ISIS (Adrianna Tomaz)



I wouldn't mind seeing more of her...especially if they give her a rebirth and align her more like her TV comic version.

Baron Winter - loved the Night Force series! There are a lot of possibilities with this character. Maybe as the overseer / leader of a new type of Outsiders book? Just a very interesting character to me.

Jonah Hex - have always liked this western character. Enjoyed all of his series. Would like to see him in a new series that includes many of DC's western characters guest starring in various stories.

Jason Blood - I always thought he was the more interesting aspect of Kirby's THE DEMON series. A guy trapped for century with the curse of Etrigan. There is a lot to work with there.

Ted Grant / Wildcat - I've always just liked this character. He strikes me as Batman without the fortune. Just a street level fighter out to do the right thing.

Wesley Dodd / Sandman - I like the dark moodiness of the character, the pre- Sandy era.

Those would be my votes.

I love Isis but with that name I don't think she is coming back anytime soon. It would just be too much of a hot button topic that DC does not want to deal with.

[Lightning Rider]

They could use alternative names like Iset, or she and others could just refer to her as "the goddess Isis" every single time to avoid confusion. Honestly in comics alone I don't think it's that hot-button for anyone to cause a fuss.

Calling her Iset would be brilliant.(..so they probably won't. )

[J. D. Guy]

Definitely not my only ones, but what comes to mind right at the outset are Red Devil/Kid Devil and Blue Devil.

The latter of whom I really enjoyed in those early New 52 "DC Universe Preresents" stories with Black Lightning. I loved the design and make of his suit. Macabre, but soooo cool! I loved his personality, and how his playful and mischievous side came out under the suits influence. He was pretty fun all around, a contrary example to how New 52 was, allegedly, all grim and dark all the time. Got some good lines out of him, and his relationship with Black Lightning was pretty cool for something as short lived as it was. Sadly, the whole affair was short lived, but it's stuck to my mind in such a positive way to this day.

The former also had a macabre and cool design that looked really sleek. I enjoyed his character, as well as the friendships he had, particularly with Jaime and Zachary Zatara. He always came off as the teen who wanted to prove himself and have something unique to call his own, like many a kid that age, but who himself was not judgmental of others and was willing to befriend anyone and give them a fair chance. Not all the Titans were like that. He was like Zach's only real friend at the time, too, right up until he lost his powers and subsequently died.

Honestly, I really didn't care for how he went out. He was treated as extraneous and not welcome, by the other Titans and the writer(s) by extension, which was likely why he was originally made to befriend the characters he did, even if it had the side effect of him being the most excepting of the Teens. The worst of it is that he was de-powered, almost instantly "justifying" the stand-offish treatment he was getting and that he continued to get, only to add insult to injury when he was killed off. I was not a fan. I read somewhere that he was supposed to come back in a story arc featured around him with powers again, and he would have played a sort of male Raven as far as how he would be trying to get away from the evil's influence that would have a hold on him, but of course that never came to be. (Eddie was also in "DC Universe Presents", albeit in a bit role. Perhaps it would have been expanded and he would have been back with a powers that way, but since Blue was never touched bases with after, Red had no chance.)

Kid Chimera and Tom Cat/Wild Cat II from JSA were also both cool to me, and I wish they'd gotten more definitive screen time than they did. Same for Reiser and Roman from the New 52's Doomed series, which was also short lived for me.

Above everything else, I wish to see this book continued at least long enough to settle the things it brought up. Namely, Roman's poor fate, (seriously, I felt so bad for how his story was left hanging ), how Reiser continued to carry out his new-found positive resolve for his situation after choosing to return to Metropolis and Star Labs from his super-brief stay with the Teen Titans, and who the heck that girl with the glasses was, as well as the "kid" with the coke bottle glasses, of whom both seemed privy to a side of Reiser and a deeper plot that was never elaborated on. Her name escapes me, but the girl seemed to have the power to calm Reiser in Doomed-mode down.

Oh, and I'd of loved it if Reiser stayed around long enough to have gotten a proper superhero code name, too.

Bilal Asselah, aka Nightrunner from Batman Inc.

Same here. He's my fav of the Batman Inc. characters. Definitely the coolest and most contemporary, both in looks, style, and backstory. Sad that the last I can recall seeing him, he had been brainwashed like a chump...

I'd definitely read a story featuring him any day.
