The Unholy Dragon 776 Posted July 16, 2013 Well, seeing as their version of that arc probably won't be terrible, it's safe to call it an original story. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tigertooth 119 Posted July 16, 2013 It's a shame with the A++ material that Marvel has, that they can't do something good that can sustain. SSM and A:EMH are both fairly fantastic. USM is bollocks and really AVASS really blows too so far. To my mind, even SSH and A:EMH are well off the mark of the best DCAU stuff. The best Marvel seems to be able to do is "decent". 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eivion 2,456 Posted July 17, 2013 Does anyone in this forum like USM at all? I'm not feeling good about Hulk and agents of S.M.A.S.H. either.I enjoy it though I wouldn't exactly call it good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MikeRose 23 Posted July 17, 2013 I would put SSM somewhere below YJ....maybe on a par with Superman TAS..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt D 10,441 Posted July 17, 2013 Marvel had SSM, Wolverine and the X-Men, and EMH, the three best animated shows they ever had, by far (as in nothing's even close save for the last few seasons of X-Men: Evolution), and they all died horribly premature deaths. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Natural 22,301 Posted July 17, 2013 Does anyone in this forum like USM at all? I don't. To my mind, even SSH and A:EMH are well off the mark of the best DCAU stuff. The best Marvel seems to be able to do is "decent". The only DCAU TV series I'd rate above Spectacular Spider-Man and Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes is Batman: The Animated Series. SSM I have second and A: EMH in third place. Can't go wrong with either! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Playa Shunna Ver 3.0 3,845 Posted July 17, 2013 So Professor Pyg is obviously a guy in a mask. What is up with Mr. Toad. Is he supposed to be an actual toad? I looked at the comics character and he looked very similar. I tried googleing, but there isnt much info on the dude. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cool to see Professor Pyg make his animated debut, one of the creepiest new Batman villains. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MikeRose 23 Posted July 17, 2013 Natural. I'm not the boss of this forum, but I hate hate hate listmania. Please, lets just say that they are good, but truthfully, I prefer JLA, JLU Batman Beyond(Of the future) and YJ to SSM and A:EMH as well, but it's very close. They are all great cartoon shows.

RandomAct 2,003 Posted July 17, 2013 So Flashpoint leaked already, and it's pretty dang good, if you ask me. I won't say much more until it's actually released. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brian Fowler 13,012 Posted July 18, 2013 Does it involve Barry Allen repeatedly failing at every goal he tries to achieve in the course of the film? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
APO 269 Posted July 18, 2013 Marvel had SSM, Wolverine and the X-Men, and EMH, the three best animated shows they ever had, by far (as in nothing's even close save for the last few seasons of X-Men: Evolution), and they all died horribly premature deaths.It may be a bit of personal bias against Wolverine, but I hated the fuck out of Wolverine and the X-Men. I tried to give it a chance, but the failure to flip Scott and Logan's roles by making Cyclops into a complete and utter moron just killed any interest I had in it. I did like the Nightcrawler/Scarlet Witch bits and the Polaris bits from the Xavier storyline, but those were woefully few and far between. Doing AoA in the second season would've been interesting, but the writing would've needed a major overhaul, IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt D 10,441 Posted July 18, 2013 I loved the Cyclops/Wolverine inversion. They made Wolverine tolerable by having to make him responsible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mco543 1,381 Posted July 18, 2013 I loved Wolverine and the X-Men. They did such a great job with the Day's of Future Past storyline and capturing the utter despair and hopelessness of it. It also helps that I've hated Cyclops since I was a kid. I don't think I liked it as much as the original X-Men: The Animated Series but that's my favorite comic book cartoon.

Brian Fowler 13,012 Posted July 19, 2013 I'm always faintly surprised when someone says they like Cyclops. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt D 10,441 Posted July 19, 2013 He's the most interesting character at Marvel right now. But yeah, I always liked Cyclops. I hated Wolverine as a kid. Now I appreciate him more so long as he's not being written by Mark Millar or someone. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eivion 2,456 Posted July 19, 2013 Never liked Cyclops in the 90's show. I have better appreciation of him now that I have through a decent amount of Claremont's run though his current status in Marvel, and X-fans blind love for him actually turns me off of his character again.

Johnny Sorrow 2,087 Posted July 19, 2013 I liked Cyclops and Wolverine. Granted, I was growing up reading both the 60's X-Men books and the Claremont/ Byrne stuff. I liked every character, they were all cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MORELOCK 2,518 Posted July 19, 2013 Cyclops was always my favorite character and the direction they went with him in AvX was a huge part of my reason to stop reading Marvel books. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Natural 22,301 Posted July 20, 2013 New DC Animated Universe films annouced at San Diego Comic-Con 2013: After an overwhemingly positive response to the premiere screening of Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox, Warner Bros went on to announce the 2014 lineup of animated films. The first being Justice League: War based off of Geoff Johns' New 52 Justice League comic. The second and third films are called Batman: Assault On Arkham and Son Of Batman. We don't yet know (for sure) what these films are based on, so we're hoping for clarification from the panel soon. According to users at Toonzone forums, Assault On Arkham is based within Rocksteady's video game franchise, while Son Of Batman is based upon Grant Morrison's famous introductory story for Damian Wayne. Credit: comicbookmovie.com Very happy with the three, more so Batman: Assault On Arkham and Son of Batman. With Damian Wayne getting a film, hopefully that means we'll be getting Batman and Robin as an animated film with Dick Grayson as Batman and Damian Wayne as Robin.
