No it's NOT happening - not even a rumor. Just something I was thinking I would like to see. I don't usually like cross-overs, especially of entire teams - but this one could be a great combo of powers-abilities and, especially, personalities. A bit like the Jakita Wagner/Batman encounter in the Planetary cross.

(The only letter to DC that I ever got published was my 12-year old's request for a Batman-Nero Wolfe team-up in World's Finest. They responded that it would be too hard to draw all the orchids.)

Hmmm, could make for an intersting crossover for sure.

By the way, FC, the new avatar is Purrrrrrfect!

Actually, you touch on what might be a DC company-wide cross-over event that I would actually buy into.

What if DC did an event month where they crossed over a Legionnaire, or major Legion character, into each and every DC book?

Which Character would be work best in each book?

Some off the cuff thoughts:
Detective Comics: Chameleon
Batman: Umbra
Birds of Prey: Shikari
Wonder Woman: Sister Andromeda
Flash: XS
Green Lantern: Rond Vidar
Green Arrow: Karate Kid
Gotham Central: Shvaughn Erin
Superman: Cosmic Boy
Advs. of Superman: Ferro
Formerly Known as Justice League: Tenzil Kem
JSA: Lady Mysa & Dragonmage
HERO: Ultra Boy
Teen Titans: Brainiac 5
Nightwing: Invisible Kid
Robin: Spark
JLA: M'Onel
Action Comics: Timber Wolf
Catwoman: Apparition
Hawkman: Sensor
Aquaman: Gear
Outsiders: Triad

Green Arrow: Gates (I'm smiling at the possible political discussions)
Gotham Central: Shvaughn (great choice PL)
Superman: Cosmic Boy

JSA: Starboy
HERO: Lori Morning (as long as she's stranded in the present)
Teen Titans: Spark
Nightwing: Shikari
Robin: Saturn Girl (I think she likes'em young)
JLA: WILDFIRE!

Makes sence, with his background as a spy. I went with Cham as, preboot at least, he fancied himself a Detective. With Cham visiting a gret detective of the past, I had imaginings of a Data playing Sherlock Holmes type story

Batman: Karate Kid

Which, of course, is a team-up that has been done once before.

quote:
Birds of Prey: Triad
That's a LOT of chicks in one book [Big Grin] I went with Shikari as, with wings and claws, she's the closest think in the Legion to a bird of prey.

quote:
Wonder Woman: Ultra Boy
I'm sure he'd LOVE Paradise Island [Wink] I went with Andromeda as the nearest thing in the Legion to an amazon. Plus, if she is still trying to become at peace with herself, Amazonian philosophy might help.


quote:
Green Lantern: Chameleon


You don't want to toss the fanboys a bone by putting Rond here?

Green Arrow: Gates (I'm smiling at the possible political discussions)


EXCELLENT choice! I had picked Val in order to put a couple of Zen nuts together, but I like your idea better.

Another match-up I like better than my original choice.

quote:
JSA: Starboy


This works. I chose Mysa for her connections to Mordru.


quote:
HERO: Lori Morning (as long as she's stranded in the present)


Yeah! Send her back where she came from!!


quote:
Robin: Saturn Girl (I think she likes'em young)


Hussey!


quote:
Hawkman: Timberwolf


I picked Sensor since birds & snakes don't get along. Plus, with her power, she could make him relive some of his past lives.

Outsiders: Dev-em (rebooted as similar to pre-TMK)
Works for me. What a major cross-over event without the introduction of a few new characters.

I'm curious -- what made you put these two together?
