    That wouldn't work timeline wise. Terry Sloane died before had his accident and Micheal Holt only became Mr. Terrific years after it.

    I’m kind of surprised that Dark Multiverse title hasn’t done it yet but “What if Parallax Hal succeeded during Zero Hour?”

    that's assuming you are using pre-Flashpoint Vic's origin which has been long overshadowed by his current origin and is unlikely to ever be used again; especially since (as people keep forgetting) we're still in the post-Flashpoint world just with pre-Flashpoint elements reintroduced and remembered. also, it's a What If, the timeline doesn't really matter considering you can explain that away in any number of ways. Holt became Mr. Terrific earlier, Vic's accident happened later, Holt took him on before he became Mr. Terrific, etc.
    THE SIGNAL (Duke Thomas) is DC's secret shonen protagonist so I made him a fandom wiki

    also, check out "The Signal Tape" a Duke Thomas fan project.

    currently following:
    • DC: Red Hood: The Hill
    • Marvel: TBD
    • Manga (Shonen/Seinen): One Piece, My Hero, Dandadan, Jujutsu Kaisen, Kaiju No. 8, Reincarnation of The Veteran Soldier, Oblivion Rouge, ORDEAL, The Breaker: Eternal Force

    -What if Kyle Rayner joined the Violet Lanterns instead of the Green Lanterns? This goes along with the 'What if the Rainbow Corps existed during Emerald Twilight?'.

    -What if Dick Grayson died instead of Jason Todd?

    -What if the JSA never retired in 1955 and instead took over the world?

    -What if Zatara failed to save his daughter in the seance in Swamp Thing and Zatanna died for real?

    -What if Swamp Thing absorbed the consciousness of someone besides Alec Holland? Like Constantine, Peacemaker or another character.

    -What if the JSA were active when the JL members were kids and they ended up rescruting a teen Kal-El and Bruce Wayne on to their teams?

    What If? - Captain Boomerang killed Tim Drake instead of Jack?
    What If? - Dan Didio DIDN'T become EiC??

    It looks to me like Teen Titans Academy made NTT (including Vic's origin) canon again. But even if you go with New52 Vic would as a founding member of the JL likely precede Mr. Terrific I think (not really sure the New 52 timeline is a mess).

    Ok how I understand a "What If" is that you go back to a previous point in the continuity and look how it went when things turned out differently, and not that you make timeline changes like that.

    -What if Jim Gordon and Barbara Gordon's roles in 'The Killing Joke' were switched? (I know they kind of did this in Zero Hour.)

    -What if Pre Crisis Helena Wayne, Earth 2 Dick Grayson and Power Girl retained their memories of their Pre Crisis universe and lived as refugees on Post Crisis Earth?

    -What if Bruce Wayne adopted Roy Harper and Oliver Queen adopted Dick Grayson?

    -What if Black Canary was the one who got permanently crippled and not Barbara Gordon?

    -What if Superman's rocket crash landed on Themyscira?

    -What if Wonder Woman went to Man's World during the 1600's Salem Witch Trials?

    -What if Wonder Woman went to Man's World during the Wild West era?

    Here's a good one. What if Mister Terrific had lived? His death was the first comic book death I've witnessed when I first got into comics.
