And somebody to ask that version of Huntress "Why don't you carry any weapons?" so she can saucily reply "I am a weapon." (That happened in the pilot. It wasn't very good.)

I'm still holding to my opinion that there's either going to be one disappointing scene with a boatload of half-second cameos, or this is going to be one of the biggest fanboy overloads on TV. With the casting info that's come out I can't see it landing anywhere in between, and with the shows' history it could go either way.

site posted:was that a thing in the comics Not that I am aware of, but I don't really read DC and there's a lot of stories there. I am mostly imagining some DC higher-up butts in and demands that plotline because he considers straight people underrepresented and doesn't want to perpetuate the gay agenda. DC has potential to ruin pretty much any premise, if they set their hearts to it. That being said, they could potentially surpass my mediocre expectations.

e: ^^ oh fuckin yikes I hadn't heard about thatsite posted:yall seriously underestimate the desire to see a superhero show about a lesbian, played by a lesbian, co-developed and written by a lesbian No, I get it. I totally 100% understand the desire for representation in both characters, actors, and actual creative people on a project. I just also wish the show was good instead of...what it's probably going to be. But hey, maybe they course-correct! It's always possible! Dawgstar posted:Isn't Sara Lance bi, or do they forget that?

The DCEU was masterminded by someone who wanted to emulate Frank Miller, but the CW shows are made by someone who wanted to replicate Marv Wolfman and Gerry Conway.

90's Flash, starring current Flash's dad with Mark Hammill as the Trapster. Hammill guested in current Flash as the former Trapster who's son was carrying on his legacy. So a Hammill cameo isn't out of the question, especially since he's friends with Conroy.
