Quisp was NOT from the Fifth Dimension!!! He came from a hidden land beneath the Atlantic Ocean. It was Grant Morrison who reassigned everyone's favorite water sprite to the 5th D as part of his shameless and colossally unimaginative rip-off of Alan Moore's "Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow."
The Native American girlfriend of the Torch mentioned above was race car driver Rebecca Rainbow.
I was always partial to Iron Man's supporting cast during the first Michelinie/Layton run: Bethany Cabe, Bambi Arbogast, Vic Martinelli, Artie Pithins, Yvette Avril, Ling McPherson, and of course, the pre-War Machine Jim Rhodes. There's a cool bunch of minor players associated with the Bronze Age Superman too, like Clark's co-workers at WGBS (Josh Coyle, Oscar Asherman, Lola Barnett, Laura Conway) and his neighbors at 331 Clinton Street (April and May Marigold, Frank Thomas, Mrs. Goldstein). Also the Daredevil cast from his San Francisco days.
Cei-U!
Wll think of more later!

I admit to stupidly being unsure how to parse this from the OP: But having followed the thread, I think I get it and want to mention Peter Parker's neighbors Glory Grant and Joseph "Lonesome" Pinkus. I also really grew attached to Peter's friends in the biophysics department of Empire State University (Class of '83, what!), Marcy, Steve, and Phil  , not to mention Doctor Sloan and . . .Debra Whitman. |

How in the world is Crisis in the 5th Dimension a Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow rip off? |

I really liked what Paul Jenkins did with Spider-man's supporting cast a decade or so back. It was in one of those periods where Mary Jane was dead, and he tried to build a new, funny, and quite engaging supporting cast for Peter from basically the ground up. I can't BELIEVE Kevin the Cheese never got his own comic. Agreed. There was a whole load of them back then...Kevin, Candy, Barker. I miss those supporting cast members. |

How in the world is Crisis in the 5th Dimension a Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow rip off? Not the entire storyline, just the part where the main villain is a formerly-benign magical mischief-maker (Quisp in C5D, Mxyzptlk in WHTTMOT) who got bored with being good. Cei-U! I summon the clarification! |
