thanekosIt's a story that'd stand on its own without the use of familiar characters and also one where that use isn't perfunctory or gratuitious.
It's a spinoff of the supertitular Elseworlds, one that acknowledges the connection in only a caption. It's set in Jarnlund, islands blighted by the subtitular condition for twenty-one years.
Issue #1 opens on Vandar Adg of the Vandal clan (sometimes called " Savage ") taking Svartfjell with the help of the mercenary Slade.
After that, Slade wanted his pay and to go.
" So swift to depart? " asked Vandar. " After so many years away? "
( He remembered Slade of the past. )

thanekosIt's the story she told him in issue #1070, of this run's antagonists - the family Orgham.
She had the tale from her father, a character in it.
Her telling didn't start with Ra's al Ghul - it started with ' [t]he daughter of the sands [marrying] the firstborn son of the desert wind. '
( ' Orgham ' was the daughter's side. )

Superman Arrested--Film at Eleven
Jan. 15th, 2012 07:19 pmskjamLet's switch gears for a moment and return to the Bronze Age of comics, specifically Action Comics #556. We'll be looking at 7 2/3rd pages of the 23-page story, "Endings."
Not really a very good cover, but it does come pretty close to the events inside.
A bit of background: Vandal Savage was originally from Earth-Two, where he fought the Golden Age Green Lantern, and later the Justice Society of America. Thanks to the JLA/JSA teamups of yore, Mr. Savage learned of the existence of Earth-One and how to get there. He also learned that he apparently had no counterpart on that parallel world, which gave him an idea.
Vandal Savage comes to Earth-One where he has no criminal record. He somehow gets enough resources to build Abraxas Industries, and become a legitimate businessman. Since he has no criminal record, people are willing to give Mr. Savage the benefit of the doubt, despite Superman's warnings about his past behavior on Earth-Two. But just being free from the threat of prosecution isn't good enough for Vandal Savage, and he begins a plot to discredit and perhaps destroy the Man of Steel.
( We join that plan already in progress. )
