Scarlet Witch can take Zatanna out by muffling her. I don't see how Z matches up well.

However, I'm kinda hazy on just what happened to that guy she was hanging out with post-Detroit League who had aquired artificial magi genetics. I wanna say he got eaten by some boojum but I'm not sure. What was his name again? Adam or something?

Oh, and by the way, fishnets allow Zatanna to win any contest by default.

I think that's why my own memories are hazy at best. I probably could remember, but I don't wanna. That way lies bad stuff... like the Detroit League itself.Originally posted by MisterVimes

I guess the only think I've liked about Zatanna's stories since Detroit was that she wasn't sucked into Vertigo with the other supernaturals and the wierdos.

Most of the Vertigo stuff was in the DCU (Sandman, Swamp Thing, Hellblazer) and Zatana in some of those stories was pretty cool, she had to hold her father's hand through a ritual in which he died to save her... pretty tough stuff.Originally posted by Superskrull

Sure, American Gothic was a cool story and one of the few decent tie-ins to Crisis. I just had this problem with the wierd dual continuity that sprang up around some characters such as Animal Man, Swamp Thing and the Doom Patrol where they ceased to interact with mainstream things/characters. OTOH, Zatana did pop up in Books of Magic and such but walked back to the 4-color side anyway. Poor Buddy Baker didn't squirm free of Vertigo's clutches til Morrison guest-starred him in the last issue or so of his run on JLA. Til then he was the forgotten JLE member. This is compared, of course, to the Beefeater, whom I'd really like to forget.Originally posted by MisterVimes

The Animal Man stuff was pretty good, 'til that nasty turn where his family was killed pointlessly.
