    Entirely true. But Im just figuring, no one seems to have a good hook for the Hawks right now. Or at least a hook that DC has enough faith in to invest. But if Hawkgirl proves popular on the tv show, it might highlight a path for the comics. Im not looking for synergy so much as hoping that the tv guys have a good idea the comics can be inspired by, because the comic guys obviously dont have a clue right now.

    As for the discussion about teams, I think either option (segregating the power levels or mixing them) works, but they work for different things. The Birds of Prey were typically street level espionage stories because their roster gravitated towards that kind of narrative. Marvel's upcoming Ultimates is on the other end of the spectrum (the weakest member is the Black Panther) and we'll never see them dealing with common drug dealers. The League is much more varied and therefore able to tell stories of any kind. And it all works out pretty well. Any team book has to decide what kind of story they're going to tell and more importantly, what kind of story they're going to avoid, and build a roster around that.

    Raven is sort of a weird character in this regard. Her powerset is far more subtle than most and doesnt lend itself well to big giant supervillain battles. But she's still quite powerful. She could work well on a street level team (where she'd quite possibly be the powerhouse) but could also work on a cosmic level one too (where she'd be more for utility). Personally I'd like to see her in a JLD type book where her creepy factor can really be cranked up.

    Publishers shouldn't have to wait on films and shows in order to do something with a character, in my opinion of course.

    Depends on who you are talking about. Even with a film or shows SOMEONE will find an excuse to not try.


    2 guest spots on cartoon shows, toys, video game appearances and a online episode and where is Vixen?

    DC dropped the ball her way too many times. It's obvious that they don't care about the character at all. Not even a mini in 2016, but they give one to Sugar and Spike. Really? Poor Vixen.

    You are right about this, Raven is a sort of jack of all trades regarding to where she can be and what stories can be told with her, it all depends on how powerful any writer decides to write her. Her normal maybe slightly nerfed self could easily fit onto something like BoP, where she could simply be the close-range transport and interrogator. Play into the troubled mystic aspect and she'd be a better fit on the initial JLD than Zatanna was. Play around with some of her more powerful displays and she could fit onto the League as well.

    I biggest problem right now however seems to be her age. The other teams sort of stick with a certain age-bracket and 16-whatever year olds dont seem to fit onto any of them. (might be easy to fix with her time in the Underrealm, simply making her look younger than she might be.)

    So, you know EVERY SINGLE COMIC BOOK TITLE DC will be releasing in the next 14 months?

    Really, isn't saying "not even a mini in 2016" when it's still 2015 seems a bit much. I have no idea if she may get a mini-series or even a regular on-going series or not, but how do you know she won't?

    I'll add Fire/Ice joint book and the obligatory Manhunter ongoing. I'd also read Oracle (Babs), Huntress (Helena), Hawkwoman/girl, Mera, Lois Lane, Zinda (Blackhawk), Power Girl, Firehawk (from Batwoman), Spoiler, Jessie Quick, Star Saphire. DC has so many great, underused female characters.
    "Has Sariel summoned you here, Azrael? Have you come to witness the miracle of your brethren arriving on Earth?"

    "I WILL MIX THE ASHES OF YOUR BONES WITH SALT AND USE THEM TO ENSURE THE EARTH THE TEMPLARS TILLED NEVER BEARS FRUIT AGAIN!"

    "*sigh* I hoped it was for the miracle."

    Dan Watters' Azrael was incredible, a constant delight and perhaps too good for this world (but not the Forth). For the love of St. Dumas, DC, give us more!!!

    it's honestly baffling that Vixen doesn't have an ongoing and hasn't ever had one.

    If you don't like what I say, you can easily block or ignore me. Just lose the attitude. If they ever have plans for her, then so be it. I'll be happy. But I'm not holding my breath.

    Zatanna

    I'm surprised that Supergirl doesn't have her own relaunched ongoing already given the television show (like they launched a couple of Gotham... titles around the release of Gotham, Gotham by Midnight, Gotham by Midnight etc) but would love these. Also outside the poll, Mera would be a pretty awesome addition to the book as well.

    I believe there's been talk that a Digital First Supergirl book may be getting launched soon.

    I picked Batwoman, Katana, Poison Ivy, Raven, Supergirl, Vixen, and Zatanna. Of the choices, these characters are ones I both know the most about and who seem to be popular enough to support their own book. I just don't know enough about the others to vote for them.

    For Batwoman specifically, I'd love it if she's still in 'Tec by #1000, and then she gets a solo that spins off from that.
    Mega fan of: Helena Bertinelli (pre-52), Batwoman, Birds of Prey, Guardians of the Galaxy, Secret Six
    Fan of: Batman, Cassandra Cain, Wonder Woman, Silk, Stephanie Brown, Captain America, Hellcat, Renee Montoya, Gotham Central, King Shark
    Quasi-Fan of: Aquaman, Midnighter, Superman, Catwoman, Nightwing, Green Arrow, Squadron Supreme, Red Hood

    Other likes: Low, Hush, Arkham Asylum: ASHoSE, Watchmen, A-Force, Bombshells, Grayson, Unfollow
