I fail to see why it's so hard to swap enemies.

[fredneil.livejournal.com (from insanejournal.com)]

I was thinking the same thing. It's always worked in the past when a group of superheros was in this situation.

[red_cyclone.insanejournal.com]

Just what I thought too.
Also - didn't Wildcat turn the wood guy into kindling when he was in a towel?

[bariman1987.insanejournal.com]

They failed to actually destroy all the remains, so he was able to regrow from a chunk.

[toasty_fresh.insanejournal.com]

Here's an idea-- when they refuse to fight you, just punch them in the face.

[oddpuppets.insanejournal.com]

Now, I haven't read the issue so what I theorize is completely from just these three scans, but...

OCD tactician with superiority complex. Crafts a team and trains them to fight in an exacting manner and strategy, that brooks no deviation. They all have a specific target or targets. Like all battle plans in tends to go to hell when variables occur - which they always do.

Aren't those two, the 'dog pound' from Blue Beetle?

[ian_karkull.insanejournal.com]

Yes. Yes they are.

[hybrid2.insanejournal.com]

LOL!
I realy got to get my comics tomorrow.

[ian_karkull.insanejournal.com]

Blackbriar Thorn died in Infinite Crisis, but other than that, I like how Willingham and Sturges pulled out their favourite Z-Listers for this.
The Dog Pound's from Sturges fill in on Blue Beetle and I'm pretty sure Judomaster is fighting Tapeworm. I mean, c'mon! Friggin Tapeworm!

[tacobob.insanejournal.com]

BT has died a bunch of times, but just add soil, water and some love, and he grows back. I believe he was starting to grow back in that same issue he died, since they mentioned he was throwing in his will for Captain Marvel with the Super-Duper magic-pumped up Marvel was fighting thr Spectre.

[filbypott.insanejournal.com]

Yeah, it was Willingham himself who killed off Thorn, and in the same issue he showed Thorn's sapling "growing back".

[filbypott.insanejournal.com]

...and you totally said that in your post. Reading fail, sorry.

[red_cyclone.insanejournal.com]

And this is why I should read all the comments before posting.

[kamino_neko.insanejournal.com]

Tapeworm was the one sent to call the JSA out in the first place.

[silverzeo.insanejournal.com]

I thought tapeworm's worm body was more cube like... and that Jay is fighting Blackbriar Thorn, right?

[kamino_neko.insanejournal.com]

No, Jay's fighting Tiger Moth...Alan's fighting (and getting his ass kicked by) Thorn.

[btravage.livejournal.com (from insanejournal.com)]

Blackbriar Thorn really needs to get off his ass and fight Swamp Thing one of these days.

[volksjager.insanejournal.com]

So, it's like dc "Acts of Vengence" ? Gotta say I was expecting more form BW on this issue...

[xammax.insanejournal.com]

When did new Eclipso happen?

[thokstar.insanejournal.com]

Jean was Declispoed during Countdown to Final Crisis (obligatory shiver.) Bruce Gordon was Reclipsoed in the Countdown to Mystery mini (it was a backup to Steve Gerber's Dr. Fate story.)

[xammax.insanejournal.com]

Having smartly skipped one, and not being aware of the other... I still came out ahead.

[lieut_kettch.insanejournal.com]

I guess Courtney's unbroken hymen protects her from more than just ghosts.

[dr_hermes.insanejournal.com]

Just glancing at these clips (I haven't read any new JSA stories in years), my guess is that the villains are saving her for some ulterior motive. They're going to use her in some way, as a scapegoat or to siphon off her power or something like that. It's not because they're afraid of her or want to spare her.

[kamino_neko.insanejournal.com]

One hopes not, since Ordway just did that in the last arc.

[naebler.insanejournal.com]

This screams of the opening salvo for Connor McCleod in Highlander. When he is on the battlefield with his clan and all the enemies back away from him and refuse to fight until the Kurgeon comes up to kill him.

I'm wondering if she is the real target for the "leader" of this rag tag bunch.

[long_silence.insanejournal.com]

I was thinking the same thing...

[akodo_rokku.insanejournal.com]

THAT'S why the old guys keep scaring off all the boys!

[bariman1987.insanejournal.com]

They're not scaring of Cyclone, however...

[neotoma.insanejournal.com]

Or makes her a key piece in a scheme -- if a virgin sacrifice is required, you might as well take one of your enemies out of the action while doing it.

[icon_uk.insanejournal.com]

Tiger Moth was last seen permanently insane in "Return of Ra's Al Ghul", so she got better in a hurry.

And Blue Moon was introduced in Shadowpact as a contract assassin.
