If Cap were pushed as much as Bats

[Riv86672]

Technically Patriot would be better suited for Batwing, especially the second Batwing as Eli was related to a former Captain America and Luke is Lucious Fox's son.

So, drop the Josiah X book?
I can’t see him as a Robin stand in...

[Riv86672]

I know we had American Dream for Batwoman, but a book led by Sharon Carter doing some cool spy stuff on the side could all be an option.

She’d be kicking butt in the Daughters of Liberty book, which would cover the cool spy stuff!

I see how you connected, but I still prefer Josiah X. When you look at the facts. One he's also connected to a previous Captain America. Two, he has the superior ability and skill set over Eli. In both versions of Batwing, it was a grown man.

Nice idea for a thread.

I kinda equate Jack Munroe/Nomad to Redhood/Outlaw and USAgent to Azrael.

[HipHopAvenger]

That’d be cool idea I’d also throw in Ian Rogers, Ellie Rogers, Jet Black in the mix

^^^Agreed. I’m going to stick w. the first version, thanks for weighing in.

^^^I can see the connection too. I really do think he and Azrael have some strong parallels though.

Tangential to the question of supporting cast. Batman has sometimes been characterized as having supporting engineers and sometimes been cast as being an uber-inventor. Cap's history and potential capabilities could support either (I've occasionally thought writers have not done enough with what the serum should have done for his intellect).

So, if we're Batman-izing Cap, what kind of toys should be have, and who should make them?

[HipHopAvenger]

Bring back US Avengers led by Captain America
Also throw in Battlestar, Texas Twister and Shooting Star

There might be something to work w. there, thanks!

I think we’ve pretty much milked all the possible Bat books.

I just have a last one.
Spinning off from Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes (the best Avengers cartoon by far), Cap gets his own solo cartoon, which Marvel Will then adapt into a comic, ala The Batman Adventures.

Maybe some sort of folding into the Batman Beyond-verse. The various next-gen, with Ellie and Jet serving as the angel/devil sisters on Ian's shoulder.

I just had a vision of many Captain America related What If specials (or in Batman’s case Elseworlds)!

Okay, now for the villains

Red Skull -Joker
Baron Strucker -Ra's Al Ghul
Baron Zemo -Two-Face
Crossbones -Bane
Sin -Harley Quinn
Primus -Clayface

^^^Cool! We used Sin as Harley, which would of course make Red Skull Cap’s Joker expie.

You made me think though, if Marvel was really milking Cap to Batman levels, it wouldn’t be too long till we had an uneeded company event that would give us...

...The Captain Who Grins!

...The Captain Who Smiles!

I was thinking we could to better than the captain who smiles. But sigh... Its "Grins"

The Captain Who grins. No real way around that one, is there. Cool thread but holy shit does it show the batverse really is way more pushed than I realized. Jeez.


EDIT:
Someone suggested that Cap needs toys maybe, but It occurs to me that Bats has something we've not emulated yet...

"Gotham"
Cap to get that push needs a "Gotham" I don't know how to make it yet my mind is churning on a lot of things but... if that can happen. Its a big part of the push.
