New Frontier: How the Trinity were Formed
From the DC: New Frontier special released to coincide with the release of the movie.

Contains possible spoilers for the series, if you already haven't read it yet. And if that's the case, go! Go now and read it!

Diana and Clark are asked to arrest Batman for him operating as a superhero, after the McCarthy hearings has lead to the US government declaring them to be illegal, with Diana and Supes being really the only two exceptions.

Diana refuses to arrest "an honorable man in the name of freedom and liberty" and walks off. Clark however, goes to see Ike to see if Eisenhower can explain why he should arrest a man they know to be a good man.

Cutting to Metropolis and Gotham,

After a lengthy and exciting fight scene, which I unfortunately had to cut to make the page limit, but just when Batman has enraged Superman almost to the point of squashing his head... Diana ex machina!

Diana's plan is that they stage a fight between Clark and Bruce in the middle of Gotham that ends in a draw and Bruce escaping. Clark doesn't really like the idea of lying about this, but he goes through with it in the spirit of their new friendship.

Damn that costume's awesome. ^^

	These scans are making me imagine Kal, Diana and Bruce as a three-man cell from the Narutoverse. What would they be like? Cool, something to think about during smoke breaks tonight. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	That'd be awesome, but would they hire themselves out as Ninja? Would they even participate in the Ninja wars? SO MANY PLOTS TO CONSIDER! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Motto on the plots!

I see Bats as being the KoumoriKage of his own village. Something like Village in Hidden in the Shadow of the Bat. Jounin: Nightwing, Oracle, Huntress, Batgirl. Chunin: Drake, Spoiler. Genin: Damien. Village Elders: Alfred, Jim. Missing-Nin: Jason Todd, Catwoman. Bats is the master of Ninjtisutu and Maito Guy style training and forbidden jutsu.

Diana is of course the Kage of Themscriycra. Hidden Island something? Tajistu master and summoning master. The lasso could be considered a very high level gensujutsu.

Kal has to be a wandering sage of Justice. Being Kryptonian is the ultimate Bloodline trait. Last survivor of a destroyed clan, raised by kindly rice farmers. A wandering scribe and poet.

Elements?

Kal: Wind and Fire

Diana: Earth and Lightning

Bruce: Hard one, I want have be darkness or shadows...hmmm.

So many things to consider!!

	Given the elemental style, Bats might be Water and Wind elements. (Reply to this) (Parent)

Power trios ftw!

If Clark already discovered his powers and everyone knows about them, he's the golden child of the village. Otherwise he'd be pretty average - think Sakura but less of an brilliant student than her. He'd come from a civilian, loving family living on the outskirts of the village and no-one would originally know he was the last son of the quasi-mythical village on Krypton. Then he'd discover his bloodline, maybe with the help of his teammates. He'd be a ninjutsu specialist - that's the easiest to guesss of the three.

Diana would be the leader. That's because she'd be most likely to look at things surrounding her with clarity and feel the want to straighten things out. She'd get aware of the political tensions and she'd get them and she'd care. She'd have come from a far away village as part of an exchange between the two cultures, or because as the daughter of the Kage she was sent there for... some reason. She'd be quasi universally trusted and respected, because of how wise and how accomplished she'd be. Diana would be good at tactics, the lasso would be an artifact removing genjutsu, and her things would be taijutsu and close-range ninjutsu. Chakra-control seems like a good idea for her, but the earth-shattering punches seem as much Clark's area of expertise as hers.

Bruce would be the 'doesn't play well with others, my body moved on its own to save you' one. He'd still wouldn't kill people because he saw his parents get murdered in front of him. I'm not sure whether the Waynes would have been a ninja family or not, but Bruce would drop out of the ninja business - around chuunin exam or so - in order to protect the people of the city without having to obey police/ANBU rules, and he'd play the part of Millionaire Playboy Bruce Wayne. He'd probably be good at traps, and he'd have to rely on taijutsu alone, because he wouldn't have chakra. To make up for it, he'd rely on smarts, theatrics, and dirty tricks to make up for it. And shuriken. He'd like the shuriken. Everyone out of his trusted people would think he used some genjutsu and discreet ninjutsu, though.

I'm such a geek, I'm trying to match up which character has the personality closest to the Big Three. From what I've thought up, Kakashi and Bats is kind of similar since both of them are deeply affected by the deaths of people close to them and that's why they are sort of detached from one another, both of them are good strategist/detective but are often outclassed in terms of power, both of them are good father figure/ teacher to a bunch of kids, lets see how about Superman and the Third since both of them have similar beliefs about peace, love and understandings and both of them were hailed for their power and as for Wonder woman, how about her and Tsunade (without her gambling and drinking fetish) in terms of raw power they are pretty much equal and even though Tsunade has temper problems she can be very understanding at times and can be strong and diligent when shit happens **cough**Jiraiya's death** cough**..... and you could even compare Gai and Ollie.
