Yeah Medusa just looks like a techno goth. The only thing petrified there would be her music taste

I only read the one Creature Commando comic and that was back in the early 80s. IIRC, they went with her being a beautiful woman who normally wore a turban and who could use her petrifying power at will on humans when she took it off. It didn't work on other monsters, but she did use her snakes to calm down the Frankenstein one time he got a bit crazy after literally tilting windmills*. * which were secretly hiding nazi machinegun nests. He lifted up one side of the windmill and the human on the team tossed in a grenade. Pretty cool poo poo to read for a young kid in the 80s.

thrawn527 posted:Is it? When is that coming out? James Gunn's first tweet above seems to imply that Creature Commandos will be the first "chapter 1" (or whatever) project released on TV. Is the Waller show a bridge between old DCU and the new one, so...chapter 0.5 or something? That was how the series was explained when it was first announced. Basically the series would follow from the end of Peacemaker S1 as a spin-off series and follow her and be developed by other creators while Gunn is busy with the other DC projects before he returns for Peacemaker S2 which will probably semi follow from Waller.

Ah, but does it take place in the MoS DCU, the The Flash DCU, the Shazam 2 DCU, the Blue Beetle DCU or the as yet hypothetical new DCU?

Superman is THE superhero to build your cinematic universe around. Never mind Batman standing over there, looking dejected with the half-dozen recent-ish blockbuster hits under his belt. And please don't look at the last cinematic universe we built around Superman, we didn't mean to do it like that!

Superman is at his best when he isn't even there. When something has a contrasting-Superman or conspicuous absence of such a figure, seem to open the door to more interesting fresh stories. And kind of doubt that's what they'll be doing trying to re re re set up their own MCU

Have him show up in cowl and the whole nine yards and have everyone play it straight, but never actually cut to him, you know, actually doing anything. Keep it all offscreen.

Just came in to say that the Peacemaker / Judomaster fight dialog is some of the realest and most believable fight dialog that has ever made it into film, ever. Judomaster: gently caress you! Peacemaker: gently caress YOU! Judomaster: Fucker!

The DC universe never should have existed. I'm not that into comics, but my understanding is that the real strength of DC comics versus Marvel was their willingness to give creative artists a chance to use existing characters to tell stories that weren't necessarily canon to continuity.

Agreed. A handful of unique DC movies with something interesting to say w characters would be preferred over trying to recreate Superfriends.

No, DCs thing is more originally wanting to have multiple canons each applicable to a different universe (Earth 1, Earth 2, etc) and then constantly changing their mind and rebooting and merging universes to mess with their own continuity. I prefer Grant Morrison’s Hypertime explanation of continuity which basically boils down to “Don’t worry about it too much, it’s cool, whatever”.

This was never the case. In fact DC's decline in sales and popularity happened in the 60's when Marvel came into being and caught on with having ongoing continuity-based stories and DC kept sticking to "what if Superman married a gorilla" one-offs long after it was clear that's not what the audience wanted. If you mean prestige series made by a specific creative team that lack continuity like The Dark Night Rises or Kingdom Come then Marvel does those too. It's not much of a distinction.

Maybe they're thinking of the DC imprint Vertigo that did let interesting creative take a shot at established DC characters in continuity or non continuity. It was a nice couple of decades run

I loved Steel because they never talked about out that Superman guy, I'm all about Shaq being a super hero. Golly, I wish we could go back to those days when people who hated comic books were in charge of stuff.
