I'm not a shipping as niggas (and I think i've said it before) but Duke Thomas & Naomi McDuffie need to be together. the parallels between their stories would make the dynamic interesting and together they would be a great power couple among the next generation of heroes in DC.
Duke Thomas
Shigaraki Tomura
Red-Hair Shanks
Ché Heart from Ordeal (probably too early to say tbh, but i'm just really digging Ordeal) https://t.co/DHNS0o71Rm
in Batman Secret File: The Signal, I think Riko, Dax, and XP industries is probably connected to Gnomon (Duke Thomas' father). remember, we saw Gnomon going to talk to Riko, then when she emerges as Rook not only does she have powers but peep the symbol on her suit: a gold sun.
slight revision, these are the starters for a better account of Duke's character and his development over time:
We are Robin vol. 1 & 2
All-Star Batman vol. 1
Batman & the Signal vol. 1
Batman & The Outsiders vol. 1-3*
*note: has cool ideas but it's his weakest charactization https://t.co/UwaliGAPgI
Duke Thomas, Static, & Miles Morales
pick whichever pair combo you like, it's all gold. ideally drawn by Nikolas Draper-Ivey but I would "settle" for Sumit Kumar or Jamal Campbell. https://t.co/2nTenTavsB
DC's solar powered shonen protagonist https://t.co/MXCI2Ry1Fr
I don't know why Duke Thomas and Hawkman haven't crossed paths yet. I feel like connecting his story so heavily to Nth Metal, a Hawkman crossover would seem like the natural progression. add him to hid growing list of mentors on Signal's path to herodom
as much as I'm enjoying John Ridley's Batman, I bought this issue exclusively for Duke Thomas in Outsiders; but man @bwrites247 and @kumar_sumit92 exceeded my expectations! Duke Thomas with a Soultaker that's inhabited by Black Lightning? he's DC's secret shonen protagonist!😎☀️
all I want from #DCcomics in 2021 is Duke Thomas in a limited series. starring him, with a writer that's passionate about him/his mythology & an artist that know how to actually build on his aesthetic; for 6-12 issues so there's a clear start, middle, & end (all killer no filler)
