How about Roy Thomas writing a four-issue JSA story set during WW2?

I would explode in my pants.

Sadly, at Dave's age this is more likely a reference to bowel control than sexual excitement.

You guys got any more ideas for recurring mini titles?

Maybe they could do one about stories set on Krypton.

I liked that World Of Krypton mini that came out back when Byrne was in charge of Superman.

I would like a real Deadman mini series, not a gothic romance.

Spectre is another big one for me but you already covered that.

For what its worth, I enjoy finding those old DC 80s miniseries in the dollar bins. Most of these were probably exactly what is being suggested, a way to test the waters or try someone new. Hell, there is Red Tornado, Aquaman, Deadman, Dr Fate, etc...

Even they did more prestige format books that are three-parters or standalones. That Hawkworld miniseries by Truman was awesome, I'd love more stuff like that.

One I suggested on CBR was a team title for the Atoms called The Atomic Order. I'd even throw Al Pratt in there as an oddball member.

Also Stretchers, with the Elongated Man and Plastic Man running an alternative weekly that does investigative reporting.

And Mystery Command, with the street-level JSA members plus Batman being given assignments by the Phantom Stranger. Their meeting place could be in the Bat Cave.

I'd do a Batman and Green Arrow team-up too, as a tryout for an ongoing.

I'd set Stretchers in Gotham City and use Jim Gordon, but keep Batman and the bat-villains out.

I agree about Aquaman. He's always the guy who is on the bubble about whether he can carry an ongoing or not. I'd stop trying him out that way and put him in a team title with the Martian Manhunter, Supergirl and Warrior called either The Relics or The Emissaries, about the survivors of lost civilizations being sent by some interstellar authority (maybe the Guardians) to aid worlds that are suffering an existential crisis.

Yes, that would involve flushing Atlantis, but I'm OK with that.

And that would be a recurring mini.

They could also do a recurring mini that isn't oriented around super-heroes but is an anthology of unrelated sci-fi tales.

What about weird war tales? GI Robot, the Unknown Soldier and the Creature Commandos?

Sure, you could do a any of that. Sgt. Rock too.

You could try anything that won't stand up as an ongoing or is unlikely to.
