On All-Star Batman?

Hippokrene's got a fantastic post up explaining the sheer amusement factor of a certain Frank Miller comic.

Hippokrene's argument really reminds me of the appealing aspects of a multiverse: the funhouse mirrors to our characters.

So of course, in the replies, I post my idea of the "Miller-verse funhouse mirror" of Hal Jordan:

For example, looking at Hal, he seems so normal even in the issues. But, since it's the Miller-verse, you know he must go home to three underaged prostitutes, all male, a fifteen year old african american, a thirteen year old redhead and a nine year old black-haired boy with a penchant for killing and eating his female clients.

Mostly because Alexandra DeWitt in the fridge becomes really REALLY funny to me this way.

Besides, if Batman gets to kidnap some poor acrobatic orphan and make him eat rats in the Batcave, Hal Jordan can have a "Green Lantern Corps" made up of his little beringed prostitute friends.

The potential for costumes ALONE...dear lord.

Actually though, the really interesting (read: scary, mind-boggling and crazy making) portrayal would be that of the JSA...

God in heaven, picture them for a second. Jay. Alan. Wildcat. Sandy. KARA...

Heheheh. Miller-verse Power Girl. What a horrible, revolting, absolutely delightful mental image.

Thank you, Mr. Miller. Your work really doesn't tend toward my tastes, but the comics world and the landscape of my twisted imagination are richer for your presence. :-)
