As I was reading the fan-creators-written issue #8, I would find myself noticing elements that suggested Alan Moore's ideas from the Youngblood proposal. I wanted to start a running log to see how those ideas were used in the issue. So here goes.
- Twilight starts in Star City, Moore's Awesome universe of Gotham City as seen in numerous issues of Supreme.
- The Walrus and the Carpenter are two villains we've seen before, most recently in Miskatonic Asylum in Youngblood #2. Their Clam Cannon appeared in an issue of Supreme, too.
- Twilight's decision to leave Professor Night was shown here, from Judgment Day: Aftermath. It's possible to read this and get the impression that Professor Night might be pushing her out or that she's deciding for herself to go:
- As for the possibility of a romantic/sexual relationship between the two, there's this from Moore''s proposal (and I'll go more into the historical basis for this relationship in a post on Friday):
- There's also this odd panel from Supreme that I've talked about before (isn't it odd how Taylor is just sort of drinking and watching her try on clothes) that suggests their relationship is more than just partners:
- Speaking of that proposal, here's Moore talking about Suprema and her morality and how it can be played for laughs and then for sympathy (as well as crossing over with Supreme):
- Moore also showed us Suprema's feelings of loneliness (and her superhearing), both in Youngblood and in Supreme:
- That the elder Doc Rocket is the nicer Doc Rocket is suggested here:
- And Doc Rocket not getting along with Suprema can be seen here:
- Moore also had a story idea about the team losing their powers and using their human skills to win the day. That could have been the inspiration for the third story:
Did you guys see any others?
