I for one would much rather see John talents focused on a Golden Age JSA book than a JLA book set today.
John did you ever persue talking to DC about a JSA book?

I've lost count of the number of times I have asked for the JSA.

JSA

JB,

I'd love to see a JSA project from you. If not an ongoing series, it would be cool to see your work on either a JSA: Year One or a JSA: Incarnations limited series.

Try and tie the JSA in with Doom Patrol (flashback)

I too would love to see JB's take on the JSA. I would also like to see a JSA/Invaders crossover. I really enjoyed the Captain America/Batman story and think that JSA/Invaders by JB would be fantastic. Since the Avengers/JLA crossover has been so successful, maybe this could be a possibility. Too good to be true, probably.

It's plotted. All I need is somewhere to put it.

I would think with JSA being a hit for DC and the Invaders preparing to relaunch, there's a market for a JSA/Invaders one-shot or limited series.

Touchy subject of course but I was wondering if this book would be possible under present circumstances?

When you do a DC Marvel Crossover Book are you working for both companies in the strictest sense of the word? Perhaps and easier question would be who pays you?

The crossovers have traditionally been shopped thru one house. DARKSEIDvsGALACTUS I did thru Marvel, BATMAN&CAPTAIN AMERICA I did thru DC.

i personally would LOVE to see JSA/Invaders by JB!!
Hopefully the attention he's getting with JLA and DPATROL
will convince the "powers that be" that this is a crossover
worth greenlighting...

-C!

crossovers

April 12 2004, 1:02 AM 

JB,after all crossovers, the one that I've always wanted to see you do was Superman-Captain America.
I know that the personality similarities might seem to make for a boring story. I just think that the two of them against a combined force of Darkseid with his Parademons and Hiter with his Nazi army would be the Battle Royal of the Century. And I can't see anyone else but you pulling it off.

A sequel to the Batman/Captain America crossover?Featuring The Invaders and the JSA? ... AND its already plotted? Why isn't a project like that, not green lighted already?
I remember how painful it was to read certain DC comics, when that company,seemed hellbent on killing or crippling the members of the JSA.

We should start an online petition and submit it to the respective powers-that-be at both companies.

I'm serious. Some editors do listen. For example, I sent Mark Chiarello an idea about publishing a pencils-only edition of Jim Lee's Batman work like Marvel did with their "Rough Cuts" editions, and he responded by saying he thought it was a great idea and would look into it.

Doesn't mean that it will happen but what do we have to lose? Can you imagine how cool JSA/Invaders would be?

I have a great image in my head of JB's Captain America and Wonder Woman standing back-to-back, surrounded by a dozen Nazis, and smiling ....

Word back from TPTB at DC this morning, that there are no further cross-company crossovers planned for the immediate future.

(I could say something snarky about how this should mean there will be six by the end of the year, all by Brits and all deconstructionist -- but I won't.)

Oops! I stand corrected. JB, can you elaborate a bit on the reason(s) why this would be a bad idea? Thanks.

I love the Golden Age, even when it's a modern comic that takes place during that time period. I would looove to see this book!

Seems to me it would be a perfect time to plan a JSA/Invaders elseworlds project.There's a growing buzz on the JSA series.....and Marvel is planning a new Invaders title.....plus Quentin Tarantino's next project is a World War 2 film called Inglorious Bastards.
In these troubled times, we need to see Nazis being beaten like a drum,by the bravest superheroes of 2 companies.

When asked about future DC-Marvel crossovers at the
recent Wizard World (LA?), Joey the Q just said,
"No".

The news page I read this on didn't seem to have
any sort of follow up information.

JSA would be really cool.

I'd rather have an ongoing, or limited JSA only (or JSA|JLA) than a M*rv*l\DC crossover.

______________________________________________________

And you can probably thank good old Joe Quesada for that one. I recall reading of his exploits at some Wizard Con, where he said that there would be no crossovers with DC, and then promptly played that stupid phone call joke at the expense of Dan Didio (at least I think it was him). I can't say I blame the heads of DC for not wanting to work with such an immature lame-brain as Quesada. Still, JSA/Invaders...yum.

Byrne JSA in Wonder Woman

April 14 2004, 7:26 AM 

I think JB's handling of the JSA in his run on Wonder Woman was some of his best work...both in writing and art...

If that did not convince DC that JB should have launched the JSA book, I don't know what would have.

Daniel

ps This is my first posting, so I am not sure if it is appropriate to state how bad I think the JSA book has been handled since it was launched and to question what DC was thinking in NOT giving the book to JB. Well, I guess I just did...

I have been enjoying JSA, like a bunch of people here. The rotating artistic teams get on my nerves, but I like what Geoff Johns (and David Goyer) have been doing with the characters. It feels more like old-school AVENGERS, in terms of membership churn and slam-bang stories, than any other book I read. And for me, that's a good thing!

That said, I would have LOVED to see JB do a monthly JSA book. To my memory he was working at Marvel on HIDDEN YEARS when the new JSA series was launched, so it's not really a surprise that the job didn't fall into his lap.

JSA/Invaders

April 14 2004, 10:54 AM 

Actually, I'd like to see two JSA/Invader crossovers, JB's, and one by Roy Thomas, perhaps with Jerry Ordway.

Because if there was a JSA/Invaders without Roy, I'd worry about his mental well-being.
