After he crashes it in the first big battle with the Starros, he uses part of the plane as well as alien Starro tech to build himself a suit and wings.

Callsign: Hawkman

And just for giggles, reference for when he's not in a plane or a flying suit. Need more beards in the world... LOL

Anybody out there? Surely some of you have had ideas in your mind how you would handle recreating a DC character...?

DC Universe REBIRTH iCheck

A new alien menace has began infecting several citizens in Central City [Kansas] and it's sister city across the bridge Keystone City. The Superman hasn't been seen in weeks and is thought to be off world. Batman stays in Gotham and is only ever seen at night. And Wonder Woman was last seen in Europe after the new King and Queen were announced. Central City and Keystone City aren't the only towns infected either. After just three weeks, other large cities in America began seeing strange zombie like trances in several dozen people. Midway City [Michigan], Coast City [California], Star City [Washington], and St. Roch [Louisiana] have all been infected with what appears to be 'alien starfish'.

Batman has already come into contact with what the media is calling 'Starros'. He's tracked most of them to a temp service agency down near the Gotham Harbor.

________________________________

In this RP, players will get the chance to recreate some of the bigger DC properties in a similar fashion to what happened when the Golden Age was replaced by the Silver Age. The Atom went from being a little person with an atomic punch to what we have today in Ray Palmer using tech to shrink to atomic size. Green Lantern changed from a man in a cape with a supernatural ring of power into a space cop armed with the same type of ring only in an entire Corps. I know what you guys are thinking. "How is this unlike any game that came before?" And the answer is simple. Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman will remain mostly unchanged though I may make some tweaks to their histories [they're Gods and Monsters inspired]. EVERYTHING ELSE IS DETERMINED BY YOU. While I'm sure some folks will take more high profile characters, that's not to say you can't reimagine a lesser known character. While we'll more than likely form a team of some kind, though it will probably be Justice League themed, it doesn't have to be made up of reimagined Justice Leaguers. You wanna make Clayface a superspy who works for ARGUS? Perhaps Blue Beetle is something of a size manipulator and shrinks and does stuff in Ant-Man fashion? What if the Flash was reimagined as somebody who manipulates light to a much more basic degree than standard Green Lanterns, like what almost happened in the 80's and after the Crisis?

Here's what I've got for the Big Three so far...

Superman - Crash landed in Kansas in 1938, he took the name Clark Kent for a little more than twenty years until he became adjusted to how things worked on Earth. He began operating as Superman and was dubbed the first metahuman in 1960. In 2017, it looks like he might be twenty years older. The only signs of age are his facial hair and attitude. Built a fortress in Antarctica and saves the world when he has nothing else to do. Lately he's defended larger cities such as Tokyo, Metropolis, Coast City, Paris, and Cairo.

Batman - Doctor Thomas Wayne was a brilliant scientist and chemical researcher in Gotham who was looking into making a pill to grant longer lifespans [inspired by the ageless Superman]. After some experiments go horribly wrong, Wayne is left in a vampire like state and must feed on the blood of his enemies every so often to survive. At first he hunted criminals at night to survive, but since 2012 he's turned his nightlife into a war on crime.

Wonder Woman - The most like her original, Princess Diana was chosen to go out into man's world in 2014 after living on the hidden Paradise Island with her Amazon sisters for nearly seven centuries. The Amazons are more technologically advanced in this universe, WW's sole weapon now being a sword fashioned with Mother Box tech and capabilities.

________________________________

REMEMBER!

You can take ANY DC Comics character or concept and completely change it up to suit your taste. Any enemies I introduce in this after the Starros will be tied to Justice League-centric baddies as well as several of Superman's enemies and factions within the DCU. ARGUS is still our answer to SHIELD, STAR Labs is still a thing, and Lex Luthor is president in Trump like fashion. He demands to see 'Superman's legal papers' for instance. You wanna recreate the Joker and make him a hero? Go for it! Maybe you've had an idea to make Martian Manhunter a little more like a bounty hunter ala Boba Fett? That's cool too.

I'll be taking Hawkman for a spin as a test pilot in Coast City. Secret ID wise he'll be a little more like Hal Jordan, and it's the plane that does 90% of the work in the beginning. After it's scrapped he and his mechanic friend use the wreckage to create a winged harness and suit.

So... anybody out there wanna take the DCU and reimagine some characters? If there's enough interest I'll post a Character Sheet template, but go ahead and make mention of who you have in mind to recreate!

Justice League: Losers

Flying Stag had adapted to the new world in record time. He didn't care for technology, but when he had to get around he used his last known relative's beat up old truck. It was an eighties model and only had one headlight, so Stag had to drive it during the daytime to avoid getting arrested. He saw how the world had changed, now with more than just white Europeans running around America. The guy in the passengers seat in his truck snoring was Hector, a somewhat pale young man with shaggy hair. A few weeks ago Hector made himself known to the Super Chief during a casino fire on a nearby reservation. He calls himself the Silver Scarab. Surely the two of them had the power and morals to be accepted into the Justice League sooner than later.

"Hector...? Hector are you hungry? I was thinking about stopping somewhere for food...." Stag said to the other guy as the truck passed a road sign.

Hector groggily stirred from his sleep as it took a moment for Stag's words to be fully comprehended by Hector's groggy mind. He rose from his contorted sleeping position against the window and gave a loud yawn before answering Stag's question.

"I could go for some grub." Hector said patting his stomach to emphasize his point. "What time is it? You ever tried pancakes?" Hector asked curiously as he stared out the window for a moment to check where the sun was and to see if it was clearly too late for a breakfast menu at a small diner or McDonalds along the road.

"I've been in this new world for awhile now, Standing Bear showed me many things. I like Burger King over McDonalds, don't care for 'football', and I find computers too complicated. However, we will try and find you pancakes my friend..." Super Chief explained.

They had passed another road sign on the highway.

Gotham - 76 miles
Metropolis - 112 miles
Albany - 43 miles

"I look forward to seeing this 'Mohawk River'..." Stag continued, "There's a food exit up ahead, any of those look good to you Hector?" he asked.

The Legion of Superheroes RETURN

Moments Ago...

The group of young heroes making up the new Legion of Superheroes was walking around downtown Metropolis and past an old school arcade. Suddenly power flickered and energy cracked as a metahuman individual approached a young female. After the Daxamite mentioned wanting to go see the Superman Statue in another park he knew after the flickering lights something was gonna go down. In the distance a young alien boy screamed. Nobody could guess that it was in fact the newest champion of the Wizard Shazam, Capt. Marvel.

Now...

"Rao help us..." Sol said under his breath as part of the group began backtracking.

“I think the best thing for you to do is walk away, friend.” commented the new green clad Captain before one of the more seasoned members of the team approached he and the would-be suitor.

"Listen, both of you, I can tell that you're both very powerful, and I don't wish to antagonize either of you, but if you could please take this conflict elsewhere, I don't want anyone getting hurt..." Ferro Lad said in his loosened tie and civies yet still in his mask.

"Is THIS why you came to this place, Seline? Heroes back in town and you think you and the other girls who ditched the group are SAFE?!? Thunderboy here and Metal Face won't keep ANY of you safe!!" the young dark skinned man screamed now with electricity whirling and whipping around like it was alive.

Civilians screamed, people panicked, and the mall was a sight among sights. Sol tried to get a good line of sight on the man to tag him with his heat vision but there were too many people in the line of fire. He'd have to close the gap and do something if Ferro and this new guy in the cape couldn't handle the guy screaming and spitting electricity. The Daxamite couldn't help but wonder if all the good supervillains were in the 21st century, thinking about how lame every criminal he's faced had been. Eye Borg, the futuristic Fastball, and Ghost Face were all losers with sub-par powers compared to Sol in his early days as a hero in Coast City.

"Pano! Help me move some of these people out of harm's way!" yelled Sol at one of the more alien looking members of the team.

In truth, being a survivor of a xenophobic world now on a planet with hundreds of alien species, the new Ultra Boy would never stop being in awe. It didn't mater if they had blue skin, feathers, or fins on their heads, the team was around to help ANYBODY in danger. With metal fists ready to fly, Ferro and the guy in green were ready to rock this loser's world.
