@Matheus48854143@Nacao_DC@TheWrap This would be grim. Where is Booster Gold? Swamp Thing? Can we get literally anything other than the same six characters over and over again?
@ComicsMeta I rewatched Creature Commandos with my girlfriend the other day and this lined up perfectly with the Gotham and Clayface shown in that. I'm glad they held off on Batman because it would have just been a complete redo on Dr. Phosphorus's arc.
@higai19@BoyWithTheThorn The Avengers weren't main characters in the comics until Brian Michael Bendis took over in 2004. Until then they were a team of characters that couldn't carry their own book. The MCU started with the spin-offs and were given time and good will, something Gunn was not.
@cybxrartist Avengers was the team book for heroes that couldn't support their own book up until the 2000s. This revision of history is so aggravating.
@GreenInGotham "probably just not focusing on more niche characters anymore" my brother that is The Doom. I would have been happy to have never gotten another Batman film ever if it meant getting a Booster Gold show.
I genuinely don't understand how these companies expect people to care about their properties when they keep getting rid of the guy in charge just as its getting off the ground. What's more is Gunn clearly had a plan to make smaller names into bigger names and now we're most likely going to go back to Batman for the 57th time. There's no reason to get excited about anything because one film doesn't do well enough so now the whole thing has to start over.
@FinalLychee I genuinely couldn't keep watching the video because I was just getting more angry. Even the first one was massive. One of the most vivid memories I have is getting the sword and whacking it against everything just to see what kind of noise I would get. It blew my mind as a kid.
@FoxLayng@SmtgAbout@Variety Occasionally you get something like Batman: The Brave and the Bold which used Batman to show off the rest of the DC. Otherwise, there's a whole universe of characters who aren't able to shine because of corporate greed and mismanagement. It's sad.
@Rebel0fReality Thats the exact opposite of that Safran said a bit ago. He said that they were given more resources post-merger.
