DC heroes who turn 75 this year. Any you think should be a bigger deal?

Most likely we'll get a Justice League 75th anniversary special featuring the current team instead of JSA.
It's the thought that counts, right?

No . . . the name "Justice League of America" isn't celebrating it's 75th anniversary. It's the 75th anniversary of "some character named Flash"; "some character named Hawkman"; "some character named Green Lantern"; . . .

Maybe there will be a jsa JL team up for the anniversary of jsa.

But there currently isn't a JSA, is there?

And who knows if DC will keep the guys from Convergence around after May?

They wouldn't dare.

I want a Catwoman hardcover anniversary anthology including one shots from the 1990s series and earlier.

That would be a great cover for a compendium

Does that read or to subtle?

I was glad they put out one of their ginormous 75th anniversary books for Flash and they better do the same for GL.

same here.

i was not actually aware that a lot of characters will have their 75th anniversary.

hoping that we get a green lantern themed month.

The Wikipedia article seems to have missed the Joker. It's easy to remember when the Joker first appeared, because he made his debut in the same comic as Catwoman--BATMAN No. 1 (Spring 1940). I guess they are celebrating Joker with the variant covers and all the other books they've done with him. But I think they should celebrate the 75th of Robin, Joker and Catwoman all at the same time in one event. When I think of those three, I think of Jerry Robinson and Bill Finger, who co-created them. Some celebration of Robinson and Finger would be nice.

Also, Metamorpho and Animal Man turn 50 this year.

I'm in good company, it appears.

Don't forget the golden age Doctor Fate, the one true fate ��... its also the old guys 75th as well!

[Starchild]

No. Simply because a lot of those characters that are named aren't relevant in any way or form. What has Doctor Fate, Red Bee, (really?) Hourman & Atom done for DC as a company? I'll wait.

Doctor Fate, Hourman, and the Atom aren't important to the DCU? I'm not sure if you're being serious or not...

Really, has anyone even heard of these guys? Captain Marvel, the Joker, Robin, Catwoman, the Flash, Green Lantern, the Spirit, the Vigilante, Starman, the Justice Society of America. None of those names rings a bell. Why would anyone wanna celebrate those old losers?
