Re: Yet another, help me name my team(s) thread: South America Yes, it would be "Caballeros del Sur". Good call.

Re: Make a Green Lantern Oath I like this one. Liana from M'Elu: "The cosmos through, in every part, one thing endures: a loving heart. Against the knaves, who'd quell this song, Green Lanterns stand, to right the wrong!" -Green Lantern Vol. 2 #162

Re: If You Had To Play a DC Character… 1) Green Lantern (Hal Jordan). My fave character, plus GL rings are the coolest toys ever. 2) Brainiac 5. The biggest genius ever, and quite stupid generally. Gotta love that. Plus, major hotties dig him. 3) Captain Marvel. I like his goofiness, the true-blue hero aspect, the magical elements...

Re: If You Had To Play a Marvel Character… Henry Pym. I like him being a scientist first, hero second. Also, Quicksilver, because I think it'd be wicked fun.

Re: Yet another, help me name my team(s) thread: South America Glad you like it.

Re: Yet another, help me name my team(s) thread: South America Minor nitpicking Spanish for Avatar is... Avatar. Murcielago Negro (Instead of "morsiegalo", a common misspelling) Vengador (what's with the obsession of putting THE in front of Spanish names... it's ridiculous.) Hombre Atomico. My own suggestions are bolded 1) Female Blaster, ground bound. Possible earth powers? TERREMOTO (Earthquake) 2) Batmanesque Luchador. No, seriously. Batman, but flamboyant. AZOTE (Scourge) 3) Gunbunny - Ex or current military, light armor, ridiculous dex. PISTOLERO (Gunfighter) 4) Speedster - Older guy, still fighting the good fight RAYO ROJO (Red Ray, an homage to an old hero ) 5) Growing/Shrinking guy with moderate super strength in smaller forms. MASA CRITICA (Critical Mass) They are known as los Caballeros de la Cruz del Sur (Southern Cross's Knights).

Re: "Essential" Graphic Novels / Trade Paperbacks Dunno if there are TPBs of all of these series, but look for them: any George Perez/Marv Wolfman Titans Grant Morrison's Animal Man. Can't believe no one brought this up yet. Formerly Known as the Justice League - Giffen/De Matteis/Maguire. Ditto. JLA: A new beginning - Giffen/De Matteis/Maguire JSA: The golden Age. James Robinson - Paul Smith. JSA TPBs. Geoff Johns Teen Titans. Geoff Johns. Anything with Kurt Busiek, Geoof Johns or Mark Waid on it. Kingdom Come. There's a reason those Marvel titles are called Essential. Get them. ANYTHING Astro City.

Re: Looking for NEW words of transformation: (SHAZAM, Thunder! Thunder!...) Darn u Korvac!!! "In the near future, Doc Terror and his cyborg companion Hacker unleash their forces to conquer Earth! Only one force can stop this evil -- a handful of brave men -- in specially created exoframes, they can be transported anywhere -- to fuse with incredible assault weapon systems -- beamed down from the space station Skyvault -- becoming Man and Machine - PowerXTreme! Max Ray -- brilliant sea operations commander! Jake Rockwell -- rugged land operations specialist! Ace McCloud -- daring air operations expert! Whatever the challenge, they are ready! The Centurions!"

Re: "Super" Cities- How many is too many? Darkness Falls is soo kewl. Consider that name officially "borrowed".

Re: Tell me about you're JLA I'd lie if I say I'm not interested. Mind telling me why from Argentina? (I'm from Argentina ) PM me If you don't want to go off topic.

Re: A Look at my Version of the CU Well, that's why I pointed you and others towards it. And we agree about the coolness of the Knights of Pendragon.

Re: A Look at my Version of the CU Ahem... this is a but a cheap plug to a friend's fanfic site... I'll admit it. But if anyone's interested in Brit supers, with more than a bit a mystical edge, check it. http://www.aric-dacia.com/pendragons/pendragons_center.htm

Re: Foreign Captain America's Granadero could one of two routes. He could very well be an armored hero. This alternative does not excite me much... I see him as a national symbol and not as a kickbutt scientist. I much rather make him a brick, with supersenses. Also an expert swordsman, since Granaderos fought with sword and guns. I see him as an inspiration for other superhumans in Argentina. Awhile back I started writing fanfic explaining the gathering of the members of Cruz del Sur (Southern Cross), the first superhero team, composed of Granadero (very much Superman in a flag themed costume), Arco Iris and Ingeniero. Never finished that fic. "The lady was nicknamed Arco Iris (Rainbow), due to the fact that a multicolored energy field surrounded her constantly and the man referred to himself as the Ingeniero (Engineer) due to his uncanny ability to design and repair advanced machinery of all sorts."

Re: Foriegn Captain America's Actually, that would be La Condesa de la Mañana Escarlata (Spanish spelling nitpick. Sorry.) *Ahem* Being Argentinean (or Argentine), I'd say a cool hero would be a Granadero. Granadero was a branch of the Army specially created in the 19th Century by Argentina's most brilliant General, José de San Martín. Although the uniform is not azure and white, the colors of our flag, it is still closely tied to our history. See an image of their uniform here. http://www.capraro.com.ar/images/ilustrac/SanMartin/Regimiento_Granaderos.JPG There is of course, an interesting page about DC's Global Guardians and other non-usa supers. http://dcworld.itgo.com/ Super Malon, the DC Group created by Chuck Dixon and Enrique Alcatena is also here. http://dcworld.itgo.com/SuperMalonArgentina.html
