Unless there are any objections - i would like to put together this one off short story about Titan.
I am planning to resume my work on Energize Unleashed and get my art schedule back on track, this would not be directly tied to the unleashed story - but has a loose connection. I actually have another project in the pipeline that could potentially springboard from this.
Anyway, im essentially planning to put this together anyway but thought it would make a nice little HA thing as that is Titans current residence.
If anyone is up for chipping in, then great.
Oh Yeah - Ideally this would feature a small HA team, so if anyone is happy for me to use their character please post here.

I'm fine with you using Astral or Sparkle (or even, if you have much knowledge of them, Noggin, Technica, Purple Power, the Herculean, or Locomotive–they're not main characters in my comic, but they're part of the HUniverse).
Also, I really should freaking write that Stormfront script I've wanted to write.

You can use Comet Kid if you need him.

Sounds great, and I'm looking forward to seeing new work from you! You're free to use any of my characters.

I would be happy for you to use SolarCell if you like. It would be interesting to see. She finally made it to the HA universe.

I think i have enough characters to play with for the short now, thanks for allowing their use. If anyone is interested in chipping in on the art to speed up production, you may be able to get this out as a filler whilst HA is stuck on hiatus.

@Hero - Could you tell me please what Comet Kids weakness is, if it were to be exploited?
@Abt_Nihil - Are you okay with Bombshell undergoing a brief transformation? Not into a monster or anything & literally for about 1-2 pages.
Thanks.

I've completed the script and as predicted it came in at 20 pages. I have assigned 11 pages to the artists confirmed at the top and i will take the remaining9 pages.

In order to keep the story a surprise for all readers
One open question, does the HA HQ have a lab that has been referenced previously?

Nope (at least not that I remember.) But it makes sense for them to have retrofitted a marine lab that had already been there for their purposes.

Alscroeder has kindly allowed me to include a cameo from MindMistress.

If you also intended to assign a page to me, I never got any message (and I check my PQs every day).

Sorry - I wasn't particularly clear - the script is done but i have not sent anything out yet. I will post here once i have done so, i just need to sort out some references.

@Shastab24: you are on the list i have you down for Pages 18 & 19.

@Shastab24: I have a question about Astral. I understand that Astral is a psychic construct but is that construct projected around his true form (i.e.encasing) or is his true body somewhere else (like Avatar)?

I basically need to know what happens if Astral is knocked ‘unconscious’. Would he lay there and remain a construct or would his form dematerialize? Would this leave his true self laying there? or nothing?

Thanks.

Mostly, his astral form is separate from his physical body. He'll often leave the body at a safe place if he can. However, he has once in the comic manifested it over his physical body, though this takes a lot of concentration and thus he can't really hold it like that for long.
If Astral's astral form gets knocked out, it'll quickly fade away and his physical form will wake up. Now, his astral form can also be injured. Psychic attacks are an easy way to injure it, but also sufficient magic, primarily magic designed to hurt someone's soul, as the astral form is basically Astral's soul.

I realise I'm a little late to this one to apply for a page…but if there isn't one yet, I'd happily do the cover?
Stop looking at my signature and read my comics!!

@Ironhand: I can free up a page for you.
The cover is ‘possibly’ being handled by someone else, but if that falls through then it's yours.

Now the big ask…

In the first post i said that this could springboard into a bigger story. Without giving snything away, this short will end with a small group going ‘off world’ for a bigger mission. As far as the HA is concerned Titan is going to represent them, BUT theres room for one more…

Does anyone want their character to leave with Titan? It will make them a principle character in the following story but continuity wise, takes them off earth until that story happens.

Hm, possibly? I always want to see others use my characters, but it's not like they're scrambling to use them in Heroes Alliance stories, and it's nice to think somebody would be using one of them.
