[phantoms-world-and-more]

Vlad is Ra al ghul

After jack and maddies death danny and vlad had one final brawl which resulted in the both of them having breakdowns and eventually having a heart to heart so their on better terms now

By the time danny ghost king coronation was coming up vlad was conflicted a part of him wanted to follow in dani's footsteps, leave to explore and no longer live for someone else

But another part of him didnt want to leave his obssession(danny) alone and just cut contact

In the end danny gave vlad a fenton-phone with the ability to teleport vlad to danny and danny to vlad, danny also had one so he could do the same to vlad

So vlad traveled between the infinite realms and eventually setteled in a little universe where he relaxed for a while

Until he started aging again, danny, vlad and frost bite did some experimenting and discovered that because vlad wasent a true halfa if he was removed from ectoplasm for certain amounts of time he'd age again and eventually die

So vlad asked danny to create a pool of ectoplasm in the mountains.

More years passed and eventually vlad created the LOA, danny knowes about it but dosent aprove, vlad never stopped contact with danny he just stopped teleporting him there every month

He had a daughter and a grandson, created a fake name so only a few people knew him real name and was currently being harassed by a group of furries

Yes, danny dose repeatedly, make fun of vlads life

Now where this takes a turn is when during a fight with batman at the LoA

The batfam were all there and watching as Ra al ghul fight bruce to see the fate of their lives

However during the fight Ra dropped something that looked like a phone which bruce picked up

The way Ra reacted to bruce having it told everyone it was important, so bruce was planning to trade it for the batfams lives when he pushed a button on the thing

A *beep* and a flash of light was all the warning anyone got before a white teenager in regal attire was floating there holding the devise

The being looked breefly suprised before turning to Ra

:really fruitloop, you teleport me now

: apologies little badger, but it was the bat that teleport led you

DC Villains: An opportunity for success

Now that Joker is the most profitable comic book movie in history, DC has an opportunity to differentiate itself from the MCU and other studios by focusing on villian origin stories. While the MCU is wonderful, their villains could be utilized better. Out of 23 films, only 6 of their main villains were really memorable to me (this is subjective of course). Standouts include Loki, Killmonger, Hela, Thanos, Ghost and Vulture. These characters were charismatic, intelligent, relatable, powerful and evil. They were worthy adversaries and made the protagonist look great in victory. However, out of those 6 characters, 3 are dead (I'm still holding out hope for Killmonger) and 2 (Ghost & Loki) are reforming.

Presenting compelling villains with well fleshed out back stories will only raise the stock of the DC heroes. For example, if DC were to include Joaquin's Joker in The Batman movie, people would be more invested in Robert's Batman because we are already invested in his antagonist.

DC seems to be heading in the direction of producing villain focused movies as Black Adam begins filming in July 2020, and if The Birds of Prey is successful, a Gotham City Sirens spinoff is expected to be the follow-up.

If DC were to truly commit to supervillain movies moving forward, here are three villains I feel can carry an amazing solo film:

Vandal Savage

Vandal began his days in 50,000 BC, as a caveman named Vandar Adg. He was bathed in the radiation of a mysterious meteorite, which gave him incredible intellect and immortality. 

He claims to have ruled hundreds of civilizations under hundreds of names: Khafre, Cheops, Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar, Genghis Khan, Blackbeard, and Vlad the Impaler, to name a few. He also terrorized Victorian era London as Jack the Ripper. He has also worked as close friends and advisers to the likes of Erik the Red, William the Conqueror, Napoleon Bonaparte, Otto von Bismarck and Adolf Hitler. He also led the Spanish Armada in its attempted invasion of England (suggesting he may have been Alonso Pérez de Guzmán). He was the court physician in France and even used the royal family for syphilis experiments.

Basically there are a lot of intriguing stories you can tell with Vandal and if you build him up in a solo film(s), the hero who defeats him will look all the better for it.

Ra's Al Ghul

Like Vandal, Ra's has been around for centuries but where Vandal is just a sadistic savage, Ra's is a hero in his mind.

According to Birth of the Demon, Ra's al Ghul was born over 600 years to a tribe of Chinese nomads settling in the desert somewhere in North Africa. He developed an interest in the sciences at an early age and abandoned his tribe to live in the city where he pursued a life as a researcher.

Using Lazarus Pits to extend his life, Ra's spends the next several centuries journeying the world. He fights in the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars, becoming a formidable warrior. As the world entered the modern age and industrialisation began to cover much of the Earth, Ra's grew to despise humans, who he believed were destroying the world's natural beauty, setting him on a path of eco-terrorism. 

Sinestro

Sinestro was born on the planet Korugar in space sector 1417. His dedication to preserving order originally manifested in his previous career, an anthropologist specializing in reconstructions of ruins of long-dead civilizations. One day while he was on one such site, a Green Lantern named Prohl Gosgotha crash-landed into the site, injured and apparently dying. He quickly gave his ring to Sinestro, just in time for Sinestro, who barely even understood what the ring could do, to defend himself from the Lantern's pursuer: a Weaponer of Qward; however, Sinestro had to destroy the ruins he had spent time restoring in order to crush the Qwardian. Afterwards, Gosgotha turned out to still be alive and asked for his ring back to keep him alive long enough to get help. Sinestro, knowing this would mean not being a Green Lantern himself, instead let him die and took over his post. The Guardians were unaware of his actions.

Sinestro began using the power of the Green Lantern to instill fear rather than combat it and the Guardians banished Sinestro to the antimatter universe, a counterpart to the "real" universe made up of "negative matter". Sinestro believed himself to have been wronged by his former masters and now hated them. Creating a yellow power ring for Sinestro to use, the Weaponers sent him back to the "positive matter" universe to seek his revenge. Sinestro quickly became the Green Lantern Corps' most powerful nemesis, partially due to a weakness in their power rings that prevented them from directly affecting the color yellow. 

The more successful the villain, the more successful the picture. - Alfred Hitchcock
