Five Things: Five Golden Age JSA slash pairings nobody thought of, but make an weird sort of sense
rayshell22 asked for Five Golden Age JSA slash pairings nobody thought of, but make an weird sort of sense:
I can't guarentee that no one, *anywhere* has thought of these; but these are at least ones *I* didn't think of before, and don't remember anyone else suggesting.
1. Johnny Thunder/Al Pratt (Atom): JSA Junior Members unite! Young, cranky college student meets young dumb guy with a Thunderbolt! Sparks (literal and figurative!) fly! The JSA's weekest member is paired up with (arguably) the most powerful!
2. Hippolyta (temporally-displaced Golden Age Wonder Woman)/Joan Dale (Miss America): The pairing of retcanonical Wonder Woman replacements. If Young All-Stars count, Fury (Helena Kosmatos) could make it a threesome. :)
3. Kent Nelson (Dr. Fate)/Rex Tyler (Hourman): They can bitch together about their disfunctional relationships to their powers (Helmet of Fate, Miraclo) and then lose control again. And have sex. And never mention it again, except Nabu swears it wasn't *his* idea.
4. Dinah Drake (Black Canary)/Ma Hunkel (Red Tornado): They can run a combined florist's shop/grocery and fight crime far more competently than their menfolk. And little Dinah Lance can be one of the Cyclone Kids.
5. Charles McNider (Dr. Mid-Nite)/Jim Corrigan (Spectre): Experiments in *highly* experimental medicine--or possibly autopsy. In the dark!
