A random thought / headcanon

Superman learns knitting/sewing, deciding to give an “ugly sweater” to his friends, including captain marvel

He doesn’t make them ugly intentionally, he’s just bad at making designs

This might be shocking to Cap, but for me it's just a Tuesday.

I want to hear Billy Batson and/or Captain Marvel with a transatlantic accent! From what I've read it seems possible, Shazam was created in 1939 and the transatlantic accent ended after world war ii which was 1945. This means that it is entirely possible that the golden age Captain Marvel/Billy Batson could have had a transatlantic accent!

Imagine Billy with his Golden boy personality, iconic all American boy next door looks, and his transatlantic accent, like no matter what he does he comes off as adorable! He could burn someone's house down and all he would have to do is say "Oh, I'm terribly sorry! I didn't see that candle there." and he'd get away with it! Captain Marvel would probably give off the vibe of an alien who learned everything he knows about Earth from old Hollywood films!

I have never dealt with shotguns before, so this drawing might be inaccurate

To list all the characters DC never reprinted would require me to sit here all day, but I can start a basic list: We should probably get all the Superman stuff from the 40s, 50s and 60s. We should get all the Captain Marvel stuff from Fawcett Comics reprinted. We should get the 40s Plastic Man stuff reprinted. All the 40s Green Lantern stuff. All the Justice Society characters stuff, honestly. Maybe even give us all the Green Arrow stories from the 40s to the 60s. Plus Johnny Quick and Ibis the Invincible and these other obscure 40s and 50s characters.

But even after we cover them, we have some great silver age comics too. Metamorpho. The Metal Men. Even thing like Sugar and Spike, if we want to reprint that fun old comedy series. Because DC had almost way too many comics, and we need to do something with them. We can't consign them to the scrap heap forever. That's just a waste of those old writers and artists, who put their hearts into their work!

"You're beating yourself up, and when that's not good enough, you're letting the bad guys do it for you. I've been there. And I've seen you go there before, back in the war..." "Really? And when was that?" "When you and I were the only ones to walk out of the Black Forest alive." "That...was...different."

[Captain America (1968) #606, Ed Brubaker]
