Possible titles for JSA, Shazam (Heavily teased in Rebirth special)
Matthew Carter
I just hope that DC announce the line-up of JLA by Orlando, all of this hinting and guessing its annoying Oh and a Harley and Ivy mini NOT by Palmiotti and Conner
Oliver Sullivan
I am willing to bet actual money that the new Justice League title that spins out of JL vs SS will have Harley on it.
This is the future we have built for ourselves.
Benjamin Reyes
Holy fuck, so Hickman really jumped ships to DC, huh?
Angel Jackson
Not only that, but Palmiotti and Conner have been hinting at Batman/Harley Quinn.
Jace Jackson
Well if Lex could, why not Harley?
Aiden Brooks
I would be okay with this.
If only because there has never been a good Batman romance and this is at least stupid enough that it could be fun for 5 minutes. Where have they been teasing this?
Jacob Morales
But she's in Suicide Squad, surely she can't be in two teams at once, right?
Matthew Murphy
Palmiotti and Conner have been hinting this in their comics, where Harley apparently is obsessed about Bruce Wayne, the playboy.
And no, this would be fucking stupid.
Carter Parker
She's popular enough now to be on as many teams as they need her to be
Colton Allen
>this is at least stupid enough that it could be fun for 5 minutes.
That's the thing, those two will stretch it for more than 5 minutes, it will be for a least 4 hours minimum. They don't know when to stop
Gabriel Perez
>And no, this would be fucking stupid.
Of course it would be, but every attempt DC has made to give Bruce a romantic partner that isn't Catwoman has been either boring or stupid or both.
This one is at least temporary by design.
Benjamin Smith
Only one I'm 99% sure will be in the JLA roster is Martian Manhunter.
Brody Long
Kevin Smith's comics don't count. They are always stupid.
Catwoman relationship in the reboot was also awful. Batman shouldn't have a relationship. He works better as a single father.
Jose Rodriguez
I certainly hope not.
The dude is a mediocre writer and DC has signed too many of those already.
Jackson Hill
Either her or Killer Frost, since Frost is gonna be a main character in JLvSS seemingly out of nowhere.
Caleb Price
I'd prefer Killer Frost to Harley to be honest.
Colton Thomas
I hope they give her a redesign, her New 52 one suuuucks
Owen Sanders
they'll probably redesign her to make her look more like the superhero girls and flash
so white or blue hair, wearing blue, and really pale skin
Nolan Ramirez
>A possible Jonathan Hickman title. Could definitely see it happening, his indie titles aren't doing particularly well.
Lincoln Stewart
It's really hard to think of a reason as to why Hickman would tour DC if he had zero interest in working with them.
David Lopez
Hey fuck you, Silver was great in the Englehart/Rogers run.
Jack Perry
The dude can't do more than 3 and a half issues of one either
