First look at DC's upcoming animated shows: >Mister Miracle>My Adventures With Green Lantern>Starfire!>DC Super Powers
>>154327422Where are the white men? I can't relate to this.
>>154327422>Both Green Lantern and Starfire have the same art style and MAWS Lame, that show is shit
>>154327456Batman and Superman's right there, stupid.
>>154327487Man, I'm so glad Brianne is finally getting her own show
>>154327422I fucking hate the MAWS universe so goddamn much. Surface level adaptation weeb bullshit. The fuck is that Jessica? >Have an interesting PTSD ridden character overcoming her fears and becoming a solid Green Lantern addition >Nah lets just make her a dime a dozen teen heroFuck you
>>154327506
>>154327532These guys just want to make a sappy high school AU fanfic. They have zero interest in creating a proper Green Lantern show.
>>154327532>>Have an interesting PTSD ridden character overcoming her fears and becoming a solid Green Lantern addition >>Nah lets just make her a dime a dozen teen heroblame super hero girls
>>154327422>Mister MiracleHuh. Would've thought he'd be too niche to get a standalone show
>>154327487Blackfire
>>154327506>>154327544
>>154327604They’re pulling a Guardians of the GalaxyHe’ll probably be unrecognizable
>>154327600That show sucks dick too, but at least its aware of the target audience. Most of the autists on this board that won't shut up about it are horsefuckers and pedos. And what's insane about that show is they made her a goddamn hippie, and somehow Bumblebee is the shy one. They could have flipped their gimmicks!
>>154327637
>>154327532New Jessica will be terrible, but let's not pretend old Jessica was anything more than some bullshit for Latin heritage covers an editor demanded.
>>154327502ngl I like derpy Krypto
>>154327600>blame super hero girlsG1 as well as G2, also that shitty RWBY series
>>154327506>>154327672I like Starfire with orange/yellow-ish skin, the dark brown they're using for her in the new show doesn't really fit Starfire IMO
>>154327647You suck dick
>>154327728Agreed
>>154327600>blame super hero girlsSo Jessica might have lesbian moms in MAWGL as well?
>>154327532Same
>>154327502>>154327693That Krypto looks like he was designed by C. H. Greenblatt
>>154327532>>154327798
>>154327532>>154327798>>154327822
>>154327758
Jesse Quick fuck yeah?
Netflix Voltron was a mistake
>>154327422>More anime bullshit>Season 2 of mid crusaderNo thanks
>>154327464Damn, this must be the worst Jessica Cruz redesign yet. Not surprising. It matches the MAWS guy's usual track record with supersuits.
>>154327447God damn it it's gonna be that Tom King shit isn't it? They're going to ruin my boy, aren't they?
>>154328312Anon... He... Tom King is the showrunner and executive producer
>>154327502>C.H. Greenblatt is still getting work:)
>>154327422jesus this all looks so shit
>>154328349God damn it. So the world-at-large's introduction to one of my all time favorite characters is going to be some fucking sad boy cia hack's depression fest?
>>154329760For some reason, Gunn is in love with the man and gave him a ton of projects.
>>154327487Keep this shit the fuck away from my kids.
>>154327822I busted early nuts to this bitch. Dat ass is CASH.
>>154327837I mean, Heatwave is on the spectrum.
>>154327464Couldn't even give her the little lantern over her eye?
>>154330903She will get it at the end of the show
>>154328084At least they can't ruin Simon Baz's design because DC is allergic to adapting him into other media besides comics for some reason
>>154327422They are making a Get Jiro cartoon?
>>154327464So will this Jessica be Hawaiian since they cast the lady from Moana for her?
>>154331101The voice actress is part Puerto Rican
>>154331174If they make her Puerto Rican-Polynesian instead of Mexican-Honduran, that would make people super mad and rightfully so.
>>154331174erm jessica is mexican, not puerto rican, that's the incorrect type of latinex
>>154331294>>154331316At the end of the day everything south of the US is Mexican.
>>154331396This is a rare point of agreement between the American left and right.
Starfire got her own solo other media project before Dick/Nightwing did, lol.
>>154327422it's all faux anime
>>154331101Thre important part is that she's some shade of brown, so it's fine.
>>154327464Better look.That's probably Kyle and either Nikki Jones or a race swapped Alex DeWitt.
>>154327487
>>154327422It's really sad how Teen Titans GO is the best current DC cartoon and it seems nothing from this decade is going to surpass it
>>154327502
>>154327506Starfire has Brianne Drouhard's style, not MAWS.MAWGL obviously has the same as MAWS tho, they take place in the same universe.
>>154327728It's not really dark, that's the bad photo quality >>154333351
>>154333351>>154333368>DC Super Powers and Starfire cartoons part of MAWS universeSo this is the new DCAU?
>>154333480Starfire and Super Powers are not part of the MAWverse, only MAWGL is.
>>154329760It's also going to be part of Gunn's DCU btw.
>>154333307>>154333351>>154333368it looks bad
>>154333621I kinda like how Starfire looks, I trust Brianne at least.
>>154333307Holy Kyle is chopped
>>154330018King probably knows all about Gunn's *silly secrets*.
>>154333678her nose ticks me off
>>154333809I think it's cute
>>154327532>Have an interesting PTSD ridden characterJessica was never interesting and was always a shit character
>>154333739I think it's mostly just classic old nepotism.Like, maybe King knows some dirt about him, but they seem genuinely friendly with each other, and I'm sure Gunn likes King's slop well enough, definitely seems like the type of guy who would like that kind of stories, but to have so many of his stories adapted and/or serve as the inspiration for his cinematic universe, and even outright give him a chair as a producer, it's definitely just Gunn giving his friend a job.
>>154333695He looks like any generic animesque white boy, it's fine.I'm actually surprised he looks that white, considering DC has been pushing his Mexican heritage somewhat lately, but I guess they wanted some variety and Jessica is already the main character, so there's no need to have Kyle look extra brown.
>>154333368This kind of thing of making shows about young super heroes, but just aging down adult heroes bothers me so much.Like, why are you aging down Plastic Man and Non-Black Lightning when you could use Plastic Man's son or Black Lightning's daughters.BLACK LIGHTNING IS A TEACHER IN THE COMICSHE COULD BE A TEACHER HERE
>>154333875Race mixing is bad tho, they should've just kept them as a Mexican x Mexican couple.
>>154333955Kyle will probably still be half Mexican from his father's side, he'll just look white like in the comics.Maybe that's how he and Jess were friends at first before they drifted apart, their dads took them to some Mexican party or whatever.
Since Jessica is Mexican they should change her origin so that her trauma comes from her friends and family getting brutally killed by cjng niggas
>>154333991Her trauma is that she's a teenager with anxiety anon, that's much more relatable to the target audience.
anyone remember that ya novel from a few years ago where jessica and her family are immigrants from mexico and she's afraid of getting deported?
>>154334018Not really. What was it called?
>>154334018or am i delusional and making up stuff
>>154334032>>154334034Nah, you're not misremembering, it was definitely a thing: https://www.dc.com/graphic-novels/unearthed-a-jessica-cruz-story
>>154327897So you'd rather TTG 24/7 to point where it clogs CN?
>>154334083Oh yeah, I remember this.I didn't read it, but I remember reading it was a thing from some Solicitations thread.
>>154330182What's your alternative, bitch?
>>154334083yeah that was it. i think i skimmed through the storytime thread when it first released and that's where my memories of it came from.
>>154327837>Some fucking loser with a flamethrower versus a very large and very butch lesbianLet's be real you fuckers would never recognise the original Heatwave on sight
>>154334241I actually would, not many fire based bad guys have costumes like that.
>>154334083I remember this having random connections to aztec gods, they really just use names
>>154333837Baz and Jess were good under Johns and no one else.
>>154327422Exciting!
>>154334101Literally anything else, retard.
>>154327422>My Adventures With Green LanternWE ARE SO BACK, LANTERN BROS!
>>154336009GREEN LANTERN IS SAVED
>>154333739>>154333839King's mother is some big shot producer in Warner. That is why he keeps getting the royal treatment.
>>154336009No
>>154336470No wonder he's such a nancy boy with a mommy fetish
>>154336470not for long because elison isnt letting them hired to risk a coup
>>154327422The future of American animation is just anime but woke and Batman?
>>154338026>animeNot even anime but fauxanime made by the same 2 korean studios since apparently other korean studios don't exist.
>>154327532>jessica>interesting
>>154327422They're still making more Caped Crusader?? Why? Wasn't it a flop?
>>154340191I know right? They should've made another season of the Bat-Senpai cartoon.
>>154340191People on streaming like it, looks serious from the thumbnail
>>154327464>>154327502>Five de-aged heroesDoes WB think kids can't relate to adult heroes anymore?
>>154340457Suits and writers know nothing about what kids like.
>>154340457Maybe, I thought Batman in TAS was the coolest motherfucker as a kid so they're wrong though
>>154340191I can't believe Bruce Timm designed that ugly Harley. He became the very thing he swore to destroy.
>>154340457At least Kyle, Jess, and Jesse are all roughly around the age of the first generation of sidekicks, so them being portrayed as young isn't a big problem for me.My main problem is Plastic Man and Black Lightning, two adult heroes that already have young counterparts (Offspring and Thunder and Lightning) that they could've used instead.Hell, Black Lightning is a teacher in the comics, if they needed an adult hero to help teach young heroes, he was right there, no idea why they aged him down.I get irrationally upset when DC mixes generations like this, it should be obvious to simply use the young characters instead of aging down the adult ones, but they don't, it frustrates me.
>>154327502Is that Jimmy?
>>154341533No it's a deaged Black Lightning (he just goes by Lightning) for the new show DC Super Powers.
>>154327506Huh? They look nothing alike
>>154327874Looks nothing like that in the pic, amigo.
>>154334091>would you rather have manure compared to shitWhat an ultimatum
>>154327422>Pass>Pass>Might be cute>Pass
>>154342240She's a blonde speedster, same difference.
>>154333351>>154333368According to descriptions, Plas, Lightning, and Jesse will be joined by Aquagirl (we don't know which), a Green Lantern (we don't know which), and Terra (probably the original, but at this point I'd rather not guess).Also Martian Manhunter is their teacher or principal, don't remember.
MAWS relies far too much on DUDE WE LIKE ANIME and making a GL a walking fucking Mahou Shojou isn't gonna help
>>154340659Actually if the MAWS clip is ten year old jess. And the GL clip is 14 year old jess.What is the point of the same universe?Is there gonna be a massive time skip between s3 and s4?
>>154342513There are more people like anime than people who like Green Lantern, or even DC in general.
>>154342513Honestly think MAWGL will be popular A MAW universe would be popular with kids today
whole lotta magical girl stuff.
>>154342537>if the MAWS clip is ten year old jessIs she 10 year old in MAWS? Is that stated in the show? I honestly don't know cause I don't watch it.I assumed she already was 14 or 15 and just looked very young to signify her mousy personality, while someone like Alex would probably look more mature as a contrast to present her as more outgoing and developed, teens can look very different and that can be used to show us their personalities.
>>154327502>even animated Krypto has to be James Gunn's mutttiresome
MAWS is the most popular Superman adaptation by far. You can cry about it all you want but the future is faux anime aimed at girls.
>>154342671I know.But at least it means they're making new versions of these characters that appeal to new audiences.So that's something I guess.I just hope they make something that appeals to me before I die in 50-60 years
>>154342671Doesn't the series average around 100k in viewers? It seems like it because twitter can boost things by alot.
>>154342671DC is doing the right thing to appeal to kids todayMarvel is just doing nostalgia stuff
>>154327422Wow, they didn't cancel that Batman series? It was buns.
>>154342713Are you retarded? Why would they do that if you aren't the target audience going foward?
>>154342748By doing temu dragon ball and rippingit off? A series that started in the 80s? Kids aren't watching MAWS.
>>154334083Was it any good? I'm surprised the board didn't try to /pol/ it up like they did I am not Starfire and BARDA.
>>154342758These things fluctuate and change, this won't be the only thing they'll do forever.I hope.We'll see if I'm wrong in 2086.
>>154342808No kids aren’t watching XMen97 or any new Marvel show. Maybe even Disney animation in general
>>154333368Please tell me that's not supposed to be Static Shock or Black Lightning?
>>154334241He's literally one of the only characters in existence that has a flamethrower in the shape of a handgun.
>>154342955>Corny Nigga, S T A T I C S H O C K>WHOOP WHOOP
>>154342955First of all, he's called just Static, Static Shock was the name of the show.And second, that is in fact Black Lightning, or I guess Jefferson Pierce, who in this will just go by Lightning for some reason.
>>154342955I think is fairplay, mr terrific sidekick or something
>>154342997The blacks didn't want that version of him in the racial draft.
>>154342997>that is in fact Black Lightning,
>>154327532>Surface level adaptation weeb bullshitWeeb bullshit my ass. This shit is for the Sailor Moon and Steven Universe audience. What dude who watches REAL Dragon Ball and Naruto's gonna be gay enough to watch it? Western animation is just for gays and girls now.
>>154342997>Static Shock was the name of the show.The lil'romeo version of the theme song genuinely just burns the name "Static shock" in your head so much you figure that's his full hero name as a kid
>>154342563Kids aren't watching MAWS
Reminder
>>154343236yes but 140 japanese animators got tortured during the production of demon guy, for superman it was only 100 indians and like 20 mexicans
>>154343207Which is a massive problem.They act like kids are gonna watch the series and water it down.Shit is on adult swim but it plays like it could be DC nation on a Saturday morning 14 years ago.They had an excuse with Season 1 and 2 sort of being forced to [AS] mid production but Season 3 100% could be more adult
>>154343271And yet it made almost $800M on a $20M budget. Big success.
>>154343311>but Season 3 100% could be more adultIt's made by quirk chungus broads for other quirk chungus broads and autists. They think anything above family friendly's "edgy".
>>154333906>Like, why are you aging down Plastic Man and Non-Black Lightning when you could use Plastic Man's son or Black Lightning's daughters.Why introduce people to character that have never/rarely be used in animation form when you can just force the more well known heroes to be kids
>>154343367>They think anything above family friendly's "edgy".I'd disagree with you but I saw someone on twitter call the show "unapologetically horny" like weeks ago
>>154343448Tweens are watching and enjoying it
>>154343477Tween boys and girls or just tween girls?
>>154343477Tweens have shit taste
>>154343005It's Jefferson Pierce.
>>154343184Maybe if you're STUPID.
>>154343393At some point, characters like Raven or Starfire or Beast Boy were completely unknowns, now they're extremely popular because a cartoon used them.You just have to give these characters a chance.Also, if you used their young counterparts, you could still use the adult heroes as mentors, there's potential there.
>>154343566>Also, if you used their young counterparts, you could still use the adult heroes as mentors, there's potential there.You know for a fact they aren't gonna do that
>>154343566Exactly Now Amethyst will become big
>>154343539Yes
>>154342669>Anon mad at a dogWhat a loser
>>154343659Obviously, because the cartoon is already done and they can't change it, but I'm talking hypothetically here.If you're making a show about young heroes, why not actually use the young heroes? Almost every big DC hero has one or two young counterparts, it really bothers me that that's something that isn't really taken advantage of.>>154343665I mean, maybe if her show had been greenlit.Like I said, you have to give these characters a chance, I remember her shorts being pretty well-liked back in the day.It's not like they're guaranteed to suddenly become household names, but trying and experimenting with characters that haven't been adapted before in search of the next big thing just seems better to me than just using the same old characters over and over again, it sure would give us some more variety at least.
>>154327487Apparently that green shit is not to be trusted
>>154343766You mean sprigatito?
>>154342455>AquagirlKinda hope it's Tula cause she's an old character and would like her to be used more, but I feel like Lorena Marquez is likelier cause she's Hispanic or something, and that actually matters when choosing characters to adapt now, except when characters are race swapped, guess we'll see.Alternatively, it occurred to me it could be a young Mera using the Aquagirl name, they already changed Black Lighting, why not Mera too?>Green LanternWith how many there are, this is a hard one to guess, I'm boiling it down to Hal, Guy, Simon, or Jo.Hal cause he isn't really being adapted anywhere else (he's leaving the DCU after season 1 of Lanterns) and they could use a jock like him in that show.Alternatively, Guy is a different flavor of jock they could use, and his appearance in Superman could mean that he's gonna show up in more projects like these, plus his loud personality makes him an obvious character to use in a cartoon.Simon and Jo are the wildcards here, they could be the tokens of the group, every show needs someone like that.Jessica and Kyle are already in the other show, and John is already the lead for the DCU, so it's probably not them, but we'll see, maybe they'll double dip.Alternatively, it could be Jennie as a GL, because they just do whatever they want.>TerraI'll eat my hat if it's not Tara Markov.
>>154343759>If you're making a show about young heroes, why not actually use the young heroes? Almost every big DC hero has one or two young counterparts, it really bothers me that that's something that isn't really taken advantage of.That's sort of what Young Justice was. S1 was the young counter parts of the big heroes.S2 had a lot of them grow up and end up as the mentors/leaders to the new generation of young heroes
>>154343979Yeah but Young Justice was shit.I want something that isn't shit.
>>154344059I'll give you Season 3 onward but I still enjoyed Season 1 and 2.God I still miss Wally
>>154344059It's money, bro. Big names sell better than nobodies. Especially now when these studios are hurting for cash thanks to their poor choices.
>>154344119Most characters were nobodies at some point before they got adapted.The show is called "DC Super Powers", the brand is DC, not any specific hero, this should be used to sell less popular characters.And they're already doing that with Plastic Man and (Black) Lightning and JESSE QUICK.NO ONE'S EVER HEARD OF HERTHE WHOLE TEAM SHOULD'VE BEEN NOBODIES LIKE HER
>>154343566TT was heavily inspired by anime, but you could still make the jump to comics because, in broad strokes, the show's concept was similar enough. There's nothing like MAWGL in Green Lantern comics. If you like the teenage romance between that show's versions of Jessica and Kyle, you won't find anything like that between them in the comics.MAWGL is practically an original IP with a Green Lantern skin.
>>154343519Looks exactly like him, another fascinating case of custom swapped character
>>154327422>FrenchDoes this mean we are going to see Big Woman Barda being plowed by her tiny husband?>That KyptoWhy?
>>154342240And Jessica Cruz looks nothing like her image there but name another blond speedster girl in DC
>>154343747Cope, he made it ugly
>>154344340I'm talking about DC Super Powers anon, I'm actually glad the high school Green Lantern show is about Jess and Kyle instead of Jess and Hal or something.>>154344381It's just a white variation of his Black Lightning costume.
>>154344466>I'm talking about DC Super Powers anon, I'm actually glad the high school Green Lantern show is about Jess and Kyle instead of Jess and Hal or something.Mhh, okay. I'm glad they are getting their own show too. I just wish it wasn't such wildly different take.
