Yes I'm refering to the Justice Guild's home. This is just for a nice fun and healthy discussions. I'm not reading into anything (Concerning my first question).

1. The Injustice Guild lair has a picture of Vandal Savage. The reasoning?
A. He was an urban legend in their world.
B. He was originally a resident of Earth-Two.
C. Earth-Two doppelganger, Nuff said.

2. Anyword if there were suppose to be more Justice Guild members, or just the five we saw? See, Tom Turbine and Catman had elements of the Golden Age Superman and Batman in them (as well as Atom and Wildcat), but no Wonder Woman figure.

Maybe Patriot Princess, as well a police officer Stefan Troy. PP first appeared in a back up story in All-Stellar Comics #8. Her real name Anna King.

Not complaining about the episode mind you, just having a good time add my thought on the matter.

3. Not much of a question, but I take it the following JGA members debuted in:

The Streak- Streak Comics #1
Green Guardsman- US Comics #16
Black Siren- Streak Comics #86

Tom Turbine- Battle Comics #1 or US Comics #19
Catman- Investigator Comics #27 or Spectacular Comics #1

4. We know the names of Green Guardsman, Black Siren and of course Tom Turbine. How about the others? My guess:

The Streak/James Garfield
Catman/Theodore Wayne

Any thoughts or opinions?

If you squint at the gravestones, it looks like Cat Man's might say either "Tim Drake" or "Thomas Blake". And the Streak's is really hard to see, but the only visible letters made me think "Jay Garrick".

In the actual DC Comics of old, Vandal Savage was originally an exclusive-to-Earth-2 character, but travelled to Earth-1 in a few stories in the 80's (to face Superman)...

I was always a fan of the idea that the Grey Ghost's adventures took place on the Justice Guild's Earth. I always pictured him as an unofficial member who teamed up with the group at times.

That would've made Batman's situation (idolizing something he always considered as fictional) similar to the Silver Age Flash's situation---who was a big fan of the Golden Age Flash's adventures (Barry Allen was a comic collector who enjoyed reading Jay Garrick's comics), and considered him as fictional until "Flash of Two Worlds" came along. All pre-Crisis natch (post Crisis we're stuck with the idiotic "Keystone City was made invisible for decades" retcon).

It was interesting that Cat Man's name was Thomas Blake since in another one appeared previously, Thomas Blake was one of Batman and Catwoman's antagonists on "Cult of the Cat."
