Exploring the DCU: Part 5
Talking with Mr. Kent confirmed that he was powerless. Fortunately, he allowed me to use the JLA's personal ship. Right before I began lifting off I thought I heard a distant *thud* on the back of my ship... Must be debris from the take off. I set the ship on an autopilot ship to Mars and kick back and sleep...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Several hours later, I wake up. Apparently we've arrived on Mars, and it's quite different than the dead planet of Mars from my earth. It still has cities and--wait, the ships... they're lifting off of the planet! I watch in awe as the platoons of ships evacuate the planet. It begins to shake violently. Clearly I am seeing the end of th--ugh! I feel a strong whack on the back of my head. I stagger and collapse.
"That was no mere debris that hit the back of your vehicle! No, it was I, stowing away with mere seconds to spare before your ship took off! Now, kneel beneath my feet, Martian! Kneel beneath the feet of--the Red Rhino!"

Red Rhino? Definitely sounds like a DC villain.

You can tell just by the name?

Of course you can. A marvel villian usually has a one word name. Like vulture, or Juggernaut. Personally I consider myself a DC-ish villain with the marvel anti-hero disdain for law and order. Yet still not be able to hurt the innocent

Maybe Red Rhino should take J'onn back to the 1980's. Then we can see how much of a retcon the merging of Heroes United Earths did to the timeline.
Of course, J'onn still can't do crossovers-- but at least he can show us the late 1980's X-Men, Avengers and JLA, plus familiar HU characters as when they were in their origins, or as children, or not yet born, etc.

Of course, Red Rhino would have to outsmart the Monitors first, and J'onn would have to visit the 1980's of my Earth before returning to his own world, if not his own time...
