we all have this secret scenario fantasies, like what would happen if someone found out clark kent was superman and told the world? or what would happen if bruce wayne would run out of money? or something more radical like, what if the waynes had never been killed? you can go from batman as a real vampire (crimson mist) to kal-el having landed on communist russia (red son)...any ideas?
 
Absolute Power

I came up with this idea a while ago, its a superman type story.
A big Metropolis is busy with regular day to day stuff when something disasterous happens.
But lucky them, a caped alien flies in to save them. He is super strong, super fast, has super sight, super hearing, super breat, and is bullet proof.
But the alien hero discovers that his abilties are hard to turn off, if not impossible.
He hears everything, every cry for help, every insult, every smallest sound. And he sees everthing, near and far.
He can't take it anymore. He starts a rampage thoughout the city, destroying buildings, picking up cars and throwing them, melting things with his heat vision. Not the cops, nore the military can stop him it seems.
Then a sleak black cars pull up. A man steps out of one of the cars, he is a well dressed, athletic, bald man. He tells the others the positions to take. The get ready, and he pulls out a bug high tech gun.
He loads some sort of green rock into it, and fires.
The green smoke is enough to weaken the caped alien long enough for them to move in.
The subdue him, and the bald man casually walks up and places another green glowing rock on the alien's chest.

Months later, we see the alien being escorted though the prison by two big armed guards. He is now wearing prison clothing, and round his waist is a glowing green belt.
As he walks down the prison everyone is yelling and making noise, that is until the former caped hero yells very loudly to "SHUT UP!"

The End.

Very short, very loose. but its a start, and meant to be sort of quick.
This is just one of MANY ideas I have.
 
I've been trying to develop this idea for a Superman 'What if ?' story

What if baby Kal-el wasn't raised by the Kents. What if instead of Smallville, he landed in Gotham? What if he was adopted by Thomas and Martha Wayne and given the name Bruce? What if Superman grew up in Batman shoes?
 
Thats a good one,

heres one, what if Kal-el's ship crashed in Gothem instead of Kansas. What if it landed on, and killed, Thomas and Martha Wayne. What if Bruce grew up hating Superman and dedicated his life to killing him?

What if Kal-El landed in Amish country?
What if Kal-el was raised by wolves? (found out there already is a Tarzan Superman from the 70s)

I got more indeapth ones.
 
Lex Luther tries to use the Phantom Zome as a new prison for Earth.
 
What if Krypton had never been destroyed? What if Bruce Wayne's parents had never been killed? What if Princess Diana had never been sent into Man's World? What if Arthur Curry had never discovered his true heritage? What if J'onn J'onnzz had never gone to Earth? What if Abin Sur's power ring never found a successor? What if Barry Allen was ill the day the lightning struck his lab?

What if this was a world without heroes...but full of villains? And when a dark threat arrives to overtake Earth, the task of saving it falls to a pair of estranged aliens, a spoilt rich boy, a prejudiced princess, a gawky scientist, and an arrogant test pilot.
 
REALLY!
I thought I was being so original.
I drew this picture of Superman, based on a pose of superman, and drew him as an Amish guy.

Wow, another idea I had without knowing that someone else had it years before me.

Been done: Speeding Bullets ;)
 
What happened in Speeding Bullets? I mean besides him landing in Gothem and being adopted by the Waynes?

What if Spider-Man was created by DC Comics? What would he be like?
What would he look like, act like, what would his origins be?
 
Just got a really good idea for an elsworlds ongoing series,

Its sort of like Marvel's M2 or Spider-Girl.

Its DC's not too distant future:
it takes place about twenty years, maybe less, into the future.
Bruce has retired, and left Gothem to Tim Drake (former Robin).
Maybe Bruce settled down with Selina Kyle or Talia.
Dick Grayson is now an older and more bitter man (like Batman was)
Billy Batson is now an adult, and looking for someone to pass the power of SHAZAM to.
Superman is still active,
Lois and Clark had a baby years back, and their child is now a teenager in high school about to go through major changes.

The book would be pretty much Spdier-girl, but with DC characters. showing things that would eventually happen in DC if the characters aged.
 
damn, wish i had seen the speeding bullets post before, i knew that one had allready been done. actually a friend of mine is going to lend it to me tomorrow lol:)....anyway, i'm glad my first thread started well, keep posting
 
I wanna see an elseworld that goes into more depth on that Leauge of heros from the Crime Syndicate earth that appeared in Kurt Busieks arc on JLA. I think the Riddler lead the team along with a bunch of other villains.
 
I wouldn't mind seeing a follow up story showcasing Clark and Diana's child from Kingdom Come.
 
i want an elseworld where bruce jones wrote a nightwing that didnt suck
 
ok, i have two elseworlds, the second i'm still developing and might write out.
The first one, which can NEVER happen because the two companies that own them are near sworn enemies.
Superman:Star Wars:
Jor-el, during the launch of Kal-El, accidently trips and changes the coordinates where Kal would arrive. He fears he has doomed him because it is a desert planet.
He lands, 1 year after the fall of the Republic, on Tatooine. He is found by Obi-Wan Kenobi, and is named Clar Kenobi. His powers are stronger, because of the Twin Suns, and is taught the ways of the jedi, even though he has no force powers. The whole events of the first movie happen, until Obi-wan dies. In a fit of rage and anger, Clar flies through the Death Star, tearing it to shreds. Vader barely escapes and Tarkin still dies.
The battle of Hoth never happens, because the Rebels are safe on Yavin IV.
With a new weapon of immense power on their side, the Empire falls without all of the bloodshed seen in the films. He meets a holojournalist working with the rebels named Lo Lan, and falls instantly in love with her. Without a need for a secret identity, he is called Clar or Superman by everyone. He helps Luke restore the Jedi order, but leaves to find Krypton. Returning 3 years later, he finds the Galaxy in shambles due to the invading Yuuzhan Vong, and this begins a huge cliffhanger.

Ok.. the second has Superman as a villian in another galaxy.
Kryptons' explosion sent the ship of course and to a dark planet of evil.
We never see this though. We just learn that a dark man named Kaliban with an army of Clones has invaded the planet if Athens, and completely destroyed it. He isn't the main character, three siblings are.
the twins-Troy and Argos and their sister Anyada are on a mission for the Impire before they arrive to the Ruins of Athens. They each have superpowers, and were selected due to their genecodes.
Troy is known as Blader, due to the lightblades that come out of his hands. he is also immune to the othe lightblades and lasers.
Argos is known as Sorcer and has near infinite control over magic.
Anyada is known as Magna, because of her ability to contol magnetic and gravitic forces.
The rest I'm still working on, but I know that the Impire won't be evil, and Kaliban will kill Emperor Bourne, because Prime Minister Attackus will be on Kalibans side.
Kaliban won't be revealed as Kal-El til the end of the series

No it's a part of continuity, it's in the history of the DC universe in 52.
 
No that's Dick "bat-mullet" Grayson. It's not an elseworld. I think Prodigal came out right after Zero Hour. And why the hell am I hearing music on this page?
 
yeah, I heard music on this page too once.
I think it was the advertisement at the top of the page.
 
Either that or you were having a stroke
