    ^^^So dang true!

    One more for the Hell of it.
    A Justice League Year One inspired line up…:




    CAPTAIN COMET (Green Lantern)
    The earth born space guy. No GL Ring, but CC has a wide array of mental and physical abilities that make him pretty formidable. And a raygun.

    TURBINE (The Flash)
    A Tuskegee Airman who disappeared into the Speed Force in the past and reappeared in the present w. cyclone based superspeed.

    SILENCER (Black Canary)
    An ex-assassin highly trained in MA and weapons use. She has a sound based superpower, able to create a field of total silence.

    KORYAK (Aquaman)
    He’s Aquaman’s illegitimate child, and has all the requisite Atlantean powers to include hydrokinesis. He actually prefers to spend his time on land, though.

    JEMM SON OF SATURN (Martian Manhunter)
    Alien Royalty by birth, philosopher by choice, and warrior by circumstance, he’s the least normal looking member of the team.

    Timothy Hunter from THE BOOKS OF MAGIC. Maybe just call him Hunter cause it sounds cool.
    Damian Wayne- as either Robin or Batman.
    Saturn Girl from the Legion of Super-heroes.
    Mister Terrific -Michael Holt
    Green Lantern Alan Scott
    The Flash-Bart Allen
    Superwoman -Lana Lang

    So, I got a magic user, a Bat family character, a telepath, a tech genius, an energy wielder, a super-speedster and a Super person.
    So, in honor of the OP:

    going mostly Golden Age with a couple exceptions:

    SHAZAM! (Freddy Freeman) for the flying brick + some extra magic wallop. unlike Billy and Mary, Fred was never in the JL

    SANDMAN for the street-level mystery man who's paranoia tells him to keep a close eye on these people

    LIBERTY BELLE (Libby Lawrence) hoping this is obvious enough

    STARMAN (Prince Gavyn) an alien marooned on earth with powerful energy weapons at his disposal

    QUICKSILVER (Max Mercury) human manifestation of a mysterio0us extra-dimensional energy, which he refers to as "the speed force"

    J'EMM, SON OF SATURN sorry Riv, but J'emm was always in the back of my mind as a stand-in for J'onn as well, and I'm not changing g it just because you also used him lol

    TSUNAMI mysterious, somewhat abrasive, water-breathing/hydro-kinetic heroine, from Japan (bet y'all forgot about her lol)

    as the original seven... later on, others could be added, such as:

    PHANTOM LADY (Sandra Knight) fierce hand-to-hand combatant, with umbra-kinetic abilities she doesn't fully understand yet...

    BLACK CONDOR (John Trujillo) standing corrected on a previous statement, John is a winged warrior with aerokinetic abilities + a newly discovered "sonic scream"*

    DOLLMAN (Lester Colt) size-reducer with a military background

    ZATARA (Giovanni Zatara) the OG top-hat sorcerer

    FIREBRAND (Janet Fals) pyrokineic who fights literally to remain alive

    MEKANIQUE android with phasing, enhanced senses, flight + electron- and neutron-manipulation

    SHIFT Metamorpho and Element Woman have been in the JL, but Shift - who has the same elemental, stretching and shape-shifting abilities - has not!

    ETRIGAN so instead of finding an archer to stand in for Oliver Queen, I tried to think of another character with a talent for pissing off their team-mates... and I'm betting the constant rhyming, coupled with the uncomfortable observations it usually contains, would have a similar effect on the others. yes, I know Jason Blood joined during "The Obsidian Age", but that was Jason stuck in human form. this is Etrigan with no host at all, just to clarify. his unfiltered, almost-autistic tendency to constantly tell it like it is with no sugarcoating, would be the reality check none of them want, but a few of them probably need nonetheless

    if anyone wants to do up a photo for this, be my guest!

    * - I've always found it kind of dumb that aero-kinetic characters don't also have audio-kinesis by default - sound/audio is just air being moved at specific frequencies, so aero-kinetics should have no issues with this!

    ^^^Technically Jason Blood was a JLA member at one point, but that’s just it, it was Jason and not Etrigan. I don’t think the Demon actually appeared during Jason’s time on the team. I could be wrong. It’s why I didn’t use him (Etrigan) in an earlier build, I didn’t want to get nitpicked, so I used Blue Devil and got dinged anyway!

    ^^^Marvel has a character named Wind Dancer who can use her aerokinesis to amplify small vibrations in the air, and eavesdrop on faraway conversations which I thought was pretty cool when first found out.

    that's why added this, to refute the nitpickers (quoting myself): "yes, I know Jason Blood joined during "The Obsidian Age", but that was Jason stuck in human form." - as in, I'm pretty sure it was a plot point that he could NOT summon Etrigan during that arc. don't quote me on that tho, I'd have to re-read

    that's a start! hopefully more will follow suit, and/or be retconned to be capable of both things. Most Flashes already do a bit of both and are not even considered aero- or audio-kinetic... I could go on but you get the idea

    When writers trade world shaking events for character interaction, that’s when I start losing interest.

    ^^^Nah, I just meant us here on the board, snatching characters for team builds; they’re all fair game!

    ^^^yeah, if the freaking Flashes can do it, how can characters who directly affect the medium sound travels on NOT do it?

    it's no easy feat to have both in equally compelling measures, that's for sure

    gotcha. that's kind of the beauty of these characters tho - regardless of what gets published, one's own imagination knows no limits

    excellent. it would take me some digging to re-read and verify lol

    ^^^I distinctly remember doing a build not long after I got here, and someone replied saying I couldn’t use a character because of what their current status was in-continuity.

    TBC it wasn’t what the person was saying that made me SMH, it was the snarky way he said it; mindful of not getting banned from a site I’d only just joined I let it go w. something along the lines of “you know these are all in fun, right”?

    Dont think we ever spoke again.
