HOLY SHIT GUYS, I WAS INSPIRED BY THIS POST TO TRY MAKE THE SONG AND YOU WOULD NOT BELIEVE THE SCREAM I SCRUMPT WHEN I DRAGGED THE TRAINING AUDIO OVER THE BACKING TRACK AND IT LINED UP PERFECTLY
The Lost Children are a group of time-displaced sidekicks, many from the Golden Age of superheroes, who were held captive on Orphan Island b
I know it is absolutely business as usual for characters to get introduced and almost immediately forgotten but it grinds my gears when they were introduced with "these children were lost and forgotten but now they've been found!"
So let's go over this roster, shall we?
Wing: Went back to the time he was taken from and died.
The Boom, Judy Garrick: Has living dad, has been showing up in Flash family stuff off and on — she's good.
Air Wave: Had plot significance in Absolute Power and seems to be operating as an adult hero after that — he's… well I'm not sure I'd say fine but he's around
Dan the Dyna-Mite: Was an adult in the present until recently and has been sidekicking/mentoring Damage — he's fine.
Quiz Kid: The new Mister Terrific is willing to take responsibility for him and they get along okay. Also cameoed in very recent JSA.
Salem the Witch Girl: The new Doctor Fate is willing to take responsibility for her and they… are getting along better than they were at the start? Also cameoed in very recent JSA.
John Henry Junior: Is Steel's great-uncle and recognized as family not that he showed up in those comics or anything. Also cameoed in very recent JSA.
Ladybug: There's a surviving trained bee apparently? And Phantom Lady agreed to mentor her. Also cameoed in very recent JSA.
Cherry Bomb: Phantom Lady agreed to mentor her. Also cameoed in very recent JSA.
Secret: Has friends! No evidence anyone has told them about her! As far as guardians go Red Tornado exists but is out of commission. No recent cameos!
Betsy Ross: Cameoed in very recent JSA. That's it.
Molly Pitcher: Cameoed in very recent JSA. That's it.
Tick-Tock: Cameoed in very recent JSA. That's it.
Big Words, Famous Bobby, Flip, Gabby, Scrapper, Tommy: Jim Harper exists. Current status unclear. Of course so is the kids'. Apparently an adult Big Words existed and worked for Cadmus as of the death of Superman that people remember!
Sparky: His mentor is believed dead but is going to surface alive out in space during All In. I have my doubts about whether anyone will remember Sparky if this guy ever comes back from space but never mind.
Pinky the Whiz Kid: Nothing.
Little Boy Blue, the Blue Boys, and Little Miss Redhead: Nothing.
You know I came here to complain about them doing Greta dirty — and they did! — but like. Considering that she's 75% less time-displaced than most of the others and has been on her own before, she could just leave if she wanted to. Camp out in Mount Justice. Track Tim down in Gotham and initiate a comedy of errors as Tim tries not to reveal her presence to Bruce or lose plausible deniability with Bernard. Go on a quest to find Anita.
I cannot see nearly as many possibilities for unpowered 13-16-year-olds from the 1940s.
There is definitely a universe out there where Absolute Power is derailed because Greta finds out there's a bomb in Cissie's head and fucking slaughters the people responsible.
laika's comet had its three year anniversary last month, so for my mail club i did a piece of the main three guys from chapter 3 to celebrate! (it is also now in my shop as a print!)
hey. don't cry. glados holding chell down with anonymous robotic appendages while searing her name into chell's back with a high powered laser as the girl writhes and sweats beneath her.
