of crying out in despair and lamenting over missing home and JSA members, found the note on the mail box. Crisis adverted!

:)

Heard JayThor got stuck moving the refrigerator.

Did any find Fishbulb anywhere in the manor? I always figured he got lost and wandered into the lab. Where he threw the Negative Zone generator switch instead of the light switch. (I've always wondered why we even had the switch.)

The updated roll we be up in a couple days. Headed off to Six Flags Monday morning, won't be back to Tuesday.

[Kid Zero]

Anyone seen my boxing gloves?---Wildcat
PS. I think I put the DVD's in the attic.

[JayThor]

Fortunately, with the stamina of Atlas, I was able to keep moving it all around the kitchen until our fearless leader decided where he wanted it.:grin:

[NickFury15]

The kitchen. Duh!

[Kid Zero]

Can we move the Kitchen? It's always gotten in my way, when I view the backyard.---Wildcat

[doctorfate77]

The [color=green]SPECTRE[/color=green] thinks that he deserves his OWN bathroom

[doctorfate77]

oops....

[COLOR=green][B]SPECTRE[B/][COLOR=green] also wants his room near the kitchen!

this is what i get for trying to type code and watch TV at the same time....

[greg_wolf]

havn't been on line in awhile and i'm feeling an itch for a new discussion. uh.........hows about......i got nothing. wait heres something. u all know the justice league cartoon right, some episodes r better than others but thats besides the point. but the story for the new justice league unlimited isaparently some characters from jsa will be joining the ranks. who would u guys like to see on the line up. personaly i'd like to see a jack knight starman or a carter hall hawkman(not likly but one can dream)

[JayThor]

Dr. Fate seems likely. I would like Alan Scott and Captain Marvel.

There was an episode with a version of the JSA- it had a GL, Black Canary, Wildcat, Flash, all with different names, of course. It was pretty cool.

[NickFury15]

Back to the JSA. Is it just me, or is "Redemption Lost" as great as "Black Reign"? Which do you guys prefer?

I'm going to cast a vote for "Redemption Lost", believe it or not.

[NickFury15]

Is it just me, or is "Redemtion Lost" as good as "Black Reign"? Which do you guys think is better?

I'm going to say "Redemtion Lost", but it might just be because I'm a Hal fanatic.

[NickFury15]

[supermangl1]

Ok, I say Spectre gets his own bathroom. I don't want to use it after he lets some 'spectre bombs' in there anyway!

Why are the DVD's in the attic? They should be in entertainment center by our plasma screen tv!

Oh, I found NF15's, Roger and Hammerstien's musical collection minus the Sound of Music! Who has it?


Oh and I saw Power Girl's cat with Wildcat's boxing gloves in the back yard.

[supermangl1]

I say we let Spectre have his own bathroom. I don't want to use it after he let one of his 'Spectre Bombs' in there anyway!

I found the DVDs! But Roger and Hammerstiens Cinderella is missing! Confess who has IT?

Oh and I saw Power Girl's cat with Wildcat's boxing gloves in the backyard.

As far who I want to see on JL Unlimited, Green Lantern (Alan Scott) or Captain Marvel.

[NickFury15]

So, "Redemption Lost" is about to wrap up. Which did you prefer, "Redemption Lost", or "Black Reign"?

I'm going to say "Redemption Lost"

[supermangl1]

Wow it actully posted my posts when I thought I messed up and wrote my post over. Wierd.

About time someone let me into the Manner I've been camped outside on the back lawn for 10 days now!

Oh and Black Riegn over redemption lost, but Redemption Lost has been awesome as well, with some of the most meaningful pages in a comic in a long time.

[Gentlegamer]

I can't choose one over the other. Both are very different types of stories, and both are very, very good!

[JayThor]

I liked Black Reign better, though they were both good. I was suprised that Hal was still Spectre at the end, since he is heavily rumored to be returning to the GL identity. I love how the writing team manages to include so many members in their fights, without making it look like it is a walk in the park, like the JLA staff usually does.

[Gentlegamer]

Both Green Lantern and Mister Terrific were injured rather nicely in the end fight. It's good to see a battle not leave participants unscathed, like in other comics . . .

[JayThor]

I agree. There are also the emotional scars, which other non-Spiderman titles usually ignore. Spiderman was the first to have the repercussions a part of future storylines.

[NickFury15]

Wow. It posted every time I tried posting that question when the forum wasn't working. Maybe the first pentuple (?) post in the history of the realms.

[supermangl1]

I liked it too that they were not unscathed from their battles since Mr. Terrific almost died! Normally they get up the next day since all super heroes have regen and all mutants have super strength (sarcasm alert!)

[JayThor]

Actually, Nick, we had a problem back in early 2003 with postings getting the "unable to load page", and people were posting the same thing 10 times! I actually did that once. Fortunately that kind of stuff doesn't happen much anymore.

[NickFury15]

Well the solution is simple. I have to post the same thing 11 times! Bwa-ha-ha!

[Rokk_Krinn]

I have to admit that seeing Hal give up on Redemption and go the Vengeance route fits the character a lot better. It's almost tragic in a way - you had hoped he'd learned the lessons of the past - but at the same time, you can tell something is brewing because of it (while I don't always support the idea of the Uber-Bat, I really back Bruce's opinion of Hal's actions and seriously hope the Bat gets to knock Jordan down a notch :) ). Besides, with Mandrake's artwork and all of the walking Spec-victims, it was a real nice trip down memory lane.

My main disappointment of the storyline? Here we are finally getting to see Portsmouth after all of these years and we really don't get to see much of an update on it. Obviously Doc's "crew" has grown substantially and we _hear_ that Camille is still around but, blast it, I want to see her! I admit, I was geeking out when I heard Doc was returning to his home town for a storyline and thought it might center a bit more on him - and he certainly wasn't ignored in the storyline - but it did seem like the story could've taken place pretty much anywhere. Oh, and anyone on the JSA Discussion Thread (DC Comics Forum on HCRealms) has already had to endure my rant about how Pieter's a real screw-up if he let his mother die the way she did (and it's no secret how much I love the Mid-Nite's so it's hard for me to say that. :) ).

Funny thing about Terrific getting rushed in for emergency treatment: the panel where he gets hit, it doesn't look like he was clocked that hard - we've seen him nailed worse. :)

[doctorfate77]

regarding the whole Spectre thing, why is it that he has never taken to punishing the killer of Bruce's parents? be it Joe Chill, John Corben, or what have you.

With the bridge between Hal and Bruce, why has that never been visited before (as I'm this clans' SPECTRE, I'm pretty curious) as an attempt to reconnect, as odd of a make-up as that would be...

"Bruce, I know we have fallen out of favor with each other, but I'd like to make it up to you."

"and HOW do you plan on doing that, Jordan?!?"

"I found your parents' real killer and i turned him into a Whack-a-Mole game. Here's the hammer. Cheers, mate!"

*Bruce and the 25-foot Ghost of Vengance share a meaningful hug*

I mean, It's obvious that of all people, The Spectre would know the right guy to punish.

just a thought...

[JayThor]

If not Spectre, then the Crimson Avenger. Imagine her tracking down Chill and Batman with his "no-killing" attitude trying to stop her....

[Rokk_Krinn]

I think the problems with Hal inflicting Vengeance upon the killer of Batman's parents - besides just finding out who the killer is (as post-ZH it's an unidentified individual) - would be that even against the man who destroyed his family, I can't see Bruce condoning the gruesome acts the Spectre would inflict.

There's also the problem of taking away Bruce's sense of closure by performing the act for him. Think about it: you've devoted your entire life due to the actions of this one man - one you've sworn to someday find and bring to justice - and then someone you don't even like or trust comes along and kills him. Bit of a void left there, I think. I guess what I'm trying to say is that the thug's fate is best left in the hands of Bruce and for Hal to take away that final decision from Batman would totally destroy any future bridge-building attempts.

I debated whether or not Hal could use the Spectre's powers and connections to at least find out the identity of the killer and pass it on to Bruce, but somehow I think his duties as the Spectre would then make Hal go inflict a horrible punishment on the thug, leading to the above problems.

[doctorfate77]

good point.

however, as of Superman/Batman #1 fingers are being pointed to John Corben (Metallo) as the killer of the Wayneses.

Don't know how long they plan on holding onto that...

[doctorfate77]

or was it issue #2....

don't remember.

[Gentlegamer]

I love the thought-provoking issues JSA brings up!

I think the idea was disclaimed later in the story arc as it was widely hinted that Luthor was trying to distract the Bat with a made-up story. I know editorial decree from the Bat Offices is that the killer is still unknown (something about them wanting Bruce to view each criminal as potentially the killer).

[doctorfate77]

ah, cool.

fair enough. I just gotta admit I'm a sucker for unexpected team-ups.

I LOVED the Batman/Alan Scott team up from last year. I would love to see more of that kind.

[Gentlegamer]

Just wanted to report that I'm doing my part to get more JSA characters in the next DC set!

By the way Gentlegamer, I got the Magneto you want.

But he's not for trade. :)

[The Qwardian]

By the way Nickfury, I got the kidney you need.

But You can't have it.

[JayThor]

By the way, Qwardian, I got the sense of humor you need, but you can't have it.;)









Sorry, I couldn't resist. j/k, no evil intent, Q.:grin:

[JayThor]

If you could have only one JSA'er in the next set (Which seems to be all they give us;) ) who would you choose?

My vote- Alan Scott
R- Green Lantern with JSA TA
E- Sentinal with Mystic TA
V- Green Lantern with JSA TA
U- Green Lantern with KC TA (different sculpt)

[Gentlegamer]

I vote Doctor Mid-Nite!

See my thread in dreams and desires for a possible dial . . .

[greg_wolf]

i already made an alan scott outta a doctor strange and gave him a dial. WHICH IS PERFECT I SAY!!!!!!! so the jsa i'd most like to see who be power girl. large breasted one woman wrecking crew.

[supermangl1]

Green Lantern wanders into Brownstone manor confused

You know I still can't get use to our new address, I've been living in a tent at the old address..........

So anyone seen my Sean Connery collection?

Since my wife is going on vacation this week, and I'll be at home. (Which is cool, I'll miss her but she gets to go to Flordia with her friends, I get to go to Wizard World Chicago with mine) I'll be watching my James Bond collection. So in honor of that I say it's time for a poll!!!

What is your favorite James Bond Movie? And who is the best James Bond?

Mine is Goldfinger and Sean Connery! The best James Bond ever.

[supermangl1]

Oh and by the way if I had to pick one JSA'er for the next set it would be :Dr. Mid-Nite!

A stealthed medic with a ranged attack and hopefully incapitate!! How awesome would that be.......Of course thats if they do him right by my standards.

[JayThor]

Sean Connery is the best, but my favorite is For Your Eyes Only. That came out when I was a kid, and I remember that Greek girl was drop-dead gorgeous!

[Rokk_Krinn]

No question whom I want to see most in the next DC set (and if I have to shell out another $500 to continue to promit people's interest in Mid-Nite then by gum I'll do it! :) ).

Oh, and I keep forgetting about the Clan Forums so I went and posted something in the DC Comics Forum (JSA thread) that might interest you folks....minor JLA novel spoiler by the way (really minor):


The JSA appears in it. :) Hawkman, Atom Smasher, Mid-Nite, Terrific, Courtney, etc. - not huge roles but they do show up.

[NickFury15]

For some reason, I really liked Diamonds Are Forever. I don't really know why, but I just like it.

As for my favorite James Bond? Connery and Moore are kind of tied for the acting. As for looks, when I'm reading the books, I picture Tim Dalton.

How was everyones Ultimate pulls? I got a nice REV set of both Cap and Hawkeye, as well as Magneto and Phoenix.

[JayThor]

I bought 1 booster- and got E Cyclops(which I traded for V Colossus) V Hellcat, R Sentinel, R Hellfire Club and a free V Hawkeye for buying a booster. The ebay stuff is coming this week (Thor and REV Wrecker), and I will probably buy in for the Marquee.

[Gentlegamer]

Best Bond Film: From Russia with Love

Connery is of course the best although Dalton was actually more like the Fleming Bond.

[lensnart]

Hey is anyone Starman, if not then I would like to be Starman
the Jack one. Jack is the antiques dealer right, then i will be him.

[lensnart]

Oh and on her majesty's secret service, is by far the best bond. Bobsled races, Telly Savales, catholic school girls. and don't forget bond acts gay gets married and becomes a widower all in the same movie. George Lazemby's way too cocky delivery and over the top nonchalant chauvinism is what Bond is all about.

[JayThor]

New topic:
Do you think Captain Marvel leaving the JSA is good or bad?


Obviously, I vote bad.

[Rokk_Krinn]

I've despised the loss of Captain Marvel. He just really fit into the style and idealism of the JSA, plus it was a nice nod to his Golden Age history. Not to mention, I was really liking the idea of Billy and Courtney. Hey, I admit it - I pay more attention to the soap operas than I do the action. :) 'Course that's also because the soap opera aspects require more words ergo more to read which means I get more for my money than just splash panels.

[JayThor]

I agree. He is old-school, and that made him fit better with the JSA than the JLA, IMO. I also liked the budding teen romance. He fit her much better than Jakeem, though I do miss seeing him and T-bolt/Johnny.

[Rokk_Krinn]

Actually you bring up a point that's been bothering me for awhile: what _did_ happen to Jakeem and Johnny? It's like they've been relegated to Character Limbo to chat with Animal Man and Mr. Zero.

[JayThor]

I was going to ask the same thing, but I thought I just missed an obvious exit for them. Guess I didn't. Hourman seems to have pushed some of the fresher characters(Cap, Jakeem, and the Hawks) out of the way with his rebirth.

[greg_wolf]

hey i've only been outta town for a couple of weeks and already someones trying to steal starman from me. well sorry lensnart i'm jack so feel free to pick the other starman.

i may have missed this discussion cause i havn't been online in 2 weeks but did everybody see justice league unlimited. i saw a bunch of jsa members including sand, atom smasher, johnny thunder, mr terrific and there may have been more. i just enjoyed seeing em there.

I don't think we missed anything. Last I heard of Jakeem was when Jay mentioned to Marvel that Jakeem was worried about Courtney and Marvel.

Actually I'm loving having the original Hourman around and wish we'd get more than just a couple quick panels with him in the issues. :)

[JayThor]

I don't mind him there, I just liked the new blood.

boneyard is able to confirm that there will be several members of the JSA in the next set (more than 2 this time). I can't wait for the new set!!

[Rokk_Krinn]

In fairness, Unleashed was actually pretty nice to the JSA fans. We got: Billy, Teth, Kendra and Hector. I'm really hoping Mid-Nite makes it into the set so I don't have to run another $500 Promote the Man contest. :)

[Beast2029]

Hey guys could you mak like a roster of members??
thanx:grin: :grin:

Even Fate was only the E and LE. I want a REV of Doc Midnite, Mr. Terrific, Wildcat, Powergirl(E for JLA), that are JSA on two out of three dials, if not all three. DOn't get me wrong, I like Fate and the rest, we just seem to get shafted on when a hero gets the JSA. Black Canary as a Rookie, Kendra as E, Jay and Starman not at all....

[Rokk_Krinn]

I'm not sure Terrific and, especially Mid-Nite, should have R versions on the JSA - they had careers prior to the group.

Oh, and Kendra was with the JLA - albeit briefly - during the Obsidian Age storyline. Carter was really miffed they asked for her instead of him (actually, originally they wanted Billy and Wisdom of Solomon told him "Not this time.").

[malreux]

Well New Comic Week finally hit rural Canada and did I get to see a lot of old friends. For someone that had a carefully packed away horde of comics featuring the "not really" sandman and his sidekicks brute and glob it was pretty cool to see them. I had all kinds of flashbacks to things like Sandman having to hitch a ride from Santa to head of mischief they had caused and such. Of course, that got somewhat overshadowed when my Legion showed up with some of my favorite Subs and Academy members...was DC shooting for nostalgia month or what?

[JayThor]

It was a great week for old school, that's for sure.

[supermangl1]

Sorry I've been waaaaay to busy to post much the past couple pf weeks. But I must say it's been a great couple of weeks too though. Went to Wizard World, meet the writer Geoff Johns, got a JSA Black Reign issued signed, very nice guy. So I just picked up my new issues, and JSA rocks again!! I have no real clue who Glob and Brute are, but I loved the issue, and the cover was completely awesome!

I hope that Marvel gets to come back to the JSA soon, I really liked him there. (The DC Panel at Chicago said that after the Cap. Marvel mini, he would be dutifully employed somewhere in the DCU, refering to Marvel. So heres to hoping he comes home to the JSA!)

I loved that Brainwave guest stared in the lastest issue too.

[JayThor]

Glad you're back GL, its been a while. Cool that you got to meet Geoff Johns. Check out the rumor mill for some updates.

[supermangl1]

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just wandered over to the rumor mill, and Green Lantern is happy! There is Mr. Freeze on the strongly rumored list!! Well he be useless, probably, will I play him often probably.

And underneth in the less likely Rumored section, the entire JSA team. It seems for sure we will get some more JSA members, he's to hoping Dr. Mid-Nite (the best medec ever, who can turn around and kick your butt!!) Power Girl, Mr. Terriffic (outwit) and all the rest! :laugh:

[Salakk]

hey evryone i just picked up the jsa tpb justice be done and am totally won over to jsa and since sand my fave char is already taken id like to be the ted knight starman an old fave

[supermangl1]

Hey Salakk, glad you found the joy of the JSA. The best written and most enjoyable comic printed today (imho...;) ) !

So everyone say hello to Salakk or should I say Ted Knight a.k.a. Starman!!!!!!!!!!!

Wear your title as symbol of honor!

As side question did anyone pick up JSA Strange Tales? I was too busy trying to find all of the Batman: War Games issues to try a new title, not enough funds. But I would love to hear how it was.

[JayThor]

I did, and it was very good. I look forward to the rest of the story! I also agree that the JSA is the best book going right now.

Welcome to our new (old) Starman!


Bring on the true GL, Alan Scott, to Heroclix!

[Salakk]

ive been reading a lot of other brand "x" titles shall we say and have just been so bored with them latelly so i asked my fave comic shop owner what his fave book out right now was and he said jsa

[NickFury15]

I picked up Strange Tales, and I thought it was pretty great.

[supermangl1]

Now I don't want to bash any other comic book companies, but I thought the X-book relaunch was suppose to make it easier to jump on and pick up the books. It seems to have gotten worse to my mind. Magento died, then he was Xorn, and now Exculiber seems to be saying he wasn't really Xorn, just swapped places? Huh???

Yet somehow the X-books sell very well each month. I say demand quality from your comic book companies! Is a quality story and at least decent art too hard to give? Thats why I love JSA, Teen Titans, Aquaman, and even Outsiders and now Batman. Good art and a solid story month in, month out.

Quality rules my friends. Rant over ;)

Now am I alone in getting impatient waiting for the next DC heroclix set?

[Salakk]

havent seen any new posts in a while so i thought id do a new one who is everyone's fave jsa character old faves of mine are jay,alan and ted and in justice be done i really got into the character of sand

[JayThor]

Alan and Captain Marvel are my favorites, but I really like the whole team.

[malreux]

Thats a hard one, it depends a bit on who is writing. For sheer love of the character, Jay and Ted would be tops of my list. I have really enjoyed the modern Mr Terrific, and I was always a fan of the old one...

[supermangl1]

Alan,Capt. Marvel, Ted, Dr. Mid-Nite, and Sand. I like Alan b/c he's the original GL.

Marvel b/c he is just cool and fun to read about.

Ted b/c he makes me laugh.

Mid-Nite b/c he is a unique character in the world of comics, a fighter, a highly trained medic, blind, and is a man of faith.

Sand b/c his powers seem the most unique to me out of the bunch.

Heh. I think we get to answer this pretty frequently but it's always fun. :)

Anyway, no question in my mind - heck, as older Realmers know I even made a failed attempt to get people into reading about the guy with a big money contest - is that my favourite is Dr. Mid-Nite...both of them. There are some real differences between the two and I urge people to learn about them. :)

[supermangl1]

WHA?!!?!?!?! JSA clan on the second page? No sir! I'm glad GL has come home to find this horrible injustice!!!!

I just read the latest issue of JSA, and I have to say it was just friggin awesome! I loved it. Everything about it, fast paced, action, drama, time travel, heart wrenching decisions. Good stuff guys! All three Hourman in the same page! Never saw that one coming.

Have anyone else seen the issues with the Alex Ross covers? Fantastic!

[Gentlegamer]

Doctor Fate here! Just wondering what the implications are if Rick ends up dying in the battle with Extant instead of his father . . .

[supermangl1]

I really don't see Rex letting Rick die, or Johns (because he's writing it) because that would cause a one major headache. Well at least in my mind it would. It be honest, Rex has been alot of fun to have around instead of depressed Rick. But I'm not sure, would that mess up the timeline and unravel the timestream like a ball of yawn, causing Metron to show up to talk way too much and be annoying like in every other time travel stroy arc???? I hope not!

Good to see you again Dr. Fate! How was talk like a pirate day?

[supermangl1]

ARGH!!!! It won't let me edit my above post! Anyhoo I was just going to clarify my statements and grammatical errors.

JSA FOR LIFE!

And I just thought about Dr. Fate talking like a pirate with the helm of nabu on......

" Don' ye be tellin' me wha' tu do Naboo! I be da' only Fate weilding Doc 'round here, shut up or I make te walk da plank! Arrrr...."

Golden helmet shining in the sun on the helm of a pirate ship, with a patch over one eye hole.......

[JayThor]

JSA just continues to have great storyline after great storyline. I can't wait to see how they deal with the Tylers. I do hope everyone is getting the Strange Tales with the 40's JSA. It is good, too.

[JayThor]

I meant Strange Adventures....

[supermangl1]

I haven't pick it up, due to the huge amount of money, War Games is sucking up, not to mention the $4.95 JLA secret files!! Wish I would have read the price on that one first!

But I do want to get the Strange Tales, heard it was quite good.

[supermangl1]

And I meant Strange Adventures as well....lol

[Gentlegamer]

Strange Adventures is superb! I am really liking the Golden Age feel!

Talk Like a Pirate Day was great!

Too quiet for 2 Long!! With the new set coming in February, and the theme leaning toward Legacy, we should be well represented, right?

Any thoughts or inside info?

[NickFury15]

I hate the clan being in here. I just don't see it as much anymore.

Hopefully we get a lot of JSA'ers in Legacy, JayThor. We can only hope.

[greg_wolf]

I WANT WILD CAT!!!!!!!!!! oops excuse that outburst. but seriously i hope for atleast 3 jsa'ers and i'll be happy. one can only hope, and dream.

[JayThor]

ME TOO!!! sorry, it's contagious. I think we will get Alan Scott, at least the KC, but I truly hope for the REV with JSA/Mystic/JSA. I think we get Power Girl, too, since she is a cary over from the early JSA, then Infinity, Inc, then JLA, then JSA again. She has lots of history, and is one of the more popular females not yet made.

My pick/guess:
Alan Scott
Power Girl
Wildcat

[supermangl1]

Agreed!!! If they make any of the JSAer's and don't give them the JSA team ability
*cough*cough* Jay Garrick and Starman *cough*cough*
I might just flip out. I really want more JSA people. Any of them. Even the reserve members. Actually that would rock! A set with three or four members and one reserve member.

I know we do this often, but if you could pick one reserve member of the JSA to be in Legacy who would it be?

My choice:
Uncle Sam - who wouldn't love to have Uncle Sam pick up a dumpster and crush Kobra with it?


You know what? It REALLY needs to be Feburary, so I can use birthday money to buy a truck load of boosters.

[JayThor]

Somebody order a Red Tornado with the pot/helmet for supermangl1.;)

I do want some of those, like the Ray, Iron Munroe, and the All-Star Squadron, plus former members like Star-Spangled Kid and Starman (Ted).

[supermangl1]

Jaythor, if they would make a Red Tornado with a pot helmet, I hereby promise to use her on every DC team I make!!


******At a tournament*****

Them - "So who did you bring?"
Me - "I couldn't decide. Either my JSA team w/ Ma Hunkle LE, Suicide Squad with Red Tornado w/ pot helmet, my JLA team led by Red Tornado, or my Despero under Red Tornado's guidance team. It's a hard choice!"

;)

[JayThor]

Cool! Hopefully that dream can come true for you! (and a really powerful Alan Scott for me!):)

[Gentlegamer]

Greetings, JSAers! I thought you all might like to see a team I constructed. It is JSA themed and uses some stand-ins for charaters not yet in clix form.

[JayThor]

Looks good! You covered all the bases well.

[supermangl1]

Thats some sweet substituting there GG. I really like that team. I might use that one for a friendly game sometime, minus the LE Carter Hall, since he has escaped my grasp for the time being.

[Salakk]

i really like your proxy team gg but using a v sandman for sand works great

[JayThor]

I must have a different Avalanche than you do, GG.;)

What did everyone think of the wrap-up to the Hourman situation?

[JayThor]

Merry Christmas to all my fellow JSA'ers!

We need to get this clan alive again. The preview of Alan Scott looks awesome! My clixing won't be complete without him.

[Gentlegamer]

Merry Christmas! We may not get Green Lantern, but we'll have KC Green Lantern!

[JayThor]

I may stick my mod (using a Dr. Strange figure, painted like the GL we all know and love), in the KC base until we get the real thing in REV.

[Gentlegamer]

I hereby call a meeting of the Justice Society! Our Chairman has just been previewed!

[Salakk]

the mr terrific is an awesome sculpt and will be a useful member of jsa teams i cant wait to use him now i just have to revise my jsa team id already built nah ill wait maybe more jsaers on the way the more the merrier

[Gentlegamer]

So we have Mr. Terrific. The highly likely JSA characters in Legacy are:

Star Girl
Hourman
Powergirl

Not too shabby!

[JayThor]

BOOHYAH!!!!! Finally some respect for the JSA! We got a plethora of powers with these members. And I might have to slip Alan in for the high point games...;)

[Gentlegamer]

Justice Society, check this out:

[JayThor]

Jade R is JSA! Probably the same with Obsidian. Mr. Terrific, Powergirl, Star, and now Jade and Obsidian! The JSA is gonna be the best TA to play in the game!!!

[JayThor]

And Wonder Woman!

[JayThor]

and Hourman!!

[supermangl1]

I agree JayThor, JSA with a Jade who should have TK, will become nigh unstoppable. With stunning blow feat card, beware the JSA! Er, uh........I mean villians beware!

[JayThor]

According to the ebay post, she does have TK. I hate the fact that we can't edit here....

[JayThor]

Well, time has passed, and we got much love in Legacy!

Alan Scott is truly awesome.
Wonder Woman is very good for her points
Power Girl R and V are JSA, and the V rocks!
Stargirl V is a good 2nd tier when used for smacking the support and other low point figures.
The other members we recieved I haven't got to use yet, but they look great, and very playable.

How did you all do with the JSA?

[Salakk]

i finally got a jay flash u after so long of waiting and trying yay

[Salakk]

havent seen anybody post anything new on here latelly but i was wondering what everybody thinks os alex ross covers for jsa i think theyre his best work yet

[JayThor]

I have enjoyed both the covers and stories lately. Beautiful.

[Salakk]

havent ready any of the stories yet im still catching up on the back issues im still horribly behind

[Greyson102]

Wow, I haven't seen anyone post here in awhile. What's up peoples? Who'h Who here and are you looking for any new members?

[JayThor]

For those of you who buy the TPB's of JSA, the ninth one is currently being solicited, so check with your comic book store!

[JayThor]

As this is the week of release of Fantastic Forces, I figured I would share my experience/pulls.

I opened a case for my store:
8 Uniques, no dupes; only missing Spiderman, Wolverine, Prof X, and Dr. Doom
4 LE's- Namor, Ben Grimm, Johnny Storm, Kurt Wagner

I bought most of the figures I wanted from this set, though I had no Tigras and no V Hawkeye.

I did get REV's of Iron Fist and Sub-Mariner, which I really wanted.

[Greyson102]

Wow, I got a few boxs and got Norman Osborn and Sue Storm. two rookies and lots of vets and a few Exp.
