The part where Guardian's suit can make him stop moving relative to Earth's rotation seems like it would require some crazy physics.

Pfft, that's basically just super speed. Earth rotates around 1,000 MPH so that's not even Quicksilver speed.

If he's way up north in Canada, it's much slower. I don't know if that was ever shown.

Ehhh not as much a fan. I liked Blue Devil as a kid (yes I was alive when it originally published) but the more it leaned into the hell stuff the less I liked it.

Edit-whoops missed your point entirely. Yes I like the earlier stuff better, despite the warts of the time period

Blue Devil was my favorite comic as a kid. I have an entire collection of the first series. The whole technology and supernatural thing was kinda new at the time.

I enjoyed BD myself, but like too many humorous comics (looking at you, Justice League), it got sillier and more sitcom-ish as it went on. Still, silly was better than the grimdark stuff they did with BD during the Day of Judgment/Shadowpact era.

(And Paris Cullins was a great artist.)

'Truck-kun' being the preferred way to send heros on their isekai adventure is as much of a trope, as it is a meme.

So what happens if you make a series about the driver of Truck-kun?

Actually, the more unbelievable part is that the kid went into a stockbrokers' office, showed them his million dollars, and the stockbrokers invested the money for him instead of ripping him off.

Even more unbelievable is that they tried to reboot it.

Also, please note that the only way the writers could think of for a black kid to get that rich in the first place was a bank error. The other kids made their respective piles in oil, shipping, and movies, but ol' Token over there just got lucky.

It had a counterpart that released at the same time, too, that was meant to be like the other side of the coin.

It ended up making it to twelve issues.

Reading the wiki it said he made money with wise stock investments after the initial error but then apparently his wise stock investment was to show some guys he had money and for them to invest it for him.
