HEAD CANON: THE LINEAGE OF MILES MORALES

Image
  The reason Jessica Jones was created for the original “Alias” comic is because Jessica Drew (Spider-Woman) was unavailable, as she was going to feature heavily in a Skrull-themed plot. So, if one does not want to have yet another woman superhero-turned-private investigator character added to their roster... just use the classic Jessica Drew! Jessica Jones and Luke Cage (Power Man) eventually become lovers. With this in mind... What if Jessica (Drew) and Cage had an early romantic encounter when she was starting her superhero career? One that resulted in her getting pregnant? Unwilling to give up her newfound heroic career, Jessica temporarily steps out of the spotlight, has her child in secret, and gives it up for adoption. This child is later adopted by Jefferson and Rio Morales... and from them is named Miles. Later, when he starts going into puberty, Miles begins to develop some of his parents' superhuman powers, especially his biological mother's bio-electrokinet...

BATMAN TIMELINE

Image
According to many who read DC comics, Batman is "perpetually in his mid 30s."  It is not possible for Bruce Wayne (aka Batman) to be “perpetually 30.” He has had too many protégé characters come through his life for that to be possible. Simply based on their various ages, it places Bruce in his mid to late-40s, at the very least! Let's make a basic timeline based on known Batman information and see, shall we? Year 0 – Bruce Wayne is born to Dr. Thomas and Martha Wayne Year 6 – Bruce Wayne discovers the Bat Cave under the property of Wayne Manor. Year 8 – June 26: Thomas and Martha Wayne are murdered by Joe Chill (In the JLU episode 'Kid Stuff,' Batman says: “I haven't been a kid since I was eight years old.”) ?? - Bruce vows to “fight crime!” Year 18 – Bruce Wayne graduates high school and goes to college to get his degree (so he can join the FBI, when he becomes eligible at 23). Year 20 – Bruce Wayne graduates with a 2-year business degree. However,...

Building a Fantasy Timeline, Part 2: Inspiration Orcus!

Image
  Inspiration: Orcus! When building a timeline for one's D&D fantasy game, it is hard to find a master villain who is more important and has more machinations than the Demon Prince of Undeath: Orcus! Only Tiamat outclasses this demon lord in terms of the number of adventures and scenarios seeded with the presence of this villain. So, let's take a look at what we have to work with in terms of Orcus-related adventure modules... The Throne of Bloodstone (1988) The Great Modron March (October, 1997) Dead Gods (November, 1997) Savage Tide: Enemies of My Enemy (August 2007) Keep on the Shadowfell (May 2008) Demon Queen's Enclave (October 2008) Assault on Nightwyrm Fortress (March 2009) Death's Reach (April 2009) Kingdom of the Ghouls (June 2009) Prince of Undeath (October 2009) Out of the Abyss (September 2015) The Throne of Bloodstone So, basically, there is this Witch King dude named Zhengyi. He's been invested with so much power from the demon...
