Should Question get a TV Show? Who would you cast? Would he be an Objectivist? Buddhist? Conspiracy Theorist?
>>150098838i'd do it as a mini-series with the question taking down corrupt politicians, but we only get glimpses of him. the focus of the series would be on vic sage and renee montoya investigating the politicians, uncovering the conspiracy they're involved in and trying to figure out who the question is.mid-series it's revealed that vic and renee have both been using the question identity to solve crimes without the knowledge or approval of the other. eventually, they both finally find out the truth and agree to share information and resources to stop the politicians, but after discussing their work as the question, they start to notice that there's reports of him that neither of them were responsible for, and they realize there's a third person using the name. they start working together to put a stop to the conspiracy and find the third question.they finally manage to track him down in the last episode and the twist is the third question is actually anarky, the reports just assumed "weird mask and a big hat" was just the question. lonnie was inspired by vic, the first question, and figured out there was a second one pretty quickly, and decided he should try to help his city too. i'd have a recurring background character that looks like walter kovacs/rorschach with his "the end is nigh" sign to fuck with people too
>>150099518I'd focus on a single Question, he seems too low profile to me to have copycats running around.For Vic I'd go with Dan Stevens, for Renee I think Adria Ajorna (Bix in Andor) can be a good fit
>>150098838No one cares about comics question so just do the conspiracy theorist guy from JLU.
>>150098838The ideal Question show would be one that no TV company would ever make, which is Vic being constantly frustrated at the state of television investigative journalism only being allowed to push the narrative that their billionaire corporate owners want pushed, and creating the Question as a way of pursuing true justice. You don't even need to go too deep into the conspiracy theory rabbit hole because they're so naked with their manipulations now that it's all in plain view, they just try to call you insane for noticing the obvious.
>>150100410Sounds perfect
For the Gunn-verseUse the conspiracy theorist angle from JLU.Have him be a supporting character who pops up in other peoples movies/TV shows where he talks cryptically about the big thing he's trying to uncover.Have it build up to the reveal of The Authority, who become an antagonist for Superman
>>150098838How aboutvall three?
>>150100410Actually that is a retarded take that is against character as a core aspect of the Ditko version was that Vic was allowed to do whatever he wanted by his station's owner who believed wholeheartedly in him and who's arch enemy was the station owner's evil woke son who wanted Vic fired because he constantly di stories with a right wing bent tone that pissed off the liberal elite
>>150102557What about all the question comics written after that? Did you read those?
>>150098838This thread again? What's going on?
>>150099518Montoya belongs nowhere near the Question. Fuck out of here.
>>150098838If the Question got a show, DC would make sure HER show would not be about the Question we want. It's like asking for a Harley show about her classic version. It's not happening.
>>150099518>vic sage and renee montoya>both been using the question identity to solve crimes without the knowledge or approval of the otherInto the fucking trash.It's Vic, and only Vic. There's no reason to want what you suggested.
Why do we hate Renee Montoya again?
>>150103914legacy characters are garbage
>>150098838I'd adapt the 80s series with each issue being an episode. Including the annuals and crossover with Green Arrow and Batman.
>>150103914She's not a good, cool, or entertaining chatacter.
>>150102557At this point, Ditko's Question will look like Rorschach-lite to mainstream audiences
>>150103979Nah, Renee Question is a good idea that DC has done piss-all with. Vic's story has a good arc and a good end.That being said, I would much rather Renee not be involved in any adaptation, let Vic get his. The O'neil run is fucking prime for it. Something neo-noir and somewhat stylized would be great.
>>150098838Objectivist would be ideal, but DC nowadays is way too pussy to go full Ditko without making it a gay "deconstruction", so it's never gonna happen.
>>150105489It's Rorschach, but better written, because Ditko is better than Moore.
>>150106543
>>150106601Based
>>150098838No. Fuck adaptations, you needy faggot.
>>150106543>>150106601Have you actually read these comics? I love Ditko, but Rorschach is infinitely better written.
>>150098838I would love a Tim-verse Question animated series. Just a crazy /pol/lak going on misadventures finding the secrets of how Girl scouts aid the mind control of the illuminati. Hell a comic of crazy Question would be great. The Ditko rendition of the character is just so fun.
The O'Neil/Cowan series would make good adaptation material, even has its own downer ending built-in, two of them at that with The Question Returns.>>150105335She was just fine as a cop before Rucka started piling cringe upon cringe due to his own personal hang-ups.
>>150105489Not quite given that they made Rorscach and his mask the new KKK uniform of choice in the Watchmen tv show
>>150098838that is the question
>>150108177>Rorschach is infinitely better written.On opposite day.
>>150109380Said the blind man.
>>150103212This should edited to anon
>>150098838conspiracy theorist going after comic conspiracy tier mysteries.Dealing weird shit like Gorilla City and Time Travel.
When will DC make a Question version of Superman?
>>1501039140 good runs.
would totally watch a question tv show if he were based on the jlu version where he is a conspiracy theorist. i think if there are people who know him its from the cartoon, not many know the comic version.and you could easily just make a tv show x files with super powers
>>150098838>Who would you castI would prefer it voiced by Jeffrey Combs like in Justice League Unlimited.
>>150113189i like that he voiced two very different characters in the dcau
>>150113189so animated? Or separate voice actor?
>>150114389I don't know man. A separate voice actor. DC stays true to Question and doesn't reveal his face, so it doesn't become a problem. Not in the first film, at least.
>>150114462could work... cheaper too, get a stuntman and voice over him
>>150102557Yeah and that was when independently-owned local television stations still existed before everything got bought out by corporations who sabotage local journalism so they can push ideological pro-Wall Street doctrine.
>>150103212good question
>>150098838>Should Question get a TV Show?Yes, he should.
>>150099518Just because Montoya has a bad case of man-face doesn't mean she can pull off being The Question
>>150115211>n independently-owned local television stations still existedIn the 60's?Weren't there basically four channels?
>>150117157There were three networks, but most of the individual stations were independently owned. That's why they were called networks. Each individual station owned and operated the infrastructure to put their programming out, and affiliated with the network to distribute the network's shows. Stations directly owned by the network itself were present but rare. This is what led to the downfall of DuMont, the original fourth network before 1956, because it struggled to get affiliates outside its own stations. Individual stations were responsible for their own local news broadcasts, and while they did get national news stories from the network, local and regional news had to be reported on by the station's own local journalists and reporters.Directly owned network stations (called O&Os, for "owned-and-operated") are still in the minority because cable made it much more affordable for networks to own their own cable stations; most individual terrestrial stations are owned by a collection of large national media corporations like Nexstar or Sinclair. Sinclair in particular has gotten well known for both rapid expansion and fucking around with local broadcasting to push the narratives that the corporate owners want. At last count there's only three truly independent terrestrial stations in the US that are religious programming.
>>150116532No, he shouldn't.
>>150098838He's unfilmimable
>>150113189He was doing a somewhat Rorschach impression.
>>150120008why?
>>150098838What's your Question, son?
>>150108177Considering audiences had the exact opposite of the intended reaction to Rorschach, I don't think he's actually well written.
>>150098838Objectivist, conspiracy theorist please!
>>150123073>audiences had the exact opposite of the intended reactionThat's not entirely true. He was meant to be liked. If anything, he was too well written.
>>150098838What a nice suit
>>150123073Watchmen as a narrative doesn't work if Rorscach isn't sympathetic. Try to not just rely on internet clickbait articles.
>>150125828nta but the problem wasn't that people thought he was sympathetic, the problem was that people thought he was cool and aspirational
>>150125828It's not a secret Rorschach was meant to be a critique on objectivism
>>150126347Not exactly. He's based on Objectivist characters, but it was more about how someone reaches the point of adhering to black and white morality in a world that is this close to tearing itself apart. He had a very shitty life and essentially went crazy.>>150125966 Moore sees his fans that go "literally me!" thinking that they couldn't all have had such a terrible life, so he thinks they're just being cringe.
>>150127357Don't forget moral absolutism is a core tenant of objectivism, but I agree the critique was focused on moral absolutism specifically and not objectivism as whole
He should be a radical centrist
>>150098838Slenderman
