What are some of the most drastically different adaptations of /co/ characters?Deathstroke in Lois & Clark is just some assassin that kills people by giving them heart attacks with his magnetism powers, and he looks like this.
>>144664377baymax
>Donald Blake summons Thor instead of being an alter ego
Dr. Magneto from 60s Spider-Man.
>>144664377>Deathstroke>Literally gives people deathly strokesDid the only thing the writers had for reference was the name alone or what?
>>144664377kek
>>144664377>Deathstroke in Lois & Clark is just some assassin that kills people by giving them heart attacks with his magnetism powerswut
>>144664516this is better and makes more sense than the original comic.
>>144664377How the fuck do you get that from Deathstroke
>>144664621He gives them a deathly stroke anon it's not hard.
>>144664377top fucking kek what
The MAWS version of Brainiac is like some fucked up robot Zod instead of the real Brainiac.>No skull ship>Kandor instead of being a Kryptonian city is some kill sat spaceship he sits around in>Doesn't bottle cities at all>Zero connection to Colu, he's a Kryptonian AI instead>Doesn't really give a shit about knowledge, is more one of those might is right villains>Basically the embodiment of Kryptonian imperialism, wants to rebuild the Kryptonian Empire with ClarkAnd somehow that makes him one of the best adaptations of Zod because Zod is fucking lame and Michael Emerson is 10/10 as him.
>>144664646corruption kino
>>144664646>Zero connection to Colu, he's a Kryptonian AI insteadI don't watch this series, but it seems like they are inspired by the old Superman series.
>>144664695It's bizarre how they copied number 18 of Dragon Ball for this character instead of being faithful to how it was in the comic.
>>144664646was gonna say that this is actually a pretty cool version of Braniac despite the changes, I wish the kept the colour scheme since I like they made him more inhuman since like alien/robot characters to lean further from looking human but aside from the logo the colours make it harder to see his design as Braniac
>>144664646Why not just make him Zod? I don't get it. It's like you're ruining two awesome villains at once with this crap
>>144664377He gives them DEATH by STROKE, get it?
>>144664377For me, it's the John McCain Deathstroke from Smallville.
>>144664802Laziness and can't have TWO masculine men in the cast. That would be scary to the afeared females and homosexuals. When in reality women and queers, yes this includes lesbians, shlick themselves raw too men fighting. Espescially over women.
remember when USM brought in scorpion and literally just made him a reference to scorpion from mortal kombat?
>>144664722Supergirl's never really had a consistent character. For 15 years she wasn't even a Kryptonian, then when she came back she was a slutty alien until blowback to it made her more wholesome and sweet, then rebooted in New 52 to being more alien again, to a girlboss in rebirth to lineup with the live action show.In the silver/bronze age she went from a teen girl Superman stuck in an orphanage to a girl with adopted parents to a college aged woman.
>>144664377Cassandra Cain in the Birds of Prey movie, who's just a pickpocket street urchin with no martial arts skills who becomes Harley Quinn's sidekick at the end (also she's fat)
>>144664557>>144664627>>144664876A stroke and a heart attack aren't the same fucking thing!
>>144665021That shit is still so bizarre.
>>144664646This is just a lamer version of DCAU Brainiac. He was drastically different and an AI, yes, but still retained the motivations of hoarding knowledge
This is such a drastic shift from comic Polka-Dot Man, but thematically appropriate and great. In fact I'd go so far as to say this should be comic canon now
>>144665038I guarantee that they were going to have him give people strokes and then they thought "no wait, that's too on the nose, make it heart attacks instead"
>>144664646>spoilerThem's fightin words.
>ok now what if he was a mad scientist obsessed with making moth monsters and making himself half moth that had a spoiled rich daughter that he loves a lot
Remember when they made Black Spider literally assassin Spider-Man?
>>144665142To be fair he was a moth monster at the time in the comics at least.
>>144664377A character named Kraglin appeared in one Silver Age Ant-Man story and shares his name with Kraglin from the Guardians of the Galaxy movies. I'm not sure if they got the name from the comic or it's just a coincidence but Marvel apparently considers him the comic version.
>>144665038they're both ischemic events, be nice
There was David Cross becoming a villainous version inspired by one of Hank Pym's more unstable identities, Yellowjacket. Actually became comic canon now after David Cross found one of Hank's stashes and stole a prototype suit (the new Crossfire is his brother).I think it works
>>144664377>>144664893I think it's just kind of a problem with Slade in adaptations.In the 2003 cartoon he's basically nothing like the comic version barring appearance and name, and in My Adventures with Superman he's in Warframe armor as a twink fighting fucking Superman.
>>144665142Although you have to admit, he's a way more threatening villian AND more interesting character than the comic version ever was
>>144665285Darren CrossDavid Cross is the other guy
>Robin
>>144665386Right, brainfart, thank you
>>144665186is it weird to say that usm had the best looks out of any spidey cartoon?
>>144664893
>>144665142DC Super Hero Girls went even further and had a version of Killer Moth that was just an actual giant moth. Which, like >>144665216 points out isn't that distant from actual canon. But HERE'S the kicker...they refer to it as "she"
>>144664722Outside of having one of her outfits she really doesn't act like 18.
>>144664646It was a wild ride though. They kept showing him and having him say shit like "He shall kneel." I was convinced that it was Zod in battle armor until they call him Brainiac.
>>144664802Probably a case of them only wanting one Kryptonian villain for their story. And since Eradicator's a mostly unknown villain they just used Brainiac due to STAS showing that most won't mind getting rid of Colu.Zod not being used is probably down to them thinking he's overused.
>>144665285>David Cross>YellowjacketIt's like you haven't even seen the live action Alvin and the Chipmunks movies.For shame!
>>144665548You know what? I'll not only own up to my fuckup, but hilariously I want to imagine a cut of Ant-Man with David playing Darren
>>144665516Yes, but she has practically the same Background and the same arc.
>>144665087true
>>144664377This is what the Brood look like in the 90's X-men cartoon.
>>144664627It's not hard *yet*.
>>144664377CW is cheating, but>Count Vertigo>not nobility of any kind>no superpowers>literally just a drug dealer trying too hard to be Joker (by the way not just an insult, it's the actor's admission that he took inspiration from Ledger's Joker)>same goes for his replacement
>>144665456honestly i had to look it up
>>144664377>What are some of the most drastically different adaptations of /co/ characters?everything picrelated
>>144665615This is absolutely not supposed to be The Brood. Go rewatch the episode.
>>144665588Not really.Even at her most villainous 18 isn't some loyal brainwashed minion like Kara was.
>>144665729Polka-Dot Man and Bloodsport were improvements
>>144664516>>144664613In original comics "Thor" was a Shazamite version of Don Blake, that's why his hair is blond and he is beardless
>>144665314Which is weird considering how popular he was in the comics.
>>144665826Huh, fascinating. I always thought his design was just based on the 1872 painting, Thor's Fight with the Giants by Mårten Eskil Winge.
>>144665556>>144665548If David cross was Darren Cross well he'd never lose for one and he'd be shitting on Hank Pym's particles that absolutely no one would want to use and him trying to bring him singing ants to nervous to sing. Yellowjacket would just be the manifestation of what he wanted to do while filming Chipwrecked
>>144665740>Changed the name and appearance>Still use the acanti as ships>reproduce exactly like the brood>multiple sources reference them as as intended to be the BroodThe only reason they weren't called the Brood or looked like them apparently is because they already briefly used the actual brood in another episode. http://www.marvunapp.com/Appendix9/colony92131.htm
>>144665402LOL
>>144664377
>>144666184IIRC she's an attempt to adapt the Dennis O'Neil's powerless WW, so not that drastically different from what she's supposed to represent.
>>144665386Ah, Darren, aka "modok"
>>144666255What were they thinking?
>>144666334>MODOK SUCKS AND YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO LIKE HIM OR WANT HIM TO BE COOLBasically
>>144666343He's already a goof in various adaptations, but his face isn't done like that.
>>144666358I'm pretty much paraphrasing Loveness tbqh>Loveness: (laughs) Uh… if I say yes, I promise you he will be even stupider. I refuse to listen to the fans on this. I will not make MODOK serious. As long as I’m alive, they’re not gonna get that serious adaptation that those four fans want. He’ll be a big dumb head. That’s all.
>>144664377Fucking WHAT
>>144665021Honestly they should have just made it Steph or something. It's not like anyone would really miss her father as a character.
>>144665087>still retained the motivations of hoarding knowledge>>144664646>Doesn't really give a shit about knowledge....sigh...actual original and classic Brainiac was never about "knowledge"Initially he was just alien who wanted to collect all these cities to repopulated his own world of >Coluor Bryakthen motivation changed and (picrel on the left while he still have pants and still isn't robot) it was him becoming a ruler "once again", then at some point in Silver Age they made him secretly a robot, but secretly because if Superman knew he is robot he would rape him immedietally since his no-kill rule doesn't extend on filthy AInners (or in case he has no super powers or needs to safe friends or if it is too powerful Parasite or Metallo brothers or Greer who almost BvSed his friend Jimmy) and he was just a reoccuring villain attempt to take revenge on Superman but just like Lex Luthor in non-Death imaginary story he was also real relaxed about it, otherwise Superman would be dead for real (as original The Death of Superman clearly shows it).Then at some point after countless defeats and being self-shrunk into an oblivion he had his "somehow Palpatine has returned" moment and was Really https://x.com/i/status/1811900768225468915 towards Kal-El "knowledge" is STAS/DCAU version where he collects it then blows up planetSTAS/DCAU also made him >Zero connection to Colu, he's a Kryptonian AI insteadMAWS in the first place is SnyderVerse for "people" with negative testosterone levels, that's why Brainiac is BvS Steppenwolf (even with red dots on his forehead just like https://youtu.be/4zjXCn95kRs?t=154 ) with some of SnyderVerse Zod's motivation, SnyderVerse Darkseid brainwashing (inspired by STAS). With twink Lex, afro Perry White. Encapsulated by Kryptonian suit with homemade red trunks.
>>144665776>it is okay if I am a fucking touristNot really sweetie. As much of an "improvement" as McCain Deathstroke or guy in OP.>>144665836Maybe it was. Partly inspired And also shortly later on they (Lee+Kirby, unless they had some ghosts/assistants too like Golden Age OGs) retconned him as being indeed THE real deal>>144666358>>144666373Modok done right is borderline a body horror with giant face stretched or shriveled over giant thing and with white eyes. It looks silly only because it is comic books drawing and comics colored, same way Superman's "blue" in (original and classic) comics isn't as bright as many people think it is "supposed" to be.If you compare it with nearby objects that you Also can find in real life (or in colored photos of 40-80s period in USA)
>>144665863>David Cross >Darren Cross>>144666255>>144665285It really is bizzare how Stoll's face CGied to be shortened really looks like this >>144665548 knee-Gah! Imagine being born into real life and then find ot that you'd look like a chad if only your face was somehow longer, but also proportional so you'd wouldn't become TDKR Alfred.
>>144665285Was thinking about him, he actually works because the OG Darren Cross from the comics was weird and kinda lame Red Hulk before Rulk was a thing so the rework is an improvement
>>144665556It happens, anon. I mixed up Tim Allen with Woody Allen once in a Toy Story thread years ago.
That time Arcade was a gamer classmate of Kitty Pryde who Mystique tricked into thinking the Danger Room was an elaborate video game.
>>144665511>DC Super Hero Girls went even further and had a version of Killer Moth that was just an actual giant moth.
>>144666255>>144666343He coule have been be both goofy comedic and menacing if they tried hard enough
>>144666934He could be, but see >>144666373Loveness had zero interest in that because these faggot writers are driven by contempt for stories and characters they're adapting.
>>144666975Why not just use characters you have interest in then?
>>144667018Being miserable spiteful faggots, I assume.
>>144665314nah, he's still a groomer with a thing for abusing kids and picking cheap fights and waiting for the perfect time to strike. Sure, he's more a terrorist than an assassin but they at least know to keep to the bits that made him a piece of shit even if the background shit like him being a super soldier assassin is kinda nebulous. The thing is they just shoved him into an evil mastermind role instead of being a manipulator who arranges things.
>>144665021If ever there was a fandom who got the live action adaptation they deserved to get.
>>144667340imagine seething at a character who only just now even was getting use in comics or adaptions lmao
>>144666373that is the faggiest cunt attitude to have when adapting a long running series or using a character who has endured since before his grand parents were shunted in a home, like even the square enix game tried to adapt the character properly into an effective villain.
>>144665229Itd weird as I thought kraglin was created for the film instead finding out he technically was in the comics before the film
>>144664377I feel like he is kind of handsome in a silver age kind of way.
>>144666662incrediblewe've fallen so far
Don't get why they never stick with the cloth mask for Slade in adaptations. Pic related's pretty popular.
>>144668413Pic related was pretty much perfect. Too bad it wasn't Slade.
>>144664942>In the silver/bronze age she went from a teen girl Superman to a college aged woman. Yeah? SA SGirl got older, doesn’t mean she’s ‘inconsistent’. What’s your point?Her New 52 to rebirth changes are far more damning.
>>144666200Never mind that costume and she's blond now.>>144666447I can see the comparison although the dot triangle has been emblematic of brainiac since they added the hairnet thingy to the original. Skelly version is the only one that didn't use it. Steppenwolf seems to only have a single bindi mark.
>>144665314Don't forget his Beware the Batman adaptation that's kinda just Alfred's apprentice who's jealous of Bruce Wayne and wants to kill him while also being a former CIA agent who pretends to be some guy called Dane Wisslow.
>>144668472Oh, so now you admit it looks good.>when in 2014 CWfags tried to tell me Slade's hockey mask didn't look like shit and this mask didn't look much better
>>144669525I've always thought it was cool, and thought the paintball mask was lame.
>>144669536I never understood why /co/ liked Slade's look so much, I thought it was awful.
>>144667916Dawg this design fucks.
>>144666505Polka dot man fucking sucks. Bloodsport was pretty bland in the comics. They really just made him an improved Snyderverse Deadshot
>>144669463>dot triangle has been emblematic of brainiac sinceDCAU.... and until DCAU.I know ,sweetie, sometimes I get shell-shocked as well from the objective facts , but it is true that "iconic" 3 dots were only ever used in KRYPTONIAN Brainiac which debuted at STAS Episode #1 Which is why in Man of Steel black zero ship has those dots since it is "kryptonian" too, which is why in new52 Morrison Superman there is Brainiac back on Krypton, which also sets ups looney trooney moment of WHO came up with then NAME "Brainiac" first. But then Morrison's new52 most probably ended earlier than expected, there was definitely another question WHERE "S" reall came from, becase unlike all past Birthright origins Jor-El nor entire fucking Krypton (Birthright) doesn't wear it, it is "my father's cape", but then Who was his father? Was it original Kal-El or Kal-L? Was it Jonathan Kent (in context of comics That style of Diamond shaped S with straight lines was retconed in 60s and remained DEFINITIVE version even for 1986 reboot that it was logo designed by Jonathan Kent, Morrison with his/him (at that time) brain of researcher and mix-masher definitely knew that and per him/his (at that time) canon Jor-El's symbol is "planet" on his chest ie "science guild symbol". But anyways.Tri dot design Is DCAU and ONLY DCAU (except when it is particular Morrison's new52 run or Convergence ofc)
>>144669746>improvedJames Gunn's : Gamora and Nebula - daughters of horrible blood father and foster father Peter Quill - son of horrible blood father mass murderer and horrible foster father kidnapper of kids and allegedly/retconable cannibal and just overall scumbag in the gang of scumbags Peter clearly is alive due to unreasonable semi-nepotism and luck and probably superpowersMantis - all aboveGroot - who knows, probably son of Thorr who in this version rapes people probably Racoon - who knows, insert average horrible thing racoons do in real life towards their progeny Rick Flag Jr. (James Gunn edition) - son of Rick Flag Sr. who handcuffed Superman => dogshitPeacemaker - son of White Dragon who constantly abused him while being alive (The OG Joe Gill version : father was first an Army officer and later a politician, while his mother was a research scientist. He learned some skills, including flying a fighter plane from his father, and his mother inculcated a passion for science in him, Post-Crisis Paul Kupperberg version : father was ex literal NS Germany officer who kysed himself right in front of little John, rest of "abuse" is John's delusion (?) of his "ghost" and post-Frank Robbins' Batman-esque PTSD from that) Bloodsport - son of abusive father and now he himself is kinda shitty father too, and parody on Deadshot's daughter dynamic/(")evolution(") from previousPolka-Dot - son of horrible mother that set experiment on him and his brothers All of these act like manchildren and even as womanchildren too!Only good thing that ever came out of all of this is fat woman in different sizes and costume and colored by Stefan Sonnenfeld or whatever company. Can't wait for new Jor-El/L to turn out to be dogshit badguy Mr Oz. + Bendis direction style!
>>144670424The fuck is with Gunn and fathers? Did his dad beat his ass or something?
>>144670449Probably not enough.
>>1446663341) Writer thought MODOK was stupid and wanted to use him as a butt of a joke and "dunk" on fans who wanted a serious version.2) Execs thought the funny take was the safe bet on such a weird character.3) I assume his actor did something to piss off someone higher up, so maybe this was a way to stick it to him.
>>144666373And then Marvel publicly announced they fired him.
>>144670424Idk why you brought in this rant about family dynamics in your reply when I just said Gunn’s Bloodsport was a better version of Ayer’s Desdshot. Feel free to have another meltdown in the reply though. It’s cute you had to buff out your list with Groot, Rocket, and Superman. Don’t remember learning about Nebula and Gamora’s blood parents in the movies, but it has been a minute. Not sure what your deal is with Rick Flag Jr is. Complaining about shitty parents in a comic book adaptation is funny
>>144664377This movie still makes me angry as fuck.
Galactus being a fart cloud.Trank Fantastic Four
>>144666447Not the anon you're replying to, but thanks, I been wanting to ask about Brainiac portrayal for a while and whether STAS was the first "Kryptonian-related AI" case because its really common now.
>>144670449The man opened his autobiography with a story about jerking off until completion on his boss' desk as a joke, that should tell you about his sense of morality and humor.
Arrowverse Stargirl is a stoic adult government agent from the 1940's who relocates to ancient Camelot to hide a piece of the Spear of Destiny, assumes the identity of Merlin and becomes King Arthur's secret lover since Guinevere is a lesbian.
>>144669709I agree
>>144665285The thing about the film Darren is that he wasnt orginally Darren but a character created for the film In Edgar Wright's drafts, Darren Cross' (who back then was called Greydon Clark) alter ego would have been Nano Warrior, instead of Yellowjacket. The drafts also featured a car chase sequence. Darren was a lackey supposedly in the one draft and it seems they just slapped Darren's name on the oc and called it a day
>>144670481>"dunk" on fans who wanted a serious versionWhy do comic book fans have such a big persecution complex? This dude can't simply have thought MODOK was silly and decided to use him as a joke, no, he did it specifically to make YOU angry.
>>144664377>Deathstroke>Took his name literally and made some bullshit villain/power on top of itHoly fuck capeshit is dead kek
Because Professor Pyg is so obscenely morbid within the comics (namely the part where he mutilates and breaks the minds of his victims into being mindless doll henchmen), Beware the Batman altered him completely so instead he's a hypocritical ecoterrorist that turns people into half-human half-animal monstrosities and has a toad man for a second in command.
>>144670969Ah yes, the show that was made before you were born totally killed capeshit.Frogniggers should all be killed.
>>144671000Professor Pyg is the worst of the nu villains and easily Morrisons worsf creation that's had any traction.
>>144670742Making a white chick black just because she's called "Black something". And nobody saw a problem with it during the making of the movie.
>>144665826I love how you can find shit like this for every Marvel character Kirby created.All you have to do is compare his and Lee's previous output and you can tell who really was instrumental.
>>144670948ahem,>>144666373Direct quote from him. Dunked on fans.
>>144671115Fuck you anon. I cant control the date of when I was born. I'm 18 by the way
>>144664377>Deathstroke>Causes death by giving you a strokeI can't tell if that's genius or retarded
>>144671126>Professor Pyg is the worst of the nu villainsNot even in top 50 worst.
>>144671296Alright, maybe I was a bit too harsh.So here's the thing, for some reason 90s capeshit shows were not very eager on adapting comic book villains and at times took some ridiculous liberties. Maybe it was budget, maybe it was something else.There was a show based on Marvel's Malibu imprint called Nightman and it barely had anything to do with the comics aside from the main character's origin and costume.I know nowadays with all the capeshit oversaturation this doesn't seem like a big deal but when the series in the OP used Metallo for one episode it blew my mind because it was refreshing compared to human villains like Lex Luthor, Intergang (who are pretty much generic gangsters in the series, really) or Prankster.My best guess is that nobody among the writers even knew who Deathstroke was and just coincidentally happened to create a villain with the same name. More likely than you think considering CW used a famous DC villain Scimitar. There's no villain called Scimitar in DC comics despite the writer's insistence.
>>144664377>Deathstroke in Lois & Clark is just some assassin that kills people by giving them heart attacks with his magnetism powers, and he looks like this.Antonio looks good in that, the material is actually a bit more forgiving (and he had a better body) than just spandex, especially without the sheen. Beyond that, for a 'magnetism' villain, the gray and black are a better look than say Mags (who looks awful in animation BECAUSE it's comic accurate) and only looks good in the white outfit in X-Men II but that was intended to be a play on a straitjacket and mental institution patient outfit.Also, deathstroke just otherwise is an enhanced mercenary assassin. "Death" and "Stroke" tied to killing with a heart attack actually, frankly, makes more sense. In the days of Universal Soldier and the like, why would ABC or WB TV studios want to adapt an enhanced former military into something OTHER that Not That.
>>144665021Don't understand why they made her Cassandra when she's obviously based on SIN who actually has affiliations with the Birds of Prey
>>144671384He's extremely edgy to the point of feeling like a parody. I imagine tiktok babies who like poppys playtime might find him cool but I think he's extremely lame.
>>144665142That's based on when Killer Month turned into Charaxes
>>144670742Sucks that we'll have to wait for at least a decade for a good Black Mask movie.
>>144672313How does Black Mask get consistently fucked over.>Joker twist in Arkham Origins>utter loser and a joke in this movie>people claimed Batwoman version was the best and that was the world's most retarded drug lord whose operation started falling apart because only two people in the world know the recipe to his super-special designer drug, lmao
>>144666184She's based on Mod Wonder Woman who was being published at the time. Neither were successful leading to the Wonder Woman show with Lynda Carter.One of the many attempt to retool Wonder Woman to make her more "marketable", yet fans
>>144670424>>144666505>>144666447>>144670226You know, all your collage work is actually some adorable and cute plus does really help give off those impression of KNOWLEDGE and FACT CHECKING save for all the details you omit, context you fail to provide, but simply for easily disproven facts you allege.
>>144672467One of the many attempt to retool Wonder Woman to make her more "marketable", yet fans still go for the original Wonder Woman. Just goes to show that execs have no clue and that women and their stories make them uncomfortable. This is the only reason Wonder Woman keeps getting retooled and keeps failing.
>>144664927ngl that was ballsy and so god damn funny.
>>144664377Not a character, but location. Harley Quinn show has Noonan’s as a “bad guy bar” for supervillains as opposed to criminals and assassins. Not having Bayter, the Superman autograph, or Sean’s 50 cal behind the bar is just jarring.
>>144672549And now this leaked into the shitty anime /co/'s been creaming itself over for these past few weeks.Grim.
>>144671292That was after fans autistically screeched about it.
>>144664533The villain was Italian J Jonah Jameson all along?!
>>144672566Part of me wants Hitman to appear in other media, mostly because I can finally talk to people about it. (I know no one else that read it) but shit like this makes me think they’ll just fuck it up. If they can’t get the fucking bar right, what would they do the Tommy and Nat?!
>>144665826>all the comics make the handle on his hammer too long>then blond Thor shows up with one that's half his own size and the handle is what gives him powers over the rain lollmao
>>144671198Ofc at the end of the day it is all assumptions on My part, but interesting how original Iron Man looked straight up like Original Metalo without his cape until Ditko did red and gold suit. Or how original Spiderman had pirate boots just like Captain American and X-Men people >>144671198look, I just find it interesting how there is a clear pattern at play and how many characters similar really And regardless of Your opinion whether xenomorph+Conduit sex result with guns straight up from NERF(tm) (following Harrison Ford logic blaster good, real gun bad , I guess) and with MCU Iron Man/Gotg nanotech modding on the spot is Cooler than basically video games shooter protag with infinite arsenal spawning out of thin air (years before even Wolfenstein 3D) as a super villainOr that clearly Deadshot stand in who served is a better even from comedy standpoint than a draft dodger that pretends to be war veteran. But fact remains the same and that is all his characters (so far) are same thing as >>144670742 >>144666255 and especially >>144664377
>>144665644Him being known as "the Count" because his dounle syringe left wounds that looked like vampire bites was pretty clever though
>>144672524Reading all them shitty old comics made him crazy. I know I'd go crazy reading all that stuff.
>>144670226DCAU is objectively the most emblematic and popular DC series, to say that because it is only in one series it is not emblematic is idiotic.>>144670424>improvedYes
>>144672524>all the details you omit, for example:>context you fail to provide,I provide as much as 4chan allows me to>but simply for easily disproven facts you allege.like what? tv show produced by Man of Steel writer that already referenced STAS Brainiac, which again, isn't comics Brainiac, never was (aside tie-ins ofc) and his 3 dots aren't "emblematic" at all And this is non-comics example ie >>144664377>What are some of the most drastically different adaptations of /co/ char
>>144673000Not him, but even if you're right, DCAU was allowed to be "emblematic" because they had the ability to take the entirety of comics history and pick out what they wanted to keep, what they wanted to retool, and what they wanted to create from scratch, in order to achieve the setting they wanted. Other adaptions simply aping off DCAU prevents them from being the next emblematic adaption to the current generation.
>>144673048Yes, but that's because the new creators are less talented than the ones in this series.
>>144673013>his 3 dots aren't "emblematic" at allFalse
>>144670785Unless there is some book Superman or unexpected pre-Brainiac Brainiac in a way there was ,in 1940, K-metal (that just made Superman powerless and a man... Super, instead of also slowly killing Clark) before there was Kryptonite Maybe 3 dots also were from somewhere before, same how Black Zero got reinterpretation from criminal that blew up Krypton in Earth-1 continuity to a cult in Byrne era to terraforming thingy (with 3 dots on it) in Man of Steel film that was about to blow up Earth
>>144672529>Just goes to show that execs have no clue and that women and their stories make them uncomfortableNo one cares, freak. Wonder Woman just sucks.
>>144673120you have nothing other than lack of knowledge and love for non-comics version of Brainiac
>>144664377That would be a great Cosmic Boy costume.
>>144670226>Only 3 depicted versions don't have some variation of the dot pattern not counting the afformentioned first appearance and 3 name-onlysI stand corrected. Wow, you sure proved me wrong.Where do you think DCAU latched onto it from in the first place?
>>144664377>In X-Men Origins: Wolverine, an elderly couple find Wolverine after escaping the Weapon X facility. In Marvel Comics, the couple plays a similar role in discovering Logan but are substantially younger and core members of the Canadian superhero team Alpha Flight.

>>144665402Dick was a cop a while back so it tracks.
>>144673714>I stand corrected. Wow, you sure proved me wrong.>Where do you think DCAU latched onto it from in the first place?Latched on what? Brainiac not being from Colu who doesn't shrink cities or doesn't shrink anything else for that matter? Weird Curt Swan thingy that isn't DCAU 3 dots?You can't count? Oh sweetie!
>>144674023FoX-Men Kents because these movies were produced by Donner's jewifu.
>>144675141>3 big dots in a v pattern>2 smaller dotsSome of the others may have them different relative sizes and arrangements or sub plug jacks but they're still there. It takes a special kind of disingenuous to pretend they're not an integral part of his design since "classic" Brainiac was establishedAnd make that 2 depicted examples, not 3. I didn't take a good look at golden boy's head.
>>144665511You're telling me the fags in those DCSHG threads got moth pussy and never did anything with it?
