Yea! I finally had time to read this today. And, now, hours later, time to comment.
Wow, so much happening in this part. Meeting the JL. It's such the men's club. (see my comments below) I'm glad Laura relaxed into staying and getting to know her dad's pals. It's nice that they automatically accept Matt into their fold, too.
I had only managed to peel off my cape and top when Jon, who only about 3 at the time, came stumbling into the bedroom, complaining of a bad stomach ache. Of course, he saw me in the shadows and approached me, but as he got closer, the smell of saltwater and fish and oil must have been enough to push his stomach over the limit and, splat, all over the floor, my legs, and my feet.”
Great and telling story about Clark and Jon's relationship. I kept thinking during this, TELL Clark about Jon's disappearance into the past! He'll know what to do.
Sometimes us kids forget mom and dad can handle more than we think.
I liked Laura touching bases with her sisters-in-law and bonding with them. So sweet. I can't wait to see what Martha and Jonathan will think of those videos.
Barry, doesn't your story mean that a paradox has been created and Laura and Jon will be stuck in the past or somewhere else?
I can see why Matt is worried. First he's told he's going to be a father, then he's told Laura and the baby are time-traveling. If she's not careful, he's going to turn into an alcoholic with that kind of stress (just see what it's done to Jon's wife). Let's hope that CJ takes good care of him while she's gone.
So, hey, this is a Justice League story...in a world where the justice league is basically a social club for superheroes.
This is just what I was thinking when I read this. I love Laura's thought. "They need more women."
But it wasn’t hard to see that another female presence was sorely needed at their little party.
So true!
It would be fun to do a few of those, though I'm not sure I know enough about most of the league characters to do them justice (lol). The Justice League Does the Waterpark would be a good one, or the Justice League Field Day (can you image Superman versus the Flash in a rubber band race?). Ah, it's fun to dream.
I *love* this idea! Sometimes, the JL is just TOO serious! You should post it as a challenge or a challenge in the Superman in Other Canon forum.
Have fun on your trip!
