arbre_rieurThis is from one of the cooler extras in the JLA/Avengers hardcover collection.
Apparently, Kurt Busiek's original plot to issue 3 had to be heavily altered. Originally, it was going to depict what each of the two universes would be like if it had been made by the other company's creative staff. So we'd see a DC Universe by way of 60s era Lee, Kirby, Ditko, et al, full of violent emotions and soap opera elements. And vise versa, we'd see a Marvel Universe in the style of Silver Age DC, with imaginary cities and kooky sci-fi. Superman feels guilt over the destruction of Krypton, Captain America is a US Senator and operates out of Capitol City, etc.
Unfortunately (in my opinion), the editor on the DC side of the project ended up nixing this part of the story, but the hardcover includes Busiek's original typed-up plot.

Kidding, kidding, but those Japanese soldier outfits were pretty much the scary monsters of the time.

icon_uk... but then I realised that they might have been waiting politely for me to do it.
In any event, welcome to one of my rare "Context is for the weak" posts, as we discover the motivation of the cop who appears to be persecuting Nightwing.
( Okay, even I wasn't expecting THIS one! )
