Subj: Justice League United-related Coincidence Posted: Wed Feb 05, 2014 at 08:46:28 pm EST (Viewed 18 times) | ||||
I'm still excited about the new Justice League United (aka Justice League of Canada). However, many of the members pretty much have counterparts with the Avengers. Here's the case in point: Adam Strange=Hank Pym Both are scientific geniuses that leave the swashbuckling to their wives. Hawkman=Falcon Both are winged wonders. Green Arrow=Hawkeye Both are archers. Animal Man=Beast or Tigra Both have animal-like powers. Martian Manhunter=Hulk Both are green-skinned brawlers. Stargirl=Captain America Both wear stars on their uniforms and carry a weapon. Supergirl=Ms. Marvel Both are alien-endowed superwomen. I didn't forget about the new First Nations girl, but I couldn't figure out her Avengers counterpart. Also, someone wrote on Jeff Lemire's Twitter asking if the Atom (preferably Ray Palmer) is going to join Justice League United. Jeff replied with the poster to read Future's End for the answer to the Ray Palmer scenario. I, for one, would like to see the Atom join the JLU in the near future (possibly around June or July). Now, on to the awkward part, we know Catwoman will be returning to her shady past, but what's going to happen to Katana, Vibe, and Simon Baz? My predictions: Katana---she'll be in Green Arrow's Outsiders or back in the Birds of Prey (I'd like to see Black Canary join the JLU pretty soon as well). Vibe---I'm not too sure where he will pop up or his fate. I never liked Vibe, especially the 80s one. Simon Baz---I was hoping to see him in the JLU, but he could take Hal's place in the regular Justice League. | ||||
