Good to know that my DC knowledge isn't totally flawed. Though the fact he got his name from snapping his fingers a lot, that's interesting.

Is Snapper Carr a reporter character in the comics? I don't know why, but I was under the impression he was sort of DC's Rick Jones character, but on this show he's just a grizzled new guy. And if he is different from his root character, it makes me wish they'd used the name of a reporter character from the Superman…

I don't have a whole lot of interest in a telling of Dr. Strange's origin as a movie, but if they adapted the Montesi Formula story where he and Blade and the rest of the cast from Tomb of Dracula put an end to vampires on Earth (for a few years), I'd be into that.

F'real. When the show started and we got a post-Superman-sidekick Jimmy, I was hoping he'd be the kind of guy who'd been through everything and could therefore provide exposition about stuff. The kind of guy who could tell a werewolf created by a magic curse from a werewolf created by a scientific serum because he'd…

I have to admit, Diamondback may have been the least interesting of the villains on the show to me, but I like how loyal to the comics his ridiculous suits was.

Every bit of news of a new Gorrilaz album makes me hope that we will eventually get a sequel to that book.

I liked "God Bless You, Dr. Kevorkian" as a take on this concept.

And, worse to me, this version of Lois and Clark has no personal history with this world's Jimmy or Perry or Lana and so on.

I only care about the Superman family titles, and they've been readable and all, but if we are going to explore a Lois and Clark as parents status quo, I would have much rathered it not be tacked onto the "from a different universe" thing.

It's strange because on Horsin' Around, Bojack's character was just "the Horse" and, as far as I can remember, no other animal-person characters have been seen in flashbacks to episodes. In some way, that show's universe seems to have different relationship to animal-people different than Bojack's "real" universe and…

Just remember, we could all be killed at any moment. Good night everybody!

This is the version that will be rated-R, right? I'm just hoping they give Doomsday some junk.

I respect this.

I prefer to think of him less as "a godlike entity who's chosen to live among humanity as one of us, serving as an example of what we could be" and more "what if a good, decent person had power and actually used it to benefit humanity for a change."

I equate Superman with humanist sci-fi like Star Trek. Is the Enterprise full of weird powers? It is, but you can craft a story where the Enterprise is in danger. But better than that is if the story has some meaning or commentary about society.

SHIELD has crazy insurance on their helicarriers, so every time one is destroyed they get even richer.

The fact that Jimmy questioned the idea of alternate Earths, coupled with the fact Cat had to come up with the name "Bizarro" makes me suspect that the Superman of this world may have had a very boring career.

No, I got it. There are circles. One of the circles was a Nazi, one of them saved JFK. Circles.

There must be someone out there who agrees with me that each character would be better served if the other never appeared in their stories. I've enjoyed some Superman/Batman crossovers, but if they never met again, I'd be fine with it.

Something I'd like next season but is not related to this season is an actual flashback to the Boys Brigade.
