New Year, New Series, New Characters, and New Teammates. It's a great time to be a JSA fan in the New Golden Age

We really don't know much about that "New Characters" and "New Teammates" part yet, do we?

Happy New Year to the worlds first Superhero team !

I'm liking the recent series so I'm hoping they get a bigger profile. Gunn should mix Robinson's Earth 2 and John's run in a blender for the new DCEU.

The JSA feels like a better example of DC's legacy than the big 7 do. Plus I thought it was weird they got rebooted in the new 52. Having them be the old guard for the big 7 to live up to makes sense.

I mean the kids from Lost Children and all the time displaced from New Golden Age are New Characters and Khalid Nassour is technically a new teammate right? Because prior to Dark Crisis he was just Justice League Dark.

Plus I think it's kind of a given that Judy Garrick is making it off the Childminder island and going to be joining her dad for adventures. Johns teased it in New Golden Age and the first issue of JSA.

I feel like she could work better in an Earth-2 AU like environment where like she could be the successor to Jay as opposed to a mainline universe where Barry Allen is the next Flash.

I don’t think Judy matters in terms of Jay having a successor, because that’s kind of what the entire flash family was too him and how he would also hang out with Wally and the kids who came after (Bart, Jessie, Iris, and Jai)

I think she’s more about giving Jay something that he’s never had before, the actual chance to be a real dad and having that connection in his life. She’s more about what it means to him personally then his superhero legacy.

Is issue 2 of JSA not supposed to be out this week?

Next week, this weeks Stargirl. It furthers the plots from New Golden Age but its not the main JSA.

Always cool how an adaptation can bring back a long disused character

In this case Beth and Yolanda

[Bruce Wayne]

Yolanda never deserved to be turned into cannon fodder for a dumb Eclipso crossover.

I didn't think it was a "crossover".
If I remember correctly, it was in Eclipso's own book and didn't tie in to any other on-going titles.

I'm looking forward to meeting them both.

Something funny to think about, haven't seen Stargirl but apparently it popularized a Rick Tyler/Beth ship which is amusing knowing that Rick here is currently married to Jesse Quick
