I love dp x DC stories in which Ghost King Danny is summoned in his full Eldritch form and scaring the shit out of everyone. I also like it when it combines with aus of him talking in ghost speak and the translation gets wrangled, so he sounds a lot more threatening than he means to.
But in those stories ... his name doesn't really fit. What Eldritch God would be called Danny? Even Phantom isn't that scary.
Then I realized that if ghost speak gets translates wrongly and Danny said his name in ghost speak ... wouldn't it be translated wrong too?
And Daniel means God is my Judge in Hebrew while Phantom of course is a kind of ghost.
So,
The Justice League has summoned Danny and he doesn't realize that he's in his Eldritch form. His skin is black and filled with galaxies constantly being born and dying. His eyes are two endless black holes. His hair is the flash of the big bang. He's terrifying and awe-inspiring.
As he speaks, it sounds like millions of beings screaming in agony before breathing their last breath.
And then Danny says "Hi! My name is Danny Phantom, the Ghost King, how can I help you?"
But what the JL hears through the translation is: "I am the Judge of Gods and the restless Dead, Ruler of the Infinite, for what purpose hath thee summoned me?"
Now that's a fitting name!
