Superman vs. Batman

If the Civil War had taken place in the DCU I can see Bats and Supes on opposing sides. Batman would probably take the role of Captain America and Superman the spot of Iron Man. Somehow things would factor out to being Lex Luthors fault but not until it was too late and Supes had killed Batman. Probably going on some crazy head trip and rippin' him in half. It would turn into one of those stories where everyone gets they morals and loyalties tested. As for who would be on who's side...that's tough but I'll try a few.
Team Batman
- Vixen
- Green Lantern
- The Flash
- Robin
- Wonder Woman
- Atom
- Green Arrow (Connor Hawke)
- Zatanna
- Huntress
- Metamorpho
- Animal Man
- Oracle
Team Superman
- Nightwing
- Green Arrow (Oliver Queen)
- Raven
- Black Canary
- Martian Manhunter (undercover for Team Batman)
- Booster Gold
- Doctor Fate
- Aquaman
- Atom Smasher
- Captain Marvel
- Elongated Man
- Hawkgirl
- Gypsy
That's just a few for each side, of course there'd be the villains, neutral parties and such not to mention the people who would simply walk away from the idea.
When I think villains gone good...

Shhh...Secret!
By LightBright 1 Comments
I would most definetely keep my identity a secret. For the basic reasons of course. Loved ones, personal life and such. I know it would seem easier to just out myself right away, but the domino effect would most likely take place. I don't think it would be as fun to be a super hero if everyone knew your true identity. The only up side of being public is that you could maybe use your crime fighting as an excuse for late projects, missed dinners, work days missed, etc.
Secret identities also add a sense of mystery, which keeps the fans interested. :D

~Currently~
I fight alonside the Mighty Avengers again. Leave New York for L.A once again. Taskmaster comes for me! Is this the end?
I didn't take me long to get a job at a scummy pizza parlour tossing some pies. It also didn't take long for me to get back into the old game of crime fighting. It turned out that it was just some losers in Spandex trying to make some quick cash. Armed robbery, however, isn't the smartest way to get some money into your piggy bank. I was only a couple of blocks away so I made it in no time. No one else was there yet, not even the cops. So I did the dumb thing and just went right in. I was used to jerks that think they have the upper hand just because they've got guns, but these guys were different. I didn't figure it out until it was a little too late. These guys were hopped up on MGH. Stupid drugs!
Anyways, it's a pretty good fight and I manage to take down the losers with wings, flame breath and a spiky tail before the guy the size of King Kong gets the jump on me. I honestly didn't know what had hit me and I was out like a light. I don't know how long I was under, but the next thing I know I'm wide awake rubbing my head. Not believing what I'm seeing. Six kids and a dinosaur are trying to take on the MGH freaks. I'm at a loss for words. First of all, a dinosaur is a bit freaky to see in the 21st century and secondly there are some kids about to get creamed by the losers that had knocked me down!
I yell at them to get lost and the goth one tells me to just calm down and stay out of it. Like she's the boss of me or something. Of course I have no intention of letting some snot nosed Emo tell me what to do, especially when not only her life and her friends lives are at stake, but also the lives of every innocent person in the bank. I scramble to my feet just the Hispanic kid leaps into the air after the guy with wings. I want to get back in the fight, I need to get back in the fight. I run up to the King Kong guy, but some blonde kid wearing a hat grabs my arm and tells me to just stay down and let them do their job.
"WHAT JOB!" I yell, bursting into my star like form and soaring into the air.
I "Runaway"
After a couple of weeks I completely forgot about the kids at the bank. Actually I generally tried to distance myself from anything "super heroic" going on in L.A. As far as I was concerned it wasn't really my problem.
I was happy. I had a nice life. Though most people liked to take advantage of me at the office I managed well enough. It seemed like everyone just wanted to overwhelm me and make me do their paper work. I was flustered most of the time and frustrated all the other time. I was never really treated equally because of my young age, however I did get to know a lot of important people. No one like Mr. Stark himself, but close enough. I know people, who know people, who know him. But the job wasn't important to me anyways. I was more into the fact that I had a semi-normal life. Being a mutant isn't all it's cracked up to be and I savour every bit of normality I get.
It didn't last too long, why should it?
As I made my way to work one day there was explosion that practically destroyed a building further down the street. I can't help myself. It's instinct to go and find out what's going on. Maybe I could help. To my ultimate surprise I see those kids again, the ones that by now, I've learned to call the Runaways. I don't want anyone hurt or worse so I get involved. They seem just as surprised to see me as I was them. But this time The baddies aren't some loser mutant wannabe's. They're the real deal.
I gave it all I had and (with a little co-operation between me and the Runaways) the whole thing was wrapped up in a matter of minutes. This time when the cops came I didn't run off in the opposite direction. I didn't get the chance. A giant frog like machine cut me off and I was dragged aboard before I or anyone else could think.
No one seemed to object to me being aboard the vessel so I just sat down and shut up. I was introduced to the team one by one. Molly, Nico, Karolina, Xavin, Victor and Chase. I introduced myself and Molly seemed really happy to know I was a mutant. So happy she hugged me. And so began my new life as one of the Runaway.
My life as a Runaway
I'd never really had anyone but Mr.W in my life. I didn't make friends because I was a closet mutant and I didn't have pets because I travelled too much. So I was a little out of place with the Runaways.
Molly quickly attached herself to my hip. I couldn't go anywhere without her being there. Not that it mattered, I really liked her and it was nice to be around her. I'd never thought about having a little sister, but I loved it. Or what I thought it would be like anyways. Molly wanted me to be her mentor, her sister, her mother. She and I were almost inseparable, this was mostly thanks to her.
We got off to a rocky start. He was really reluctant at first, even though his feelings towards me were so obvious Molly could spot them out.
I quickly got tired of making all the moves--first, second, tenth, hundredth--so I stopped trying. I figured that either he would admit how he felt or we would never bother each other in that way again.
Then finally.
It came at the weirdest time. We were all in the middle of some crazy fight with Rhino. Molly was starting to get tired, Nico was running out of grade two words, Victor was whizzing around bending girders. I fired all my energy at Rhino trying to slow him down. Chase sicked Old Lace on the big lug. Nothing was working. For a minute I lost concentration on what I was doing and was knocked out of the air by a giant hand. And who caught me before I hit the ground? Chase, of course. One minute we were staring at each other and the next moment he was kissing me on the lips.
This was the beginning of our relationship. Much to Nico's displeasure. I don't know why she seemed to hate me so much, as I'd never done anything to her.
I lose my first true home, family and love
I spent four months with the Runaways. Chase and I became closer, Molly never left my side and even Nico seemed to warm to me.
I all happened so quickly. No one saw it coming and no one really saw it end. We were just out getting some food and hanging out. Chase held my hand the whole way to the store.
I blacked out and when I awakened I found myself surround in rubble. Everyone near me was unconscious and covered in rubble. I saw Chase lying unmoving. I thought he was dead. Even poor Molly had been blown away. I thought I'd killed them all. My entire family. My first true love. It was all gone in a flash of light. I decided I was too dangerous to be around anyone I cared about. So I left. I flew and flew until I couldn't go any further.
Next stop the Big Apple
I went to the place I thought was the furthest away I could get. I'd only ever been through New York, never actually in it. It was a lot different than L.A and this time I had a harder time settling in.
However it's pretty hard to be a low level hero when your power lights up the sky and can cause pretty major damage to any buildings nearby. Also, being a mutant doesn't ever help either. I know that at anytime I could have just turned in the spandex but I didn't want to. Where was the fun in that?
One time I made my way to Hell's Kitchen, not on purpose or anything, that's just where the fight led me. I have to say that no one in the Kitchen was very happy to see me. Well, at least the guys with the horns. Dare Devil practically booted my behind out of his precious kitchen. He can be a really big jerk sometimes.
I get schooled, in every way
It wasn't long before I figured out that you can only live life purely as a hero for so long before you start to miss the simple pleasures in life, like hot showers and comfy beds. I figured that maybe Mr. W could get me hooked up in some school, at least for one last year and help me find a place to live for a while. Good old Mr. W always coming through for me!
I got good grades, really good, so I ended up taking advanced courses. Not a lot of my friends were in them, but I wanted to do my best so I took them anyways. I ended up making a new friend in my Pure Math class. Peter Parker. He was super sweet and helped me when I was stuck with a question. I thought it extremely cute how he would always get flustered around me.
The thing was, I felt as awkward around Peter as he acted around me. It was a good awkward though. I was falling in love with Peter Parker.
What goes around...
I went for a long time thinking that I'd never have anyone like Chase in my life again. That was until one night I was out unwinding (in other words doing super hero things). I was still doing everything I could to attract zero attention. Until I was forced to act. I was forced to jump into action when the freak named Electro. Since Electro is one of Spidey's guys I wasn't too surprised to have him show up and help me take down the loser. I was, however, a little weirded out when he followed me to a roof top and starting talking to me. It was like he knew me, or wanted to know me anyways.
It wasn't long before Spidey and I really hit it off. I never told him my secret identity and he never told me his, but on some level it was like we knew each other. We loved each other. From then on we fought crime together and had make out time after. It was great. I was once again happy, and this time I felt like it could really stay that way.
Then, one day everything changed again. I was headed to History Class when Peter grabbed me and pulled me into a janitors closet. I thought he was insane. He starting telling me he was Spider-Man and that he knew I was Light Bright. He wanted to be able to kiss me without having to fight crime first or roll up his mask. I agreed that that was a good idea and we started going out as Peter and Jen.
They come for me...whether I like it or not
Eventually I lost the Sentinels and hid in a small town outside the city. I cried myself to sleep that night. The next morning I woke up to someone calling my name. In my head. It was a woman's voice and was soon joined by a man's. I followed the voices outside the Motel I'd been staying in and was greeted by the X-Men.
Welcome to the X-Men
I didn't really have anywhere else to go and Professor Xavier was offering me the chance to control my powers. After all the trouble they'd caused me, I figured it was a good idea. I took him up on his offer and asked Mr. W to pay my tuition. He seemed a little nervous about me joining a team of mutants that fought other dangerous mutants. I was liking it more and more.
It didn't take me long to prove myself to be a valuable member of the team. However, I stayed detached emotionally. I didn't want any friends. I didn't want love. I didn't want a family. No one I could hurt. I focused myself on working on my powers instead. I wanted to control them more than anything else.
Things get messed up. In my head
I have always been of sound mind, but from the moment I joined the X-Men I knew something was wrong with my head. It seemed like no matter how much
The hard way.
My own personal hell
I think every single mutant should be afraid of losing control of their powers. That should be their worst fear. Not human hatred, not Sentinels, nothing else. Just losing control.
Or someone forcing you to lose control.
Apparently my mind is easy to tap into or something. Maybe it's because I'm so open. It turns out that's a problem when the Phoenix wants to use you for her own diabolical purposes.
As it turns out, that's exactly what the Dark Phoenix wanted. Someone that could destroy the world. All she had to do was force me to lose control. And guess what...she pulled it off. Soon I couldn't turn it off. I was stuck as a living star. I ended up almost losing myself completely to the Dark Phoenix. She consumed my every thought until she almost owned my entire mind. She was everywhere all the time. Urging me to do wrong. I begged Prof Xavier to do something, but he was powerless against Phoenix. Everyone was...
Oh, thanks S.H.E.I.L.D
So what happens to you when you become a danger to the entire planet? Nick Fury sends his goons to collect you and contain you until the "problem" is "solved".
I don't know how long S.H.E.I.L.D kept me in that containment chamber, all I do know is that the whole time I dreamt about getting out. Apparently, on the outside world, Mr. W had been working on a way to control my powers and cool me down enough so that I could leave. Turns out my problems were all really solved when the X-Men finally dealt with Dark Phoenix. Fury, however, didn't let me out right away and when he did, he made sure I knew he was watching me. Big brother much?
Life goes on...
It turns out that I was in the containment chamber longer than I thought. Three years had gone by. Everything
I was tired of important people getting lost in my life. I was tired of having my heart broken. I was tired of being used and I was tired of other people ruling my life. So I left Jennifer Michaels behind.
I changed my name to Laura Dane and tried out for the Great Lakes Avengers. And guess what? I made the cut! I was officially a reserve member. To be called upon at any time. I built my own business. A law firm for the underprivileged (and heroes on the side). Somewhere in my life a great guy gave me the idea...right before he booted me from his kitchen!
After a while I decided to go back to L.A and try my luck again with my crime fighting skills. I bid my GLA buddies goodbye and set off. I was now ready for my whole new life.
All In All, Things Turn Out Okay
After leaving the GLA and returning to L.A I met Simon Williams (Wonder Man) and we hit it off. We were more or less a couple but we didn't really have anything magical between us. So as my love life seems to go I ended up leaving Simon and L.A. Why do I always seem to run away? Beats me. However once again I found something better in New York. I'm sure how but somehow I caught Clint Barton's hawkeye and what can I say, we fell in love.
Clint and Beyond
I was super happy with Clint. The two of us were pretty much a perfect match. I admit he was totally hot and extremely sweet once you got past all those layers. It was around this time that I started to get recruited by a lot of different teams. I was approached and accepted into the Mighty Vine Avengers and Omega Flight. (I'm happy to be on both teams even still) I even got to do a solo mission with the MVA, however, it ended up being a job to save Wonder Man from A.I.M. Boy was that fun. (Check that mission out here: http://www.comicvine.com/myvine/operation_lightning_storm/) I got into a bit of trouble while rescuing Simon, but luckily for me my team leader, Thunderbolt, helped me out in the end.
I was really happy once again. Happy to be on teams, happy to have an awesome boyfriend and...well...just plain happy! But, if you know me then you know nothing good ever lasts too long in my life.
Spider-Man 2: The Sequel
If there's one thing you should know about Spider-Man, it's that he is very persistent. He wouldn't stop trying to convince me that we belonged together. I told
Even after Spidey convinced me I was still resistant. I didn't want to just go to him because I was on the re-bound. I wanted it to be real love, like we'd had before. My heart didn't let me take that much time to consider my options and it wasn't long before I was with Spider-Man again.
But...
On the day we truly reconciled I found something in my purse. I didn't know how it got there or where it came from but the writing on the picture was clear enough...
...So who's the daddy?
Dark Secrets Revealed
Everyone makes bad choices every now and again. Scratch that; everyone makes uninformed choices every now and again. Me, I've made plenty, but none
So yes, I had a one nighter with Deadpool, but whatever, right? It was years ago. Right after I got out of the S.H.E.I.L.D. base, but before I met Simon. I wasn't in great condition seeing as I'd just missed three years of my life. I don't know what really drove me to fall for everyone's favourite Merc With A Mouth, but I did. So we had a thing.
It started out as just talking. I was sulking around looking for some bad guy to take my frustrations out on when he bumped into me.
And after all the talking one thing led to another, led to another, led to our thing.
Of course I had to tell Spidey about all this when we got back together. I'd neglected to tell Simon or Clint, mainly because I was embaraced by what I'd done. But with Peter I felt I had to, I didn't want to lie anymore than I had to and it was good to get it off my chest. I really, really thought it was nothing, but trust me, it only gets bigger (and worse) from here.
Ghosts From The Future Will Haunt You
It was long after I found out about my future daughter that Deadpool showed up in my life again. He likes to bug me apparently. It couldn't just be chance that he came back as soon as I found about my future child. I had only one person I could turn to at this point. Mr. W. He seemed to always have all the answers I needed. Plus, he was always there for me before. So, just like before, Mr. W aided me in my time of need. He had pictures, he had folders, he had packets of information. Her name was going to be Ashleen Dane (Wilson). She was my and Deadpool's child in the future. Her powers would be regeneration and master illusions. It was eerie to find out about my future like this, but also reassuring. In the future, Peter and I are married and he's helping me take care of Ash. (Pictures soon)
Back To The Present...And Far Worse Problems
Things only got worse when my old team the Mighty Avengers starting having some major problems of their own. We had only had one mission together during the Secret Invasion, but the team had pretty much gotten broken up after that. I only met up again with them to help prevent The Death of Thunderbolt.
After hanging out with my old teammates for a bit I decided to take a break from team crime fighting. I wanted alone time and the only way I could get that was to leave New York for a while. I had no set destination just the idea that anywhere but here was good enough.
I ended up back in L.A again. I stayed away from al my old contacts and acted like a tourist. I took in the sights and took a break. I was having a good time...until the night he came for me.
I would never forget the face of the man that killed my parents. I thought I was safe from him. I used all the training Mr. W had taught to me. It wasn't enough. Taskmaster was too good...

Seriously, though, not a chance. I don't really see the perks. Sure you're a telepath and all, but come on. You need ramps to get everywhere. The majority will probably say yes, but think about it. Really. Prof. X isn't very happy about not having legs. Poor bald dude.
Oh and BTW, to all you people who said No to Daredevils powers and Yes to Prof. X's...insane, much?
