She is one of the people trapped In Kandor yes. I didn't want her existing yet because I wanted to emphasize the sole survivor aspect of Superman, to mak the revelation about Kandor's existence have more of an impact on him. It' was a good introduction, but I'd appreciate it if you could capitalize the starts of your sentences and use periods. I don't mean to be a dick or a grammar nazi, but that's part of casual roleplay standards. I did approve his bio, and I thought being funded by Lex Luthor was a sufficient connection to the DCU. That's not really that dissimilar to being something like a former sidekick of an established superhero, which is what Shifter is. "Having a connection to the DCU" is an admittedly vague statement, but I do think that Maximums fits the bill.Next time just be sure to send a quick PM first. But I'm sure you guys can work things out. As it stands right now, Batman and Robin are infiltrating Luthor's tower to get info on the whole Kahndaq situation. All NacNak really established was that Luthor happened to be watching some scientists work on something while this was going on.There's a code red at the Watchtower right now, but Dblade and Vita be sure to complete your mission with Lex before reporting back to the Watchtower and joining in the fight. It's believable that Batman would want to take care of that first, because he's more of a street-level hero, and there's plenty of superpowered heroes in the Justice League to handle cosmic threats. Batman is an asset against those threats, no doubt about it, but he's real expertise is investigation.I'm going to let BlackSam make a post in the IC first, because his last post left off with Aquaman going to speak to J'onn about some issues with Atlantis and I feel like he should have the opportunity to have that conversation, or at least start to have it, before Brainainc's forces show up and he has to hop into battle. So after BlackSam's next psot, I'll try to post again. I really think the ideas that BlackSam has brought to the table, like Atlantis being fed up with humans dumping waste in the water and stuff like that, fits well with the theme of the story and the reason Brainiac has come to Earth in the first place. In the future having Brainaic sort of trying to turn Aquaman against the humans and trying to show him how inherently evil he believes them to be will set up some great character moments. And I'm hoping that in the climax of the story we might see Aquaman calling upon the armies of Atlantis to rise up and help defend the humans or something to that effect. That would be a perfect story arc.
I'm in the middle of writing the post right now Zeus, wont have to wait to long! And I was thinking that the troubles of Atlantis could become a later storyline for us, I'm glad to see you've noticed the groundwork I've been laying. The armies of Atlantis being called to help the surface world could easily lend itself to my idea!
As to Batman I have to say I disagree. Bruce, while primarily concerning himself with Gotham, is a pragmatist. To his mind Lex Luthor, while still an evil man, isn't bent on destroying the world. Batman, on seeing the approaching alien invasion, would put two and two together, realising that the invasion would take precedence over any problem he has with lexcorp's war profiteering. It's why Bruce is so ambiguous about his desire to be in the League. He knows the Leagues problems always take precedence over anything else.
Just food for Dblades thought
