Re-reading Infinite Crisis, I found something fun. Apparently, "Earth Eight" would have been home to all characters that debuted after Crisis on Infinite Earths. With that I mind I was wondering if anyone would be interested in doing an Earth Eight thread with me? (pic not related)Heroes:Breach (Tim Zanetti)Firestorm (Jason Rusch)Green Lantern (Kyle Rayner)Huntress (Helena Bertinelli)Magog (David Reid)Batman (Jean-Paul Valley)Batgirl (Cassandra Cain)Batwoman (Kate Kane)The Question (Renee) MontoyaBlue Bettle (Jaime Reyes)Saint WalkerBrother WarthBrother Hynn Sister Sercy Indigo-1MunkVillians:BaneDoomsdayHushProfessor PygAtroticusLarfleezeReligion of CrimeThe Reach anyone have characters to add, or ideas for storylines post here.
Dude.He was the first character to be created after Crisis.
Hmm, so, Kyle Rayner as the last green lantern, and host of Ion, Atroticus, Larfleeze, and Paralax (with Lyssa Drak as it's host) constitute his rouge gallery, The Indigo Tribe, Blue Lanterns, and the Darkstars as his allies, The Reach, and Lady Styx completing this universe's space landscape, and of course Lobo.
Younger members of the JSA, like Cyclone, and Stargirl.
You know, I might even enjoy this universe better than the main DCU.
>Batman (Jean-Paul Valley)We all know how that went.....
I can see this world's justice league equivalent, (if it even has one) being made up of Steel, Magog, Huntress, Booster Gold, Firestrom, and Kyle Rayner. Steel/Magog/Huntress would be this world's equivilent of the Superman/Batman/Wonderwoman Triad.
Shit, double post. Mods, please delete one of them.
>>21322 What better way to make this universe interesting?
>>21333It'd make more sense to use Kate rather than Helena, especially given Kate and Magog's shared military background.Some other heroes worth noting:- Robin (Damian Wayne, Tim Drake)- Black Alice (Lori Zechlin)- Misfit- Nitewing (Tad Ryerstad)- Bulleteer (Alix Harrower)- Misty Kilgore- The Threeboot LOSH
>>21440 But how can we have a Daimen Wayne if there's no Bruce Wayne?
>>21401 I guess, since there isn't an original batman, we need one to inspire the other bat characters. So at first he's Azreal, part of a cult, given cybernetic armor that keeps him brain washed, however something goes wrong and he gets trapped in a cave or something, a blow to the head plus the sensory deprivation undoes the brain washing, and he swears revenge on the cult for ruining his life. Inspired by the creatures of the cave he rebuilds his armor into a bat like motif, and takes his revenge on the cult. But after he kills them all he finds a lack of propose, until he witnesses a woman mugged, raped and murdered in front of him. This inspires him to his new purpose, vigilante. Kinda an asspull, but it works more or less.
>>21440 Hmm, since two of it's leaders come from military background I could see it being called the "Justice Battalion" like in Kingdom Come. >>21704 Kyle Rayner was your traditional "starving artist" making little to no money off his paintings and living in a bad neighborhood. All that changed the day he met a small blue man who was dieing in a back alley. Kyle took him back to his apartment, hoping to nurse him back to health, but he was beyond help. As he died, the man told him that he was the last of his kind, that once his race, known though out known space as the guardians of the universe headed the Green Lantern Corp, an interstellar peace keeping and police force made up of sentients from every known galaxy. He tells Kyle how the "war of light" has devastated the corps and his race, and how with the corps extinguished, nothing can stand in the way of Earth falling to the Fear Creature Parallax, or the Rage Demon Atroticus, or even Larfleeze, Lord of Greed. The strange blue man then dies, but as he breathes his last breath, Kyle apartment is flooded with green light. A strange whale like creature exits the alien's boy, and enters Kyle. Kyle finds himself overcome with a raw force of willpower he never felt before, and with this gift, he swears to re-build the corps, find allies among the stars, and protect earth from the evil creatures the dead alien told him about. On that day, Kyle became the Green Lantern.
I like the idea of Kate Kane being this universe's version of "Batman."
>>21733 The way I saw it, she'd be Wonderwoman, Steel would be Superman, and Magog would be Batman.
OP here. I'm glad to see some people where interested.
Bump.
>>21440Would Damian count, since he was created AFTER Infinite Crisis?
>>24472 How could he without a bruce wayne?
>>24472Technically he existed before, what with Son of Demon and all that.
>>21289Wasn't Kyle supposed to eventually recreate the GLC with Ganthet and John Stewart? I think I heard something about Donna joining them as well.Instead of a Sinestro Corps, the main enemies would be the controllers.
>>21726I like this. Also, would he still become bros with Wally and Connor?Also, Jack Knight.
How about this, everything released by DC post-crisis that was awesome, but not canon, like for example Sandman, are actually a major part of this universe.
