He a character I hope they use more. Come to find out he's a legacy character too. But never really saw the first one just this one. I mean he is a more intresting character then the first in my oppinion.
One of the smartest people in the world
They did him so scandlous in the tv show Arrow.
I'd say cartoon shows did him justice.
Justice Leaque Unlimted/Justice Leaque Action
Injustice the movie: The movie really wasn't that good felt like cliffnotes. They replaced him with Flash & had him debate with Superman in chess. They seem to forget that they could have used his expereince with the lost of his wife & child just like Superman. Have him connect with Superman on a level.
Comics runs that are great for his character & to get started:
The Specture (New Earth)
Strange Adventures (Prime Earth)
Dceased (Prime Earth)
JSA (New Earth)
Justice Society of America (New Earth)
Man, I checked & he was going to make an appearance on Stargirl if it wasn't cancelled.
So I Made A Cheesy Little Curtis/Rene thing (that needs A LOT of work)
Curtis was busy trying not to get crumbs stuck in those little spaces between the keys on his laptop while biting into his stolen sweet treat when Rene walked in to his apartment.
"Are you seriously eating my old Crogurt?"
"Hey, your old is my delicious" Curtis said with a wide grin plastered on his face, eyes glowing with the light from his screen. Rene just shook his head and huffed a laugh before sitting down on the couch next to his teammate to try and get a look at what he was working on.
"So. Have you made any progress with the system?" Rene asked.
Curtis was still taking a bite of the Crogurt when he answered, "Mm-yeah, well sort of," some of the filling clung to the corner of his lips and Rene couldn't help but focus on that point while the nerd genius spewed jargon that he didn't have the energy to even try to follow. Curtis began waving his hands to emphasize some obscure detail in his diatribe, the pastry in his hand making it's way closer and closer to Rene's face. A very hungry Rene who hasn't eaten since before the whole incident with the Team Arrow meeting.
While Curtis was pointing at his screen saying something about the FBI, Rene took his chance and chomped down on the last of the Crogurt in other man's hand. Curtis stared at his sticky hand in shock and then at Rene's face as he savored the rest of HIS last bite. "How dare you," Curtis blurted, "the last part is the BEST part!" He pouted at the smaller man, who's face split in a cocky and triumphant smile, still glistening with sugary glaze. Rene licked his upper lip slowly to tease him, "Still want it?"
Was that a challenge? Mr. Terrific never turns down a challenge. That is unless the challenge is out of his range of possibility, which he shouldn't admit, but then again he isn't saying this out loud so he's only admitting this to himself and that doesn't make this any less weird..God I really do ramble too much.
The atmosphere became heavy and charged as Curtis narrowed his eyes and scooted closer. Rene's eyes widened a touch. No Way, Rene thought, he wouldn't dare. Curtis leaned in close until their noses brushed together, "Maybe I do," he retorted. Rene gasped when the other man closed the space between them with an indulgent kiss, Curtis sucking in his bottom lip to taste the leftover glaze. Even better than being fresh out of the oven.
It took a moment for Rene to get over his own shock, but not much time passed before he responded in kind, sliding his hand up to caress Curtis' cheek as he deepened the kiss and then sliding it back to cradle the man's head. He had thought about his relationship with his friend in recent months, about possibly moving it across the line into the territory of 'More Than'. However he could never have imagined it happening like this. He couldn't be more than happy though, that is if this wasn't just a one off thing. He wasn't about to pass up the chance either way.
Rene had just started to slip his tongue passed his lips to meet Curtis' when the other man suddenly pulled back, his hand coming up to cover Rene's mouth while the other covered his own. Rene raised an eyebrow at Curtis, he looked surprised at himself for being so forward, especially since it was so out of character for him. "I am so sorr- I don't know what I was thinking, I-"
Rene sighed through Curtis' large hand and then pulled it away so he could stop him before he went off on a tangent of apologies. "Look, hoss, it's okay. It's fine," his words coming out in a rush to cut the man off. Curtis looked at him incredulously, " What do you mean, I just forced myself on you without your permission, oh god," he put his face in his hands, "I'm a terrible friend." Rene rubbed the hand was still holding on to until it's owner looked up at him, "You're not a terrible friend Curtis," he said slowly, "I know you, you just get a little excited is all."
Curtis smiled a little, although he still looked down. He looked the other man in the eye and seriously said, "I really am sorry though."
"And I forgive you man. It's all good," Rene smiled back, "plus, I really didn't mind it. Like at all," he ducked his head sheepishly with the admission. He may have been a badass vigilante who could take down a few dudes, but that didn't mean he could't blush. "Really? I mean I've been thinking about doing it for a while, but-Not doing IT, I mean-"
Rene put his hand on Curtis' mouth this time, stopping him short once more.
"I'm rambling again aren't I?"
Rene chuckled quietly, "Yes, you are"
They both sat there for a moment in silence and smiled until they realized how close they still were to each other, not quite sure what to do with themselves now. Rene moved his fingers down to gently grasp Curtis' chin and slowly brought the man's face closer, turning the situation around by making the move. This kiss was more tentative then the initial one, especially now that they were more self aware, but that didn't stop either one of them from getting swept up in the feeling. This time Rene definitely did get to taste Curtis' tongue on his and it was a completely different experience he'd ever had with anyone else. It was like a warm electricity just flooding his senses while his body seem to defy gravity.
"Daaaaaaaaaaaad!"
With just one word he was brought back to his apartment. Which he shared with his young daughter.
They separated from the kiss, resting their foreheads against one another. "That would be me," one side of his mouth raising in a sort of half grin. He gave Curtis a quick peck on the lips and then got up to see what his daughter needed. "Coming!"
Curtis leaned back against the sofa and watched Rene's retreating form wondering if this could turn into a thing. He could picture himself bringing various pastries over and snuggling on the couch with Rene while he tapped away on his keyboard and Rene watched t.v. or something. Maybe he could even teach Zoe how to code.
Rene stopped in the archway that lead to the hall and stared at a wistful Curtis.
Sorry for the abrupt ending there, it's just that I procrastinated (for a long time, I made this right after this episode for turd's sake) and basically forgot about this thing..so there's no real end here..yet.. Hopefully some day.
