Hello, I'm currently working on the first issue of Ultimate Seven Soldiers of Victory. The book's going to be written old style. Full cast int he first part, separate heroes in each subsequent chapter and then everyone assembles in the end.
What I actually prefer in SSV over JSA is that the SSV are much more normal. Relatively minor powers and a few devices, but generally not too much. Plus, it's 1950! Real events and real people, how would our heroes be rubbing elbows with the 1950 USA in their civilian identities?
There's a lot about the current (1950) state of society and aliens.
I'm a pretty tight continuity guy, so ages and jobs and locations will all be kept as much as I can. Well, actually, I'm 50% continuity nut and 50% too lazy to come up with a new plot.
Big difference is that I'm using TNT and Dan the Dyna-mite instead of Green Arrow and Speedy. Pretty much everything else in the same as pre-crisis Earth. I plan on using occasional mentions of JSAers but no appearances. The mentions will probably be of the envious variety.
Anyway, this is a seven issue story. prolog, 5 chapters and an epilog. If I survive this, well ... we'll see.
Please feel free to comment and give me any ideas.
