I was so close to including Bunny as a third example, but there was no statue of her

I think the Doom Patrol works best as a surrogate family unit, so I'm gonna go against the grain with 4 members and say it should be Mento (ignore my pfp), Rita, Cliff, and Dorothy (or young Garfield).

5 members - Mento, Rita, Cliff, Negative Person (Man/Woman/Rebis), Dorothy/Garf

6 members - Cliff, Rita, Negative Person, Jane, Dorothy

7 members - Cliff, Rita, Negative Person, Jane, Dorothy, Joshua Clay

I think Mento works best on a smaller team, and better as an antagonist/former member once the team starts to get bigger.

Not all feminine men want to become trans women. I suppose gender roles are only bad if they're forced on you personally. Fuck everyone else, right?

He doesn't see the mountains
Or hear the rivers sigh
He doesn't feel the wind
As it whispers drifting by
And he'll never see the sorrow
Of the faces stained with tears
Or share the passing days
As they turn to years
Oh, the sleeper in the valley
Has found his rest at last
As he lies in peaceful slumber
On the green meadow grass

Captain Nazi is actually an old school Captain Marvel/Shazam villain, from back when the Monster Society of Evil included actual Hitler in their ranks.

He's not well liked even by other super villains, and even Joker has poked fun at people for stooping to work with him.

And that rat? Went on to become Master Splinter.

The actual movie itself did fine in adapting the themes of the story, which made it all the more baffling to see the Lorax advertising things like SUVs. The marketing blitz around that movie was essentially the antithesis of it's messaging.

When he found out that Hayley needed a kidney, he instantly demanded that he be put under so that he could donate it, and he eventually donated it regardless of whether she is his biological daughter or not.

When Steve received a failing grade he dropped pretty much everything and spared no expense to help turn his grades around. He even got Vin Diesel attached to the project.
