I used to enjoy the bickering back and forth between Ollie and Carter in Justice League of America. Could Doc Samson help them to reconcile? It might be fun to find out!

Always liked Doc Samson. Glad to see him back on your cover…
ReplyDeleteHeh! The way some of DC's writers act nowadays, I wouldn't put it past them to explain away both the bickering and GA's former infidelity to Black Canary as...same-sex attraction to Hawkman.
ReplyDelete#Anon854: Shhhhh! Don't give them any ideas.
DeleteUm, we know what the fight is about (Identity Crisis (2004-2005)).
DeleteNow that is a great idea for a story! (Maybe you could throw in Black Canary and Hawkgirl for couples therapy too.)
ReplyDeleteDoc Samson is truly a super psychologist, I saw the actual panel of the argument between GA and hawkman and it went from the sublime to the ridiculous. You know an "Oh YEAH???...YEAH!!!!!" moment.
ReplyDeleteThis was my favorite dynamic in the Justice League and the fact that the two would work together when it counted.
ReplyDeleteIt brought some interest to characters that were ancient and well developed but could never stand on their own. Arrowverse missed that opportunity for his brief appearance.
If we're going to resolve their differences this is perhaps where Dove could best get involved as well as Mr. A. to stir things up in his absolute self righteous Objectivist viewpoint.
I did like how Batman was the lone dissenter when Dr Light got on the Satellite and how Zatanna's messing with Dr Light's head to forget twisted him into the clown he became. That became a great origin story.
I loved it when Batman backhanded Hawkman with a clenched fist over that head-messing, a year or so later. That bird-brain actually had the nerve to threaten the Dark Knight with instant retaliation. Right there in the Batcave!
DeleteHe would have had his Thanagarian tail feathers handed to him on a silver platter. And deservedly so!
Katar was and still is my preferred Hawkman (and Hawkgirl couple) . Too many aliens for Ollie??
ReplyDeleteIf so, that would be a bit hypocritical for someone so into American unity through diversity. Or does Ollie conveniently not remember his search for America alongside Hal Jordan and Ganthet the Guardian?
DeleteInfinite diversity thru Infinite combinations ??
DeleteWhy not?
DeleteI wonder where Hawkman would draw the line when it comes to his political beliefs...
ReplyDeleteThe Rannian star system, perhaps?
DeleteI'd like to see Doc Samson somehow meet Doc Savage.
ReplyDeletePerhaps with the aid of Doc Strong?
Delete@ Carycomic: That's a brilliant addition.
DeleteI am so glad one person understands his mission is to comment on everything (from mom’s basement?). It ruins my experience but luckily when I look on computer (not phone), no comments.
ReplyDeleteTakes one to know one.
