Great stuff people, congratulations to all those involved. Some lovely art, and some interesting tid bits of information! Favourite pieces were the Weird Western bios, Ramon is fantastic at that stuff!

Great cover (and logo).
Have to admit that, as with the DC Who's Whos, I mainly just looked at the pictures(where were Aqualad and Mera?) - my favourites being Bizarro, Raven and Sandman (although there were lots of great ones). Kind of disappointed that the story I rushed to the end for was one I'd already read on fanfiction.net.

Sorry about that! I'd posted the story before I thought that the DC2 would actually be interested. Then, a few days later, I PM-d Idle asking whether there were any plans for a "Definitely NOT the JLA"-type title, because I had a sillyfic that might fit. I honestly didn't expect it to run as a backup to the Who's Who.
Going forward, I think I'll be a bit more cautious about posting something to ff.net until I'm positive that the DC2 isn't interested in it first.

Nice job all the way around. I found only a couple of weak entries, but nothing bad. The artwork is excellent, really enjoyed Airwave for some reason. This seemed to be a large endeavor and you all should be proud.

Mark, those entries have the images added now. Sorry for the inconvenience. Awesome work for everyone involved. A truly titanic undertaking which everyone met head on and the amazing final product shows every bit of dedication. A big huge thanks to David for being the brains, coordinator, and driving force behind this project. Great cover, Riz! Outstanding job to all of the artists and writers involved.

Thanks, Zoom! Partial credit has to go to a co-worker. We were talking comics and the subject was 'transferrable mantles'. He said, and I quote... "well just about anyone can be a GL. I mean... unless he's a big chicken or something."
This is NOT a good thing to say to an Animaniacs fan.

Wow, I just finished checking this out, and have to say a big WELL DONE to everyone who participated in this. It's wonderful, and I can't wait to see what's next.
And btw, the Black Orchid pic really blew me away - it's lovely!

Well, as the penciler/inker of that Black Orchid I thank you for that compliment!! (And I will speak for Scott and on behalf of the colors and say thank you as well ) I am actually really happy with that Orchid peice just on a design level, as I was trying to combine the superhero-ish-ness of the original with the etheral, other-worldly vibe of the vertigo version...and I think it was pretty successful.

yeah it was cool. and you have to say thank you for scott because he is a rude, rude person.

This was awesome! The art was great but more importantly this filled in some holes I had on info on characters. We gotta do this again!
Also, because of this, I'm encouraged to read Suicide Squad.

This was great. Really filled in some blanks for me on what we're doing with some of these folk in DC2. My husband, however, thinks we're being "a tad presumputous" by making our own Who's Who entries. Well, to heck with him, I had fun writing up mine, and I'm already planning on who I want in #2! ;D As for "Lantern Boo"...to me, he'll always be "The Man With No Personality". And I think we need a short goofball story in every issue! Who's with me?

'Goofball'? 'GOOFBALL'?
Blasphemy, I say! Lantern Boo is a moving, touching story about a man, or rather a courageous chicken, reaching his full potenital, truly grabbing his destiny and then having it shattered because of the lies he told in order to get there...okay, it's a goofball story.

Cool idea! Like it was said, great bios, great pictures and an awesome cover. I'll defiantly be looking forward to this from now on. Enchantress seems like a very cool character, sweet picture Borize. Loved all the other characters and pictures too though.
