I am not sure about the Projectionist.<br /><br />Maybe we will see some more Wildstorm and or Milestone characters joining Stormwatch. (Icon and J'Onn have some similarities, perhaps too many, but maybe Hardware could be a good fit?) I think that maybe Battalion or Fuji might be good additions to the team.will_in_chicagohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01468337654400802576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6620698560611640068.post-31046826190680453742011-11-15T23:38:39.208-06:002011-11-15T23:38:39.208-06:00I can't see the Engineer going anywhere, eithe...I can't see the Engineer going anywhere, either.

I believe that J'Onn, Apollo, Midnighter, Jenny Quantum and Jack Hawksmoor will be around, with Jack likely being the new leader. I suspect that Adam One is history, that Harry Tanner (aka the Eminence of Blades) will become the new Tao as you suggested, and the Projectionist might make it.<br /><br />I hope that J'Onn will not be jobbing with the Daemonite, but will instead be the one who shows up to pull some books into a connection with Stormwatch. (He is the only one known to the metahuman community and superheroes at large -- so maybe he will be on a recruiting drive. Or he may get an image of the Daemonite while he is out and about and wonder if they are tied to the White Martians, whom they now resemble.) Meanwhile, Apollo and Midnighter can discover that they still have some things to learn.<br /><br />As for the Flashpoint stuff, I am really not too interested. While I heard that some of it was good, a lot left me cold. I think that the Outsider could make a good villain, but only if J'Onn and friends are shown as intelligent adversaries. (Batman has compared J'Onn to an amalgram of himself and Superman. So, I hope that we will see some of that Martian brainpower evident in the portrayal of the detective from the planet Mars.)will_in_chicagohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01468337654400802576noreply@blogger.com
