Kooey Kooey Kooey is a fictional country in the DC Universe.

Fictional country country that exists only in fiction and not in reality

A fictional country is a country that is made up for fictional stories, and does not exist in real life, or one that people believe in without proof. Sailors have always mistaken low clouds for land masses, and in later times this was given the name Dutch capes. Other fictional lands appear most commonly as settings or subjects of myth, literature, film, or video games. They may also be used for technical reasons in actual reality for use in the development of specifications, such as the fictional country of Bookland, which is used to allow EAN "country" codes 978 and 979 to be used for ISBN numbers assigned to books, and code 977 to be assigned for use for ISSN numbers on magazines and other periodicals. Also, the ISO 3166 country code "ZZ" is reserved as a fictional country code,.

Fictional island biography

Originally inhabited by natives, the Chief of Kooey Kooey Kooey decided to send many of the young men and women of his village to Ivy League colleges in America. Herb, one of the favored students, spends six years at Brooklyn College, a four-year school (as Herb explains, "The language requirement really threw me.") Herb, with the skeptical encouragement of the Chief, sought out the Justice League and brokered an embassy deal between them and the island.

Club JLI

Later, the Green Lantern Kilowog, Blue Beetle and Booster Gold construct an ill-fated casino and resort known as Club JLI. Transport was arranged through standard-issue Justice League teleport tubes. Though seemingly successful, a near meta-human ability to count cards by the villain Big Sir (assisted by the villain Major Disaster) broke the bank. Club JLI went bankrupt just as Aquaman arrived on the island to warn of the island's awareness. [1] It turns out the two entities know each other[ clarification needed ]. Before this threat could be studied, the island uprooted and swam some hundred miles away. This action endangers the life of Lord, Huntress, and Ice, who are temporarily stranded in the middle of the ocean. Major Disaster stops the island's movement with a well-placed, non-destructive volcanic eruption. [1]

Dreamslayer

The extra dimensional villain Dreamslayer kidnaps the alternate universe robotic expert Mitch Wacky. While inhabiting the body of Maxwell Lord, he takes over the island and establishes a base with which to rebuild the Extremists. [2] Dreamslayer takes over the minds and bodies of all the inhabitants of the island. When the Justice League arrives, they are faced with the dilemma of defeating the natives without hurting them. This results in Silver Sorceress being hit in the stomach by an arrow fired by a native. Mitch Wacky does not survive his imprisonment, killed by Dreamslayer. The Sorceress, before she dies of her wound, subdues and entraps Dreamslayer. She is buried on the island.

Dreamslayer is a fictional character, a powerful DC Comics supervillain and part of the evil gang called Extremists.

The location was last featured in Suicide Squad volume 2 when it was effectively destroyed (at least any human settlings on the island were) by a tidal wave sent by the extra-dimensional invaders called The Covenant.

Alternate versions

An alternate future version of the island was shown to be the site of Maxwell Lord's retirement. This was broken up when Booster Gold again arrives from the future. [3]
