Legion World Forums LEGION COMPANION Spaceopoly I'm thinking of a DCU character...

Did the series featuring this character as the title character premiere before Zero Hour?

Yes, it premiered afore Zero Hour.

Did this character first appear prior to 1990?

Yes, it appeared before 1990.

I don't remember Blacula 's original post when it was posted, but I went back and read it now -



But anyway, my comics knowledge is limited compared to most others here so when I do bring out these questions it's because I know I probably don't really know the character being guessed. If I didn't narrow characters down by alphabet then I would be narrowing down by time period or color or whatever, so I would run the risk of killing the fun again because eventually I would start going by year.

Maybe it is a bit more fun when the right answer pops into your head more intuitively than by eliminating every other possible choice to each his own I suppose.

Anyway, I don't think this line of questioning says anything so much about the obscurity of the characters being chosen, than it does about my comparative lack of comics knowledge, so rest easy thothy. In my experience, the way to know if your character is too obscure is when people stop guessing altogether.

As for Blacula's point about it being not fun, weeeeeeeeeell, maybe I just think differently. Rats, now maybe Blacula won't ever want to hang out with me

Is your character human?

Good point, although there's a Legion one of yours I look at, but just can't think of anyone yet. I'll need to start posting "still thinking" there, so you don't think that no one's looking

I forgot that one of the main things it makes me think, is that I've made a goof in my answers. I end up thinking I've made an embarrassing error in there that's ruined it



Yes, the character is human

Thanks for clarifying what that line of questioning makes you think As mentioned above, I really don't know as much about comics as many others - outside of the Legion, JLA, JSA and Titans I know very little. And with the above four it's more of the heroes, really.

Ah, that Legion one... thankfully Reboot has breathed some life into it. My character there isn't really all that obscure and I bet most regular Spaceopoly players will be slapping themselves after someone guesses it!

Is your character El Diablo?

Yeah, I had it in my head it was Holdur or something, and got stuck after that. I'll take another peek at Reboot's posts.



No, my character is not El Diablo.

Is your character caucasian?

yes

Has this character made any appearances in the past ten years?

None that I know of.

Did your character appear in one of the Zero Hour miniseries issues (excluding tie in issues)?

No he didn't appear in any of those.

Is it Haywire?

Hitman?

It's not Hitman

It is Haywire.

Star of 13 violent issues of the late '80s, from Michael Fleisher
& the muted palettes of Vince Giarrano.

Hawywire wore a suit of powered armour, containing lots of weapons (I don't know how any of it was replenished in the series). He fought shady criminal networks and powered Japanese assassins.

Over to EDE!
The owner of the armour had some personality issues, leading to a number of the "sort of" answers above.

I liked this question, so I am reusing it for EDE's character.

If your character was gay, would the character have or be interested in having a boyfriend? (in other words, is the character male)

Does your character wear a costume?

I knew it would be a character I didn't know!

To EDE - does our character have inherent super powers?

This character is male.



No.



No.

Is it Dr Occult?

It is not Dr. Occult!
