Image ID: A stylized drawing of Vic Sage, the Question. He’s standing, turned to grab at a bundle of conspiracy-board style strings. His face is obscured by a featureless mask. His blue trenchcoat sways with him as he stops turning. His socks are the same yellow as his vest and hair. End image ID.

Once again with Mr. Touch Tone Telephone. Click for better quality

I get that he’s just a normal no-powers guy in canon, but I can’t get the idea out of my head of him having the ability to actually physically see how people are connected and intertwined with each other.

Like imagine living surrounded by other people’s loves and friendships and secrets while having none of your own. Still determined to try and sort through the threads, if only to know who did this to you but each string you grasp slips through your hands or unwinds into nothing or ignores you altogether until you’re engulfed by all that is and all that you have lost.

I think it’d be a little overwhelming.

Can anyone recommend some Question comics?

I've started reading the ones from 1987 and I really liked them so far.

The Moon is a card of illusion and deception, and therefore often suggests a time when something is not as it appears to be.

Next up, Dennis O'Neil's novelizations!

Knightfall Novel

There's even less Renee in this than in the comics Knightfall arc, since the fight with Zsasz is changed to have one of his victims fight back instead. It's actually a cool choice.

An extremely cursed Shiva, but it's very funny that she and Bruce have only met once and it was because of Vic. Fuck Death in the Family, O'Neil wants you to know about his guy.

Most of the novel is nothing too interesting and the prose is pretty rough. I think it's neat seeing how O'Neil shifts it, what he considers important and what he leaves behind, but like... it's still just Knightfall again.

Helltown

I have complicated feelings about Helltown.

The opening line introduces "Charles Victor Szasz, who was not yet either Vic Sage or the Question", and more than any of the plot changes this is what makes it more than an adaptation of the mayor plotline from the O'Neil run.

This is effectively a Vic who's all O'Neil and no Ditko, and it's a fascinating take, but also? He's less interesting when he sucks less. Vic is far more self-aware from the very beginning and it kills a lot of the growth.

Tot and Myra are closer to their comic selves, but they're both a little bit less messy. Myra's chill about raising Jackie by herself, Tot doesn't have the Pseudoderm medical negligence background.

Batman's a LOT more involved than in the original. I don't mind most of it, this is an A+ petty weirdo Bruce, but having him be the one who pushes Vic to get a vigilante identity is so much less interesting than Vic picking up his hero identity as a natural extension of his reporter persona. Also, generally, it takes some of the interest out of Vic's adventures when Batman's sharing the spotlight.

On the same lines, I don't like that Vic makes an active attempt to have a good secret identity. He should be bad at hiding it.

Very fun that pulp heroes are real in this version of the DC universe. Batman got trained by the Shadow, the Green Hornet is a real guy, it's great.

The plot is solid, but it being one large arc with big stakes doesn't work as well as the set of smaller arcs that link together from the original.

Generally I'd describe it as a less compelling version of the 87 run, but with enough high points and interesting additions that it's still worth checking out.

The Question

AKA Vic Sage

AKA Charles Victor Szasz

Age: 41

Height: 6′1

Hair color: Naturally red, when masked up dark brown

Eye color: Dark brown

Personal Style: He is either a fashion icon or a fashion disaster, everyone is entitled to their own opinion

Alias: The Question. The face-less vigilante of Hub City Ranked #1 in Travilocity’s “10 Cities In America You Absolutely Do NOT Ever Want to Visit”. The Questions prowls the streets and hovels abandoned by the police searching for answers. His home town is a trash heap, but someone’s gotta keep an eye on it right?

The Question’s costume hinges on a material called pseudoderm, created by an old professor of Vic’s. This skin like substance sticks to his face, triggered by an aerosol spray which also temporarily changes the color of his hair and clothes rendering the perfect disguise. The sheet of fake skin cannot be taken off without the aerosol spray so to most people this urban legend of a face-less vigilante is hella fucking creepy!

Background:

Born and raised in an orphanage, Charles Victor Szasz grew up bullied by fellow kids, abused by the nuns sanctioned to take care of him, and generally incredibly pissed off. His naturally over extended curiosity, and aggressive disposition got him in oodles of trouble growing up, getting caught up in cycles of sticking his nose where it did not belong, disproportionate punishment, and reactionary anger.

Charlie got out of Hub City based on his only saving grace, his keen intelligence. A full ride for university in Chicago, on track for a journalism major shocking many who did not believe Charlie would ever amount to anything. Despite getting out his affinity for trouble followed the young man. He did not fit in with the prestigious and pretentious, standing out among his peers, looking very much like something gnawed on and spit out (half digested) by the infamous Hub City.

One friendly face was found in a philosophy professor, Aristotle “Tot” Rodor, who saw potential in Charlie. Tot did his best to nudge Charlie on the right track, but alas, this was a challenge easier said than done for this willful and spirited student. In the second semester of his junior year Charlie was expelled from the college for beating up a professor in the middle of a lecture– the guy had been asking for it with his bigoted rhetoric as he shanelessly harassed Charlie based on classist ignorance, something in the young man snapped. Despite the attempts of Professor Rodor to speak in defense of his favorite student, the board of education deemed Charlie’s behavior unacceptable and gave him the boot. The ignorant professor of course was allowed to stay on though he “graciously” agreed not to press any charges.

Was a lesson learned?

Hell no.

Charles Victor Szasz popped his collar, flipped academia the bird, and kept on keeping on.

Changing his name to Vic Sage, and with the cheer tenacity of a Hub City asshole broke his way through in independent reporting. Vic Sage made a lot of enemies with his determination to deliver hard cold facts no matter what. Though many scoffed off his reports as outlandish conspiracy theories, others threatened to sue him for defamation as he often dragged the names of many big wigs through the mud, he grew a loyal following who knew when Vic Sage delivered the news it was at the expense of everyone who got in the way of the truth.

As he grew more famous it became more difficult for Vic to conduct his “investigations” which often involved strategies not necessarily deemed legal by the eyes of the law. So Tot (still in touch from university days) offered Vic a solution in terms of his old invention created as a type of bandage. He didn’t necessarily agree with Vic’s approach, but he still wanted the kid to be safe. “Pseudoderm” would allow Vic to hide his face, and keep him anonymous as he went about gathering information– going about calling himself “The Question” when asked.

The anonymity emboldened Vic to take it a step further, employing the scrappy street fighting techniques he’d been forced to learn growing up in Hub City, The Question became something of a vigilante, sparring a moment to beat up bad guys who got in the way of his pursuit for answers.

With this new reputation and alias acquired, Vic returned to Hub City to try and shed light on the many corrupt dealings that continued to drag his home town under.

The Death of Vic Sage:

In order to reach untapped potential, Vic had to die first to trigger a metamorphosis.

Over confident and meddlesome as always, Vic, dressed as The Question stuck his nose where it didn’t belong. A woman named Lady Shiva had been hired by Vic’s current targets of investigation. This woman not only bested Vic in hand to hand combat- fighting unlike anything Vic had ever encountered before –but she killed him and callously threw his body in a frozen lake.

And yet. Vic did not die?

He awoke in a cabin far from civilization under the care of a man who called himself Richard Dragon. Dragon explained that Shiva chose to pull Vic out of the water and bring him back here for healing? Why she did so, was unclear, but if Shiva saw some sort of potential in Vic then Dragon felt inclined to honor that call. He took it upon himself to whip Vic (first reluctant) into shape.

Spending several months with Dragon, healing, and training mentally and physically, Vic emerged from this experience a new man. For one thing he learned a proper martial arts form from his new mentor, for another he was shown strategies to control that temper and emotions which so often ruled his actions.

When Vic returned to Hub City it was as an enlightened man.

Still annoying as fuck, but a new kind of annoying. The kind of annoying that quit smoking and took up yoga and meditation.

It’s tough to say which Vic is the real Vic. The patient and easy going smart ass with a new habit of finding troubled people and setting them on the right path. Or the Vic that still loses himself to anger on occasion, stubborn and set on delivering answers no matter the cost…
