The Boy Who Fell From The Sky
Not A Real Chapter (Sorry!)
Just a message from the author. Skip to the next chapter if you're not interested in the ramblings of a fanfiction writer!
Hey guys! As mention above; this is not a real chapter, thanks to you guys this fic is my first one to hit 200 reviews, 700 followers, 500 favorites and 60,000 hits!! That's monumental and I wanted to take this chapter to actually thank my readers and talk a little bit about the upcoming chapters and where I intend to take this story.
Most of the stories I write have a grand plan to them that for one reason or another I fail to execute. There are at least four to six crossovers on my profile page that I had intended to go somewhere big but whether it was because of time constraints, writers block, unfavorable reviews or some other such problem I failed to finish.
This story's response has me in a mindset that is different from those previous attempts and I am determined to finish this arc and am already planning the next one. I intend to make this into a saga of sorts with atleast a couple of novel length stories.
Unfortunately I have a full time job and barely any spare time. For this reason I can not ever guarantee constant updates however I can promise that I'll attempt to post much more longer chapters akin to chapter fifteen previously.
Now I would first of all like to really whole heartedly thank the reviewers for their kind and encouraging words.
Onto the meat of this chapter, I would like to outline how I envision these characters that I am writing about. I think that would give you readers a little bit more of an insight into this story.
Lets start with Clark.
Clark Kent in my minds eye is portrayed by Tom Welling. This is not because I particularly enjoy the Smallville series or have any intention of incorporating stroylines from it, but for the reason that in my opinion, putting nostalgia aside, Tom's portrayal of Clark is the most on point performance of the Kryptonian that has been put on screen that is not animated.
Cavill fans if you take off those six pack blinders you'll realize that that dreary wet suit wearing hunk of muscle does not represent a single ounce of charisma, optism or genuine outlook on life that Superman has. He's nice to look at, yes. But that's sort of all he's got.
And Chris is just too campy for my story, I'm sorry. He's still the best movie adaptation, I'll give him that. But the overall win goes to Tom and that's who I think of when writing this story.
MCU characters are of course MCU characters but Kara is definitely the Melissa Benoist version as shown by the inclusion of Alex who's exclusive to the series. I mean could there be a better portrayal of Supergirl than on that show?
There will be a host of other DC and Marvel characters introduced in the upcoming chapters and rest assured that the Magical world will not be forgotten in the skirmishes to come.
To talk about upcoming plans for the story, I won't give too much away but it's safe to say that each story will probably follow the MCU phases with this story ending with the first Avengers.
Sprinkled in between will be DC characters from the CW shows and of course Batman from possibly the comics or the Arkham Game series. I am not touching any of those live action iterations with a ten foot pole so don't even ask. I don't think the Dark Knight will make an appearance till the the second phase so it will be a bit of a wait.
There is another avenue that I want to explore once phase one and two are done. Anyone familiar with the Injustice Games series knows that they deal with Multiverses from the get go, I was thinking what if when Batman asks an alternate Superman for help he stumbles along my Universe instead of which ever Earth's Superman he does in the game. Can you imagine this Clark, Harry and Hermione, Supergirl and the Avengers all going to an alternate universe to fight an evil Justice League?
But that of course will be a spinoff. I have to finish this initial arc first in order to start on that.
I have a tendency to be distracted from my writing, as I have mentioned before and I do apologize for that. I've recently gotten into SuperCorp fics and I have to say, I'm thinking of changing my Arrowverse OTP from SuperFlash to SuperCorp, the Supergirl x Lena Luthor dynamic is great and there are so many well written fics out there.
Anyways I've taken too much of your time. This has already been an 800 word authors note that kept getting longer. But fret not! I made sure that I posted this non chapter with an actual chapter so you can move on to see what happened next in The Boy Who Fell From The Sky immediately. Cheers!
