It's pointless wishful thinking, honestly.
Seriously. I mean, there was never any doubt - none whatsoever - that Peter would be brought back sometime before or maybe a little bit after Amazing Spider-Man 2 released. It's just too predictable, because Marvel is obsessed with making whatever changes are necessary to force their comics (square peg) to match up with the various movies (round hole) even if it derails some of the storylines.
...I don't get your meaning? Son of Batman isn't altering any status quo to fit a movie, it's just an extraordinarily shitty self-contained mini-series.Says the guy reading Damian Son of Batmank

I remember way back when Edgar Wright said he was starting to write Ant-man, he said it would feature Pym and Lang and would mix two different eras of the Ant-Man legacy. I had assumed that after all of this time, and since the Marvel Movieverse expanded so much since then, that those plans would have changed... so I was actually surprised by this news! I would be more than happy with Rashida Jones as Wasp, 'cause she's pretty damn awesome herself.
ed up continuity that is the new 52. I Never really got too far into "The New 52" with Barry Allen as Flash, but did they ever even dwell into the concept of the Speed Force yet?
It's very possible. If he doesn't stick around in the main universe, and ends up being from an alternate universe, I wouldn't mind them doing a separate Flash series featuring Wally in his own timeline. I'd buy it every month if the quality is there. I doubt they'd do that, though, unless it's as a mini series sometime later.
I won't go that far, surely the character has his fans. He'll probably earn some new ones once the tv series starts up too.
I Always thought it was spelled "segway".
Yeah, we seem to be among a minority of people who were cool with a non-Batman Gotham tv series. It had the potential to be very similar to Law and Order, sure, but I'd be giddy as hell nonetheless about some of the easter eggs they'd have. It wouldn't be random no-name criminals. It'd feature criminals like Joe Chill, Boss Zucco, the Falcone family, the Sionis family, maybe a few unsolved murders which occur that seem to have strange ties to the Court of Owls poem. You know, stuff like that. We knew from the beginning that the pilot would even involve the murder of Martha and Thomas Wayne.
Yeah, that's pretty much the kind of thing that I'd accept. I just don't think that The Joker should ever exist before Batman does. I'm perfectly fine with Red Hood, either as one criminal at a time who takes up the role, or the Zero Year version where they exist as an entire gang. I'd just prefer if none of them ever took the chemical bath until Batman is in action.
By now Joker is so iconic as the biggest Batman villain (or hell, might as well say the biggest villain in DC's stable) that I doubt they'll show him. Best they'll do is have him work in the shadows after his "origin" and you never see his face. Kinda like Inspector Gadget and CLAW or more on topic, like the Birds of Prey first episode. Remember that? No one does.
Yup, I'm beyond excited for the Constantine show. I'm not a fan of Goyer by any stretch of the imagination but I still think it'll be good, so long as John is blonde, british, and smokes a minimum of eight cigarets per episode. Having Zatanna as a recurring character wouldn't hurt either.
I've not read a single full issue of New 52 Flash, but the art in every preview I've read has been consistently amazing. If my pull list wasn't already so long I would have definitely been reading the series for that one reason alone.
Yeah, I get the feeling that DC editors wanted Superman and Batman both to become more prominent to maybe boost sales. They even got the writer of the Injustice comics to take over writing duties for Earth 2. It's funny because Superman is the guy's favorite character and he joked that DC has so far only let him write about evil versions.
What can you expect? They were the biggest heroes of their world. At least Batman is a totally different character and Superman is a bad guy.
The stats back this up. In case anyone is interested (data goes back to 2002)
So you don't watch the show much... yet you want the best-written character to be killed off? That's... kind of dumb.
Could that really be true, though? I personally don't think Norman Reedus is a particularly good actor. I don't even know if I'd consider him to be in the top 3 on the whole show.
This is pretty much my mindset for my disinterest in that character.
That would be nice. The Lex/Bizarro scenes are massively entertaining so far. It'd be a shame to lose that dynamic.
