In The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Rachel Brosnahan looked so much like the Silver Age Lois Lane that it makes me wish Superman (2025) was a time period movie set in 1960s.

Opinion: I don't think Doomsday or the Death of Superman story should be adapted anymore Spoiler

82 Upvotes

I've seen this idea floating around in discussions involving the DCU that, at some point, Doomsday or the Death of Superman should be adapted. Personally, I don't want them to adapt it at all and I'm not sure why other fans want it so bad either.

I understand how iconic the Death of Superman storyline is and why it was such a big deal at the time. But it's one of the most overadapted and played out storylines in superhero history. It's been done across Superman projects 8 times now. Even if some of those haven't been direct adaptations, they either still kill him off or reference DoSM somehow and I don't think it's as impactful as it used to be anymore.

There's a lot of Superman stories that haven't been adapted to the big screen yet and I'd prefer to see any of those get adapted instead. I'm itching for a Godfall adaptation or any storyline from the New 52 or even the Dan Jurgens story where [SPOILERS] Jor-El was revealed to be alive as Mr Oz. Hell, that one could prove to be very interesting with the direction that James Gunn took with Jor-El in Superman 2025.

Well, it seems DC really push the entanglement between these two[Darkseid vs. The World] Spoiler

So it seems DC really try to make Darkseid an archenemy for Superman?

Superman always will be the one who opposes Darkseid. Darkseid is Omega, and Superman is the Alpha(also, again, confirming Superman can't be permanently destroyed). Superman not just Darkseid's enemy, but also his opposite

Also in this issue, it explained that Pandora was resurrected by Darkseid after she was atomized by Dr.Manhattan

  1. Bizarro and Black
  2. Orion and Hearts (I consider New Gods a Spin-off of Superman)
  3. Mxy and Xeno
  4. Launch and Livewire
  5. Mister Satan and Steve Lombard
  6. Moro and Solaris
  7. 7-3 and Parasite
  8. Brainiac 5 and Future Trunks
  9. Freeza and Mongul

The only one I drew with powerscaling in mind is 7-3 and Parasite, all others are paired based on narrative or character parallels

How do you feel about the DCU using Kara's Silver Age origin instead of her Post-Crisis origin?

Thumbnail

55 Upvotes

Honestly, not a fan. I'm used to Kara being older than Clark, but becoming younger because of reasons (time dilation, stasis in her pod, or stuck in the Phantom Zone), as that is how it is in every other iteration.

Even Woman of Tomorrow, which the movie is loosely based on, has her older than Clark.

It just adds more to her character. Her baby cousin who she was supposed to take care of, grew up and is now older than her; being raised by people who most likely did a better job than she probably would have.

It's my biggest issue with the DCU version of Supergirl.

Hell, even Barry Allen had an origin change after Crisis. Pre-Crisis, both his parents were alive and well. Post-Crisis, his mother was killed by the Reverse Flash and his father was framed for it; and that origin stuck. It's now just integral to his character, just like Kara's Post-Crisis origin.

The Post-Crisis origin gives her an interesting dynamic with her once-younger-now-older cousin, who she used to babysit and take care of when he was an infant. She lived on Krypton while he only heard stories of it from the Fortress archives. However accurate those archives are about Krypton, they feel impersonal. When Clark meets her, he finds someone who lived there and tells him stories about his home planet; someone who makes it feel real.

With her being younger than him in this universe and only growing up on a chunk of Krypton, they lose that fun dynamic; with him just being her older cousin, full stop. And even she doesn't know Krypton fully, just hearing stories about it from the other Kryptonians around her.

Well, these were my thoughts. Feel free to tell me yours.

Disliked traits

137 Upvotes

So I’m going to ask as many superhero fanbases as I can this question. What are some traits about this hero that you hate, dislike or despise? Anywhere from a mild annoyance to a trait that would make you dislike any other character. I’m not talking about a way one writer in particular wrote them, or a time they were out of character or mishandled, I mean a reoccurring trait this character has.
