quark101I have had the most strangest and most brilliant idea ever. I doubt it'll happen, but it's cracky enough for comics.
It’s a way to basically return James Jesse to the living and still kill off a Trickster.
It involves Axel Walker and a basic element from Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest.
In Dead Man’s Chest, Captain Jack made a deal with and sold his soul to Davy Jones for the Black Pearl.
From Wikipedia:
"Thirteen years before, Jones raised the Black Pearl from the ocean depths and made Jack its captain. In exchange, Jack must now serve aboard the Flying Dutchman for 100 years."
You see, Captain Jack was actually only captain of the Black Pearl for three years. His crew mutinied and Barbossa was made captain. But, for the remaining ten years, Captain Jack still reffered to himself as “Captain Jack” even though, techincally, he wasn’t.
So, I was thinking, despite James’ threats to Axel, Axel could’ve done the same thing. Axel might not be the Trickster anymore, but he could have still used the name and truly believed that he was. Like Captain Jack.
Get it?
And if you look at Wiki, there’s this:
"Axel's only appearance since then was in Helmet of Fate: Detective Chimp, where he answered an ad from four college students asking for an experienced superhero to train them. Once he arrived to the location in the ad, he had dinner with them and then killed all four of them. His crime was discovered when Detective Chimp found the Helmet of Fate, put it on, and used it to help deduce who the murderer was. Axel was then arrested."
Axel is obviously still running around in the DCU, fairly active.
Also, this. There will be a Rogues mini. Axel's going by "Trickster." So there.
And it would be relatively easy.
James sweet-talks Neron. Convinces Neron that he isn’t the only Trickster and that Axel’s soul is more corrupt than his. (I believe that James takes his namesake seriously. He doesn’t really seem to be on a set side - of hero or villain. And, as I define it, a trickster is someone who is neither good nor evil, neither man nor god. If you get my drift.) Then, if James manages to convince Neron, Axel gets put in James’ place and James lives. Everyone is happy.
And then James and Piper have hot gay sex and live happily ever after…Kidding…Sorta.
ETA: Y'know? If I get any inspiration, I might write this.
ETA2: Guess what? I did.
ETA3: More evidence for Axel calling himself Trickster added.
