A Sensible Suggestion
Within the pages of DC Comics "back-up" features appear to be multiplying like rabbits. The Question! Blue Beetle! Captain Atom! Even characters that have their own books are being granted "back-ups."
A logical extension of this leads to one question: where is the "co-feature" for Doctor Polaris?
If tinpot dictators like Captain "Monarch" Atom and whiny brats like Rose "Whiny Brat" Wilson are getting "back-ups" then there must be room for the mighty Doctor Polaris. Perhaps as one of the pre-eminent villains of the DCU a "back-up" in Justice Leage of America would be appropriate. Or perhaps I could take up residence in the last few pages of Action Comics.
Still, my favorite option is this: move well-known idiot Hal "Jackass" Jordan to a "co-feature" and change the title of Green Lantern to Doctor Polaris.
That should make everyone happy.

There truly is no justice in this world, where Ravager gets a backup and you do not. My suggestion is to go over there, and Kick her Shiny Ass!
Don't listen to Sally! Stick with your plan and take Hal's book from him! It the much more sensible option, as Ravager's stories are probably going to be read by Teen Titans, and they couldn't possibly comprehend your magnificence!
Now now, loyal readers. You need not fight amongst yourselves. Polaris loves each of his minions equally.
Hah! Calvin reads NOVA for God's sake! It would be MUCH better for the good Doctor to show that Kyle Rayner wannabe what was what!
Do you think there's a reason the co-feature back-up stories are being heavily dominated by Charlton Comics characters? I'm glad to see their return to prominence (even if two of the three are legacy heroes now), but it seems a little odd. Esp the decision to include Captain Atom.
Y'know, I never noticed that. But you're right. There are a lot of Charlton characters getting back-ups. Blue Beetle and the Question make sense, but Captain Atom seems very out of the blue.
Good catch. Maybe they're building to something...
