    We don’t know, but it seems unlikely. As you alluded to, Marvel released six volumes of Marvel Masterworks “Golden Age Captain America” and then stopped that line. The two Golden Age Cap omnis...

    I’d probably stop short of calling him a hard-ass, but right around the late ‘90s/early ‘00s, some writers started contrasting Alan and Jay by establishing Jay as a bit more lighthearted and...

    I assume the thinking is that without knowing how many issues MacKay will write of VoMK, it’s impossible to know if it’ll be long enough to justify an omni, potentially stranding the end of his run....

    No one knows for sure, but if it’s like the Jason Aaron Thor omnis or the Donny Cates Venom omni, they’ll contain the main Devil’s Reign storyline, but only tie-ins that directly impact the story.

    I like that they kept the detail that Jay was smoking when he got his powers (later retellings tend to edit that detail out), though obviously now it’s no longer the REASON he got his powers.

    Moreso than… Jade? ;)

    (I know, I know, Jade is Jenny’s codename, not her real name.)

    I pointed this out in the Alan Scott thread, but Courtney’s phrasing when talking about Harlequin’s son is...
  7. After reading this month’s issue of JSA, I...

    After reading this month’s issue of JSA, I suspect it’s not in continuity any longer. Stargirl says, “Michael Mayne. Son of the original Harlequin.” Not “Alan’s wife, the original Harlequin.” Not...

    Very true, although I doubt DC is looking to remind us of Alan’s two previous forays in that vein. ;)

    But it would make sense as, essentially, the Post-Flashpoint version of...

    I don’t claim this is exhaustive, it’s just the issues of which I’m aware:

    WF3: World’s Finest Three 1-2 (First Robin/Superboy)
    Robin Plus Impulse 1 (First Robin/Impulse)
    Superboy and the Ravers...

    I don’t have anything quite like that, no. Best I could do is give you is my YJ reading order, including pre-YJ team-ups between the characters, and with YJ-related appearances in their solo books. I...

    Along with that, they’ll also need Birds of Prey #104-08, selected pages from #109 (death of a character), and ideally selected pages from Checkmate (v2) #18-20 and the Salvation Run mini. If that’s...
  12. Yeah, for sure. These things go in cycles, and...

    Yeah, for sure. These things go in cycles, and there are plenty of writers who grew up with Tim and Steph as a couple. I wouldn’t count on it happening soon — DC won’t want to be seen as immediately...

    Like andersonh1 said, it really varied. They weren’t big on feats back in those days, so he was basically as fast as any given story required. He didn’t face a super-speed adversary until his very...
  14. Not according to the actual comics, no....

    Not according to the actual comics, no. (Pre-Flashpoint, at least.) Jay hasn’t had an ongoing in decades, so he doesn’t get as many “feats,” but he was generally depicted in the Post-Crisis years as...
  15. Uh… are they? Jay’s older now, obviously, but...

    Uh… are they? Jay’s older now, obviously, but back in the Golden Age he could time travel with precision just by running fast along a beach (without even needing a treadmill). In “The Return of Barry...
  16. Yeah. We don’t really know much yet about the...

    Yeah. We don’t really know much yet about the status of the Post-Flashpoint version of Alan’s origin.

    Pre-Crisis, Green Lantern (v2) #111-12 tied Alan’s origin to that of the Earth-1 Green...

    I could be wrong, but I think the last time Molly was truly pivotal to a plot was in Underworld Unleashed - Hell’s Sentinel, when she sold her soul to Neron to regain her youth (because the Starheart...

    We’re comic fans — let’s not pretend we can’t grasp the complexities of “the first two versions of this character were straight, then the company changed publishing strategies multiple times and the...

    Well, no, it’s not the “original” Alan Scott — the original Alan Scott was straight. (Or as straight as a fictional character can be, anyway.) But also, what does “original” even mean when a company...
  20. To be fair, that was the point. In his origin...

    To be fair, that was the point. In his origin story, Alan specifically says, “I must have a costume that is so bizarre that once I am seen I will never be forgotten!”

    Mission accomplished. ;)

    I assume because Belle and BC both have children who carried on their identities (as did WW for a while, not sure if that’s still canon or not), and Hawkgirl is her own legacy character, what with...

    He was also the one who noticed how close Stargirl and Captain Marvel were getting, and took it on himself to have a stern chat with the Big Red Cheese about their age difference.
  23. To be fair, I don’t know that anyone else is...

    To be fair, I don’t know that anyone else is taking that name change very seriously. “Karen Starr” wasn’t foisted on PG, she chose it herself, based on her actual name of “Kara.” It’s the name she...

    I seem to remember there was a passing mention of her in one of the early Johns-written Teen Titans issues, something about her now attending Cissie’s boarding school or something. Very much a “I...

    Greta’s/Suzie’s adoptive parents were both shown in Young Justice, but uh… neither of them was in a good place at the end of YJ.

    If memory serves, her mother was committed to an asylum and was...
