Thank you kindly, Thoth.

LOL

Raz got it right (and in a brilliant parody of Doom's voice, as well. Kudos.)

About time my melodrama lessons started paying off wink

Okay, next question!

The New Mutants (as the name would suggest) are a team of mutant kids that Professor X took into his school during one of the thousands of times the X-Men were presumed dead.

Warlock is one of the New Mutants, and he's also one of a race of techno-organic aliens who all share the same standard techno-organic abilities.

Warlock also has a mutant power though which is unique among his race as far as we know.....what is Warlock's mutant ability?

I should know this, I just read a Warlock profile recently... does it have to do with being able to merge with Cypher?

I'm gonna give it to CMK...in the 80s Fallen Angels miniseries they said his mutation was the ability to feel compassion, which really feels like the ultimate asspull to justify him being on a mutant team, but it is what it is I guess! All yours, Chaim!

For Elongated Man's birthday, Sue Dibny once pretended she was kidnapped. Sue pretended to be Ice... name one clue that made Ralph realize that Ice was actually Sue.

He never saw "Ice" using her powers, she just ran and hit things? (I remember the story but not for certain the clue.)

good enough! he never saw Ice using her powers... and when confronted by a runaway toy train, Ice used oil to make it run off the tracks. The real Ice would ahve just used her powers!

Also, Ice was being too quiet, even for Ice... she didn't say a word!

Jimmy Olsen has found an ancient prophecy from Nostradamus that says that if he combines the tears of a clown, a killer, a king, and a Kryptonian he will gain a mysterious power. For the Kryptonian he seeks out his "pal" Superman. How does he make him cry?

Bonus question: the killer and the king are interesting but one-offs but what well known DC character is the clown?

You got the bonus question. Joker is indeed the Clown Prince of Crime. However Kryptonite is not how he makes Superman cry.

Did he emotionally exploit Superman by showing him something very sad?

Yes he did! Good enough.

Exploiting his friendship with his pal, Jimmy summons Superman with his watch and then gets Supers to take him to his Fortress where he takes him before the memorial to Jor-El and Lara, but is shocked when Superman doesn't get upset. Superman explains that today is the anniversary of the destruction of Krypton and he had already remembered that by watching time movies of the event and was all cried out. jimmy apologises but then sees amongst Supes films another to show him, a documentary of his time in Smallville. This does the rick although Jimmy doesn't realise that what really did it was an image of the Kents' graves.

Adding Superman's tears to a test tube containing those he had already collected, Jimmy is disappointed to find that all he has is a glowing tube like a light bulb. Superman examines it while suggesting that to anyone from Nostradamus time a glowing tube truly was a spectacular power. Jimmy is disgusted and lets Suiperman have it. After returning Jimmy to Metropolis, Superman flies to a deserted region and detonates the tube revealing that it contained an incredibly powerful radioactive potential too powerful for anyone on Earth to have. Somehow his "super tears" empowered the others. Wonderful Silver Age nonsense.

Your turn.

what Silver Age nonsense indeed!

Did Jimmy feel an ounce of guilt for exploiting Superman like that? maybe not, but whew that was the Silver Age indeed tongue

let's see...

The Lost Lanterns were a bunch of Green Lanterns thought dead during Hal Jordan's first rampage to Oa. Many of them turned up alive, kidnapped by the Manhunters. Which of the Lost Lanterns died during their rescue?

I just don't know the names of many of the non-Earth GLs.
How about that orange-skinned guy with the fin head and beak? Sometimes an archivist I think?
