Dave said that we should maybe do mini series. I know about the Red Hood one coming up, but what about other M2K and DC2K minis with characters who aren't dibbed and can be used in their own mini titles.
Thoughts and ideas?

The only character I really want to write at DC at the moment is Enchantress, drawing from all of the stories established around her in a high-mysticism approach. Other than that I was working on a miniseries about Killer Frost for Marvel Omega but, as I hadn't gotten around to proposing it, I just posted it directly to Wattpad. I enjoy strong female characters, particularly since they're often so under represented. I think in terms of people being interested in writing miniseries, as well as utilising those that aren't dibbed, there's no harm in taking it as an opportunity to expand one of your cast members in a team title as an individual in a self-titled miniseries.

You might like Project Argent on M2K then...

I have an idea where we could build to a creation of the justice league dark with a mini series or maybe a string of one shots?

You might like Project Argent on M2K then... I’ll give it a shot John. It might be nice to chill with some reading when I get back from doing work in the library! I’ve written for sites that have done a round table approach before. To use Justice League Dark as an example: it could be like two miniseries in one. Everyone who wants to write choose a character, then they write an Origins issue for the site, followed by each writer taking an issue of Justice League Dark to tell a cohesive story. It’s all easily kept track of if there’s a Bible of information and the plot. If there was a cast of five characters with five writers then that would only be two issues each, one origins and one JLD, so it’s manageable with other series already underway. Jason and I did it with the Kingdom for awhile before the project fell through.

I had planned on a Harley and Ivy mini for JLU2001 years ago, but I scraped it after issue 1. Since I'm going back to Harley and Ivy as part of Villains Month, I better get busy on it.
I had planned on a Batman/Green Hornet crossover mini for DC2K, but decided to post it on Wattpad. I like to do minis on Wattpad and fuse them into digital novels like I might do with Batman/Green Hornet as I talked to Dave about it.
Speaking of...I plan to go back to my TMNT series next month and try to get the first arc complete.

I have a mini series planned for later on after we get further into Amazing Spider-Man staring Mac Gargan aka the Scorpion.
Before he was the Scorpion, Mac Gargan was a half way decent private dectective and sometimes the old skills don’t fade they just get better with age. When Gargan starts to suspect something suspicious about his boss Norman Osborn and his new more sane lease on life, he starts to get the old itch to solve a mystery. With his suit packed up Gargan sets out to retrace Norman’s path to a new life. Along the way he’ll face threats and obstacles that will put him on a new path of life. Friends will become enemies and enemies will become partners in the biggest mystery case of Mac Gargans life.

On the DC2K side of things I’m not really sure what kind of mini series I would want to do honestly. I know it would have to be something away from the Batline of things. Maybe something with Connor Kent if it was okay with TC. Take him on a type of walk about around the world and let him explore a bit of life outside the Superman family. I would find it to be fun to bring in someone like Sideways for him to meet along the way as well or the new Damage which could be fun as well. 😂

I have jotting down ideas for the various places he will head to, people he will encounter, as well as who will become his enemies and who will help him during this adventure in order to follow the path Norman took to become the man he is now. I was thinking about bringing back the Cabal of Scrier for this story.

If you are keeping him 'plain clothes' for most of the story, be cool if he encounters other spider-foes outside of work. At some point, we are going to want Gargan in the Scorpion suit duking it out with another bad guy, but the idea of the spider-foes having a kind of loose knit community and interacting in their civilian lives has a lot of potential.
I had a similar idea, but using some c-list DC villains, that reading your idea makes me want to dig up and try and finish. Like those kind of stories that happen on the fringe of an established universe as well as giving personality to minor characters.

I'm also batting around ideas for Miles and/or Gwen after the first couple arcs of Spidey. :-)
