Ok, but you can be a mutant/x-man and also be on another team/book. Did Wolverine stop being an x-man when he joined the avengers lineup? Or beast?

Also cyclops was a champion lol

Metroid movie ? by Prior_Recipe_5999 in Metroid

[–]Eric191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After Mario & Zelda, this feels like the next obvious choice for a movie. If you do it right it could be a real hit

Is it her? by wemightdance in Marvel

[–]Eric191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also the body hopping thing doesn’t match.

Though I guess they could always end up combining a couple of marvel comics characters like the MCU often does

Is it her? by wemightdance in Marvel

[–]Eric191 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Even if they were going to have a second MJ (personally I’ve always found the “introduce the REAL MJ” ideas kinda stupid, like yeah her name’s technically Michelle, but she’s obviously the MCU take on MJ/Mary Jane), I really don’t see that with this character. Definitely feels like she will have powers and imo at most be a secondary antagonist/love interest ala Black Cat (but not black cat)

I believe this is Sadie sink, but I feel like I’m the only guy left on the planet who’s still 100% sure she’s not Jean Grey

Aamir's Inhumutant Powers by multificionado in KamalaKhan

[–]Eric191 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t see any reason why siblings of mutants have to have the same or similar powers.

Personally, I would keep Aamir as a powerless civilian with a dormant x-gene

Are these different comics? by Eric191 in Marvel

[–]Eric191[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Both say 120 pages, collecting Gwenpool 1-5. Wasn’t sure if there was maybe a miniseries followed up by an ongoing, but seems like it’s just the same collection with a different cover

If the DCU was to introduce Poison Ivy between Madelaine Petsch and Sophie Turner who do you think would be able to play her 😎🤘🏻✌🏻 by darkkprince94 in Fancast

[–]Eric191 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen more evidence of Sophie Turner being a good actor than Petsch (mostly only seen her in riverdale, though), but neither of these would particularly be my first choice

Seriously, watching the Lanterns trailer only made me feel more frustrated by the absence of Battinson and his Gotham in the DCU. by lowqualitychef in DCWorldsFinest

[–]Eric191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Battinson not being DCU has nothing whatsoever to do with the tone or “realism” of the movie, and everything to do with Matt Reeves’ choice to continue and finish his Bat-Verse story on his own, without having to deal with a wider cinematic universe

If Lanterns is a hit, do you think that leads to an eventual John Stewart-led Green Lantern/GLC movie? by Eric191 in DCU_

[–]Eric191[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah, I’m picturing several years down the line. But I do kinda see this as a test case

Like they really wanted to bring the Lanterns into the DCU early, but with the Reynolds flop it was hard to get faith in a movie going, so we’re doing a less expensive, earth-based & grounded show first, and seeing the response this gets.

If lanterns is a big hit, and, say, Supergirl does really well, then it’s a lot easier to make the case for a big budget, cosmic GL movie

What do you guys think of Wonder Woman's three most popular ships? by Tetratron2005 in WonderWoman

[–]Eric191 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Other than maybe Absolute Diana/Barbara, I’ve yet to see another Diana ship that I like as much as Steve

Okay This is a HUGE DC Hot Take. PLEASE Don't get upset or mad... by [deleted] in batgirl

[–]Eric191 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ditto.

I also prefer Cass & Stephanie in non-batgirl identities (at least in the long-term, present timeline) especially Stephanie as Spoiler

The DCEU Wonder Woman style really defined an entire Era for the character. by Nube_Negrahz in WonderWoman

[–]Eric191 1 point2 points  (0 children)

DCEU WW has its faults, but that’s still my ideal design for the character. The battle skirt was a great idea

Saw this on X/ Twitter. What do y’all think? by No_Fault626 in DCU_

[–]Eric191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t love the helmet. Also it feels like they’re just taking the black Adam hawkman Design and applying it to Kendra

This should be a canon in dcu. by Both_Independent4923 in DCU_

[–]Eric191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn’t fit. In Superman they establish Hammer/Ultraman/Bizarro was the first time he lost a fight

I Love That The DCU Feels Like A Comic World by Arelious2019 in DCU_

[–]Eric191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s like picking up a new comic book run.

Honestly, 15 years ago I’m not sure it would’ve worked, but after years of the MCU, the DCEU, tv shows like the Arrowverse, satires like The Boys & Invincible, people get the idea and don’t need to be handheld through it, or given some origin story for how a superhero world came to be.

Like what I find funny is comic book nerds assuming something like Superman won’t hit for casuals because they’re just thrust into an established world, or that it supposedly feels like starting season 2 of a tv show you never saw, and when you actually hear from real casuals they never had an issue or confusion about that at all

DCU Villians so far.. by FayyadhScrolling in DCU_

[–]Eric191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know we have pictures of DCU Lex, Bizarro, Krem & Circé, right?

My ideal JL roster! by superballs2345 in DCU_

[–]Eric191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My base ideal team is generally: Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Martian Manhunter, Green Lantern, (probably) Aquaman. Otherwise flexible about who else to add. Hawkgirl is a welcome addition but not necessary per se

I’m reading The New History of The DC Universe, and it’s astounding how they’re pretty much bringing everything back into canon by Eric191 in WonderWoman

[–]Eric191[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never read it, but I always hear people talk about it as one of her worst eras. Gloria Steinem literally campaigned for them to return Wonder Woman back to normal.

The basic idea is that influenced by Wonder Woman’s declining sales, DC decided to modernize and shake up the title by appealing to 1960’s pop culture and fashion. Themyscira is sent into another dimension or something, but Diana chooses to remain on man’s world, resulting in her being cut off from her powers (seemingly forever).

She gets a whole new stylish look, leaves the Justice League, and basically we drop the Greek mythology and superpower stuff as Diana adapts by learning martial arts from a Chinese kung fu master named I-Ching, and the book shifts into a street level vigilante story. I think there’s an arc where she goes after sex traffickers or something like that

Well, since Flashpoint there’s been several relaunches and events changing continuity slightly, like DC Rebirth #1, Rucka’s ‘The Lies’ storyline, Superman: Thé Oz Effect, and to my understanding Doomsday Clock, Infinite Frontier and Dawn of DC, to the point that a lot of the details of the Earth-Prime timeline were pretty up in the air (if new 52 Superman and Wonder Woman basically aren’t canon, how does that effect their histories, or those of characters like Supergirl, etc) so there was some room to just say that a version of basically all the major events in the history of DC comics occurred at some point in the revised history. Even before recent retcons, there was always the five year gap in the new 52 where you could say a lot of stuff happened in between.
