It's definitely up there. Although I'm plowing through Season 3 of Arrow right now and I'm enjoying the hell out of it, cheese and all. I think the ideal way to digest Arrow is by season, two years later.

Oh hey, that's right, Cyborg is castrated as well. Thanks for reminding me.

They don't have a lot of diversity in their main cast of characters. The other black superhero they have with any amount of name recognition is a Green Lantern, and WB fucked that film up beyond apparent repair. So now they're pushing Cyborg.

Season 1 of Supergirl, and three seasons of Justice League cartoons put the lie to that. Goyer is such a goober.

I used to work in a comic shop and one of my black customers once pointed out to me how many black (and minority) superheroes don't have actual powers. They're cyborgs or have gadgets or skateboards or power suits. My rebuttal was basically Luke Cage and Storm. And he was like, Steel, Prowler, War Machine, Cyborg,…

I was excited, dammit!

I remember my heart rate going up when the unnamed, unseen SHIELD operative reached for a rifle, thought better of it, and grabbed the bow. I may have even verbalized a "Holy shit."

No one cares about Cyborg. Literally no one is excited about a Cyborg movie.

It would be fun!

Gunn is obviously a natural for Atari Force.

I am, mostly because of the HP Lovecraft Literary Podcast. I think that's the boys' hometown.

He's a big dog.

Superman is hard to do, apparently. I think the Donner film had the right tone - Reeve definitely did a bang up job as the the Last Son of Krypton - but was hampered by special effects technology and script problems. Singer was too reverent towards the Donner film, but otherwise could have done something special, and…

I'm not sold on Strange either. It doesn't help that I really don't care for the character - at least for all the other Marvel movies I have a base affection to build on regarding them. But Stephen Strange is such a dick with esoteric adventures - he never really worked for me.

It's okay. I sort of enjoyed it as a junior high person, but was kind of disappointed at how easily (yet legitimately) the Creature from the Black Lagoon was done away with. And then the army shows up at the end because of a letter written in crayon… and I realized what kind of movie I'd actually been watching. I…

The Dark Knight is easily the perfect comic book movie for me. I also saw it in the theater three times. I know its fashionable to hate the Nolan films now, and TDK has suffered a strange backlash because TDKR had so many structural problems, but I can't think of a superhero movie that not only satisfied all my fanboy…

I'm pretty sure I had a Devlin coloring book as a kid.

The only Marvel book I get is Black Panther, and every month I look at that price tag and wonder: will it be worth it this month? So far it has survived being yanked from my pull list, but I'm not sure I'll keep it past the first arc. Or even next month.

Whoah, lotsa big eyes here!

The Captain America films have been consistently the best of the bunch, but I'd be a liar if I didn't vote for the Nolan Dark Knight trilogy as my deserted island pick.
