Blue Beetle & Booster Gold and Nighthawk

 

Despite his wealth and abilities, Nighthawk was never quite able to rise above B-list status.  Still, I always liked Kyle Richmond and he had a very cool costume, so I always welcomed his appearances.  I think he would work well with the Blue & Gold team, acting as kind of a less gruff Batman.

  1. I agree with all your assessments, Ross. Especially the suitability of teaming him with Blue and Gold from the JLE days! If nothing else, they match the color scheme of Starhawk's outfit on yesterday's cover. :-)

  2. Yeah, I always liked Kyle, too. And I agree he'd work well with the Blue and Gold team.

  3. Hmmm, knock out gas for the Blob. Mr Untouchable gets moved into the air on air pressure or super power. Mr M. gets shifted into a dimensional doorway. (yeah, right!) Maybe it was harder than they thought to keep coming up with good plots for Batman-Dark.

    1. Knock-out gas could work on both Unus and the Blob! The only weakness in Mr. Untouchable's biological force field is that it's oxygen-permeable. It has to be! Otherwise, he'd suffocate due to the repulsion of oxygen molecules.

  4. Shouldn't laser and sonic attacks work against Unus as well?

    1. The latter? Possibly. The former? Probably not (assuming laser beams count as aggressively directed energy).
