One thing about the Doug Ramsey/Bei the Blood Moon's relationship has been constant from the start.

Congratulations, you're both decades too late and a couple years too early.

[It's called "seasons". :| I'm in the process of a rewatch, okay?! It's a lot of content!]

Yeah, whatever... Look, if you're gonna break me out on a day like today, drinks are on you. I don't make the rules.

[You just did, though...]

While some JLI members lost their solo series after getting into the JLI, Scott Free, AKA Mister Miracle, got his back in a second volume. (All unmarked citations here are for Mister Miracle v2.) J.M. DeMatteis wrote issues #1-8 with assistance from Keith Giffen and Len Wein; Wein took over for #9-13, and Doug Moench finished it out with #14-28. The series’ central conflict was Scott and Barda trying to live out the late-20th century version of the American dream: a home in the suburbs, a repair shop that’ll support them both (boy, those were the days), no crazy super-shenanigans.

( ‘‘We’ve got to BLEND IN to small-town New Hampshire life, honey! That means we vote Republican now! We’re not like those big-time city slickers from CONCORD!’’ )

I--I don't understand.

I've committed to dying for the Achaeans. I will gladly do so.

Why, then, do you insist on bringing me to some "game"? I don't do well with games; I never did.

Oi!

[ there’s a decidedly unimpressed scowl set firmly upon her brow, arms crossed and skinny hip cocked - all sharp angles and pointy edges. prickly and snarling and annoyed; perhaps a front to hide the discomfort of nerves simmering in her gut. ]

As much as I enjoy the thrilling adventure of being plucked from home and put in this… quasi-Globalsoftian database or whatever all this is. [ it rears up again : the chill of fear trickling down the back of her neck. she squashes it with a toss of her head and gnash of teeth.] Are you actually planning to do something with me or is this all a passing lark in the virtual bloody park?

[ a stomp of a booted foot to make her point. a beat passes. her arms unfold so her fingers can fiddle with the hem of her skirt.]

I don’t like to leave Gaz alone for too long. The boy is near useless without me.

"I caught the [60s Batman] TV show in reruns after school every weekday. There’d be a great block of shows that I’d run home for: Star Trek, The Monkees, Twilight Zone, etc. There was a lot of cool stuff that hit stores from Batman-mania that Dad and Mom would get for us, so it was always I source of excitement and great joy. When I was asked to do an issue of DC Solo I immediately got together with my big brother, Lee to do our Batman love letter, BATMAN A Go-Go." - Mike Allred

For what purpose have I been summoned? It is not yet All Hallows' Eve.

....Though it is true that we can sense many lost souls around here — perhaps damned to wallow in their own despair, belonging to nowhere and no-one.

Is that it? Do you think we might help them find reprieve?

[ A pause, and he tilts his head lightly to the side as though listening to something before speaking again, knuckles taut within the skin of his gloves as he grasps the handle of his cane tightly, suddenly tense. The man draws in a slow, steadying breath. ]

....It wonders about the rules to this realm. It can tell that things are different. [ ... ] It lusts for more than one soul to claim. Do you now see why it is a danger for me to be conjured forth, here? I do not wish to harm the innocents of this realm. This.... "Dreamwidth."

Giffen plot and breakdowns, DeMatteis script, Hughes pencils.

“Club JLI” (#34) has a real “1970s-1980s movie comedy” vibe. Ex-millionaires Blue Beetle and Booster Gold are still broke and anxious for a new side hustle. Their repo gigs have been getting too depressing, and Booster’s old merchandising and licensing deals don’t bring in much bacon. But they are members of the Justice League International, the highest-profile super-team on the planet! That’s got to be monetizable somehow, right?

Sure it is! And wait until you hear the plan for their new business venture!

( What could go wrong? )
