Under used DC characters and how to use/revamp them.

[9th.]

Black Lightning, you could basically make this into a family book like the Fantastic Four. He has a whole legacy built in that he doesn't have to borrow from anyone. They may not be tackling cosmic entities but there's a lot you can do there.

Agreed. A book like that could be pretty amazing.
It’s one reason I didn’t/haven’t gotten into the CW show. It’s just so...dull. I get having drama in a story but man, when it’s all you have then, it just loses steam.

I like the show more for Anissa and Jennifer than Jefferson.

Use her like She Hulk or Daredevil. Any time a legal case comes up their involved

The one thing I love about Marvel is that they always reuse their characters in certain niches more so than DC. There's only like 2 doctors the heroes go to for healing, two lawyers they depend on for court cases and etc. Making Kate the lawyer for everything Superheroes should've been obvious.

The CRISIS tie in was the first full ep. I watched since S1 and my lord was it awful. I wanted to scratch my own eyes out. Such great characters and I have no interest in seeing them.

I love the Black Lightning TV show. It's a slow burn but gets exciting at the right time.

[Thor-Ul]

Her powers sound similar to Animal Mans.

Have Vixen and Animal man ever met?

They have a big adventure in the Justice League of McDuffy. I mean, a superhero traveling to other universe and fighting against a god with meta references action adventure. Not the other kind of adventure.

My pick for underrated charecter is Vibe. I liked how he worked in the New52, as watcher of parallel universes. I like that version.
Not the break dancer version. Breakdance is more dead than disco.

Klarion the Witch Boy as a kind of Invader Zim with Etrigan The Demon as his uncle / reluctant mentor.

I don't think that Etrigan is suited for a mentor role...

Jason Blood might be better suited for the mentor role while Etrigan is more of an assistant. Etrigan could assist Jason in mentoring him but not actively caring/fretting over Klarion like Jason would be.

Jason Blood/Etrigan feels suited for your average occult detective book and Jason/Etrigan lends themselves to a buddy cop/mismatched partner dynamic.

I doubt that Jason Blood and Etrigan usually work against each other and not with each other, Etrigan is not exactly a good guy and for the most part he doesn't even plays nice with other bad guys (and Klarion is in his original Version also pretty evil).

Before this fades away pushed to the bottom...

I'd make take The Creeper something so much more.
Instead of patterning some weird spidey joker hybrid.

I'd make him a horror book Where he's In a blade wolverine ghost rider type place.
Hes playing the doctor jekyll Mr. Hyde game in all his incarnations so it's trivial to take the best stories of that genre and retell them as he faces all kinds of insane Vertigo style monsters and challenges.

[scary harpy]

Ralph Dibney needs to focus less on superheroics and more pn mysteries. I'd love a 6 issue Agatha Christie style murder mystery with Ralph as the Detective figure

That would be awesome.
His powers should be used in low key ways, too, where you almost forget he has them, as he’s more showing us his deductive skills.

I have him lose his stretching power.

He still have his durability and agility. He be the world's most amazing contortionist. But he wouldn't stretch like Plastic Man.

He would then be a more street level hero.

I love the idea of Agatha Christie type mysteries.

[manwhohaseverything]

I want steel to be not tied to giant iron hunk of junk. I would make steel into generator rex type hero. But instead of, his body being inhabited by nanite, it will be carbon based single cell life forms. John henry's main diet will be metal, especially steel due to this. The organisms consume and covert the metal john eats into some sort of organic armor strong as steel and various weapons.

Klarion's first appearance is as Jason's "nephew" (it's a lie) in The Demon comic from Kirby himself!
