Imaginary DC series-line, part 2.
By kfhrfdu_89_76k 10 Comments
I`m back for part two!
But, I decided to change things a bit. Instead of being an editor at DC, in this imaginary-tale of mine, I decided that I`m simply a fan who can decide of what kind of series DC can consist of , for a few years, maybe.
Why? I found a genie who let me have one wish. And it couldn`t be "I wish for a perfect world".
Here`s part one, if you stumbled upon this one as its own post, instead of actually stumbling upon my blog.

Anyways...
80-page giants
An 80-issue miniseries (or even more issues. Maybe 800.). Each ish is 80 pages. 8-12 issues a year. Has obscure (and not that obscure) characters frolicking around, in pretty much whatever adventures (the story has to be great, of course) the creators want. Teen titans, black superheroes functioning as a team, League of superheroes, Birds of prey, Atom, Kamandi, The Spirit, Penguin (the villain, not the hero (though, the hero would be awesome too))...
Also has bat-characters. Yes, originally I thought that they would stay in Detective comics, but as pointed out, TEC could be about detectives, instead of bat-heroes.
Anthology-series.
Actually, this series might render alot of the series I`ve thought up, pretty much needless. Okay, maybe not. I suppose that alot of them deserve a series. But, if the series are cancelled, there`s probably enough room in this one.
Gotham (?)
If, and I mean IF, there`s not enough room for all the Bat-heroes and other super-Gothamites in TEC and 80, there will be this one. So, it works as I originally thought that TEC would work. Like this:
Be it an issue, that stars Barbara Gordon, Commisioner Gordon, Ragman or pretty much anyone, in a one-shot story. Or a six or more issue arc starring 12 different characters, functioning as a team. Or a year-long epic about Nightwing. Just use those characters who are collecting dust.
All new characters and series
10, 20...I don`t know how many.
Outsiders
@Icarusflies`s idea. There probably wont be a Metamorpho-series, if he gets enough story space in this one.
Captain Marvel/ Captain Billy Batson*
Should have a writer who wouldn`t screw it up.
JSA
Maybe.

Nothings else springs to mind right now. Maybe some other day. I dunno.
Approximately, there would be 27-49 series, if I could decide. Heh, that`s even less than the "new" 52. Of course, It would also be up to the fans and writers, what would be published. I`d like 80-page giants the most. And New gods. If written by, say, Grant Morrison. Or someone else who knows how to write them the way Kirby envisioned them.
