[a fool in paradise]

Completelty outside of canon. Okay.

[yesthatjallen]

Exactly.

Just create a new, original character. Call him 'Mad Man', 'Deranged' or 'Nutjob'.

There's no reason to corrupt the integrity of old one.

I don't follow comic book franchises but I despise when they 're-imagine' a classic story or character.
