It sure seems that way. He's so versatile, I could see him on just about anything. What I'd love to see him on would be an All-Star JLA. Written by Bob Harras, with none of the pesky DCU continuity/Infinite Crisis restrictions that ruined his JLA arc from a couple years ago.

Bagley's always been one of those guys for me that does the job well, but rarely gets me excited. Maybe it just means he's underrated for not being as flashy as some of the other guys who can't keep a monthly schedule, but the fact remains my reaction to his move to DC is, "eh."

I would love to see him on JSA. While JSA has alwasy had good artists they've never had a big name or someone with a distinct style imo. Bagley would rock on it. JLA, Teen Titans, Flash, Superman, Batman. Yeah he can draw anything for DC and it would rock. I've been a big fan of his since the New Warriors days. A certain great Legion inker Larry Mahlstedt inked on NW and to this day I think it was his best inker. Bagley has improved big time since then. I would love to see Larry inking Mark's Legion?

Been a long time Bagley fan, mainly b/c of his Spidey work.
He's so consistent and stays on books for so long, that I fear that is the reason many people don't get excited about him. I'd certainly take him over 90% of the artists at DC and Marvel but his name never usually pops into mind.
He's known for being really fast--so he might be perfect for a weekly series. I'd really, really love to see him on the Flash.
His biggest strength is that he brings 'energy' into the panels, even when the writer has pages after pages of no action. In that regard he's very Marvel Silver Age (re: quite a compliment from this poster).

Loved his work on Thunderbolts, very dynamic stuff. I'd love to see his take on the Teen Titans or JSA. Or, yanno, *Legion.*

I'm tellin' ya, Bagley on Flash. It'd be hella-kewl.
We'd need the perfect writer for him though. No one springs to mind immediately.

How about Tony Bedard? It's way past time DC gave him a monthly gig, and he's inventive enough that he wouldn't rehash what Waid and/or Johns did.
Call me a heretic, but I tried to get into Johns' Flash and...I didn't think it was that good.

Heretic!!! We are so not friends anymore! /dramaqueen Originally posted by Wild Cobalt:

Yeah, but sorry Cali, the current Waid Flash run has been boring like no other. The kids are a pretty awful idea...  . What I'd give to have a Flash I'd enjoy again....(jeepers Stealth, Geoff's run rawked!  )
