200 LADIES

From the Line it is Drawn #200: "The theme is a revisit of one of my all-time favorite topics, Week 50′s “Super Team.” Make up your own super-team consisting of 1 Marvel character, 1 DC character, 1 character from an independent comic book company and 2 characters from any other form of fiction (novels, movies, whatever)." micQuestion suggested: "Storm, Vixen, Michonne, Promethea (Sophie Bangs), Yoruichi (Bleach)"

From the Line it is Drawn#199: "In honor of Batman’s 75th anniversary this month, team Batman up with a hero he’s never had a team-up with before or have Batman face a villain he’s never fought before!

JohnnyUnusual , SpastickMunkey, and therealAstrozac suggested: "Batman and Moon Knight".

From the Line it is Drawn #198: “Based on an old suggestion by John Trumbull, the topic is character design What If? Like “What if Jack Kirby had designed Batman?” or “What if Spider-Man had been designed in the 1930s?” or “What if Archie had been designed during the 1990s?” Let your imagination go wild!” FutuGen suggested: “What if Patrick Nagel designed Catwoman, Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn?”

GLPT

So, on the latest episode of the Line it is Drawn, people were asked what romantic pairings of comic book characters they'd like to see. Someone suggested Green Lantern and Photon. Problem: there are 3 or 4 Photons and a grip of GLs (say, 4 main ones?).

Now, I sort of thought the reader was referring to Monica Rambeau and John Stewart, but I kind of felt uncomfortable just naturally assuming it's the 2 African-American characters that should be together. However, I didn't want to short change therealAstrozac, who made the suggestion (although I began to suspect the vagueness of the suggestion was designed to mess with the artist).

At any rate, here are Hal Jordan and Monica Rambeau, followed by the John Stewart variant, and at bottom Hal and the Photon from Youngblood, in honor of the Sochi Olympics.

From The Line it is Drawn #171: “Based on a suggestion by twitter followers Ted and Lisa Dahlman, we’re doing a twist on dream casting for a superhero movie. Now, instead, pick a comic book team or character and a YEAR and our artists would have to come up with dream casting for that character/team for that particular year. To wit, who would be the dream casting for Wolverine in the year 1939? 1957? 1968? 1985? 1992? You get the picture.” Futabakun suggested: “Capt. Carrot & the Zoo Crew in 1945, when animation may have been at its peak!”
