In 1986 Earth 2s Double Header became part of the new Earth along with the rest of Helix.
1983 saw Captain Carrot and the Zoo Crew battle the argumentative, two headed Chimaera. It's not certain that this was double header in an animal costume with a stuck zipper, but tell tale Time Bubble ripples were noted in two panels.

Only being too old, having no powers, using devices and dedding countless people stopped Hex joining the Legion.

Sadly, The Flash failed to get into the JLA after being unable to stop quickly enough during the 110m hurdle event, used as part of the track and field recruitment process.

The Justice League never felt that Javelin was really as effective as Flash would have been. Not to mention the frequent squabbles with Green Arrow over which was the better Olympic event.

AI continues to be in the news. Fortunately, we at LW have the advantage of having read all the Computo stories.

Who can tell if the disasters they don't prevent are to save our resources to go up against something worse?
Warn people to evacuate one disaster only for one of them to go onto develop a killer nanobot.

If it were Chess, the Musical we'd have cold war tensions and music by one of ABBA.

I wasn't remembering that from the musical.
This isn't anything to do with that ongoing chess cheating dispute is it...checks...yes, it is.
