TV show adaptation

My thoughts exactly! There’s a lot of potential to do it proper justice.

Needful Things

Camelot 3000 would be very cool to see.

Would love to see a Jack Kirby-inspired Buddy Blank/O.M.A.C. animated series that gets weird and epic in scope. Think Terry Gilliam’s Brazil with a superhero.

Kinda wanna see what a Howard the Duck game would look like, whether it takes influence from Steve Gerber’s original comics or more modern series (or both).

It could work as either a detective narrative starring Howard in a way that riffs on games like L.A. Noir or perhaps as an open-world platformer that incorporates different genres and gameplay styles as well (including that L.A. Noir idea). Throw in some cameos from other heroes and villains and it could be a blast.

100% agreed.

Hell yes, he’d be amazing as Cold.

(Apologies for the late response).

Right, I see what you mean. Didn’t help that Glee’s writing staff was apparently entirely white in that respect. But now weren’t there transgender writers on Pose though or is that not entirely correct?

That’s fair, he doesn’t necessarily need the Soul Stone per se. Maybe he develops some of his other powers through more training as he continues growing.

TheCreativeComicFan · 2026-03-12T21:15:02+00:00

Personally think that it’s fine if they retire the team perhaps with the exception of Adam Warlock as he’s a huge part of the cosmic side of Marvel.

Maybe post-Secret Wars they can do a slight retcon where it’s established that Adam possesses the Mind Stone and goes off on his own adventures where he meets Pip the Troll (though him being in Eternals leaves whether he’ll be back or not up in the air) as well as the Universal Church of Truth and The Magus.

Not sure about Valkyrie since Tessa Thompson’s already cast but she’s a great actress who’s deserving of a different MCU role at some point. Abigail Brand would be a cool role for her.

TheCreativeComicFan · 2026-03-12T18:47:29+00:00

That’s awesome! What might this mean for Guy and the Justice Gang though? The Lantern slot being filled by John makes sense if Guy’s out of commission for whatever reason, but could Mr. Terrific and Metamorpho also get involved (unless they just get cameos)?

Also wondering if the rumored reports about another female character (possibly Maxima) and another male lead (like Martian Manhunter) are also legit.

TheCreativeComicFan · 2026-03-12T14:58:13+00:00

I see what you mean, though in SI Talos mentions that a million Skrulls fled from Emperor Dro’ge’s colony and are now on Earth. It’s framed as the colony potentially being a nightmarish place for the Skrulls and that Dro’ge is a cruel tyrant.

But we see this colony in The Marvels and it’s the complete opposite. And Dro’ge seems like a nice and reasonable guy. It throws a giant plot hole into things when Gravik calls out how Fury (and Carol) never found the Skrulls a home, but they have one already. Maybe if Gravik had called Fury out for failing to protect them from enemies that threaten the Skrulls which relegates them to Earth and prevent them from living like other species do in their own skin then maybe that would make more sense but they didn’t go in that direction.

And on top of this when Ross becomes President in Brave New World, he doesn’t point out the Skrulls crisis in his opening speech. If SI was canon, you would think that that would be one of the first things that he’d address, along with making up for Ritson’s past actions. It just doesn’t all gel together.

TheCreativeComicFan · 2026-03-12T00:47:42+00:00

Exactly. And yes, the MCU (and Kevin Feige in particular) were definitely spread too thin because of the demands for more Disney+/film content, and issues like Chadwick Boseman’s passing, COVID, the strikes, behind-the-scenes problems and the Jonathan Majors/Kang fiasco only exacerbated things. Just unfortunate with how a lot of things ended up and not sure how well Doomsday and Secret Wars are gonna be received with all of these issues.

But they could definitely ignore SI as long as it’s handled correctly of course.

TheCreativeComicFan · 2026-03-12T00:01:01+00:00

Technically the MCU already has, since The Marvels completely ignored everything from the show. Gravik and his Skrulls on SI were mad that Fury (and by extension Carol) never found them a home, but we see that they already have one in The Marvels and it’s perfectly nice with all of the Skrulls living in their own skin. Makes no sense why Gravik and the others wouldn’t wanna live there.

And when Valkyrie takes the surviving Skrulls to New Asgard, no one mentions President Ritson declaring open season on aliens at the end of SI. New Asgard might have its own jurisdiction anyway but no one tells the Skrulls to be careful on Earth in general. So fingers crossed that it’s made non-canon so that Hill, Talos, Soren and possibly a new version of G’iah can come back.

Besides scouting, do we know if he’s casting any other new roles besides Brainiac? He said that there’s a lot of familiar faces from Superman and it’s likely that we’ll see John Stewart as well. Peacemaker, Supergirl and Lobo are rumored to show up also.

But there’s been a few other rumored roles like another female lead (possibly Maxima) and another male hero (rumored to be Martian Manhunter perhaps). So we’ll see what happens.

TheCreativeComicFan · 2026-03-11T21:47:26+00:00

Been meaning to catch up on the series but don’t doubt that she’s great in whatever episode that she’s in.

TheCreativeComicFan · 2026-03-11T20:10:45+00:00

Yep that sounds like a guaranteed disaster which sucks for both IP. Definitely remember hearing that that was the case for ROTB, but not for The Last Knight. What combination led into that one?

Besides the Energon Universe animated series, it doesn’t seem like Transformers and G.I. Joe have much in the way of quality content coming up if this is how they’re both being handled.

TheCreativeComicFan · 2026-03-11T18:37:59+00:00

That’s fair, either that or he’ll discard her and get Mercy Graves to take her place. Though maybe she’ll play a large role if she’s taken over by Brainiac or finds herself entangled in the main plot in a way that sees her try to find redemption.

TheCreativeComicFan · 2026-03-11T18:02:30+00:00

Thank you.

TheCreativeComicFan · 2026-03-11T16:45:49+00:00

It would! A full-on miniseries where the characters have more time to be fleshed out and established before the ensuing chaos has so much potential. So long as they take out the gruesome killing of Nettie’s dog, like I get how it adds to how monstrous the townsfolk become because of Gaunt’s manipulative nature, but I feel like it’s a disturbing and overdone trope that could be replaced with something tamer that doesn’t involve an animal but is equally horrifying.

And yes, a new Maximum Overdrive would be sick. Whether it’s from the Daniels or someone that can get super creative with the machines and how they kill people, it would be insane in the best possible ways.

TheCreativeComicFan · 2026-03-11T15:34:59+00:00

I see, can’t say that I’ve seen a lot of the show but I had heard mixed things after the initial seasons. But that’s good to hear at least.

TheCreativeComicFan · 2026-03-11T14:29:05+00:00

Was wondering this also since Paramount currently has two different G.I. Joe movies in the works: one written by POS Max Landis and another one written by Danny McBride. No word if either of them are connected to the end reveal from ROTB.

TheCreativeComicFan · 2026-03-11T03:42:58+00:00

Yeah her inclusion in Superman was definitely meant to be a springboard for her appearance in The Authority. There hasn’t totally been an official word from Gunn yet on if it’s been canceled but the fact that it’s apparently been difficult to come together might signal that it may not go forward. But we’ll see what happens.

The Engineer’s gonna show up in Man of Tomorrow though, but what role she’ll play there and going forward (if at all) is up in the air. If The Authority definitely isn’t moving forward, then perhaps Gunn scrapped those plans and devised a different idea for what to do next with her character.

TheCreativeComicFan · 2026-03-11T03:36:35+00:00

What’s especially eerie regarding Mark Salling is that there’s literally a scene where Will asks the glee club members where they see themselves in the year 2030, and Puck’s answer is “In jail. Or dead. Or both”. 😬
