I’ds of March
The I’ds of March 2011
The concept is this – I tell you things that I’d have done in certain comics!! But don’t worry, I’m not talking about simple 20/20 hindsight things like pick a famous bad storyline and just say, “I wouldn’t have done that.” No, I mean more like tweaks and nudges, stuff like that. You can check [...]

Hey, Now Cronin Can Put Songbird In The Avengers!
By buying a copy of Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2, which she will be appearing in. Gaming blog Kotaku points out this point from the game’s blog, where the developers talk about translating her from the page to the game. They talk about how they used Marko Djurdjevic’s Thunderbolts covers as inspiration for her look and [...]
Joe’d…

I’d not date other comic fans. Do we really need an extra thousand things to argue about? I’ll stick with where to eat and whose parents are crazier. I don’t need to yell about the relative merits of Joe Matt vs. Johnny Ryan. I’d have saved my anti-Crisis-on-Infinite-Earths Piece Seriously, I can’t find that anywhere. [...]
I’d Have a Seven Soldier Join the Justice League
On top of Zatanna, I’d like to add one more of the Seven Soldiers join the Justice League. Probably Shining Knight or Shiloh Norman, but Frankenstein might be interesting, too. Let’s not let these good characters go to waste! So I’d add a Seven Soldier to the Justice League.
I’d Bring Alex Wilder Back
I think the guy is just too fascinating of a character to have him permanently be stuck in that white void dimension he currently is in. Either as a redeemed villain or as a super-villain in training, he’s such a great character that I’d bring him back.
I’d Find Some Regular Role for Amanda Waller
Is there seriously not a single book where Amanda Waller couldn’t pop up in on a regular basis? Justice League liaison? I dunno, there just has to be some role out there for one of the best new characters of the 1980s. I’d find some regular role in the DC Universe for Amanda Waller.
I’d Bring the Original Human Torch Back
Isn’t it weird that he’s not around? I’m figuring Brubaker actually will eventually get around to bringing him back (I hope), but really, the guy’s an android! If there ever was a guy who shouldn’t be able to just die, this would be the guy! Just have someone find the remnants of his body after [...]
I’d Have Apollo an Official Analogue of Superman
Remember when they had that Countdown: Arena mini-series where different variations of each character from different Earths of the Multiverse fought each other? In that series, Apollo (of the Authority) was a variation of…the Ray??!?!? I’d make Apollo what he should be – an official analogue of Superman.
I’d Have Rogue Re-Join the X-Men
It’s so odd to me that Rogue is not on the X-Men. She’s one of the most famous members of the team, the team does not exactly have a ton of famous female members left (basically Storm and Emma Frost), so why keep off Rogue, who is a good character, to boot! So I’d put [...]
I’d Have Let Hawkman and Hawkgirl Die
The whole point of Grant Morrison having the Hawks die in Final Crisis #7 was that they would resurrect, and then the next writers to use the characters could have them in whatever incarnation of the Hawks that they’d like to use (a blank slate, if you would). So I’d have gone along with that [...]
I’d Make Phyla-Vell Captain Marvel
Wendell is back, so he should get the name Quasar back, so it would be nice to see her graduate then to the name Csptain Marvel!
I’d Give Nancy Woods a Unique Personality
Nancy Woods is the girlfriend of Chuck in the Archie Comics. Chuck is an interesting character, but Nancy is as bland as bland can be. Not only is she bland, but every time a writer tries to give her some sort of unique personality, the next writer forgets about it. So I’d give Nancy a [...]
