yay!
oh now I have to think of a Q. um...
in the Justice League Spectacular, which reformed the Justice League after Breakdowns, several heroes come together to stop a hostage crisis. At the end, all but one decide to reform the Justice League America and Justice League Europe.
Which one hero opted out?

It has been so long since I have read that issue. Still remember the double cover with the two new teams and leaders, Superman and Hal Jordan.
Hmm. Wonder Woman?

You got it Annfie, it was Red Mason! Metamorpho pitched in to help (I believe it was Ice who called him in Power Girl).
When everyone was talking about reforming, he opted out as he wanted to relax (and I think he referred again to not really Being a team guy)
If I remember right, Batman was the only one among the guesses who appeared - but he didn?t join the fight, he was trying to convince Superman to play wel with others (a bit ironic eh). But Batman did say that he himself wasn?t meant for a team, while Superman could work wel in one?
Elongated Man and Sue Dibny were among the hostages
Superman went to free them but got taken out
Fire, Ice, Booster Gold and Blue Beetle came charging in, with Metamorpho, Power Girl and Guy Gardner also swooping in (called by Ice),
And Ice used Guy Gardner?s ring to contact Hal Jordan,
Who collected Flash (Wally), Crimson Fox and Aquaman. Doctor Light decided to come along,
And there we have it.

Rex is very crushable  I liked that he developed a small romance with the Crimson Fox, and that she could see past the exterior to the intelligent, charming man inside

I totally agree, Ibby. They were such a cute couple. It's a pity that their subplot got so melodramatic, with one of the D'Aramis sisters getting killed, and all the unpleasant repercussions. Bad writing, plain and simple.

New Q:
In the "Flex Mentallo" mini-series by Morrison & Quitely, there is a particularly heartbreaking scene where a drug addict meets his end in a filthy subway station men's room after briefly attaining "cosmic awareness."
Which DCU character was he an analog of?

Not Darkseid. This character is not a villain.

The Fact is...
Actually, I'm his post modern side-kick... The Uncertainty.
I think...
If it's a subway, that it might be Billy Batson receiving his instigating word of cosmic power? He met old man Shazam in a subway.

Thoth was very, very close (and kudos on the "Fact" reference,) because there *was* a Billy Batson analog in "Flex Mentallo." But he was the old janitor at the School for Sidekicks.
Major hint: the drug addict was an analog for a DCU character almost, if not quite, as youthful as the canon version of Billy.
