3/10 ❤️
8/10, there was something I didn't remember though that's where I started.
Alrighty, I waited a little over 24 hours. I reckon we can spoil some of the questions and answers and have some conversation about them.
What questions did you guys find particularly difficult?
Did anyone learn something they thought was interesting?
After all the Buzzfeed quizzes out there that will make Bibbo Bibowski feel Smrt, it’s nice to have a true test. The results of 6’s to 8’s mean you’ve written some good but not too hard questions.
The focus (apart from Mr Bones) is the core Justice Leaguers so everyone should stand a chance - it’s not like you’ve asked about Men at War. I only got the question on Bones because the Kanes and Lanes are related to everybody.
Questions like the one on Damian (though I didn’t get it) are more than fair since that’s a key moment in a key character.
Questions like who fought together with Larfleeze (though I did get it. Lantern Fanatic) are much harder since that’s a moment in a single issue with second-string characters.
I liked the question on Atros’ profession since that’s a key moment *to me* (was it in Red Lanterns #0? Something like that) as Atros is a key part of my man Krona’s (and the Manhunters) story. As I’ve always maintained, Blackest Night is all about Krona.
Aquaman and Wonder Woman’s pantheonic questions are good for fanatics, but very very specific.
If anything, moments that change the story moving forward are the best places to launch questions from. Damian, yes. But what item The Others *weren’t* guarding feels like a test for whatever they called A.D.D. back when I was in grade school.
Really, it was a good mix of characters, (with the conspicuous absence of Superman, but hey there’s only ten questions) so everyone has a chance; even if I failed. 😢
When coming up with questions, for the majority of them, I ask, “What is something someone who read this title may recall even if it’s been a few years.”
In Larfleeze’s case, his solo title was fairly short, so G’nort’s presence in the last handful of issues felt significant to the title’s overarching plot.
For Wonder Woman, Diana replaces Ares as the God of War was a driving force of her solo series for more than two dozen issues, and it was mentioned in many other titles that featured Diana as well. I actually thought that the prominence of her status as the God of War made the question arguably easy, which is why I gave some red herrings because (a) in New Earth, she did become the God of Truth for a bit and (b) during Futures End, she became the God of Peace.
As for the Others, their artifacts were front and center of all of the issues starring them (both in the main Aquaman series, and in the team book). So, it felt fair since my questions were about the titles. Now, perhaps it was still a tricky question. The Trident of Neptune is one of those artifacts, but the Trident of Poseidon wasn’t. The Trident of Poseidon was the weapon Arthur received and used during the DC You period, so I figured an Aquaman fan who remembered that aspect of Aquaman’s lore would be able potentially rule that specific Trident out and realize it was the answer.
But some questions were about a specific moment instead of something that lasted for several issues spanning a year or more. The one about Damian being the one to hug Duck (and say, “I missed you.”) was more esoteric, but I felt it was heartwarming enough that even if you got it wrong, you would smile to learn the answer. That said, I think the only other possibly viable option there was Batgirl, but she treated him pretty coldly, ha.
I was able to guess the Mister Bones question because of JH Williams connecting Chase and Batwoman.
3/10. Feel insanely dumb because I knew which Goddess Wonder Woman was, but nevertheless that's part of the charm. Really dug taking this quiz
Goddess of War DC Wonder Woman
Goddess of War Marvel Athena
Ngl first time I took this I got a 7/10 but honestly a 5/10 because 2 were lucky guesses. Then retook it and if I went with what I thought I would've gotten a 9/10 instead of this score.
Lol link wasn't to my score but the actual test WOW!!!
10/10 :)
