hmmm Munoz... nice...

also, seems cool....

I'm trying to remember if the old JSA had any Latino members-- all I can recall are the Montez siblings, Yolanda and Alex, who were Wildcat II and Eclipso II, respectively.

Is Red Tornado a sexy-lady-bot now? That seems.... Not bad, but a little unexpected.
Still not loving this take on Wesley Dodds though, I think this works better in a superheroic shared universe, but to me the Vertigo version form Sandman Mystery Theatre is by far the most interesting.
I hope Mister Terrific gets fixed up and active soon, I've really come around to liking the character.

I do wonder what exactly dictates the gender of an android, especially if you intend to use it as a weapon... Unless it's meant to be slightly disarming, kind of like how hurricanes are given womens' names.

[lieut_kettch]

Well, since this is Earth-2, maybe its got Ma or Maxine Hunkel's personality programmed in.

Hmm... though if this Reddy is a fembot, shouldn't it be called a gynoid?

[silverhammerman]

That would be a really neat way of bringing together the two wildly different versions of the characters and I'd love to see it. I feel like in the long run though, the character is going to inevitably go back to being male, just on the basis that they have been for decades.

[lieut_kettch]

Maybe they can keep the Earth-1 Reddy the way he is, with the same origin, while the Earth-2 one will be the fembot.

I do wonder what exactly dictates the gender of an android,

The designer and how horny they are at the time?

[rainspirit]

Wait. Wesley Dodds, the Sandman, is Canadian now?

[lieut_kettch]

Wesley Dodds is Canadian?

[rainspirit]

Heh! Beat me to it.

I'm pretty sure he wasn't before, or we'd have heard of it.

[lieut_kettch]

I guess when they say Justice Society of AMERICA, they mean it. So now The Sandman comes from the land of poutine, hockey, and free health care.

[darkknightjrk]

Well, this is a world where the Apocalyptian invasion seemed to lessen the power of most countries in general, with this World Council in charge.

[jlbarnett]

well, the US President is still an important guy.

The military seems to be the biggest combined thing

[captainbellman]

So Red Tornado is a sexy ladybot now. In this reimagined universe. Where many of our favourite characters are younger, of different sexual preferences or ethnicities, and have hip new costumes.

Hurm.

+1 points for design...



-5 for originality.

[icon_uk]

That's hardly an original take either, since so many female-looking androids bear a passing similarity to Maria from Metropolis 85 yeras ago.

[filthysize]

captainbellman's referring to the gimmick of making the alternate universe version of a familiar android character a female version.

Alan, put on some clothes. You're making me want to pick this comic up again.

Which I may do anyway when Wildcat shows up because, yeah. Wildcat

[skemono]

Alan, put on some clothes.

DON'T LISTEN TO HER, ALAN. Let this be your new costume!

[lieut_kettch]

Keep the boxers, but add the purple pimp-cape. Yessssssss...

[kirke_novak]

LESS IS MORE!!!! LESS IS MORE!!!!!!!!!

He should defo team up with Aquaman, it would be.... ..... ....~~~~niiiiiiice

[kirke_novak]

I can't say I enjoy Max Lord Sloan but Alan crying and sadding and emoing made me giddy. I'm just that person, so sue me.

Redhead...uses a crossbow...has some detective skills...anyone else see what could've been the Red Arrow/Hawgirl lovechild?
