Let's see, we have multiple titles for Superman, Batman, Green Lantern(s), Justice League, plus titles for everyone who's ever been a sidekick for any of them. And this is the version where all the "vines of continuity" have been stripped away?

Yes, but that would also mean we're finally on the verge of having real life superheroes! Watchmen be damned, I welcome this development with open arms.

Totally missed the part about Jim Lee being a co-publisher for DC. Liefeld's employment makes even more sense now.

Rob Liefeld is friends with Jim Lee. DC wants to keep Jim Lee happy and drawing pictures for their big titles, so they keep Liefeld employed drawing a minor title that nobody cares about.

Oh God. Bilquis. How the hell are they going to pull THAT off without frightening away every single male viewer?

Vin Diesel as Shadow?

And of course the opening credits animation would have to be based on the art of Dave McKean.

I assume that seasons 2 and 3 will focus entirely on Shadow's winter in Wisconsin.

No love for the cockroach from Wall-E or the prawns from District 9?

I'm a little surprised that Dr. Coppelius has never found his way into any Neil Gaiman works.

Green lantern is just following Avatar in the budding "cartoons posing as live-action films" genre.

It would look a whole lot better if they'd just dispense with the pretense and just make it a CGI cartoon.

I don't want to view every freaking alien wrinkle and scale! I want a lot of those wrinkles and scales to be blurry and obscured by shadows, as if I'm watching footage of real creatures interacting with a real environment. I know that CGI designers are proud of their work and want to show off how pretty it looks,

While I don't think it would be impossible to make a Justice League movie, it would definitely be a much more difficult task than the Avengers movie.

The one below He-Man is Hank Venture, obviously.

Probably because "vacation near the arctic circle" brings up memories of Die Another Day.

"Identifying with a character who expresses some of their own impulses is probably not any worse for them in the long term than having those exceedingly common impulses in the first place."

I thought The Matrix was the sequel to Terminator?

That's not a Frankenstein story. That's a completely unrelated (though actually kind of cool-sounding) steampunk story that cynically chose the name Victor Frakenstein for its main character because it would sell more copies.
