Ha! Bumped after a one-year hiatus!
Or, just ignore it and wait for it to be re-bumped in September 2008.
(I've forgotten #3. Need to look that up again)

YOU are correct, sir.
Although, at the time, fanboys liked to call him "Breakwynd"

I'd participate, but those are some tough questions and I don't read DC :).

I always wondered about the time he was Bloodwynd. It never really made sense to me

The deal was that some demon has mind-controlled J'onn to become Bloodwynd. The "Blood Gem" was possessed with the spirits of dead slaves, or something. J'onn eventually broke free of the demon's control and a "true" Bloodwynd existed.
If I remember correctly, J'onn first appeared as Bloodwynd when the JL:A reformed around late 1991 (in the "Justice League Spectacular" special). They teased everyone for about a year with who Bloodwynd was. During the Doomsday attacks, Blue Beetle saw Bloodwynd turn into J'onn... but the readers didn't see it. Beetle went into a coma after that. Sometime in 1993, J'onn and Bloodwynd split and everything was revealed. Bloodwynd joined the JL:A and J'onn started up the "Justice League Task Force".
