I had originally reached out to select writers to garner interest, and it looks like it's there! So, we'd like to get DC2K's first special release underway. As the title suggests, Villains Month will give each of us the opportunity to write a one-shot focusing on a past, present, or future villain from our respective books.
I'm obviously in, using Joker, and Patrick has said that he's working on a Harvey/Ivy story. Tobias was going to work with Darkseid. Travis called out the Brotherhood/Vandal Savage. I believe that Jake was going to do a Red Hood story (as a villain? oooo dipping into the past there). John wanted to use Fish Mooney.
Anyone else want to play? We don't have this scheduled yet, but once we get the stories in I'll do a special release.

After my western, I had so much fun writing Vandal Savage in the past, that's what I'm doing for my story. So, if anyone wants the Brotherhood of evil, they are free.

I think you meant me not John. 😂Yes I will be using this one shot to tell some back story on Fish Mooney and her well let’s just say rather long history with both Gotham, certain friends founding families and the Gotham Underworld. I like Maria Mooney but I’m pretty much giving her a whole new origin story that will be shown in time.

My Harley and Ivy will feature other female Batman villains like Roxy Rocket and Baby Doll, as Harley and Ivy plan to form an all girl faction similar to the Sinister Six or Villainy Inc.

I'm really hoping someone does a Sinestro, Atrocitus, or LarFleeze story

Why? DC has been soft rebooted like 5 times. Another one wouldn't hurt.

Yeah, current DC continuity doesn't exactly line up with DC2K's continuity (thankfully in some cases, otherwise Connor, Bart, Mindwarp, Chris/Powerboy, and a bunch of others wouldn't be here).

Exactly. DC2K has Ted Kord still alive

Soft rebooting isn’t that bad but I would honestly like to keep some of it at least a majority of what has happened in the past. There’s a lot of good things In the past to build a future with. You never know what can and will probably happen in the future.

You never know what can and will probably happen in the future. Yeah, but the major thing I'd like to excise from pretty much all DC's history is the needless "Oh, we don't know what to do with this character so let's kill them for shock value" thing they do everytime they want to bury a character.

Hadn't really thought much about how we sync up with the current 52 until I was working on an idea featuring a golden age character and realized there is no JSA.
Then I just got sad...
