[up][up]Earth 3's fine, but I don't know if we really need an Earth-2. As you said, we already have a Golden Age for the main Earth, but at the same time, the Nu52 Earth-2 was designed as a replacement for the Golden Age anyway. Much as I like the series itself, the Nu52 Earth2 doesn't really need to exist here. However, while I likely wouldn't be using it, if other people are adamant at having crack at it, they can feel free.

Also, I don't think we really forgot the multiverse, or at least I didn't; Earth X (The Nazi Earth,) is going to play a major role later on in my series.wink

Condering how the multiverse is the mainstay of both companies, I think it wold be a good idea to keep them. As Khoho established, Earth X will be designated as the "Nazi Earth". If we need any others we can make them up on the fly. I personally would like to see a reality called Earth Next; a reality that is actually Earth Prime 20 years in the future.

Which "earth prime", the one with Superboy-prime and normal people, or the name given now to the main earth by DC?

Question for ya' all; does anyone think we should start another thread in the Fan Fiction section? We'd still mainly talk about the Project here, but I think opening a thread in the Fan Fiction section might net us — and more importantly, our works — a bit more exposure.

Do you mind if I put a "table of contents" in the second thread with links to your story, and eventually the rest?

Done. BTW, you may want to fix your link so it goes to the first post of the thread.

[up]The problem with that, I feel, is that what was in the thread at the beginning, doesn't exactly represent what the project is about now. I don't want newcomers to think the project is one thing, only to realize it's another.

Then, at least make a few links to the most important conversations in the thread, since that feels a bit sloppy.

I think we should link since page ten, since that's the first point there was an idea that wasn't just mix and mash (Diana as cap's daughter).

I have read the thread since the "what if marvel and dc merged" days. Also, that idea on the last page is awesome.

Once Lex finally gets put in the slammer after the whole Lex takes over America storyine...

I think that would be a perfect time to enact Phase 3 of Lex's Character Development.... assuming that Lex is even able to go through that at this point.

So, after the whole 'Lex Takes Over America' storyline is concluded, I think there should be some time dedicated to the fallout of that whole event. My main thought is that there's now a minority of Superheroes that believe that Superheroes not killing criminals in cold blood — not taking the law into their own hands — is what led to Luthor&Osborn getting control of America in the first place. Therefore, this united force decides to take a more authoritative approach to crimefighting, killing villains or crooks that they take down no matter what, as opposed to only doing so if there's no other alternative, such as self-defense, or acting to save another. Naturally, this group ends up coming to blows (both metaphorically&literally,) with the other heroes, especially the Justice Initiative. It also further worsens the rest of the world's current opinion of America...

You see, the rest of the world's current opinion of America at that point (or to be precise, the USA, as Canada and Mexico aren't too happy either,) is that America elected itself two madmen to power; that it was the USA's own fault for causing one of the most dire cases in the history of global security, and as such, they are not nearly as reliable as everyone thought. Therefore, the USA starts to lose it's status as the top world power, at least for a time, as no-one really trusts the USA anymore. Even it's own people are still disillusioned with their government, and in the days after Lex and Osborn's impeachment&imprisonment, small attacks from rebel civilians still occasionally break out. Eventually, full peace can be restored, but the USA will never be have quite the reputation and power as it once did, or at least not until a few generations down the line. (That's the beautiful thing about not actually working for Marvel&DC here; we actually get to have our stories make long-lasting impacts to the world, beyond just the Superheroes themselves.wink)

EDIT: Added Golden Girl to the Invaders Of Justice team. However, she (along with several other characters,) might not come along right away. Maybe. The first Season, once the team finally gets assembled, will deal with the Pacific Front, which will also touch on internment camps, which is where Golden Girl started out in the Marvel Universe. So, I may just have her show up and get her superpowers around partway through the First Season.

[up][up]I like the idea on the first paragraph. Not so much the second idea, reminds me too much of my country.

That aside this project doesn't have many international characters.
