Fear wasn't his food, unlike the <b>Star Trek</b> villain Redjac (from <i>"Wolf in the Fold"</i>), it was his drug.<br /><br />Yeah, Thor would fit in just fine in the JLA.

A fleet footed member, a non-green Amazon, guy with wings, a shrinker, and so on. Difference? Him and Batman. Plus, Thor is magic based and isn't as multi powered as Kal-el. No visions, no super hearing, super cold breath..While the hammer gives flight, more super strength type punches, super wind power and such that's helpful..it's not the same as flying and both hands holding some massive item (like a ship) at the same time.<br /> Bruce would not treat him as Steve Rogers does.

You are ...Like the cover a lot. And love the title.<br />You are right. Thor would fit smoothly with the League. Maybe too smoothly...you have already paired him a time or two with Clark and Diana - have you ever considered the three of them spinning off their own Super Duper League - the Deluxe Demigods or whatever. Only REALLY superpowered folk need apply. Only REALLY top grade super villains catered for.<br />Mind you, that might cause some friction in the Cap-Diana relationship...Davejonzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03116279941556038226noreply@blogger.com
