So, I guess we're all expecting a solo Cyborg ongoing at some point. I talked with a lot of my friends, asking each what they thought or at least hoped the comic would be like. I got the usual Brother Blood and his high school of bad guys like in the Teen Titans cartoons and all of that. Another of my friends said she'd like to see HARDWARE and STATIC in it, but I'm not with that idea.
My vision of a Cyborg comic would be sometime after the established JLA Origin story (sometime after that FIVE year interval in which any number of events occurred, obviously) preferably in a city near a coast (like New Haven or Boston or even San Francisco). He works in S.T.A.R. LABS in some high position that his accelerated intellect has granted him. When he's not out doing Super Heroics, his mission with STAR would be the usual philanthropic "Further technology, and figure out a way to create free energy for the world" jargon. This would provide a medium for storytelling, and his STAR job might possibly (but should, if written well) help create a supporting cast for him in the same way that a school does for a teenager.
I don't know. I guess I'm thinking out loud lol. Maybe I'm just silly to think about, and hope for all these things (please tell me if I am)
So gals and guys, I want to know from you. What would you expect a Cyborg solo to be like? What kind of characters do you think he'd need to support him, and what kind of enemies do you think should oppose him? In what kind of city would he reside?
