Here's a fun little question for y'all (Now I've said y'all a texan girl I know is on her way to murder me, as she told me never to say it again. So you better answer fast before she gets me).

If you could air your own superhero show (live action), about a character who has not recently had their own TV series who would you choose? Who would you cast (either as the main character or do the whole cast if you're feeling adventerous) and who would your season one big bad be?

I'll post my reply in the morning my lovelies.

Time to whip out that Question TV show pitch I've been saving for when I become big time television man.

But really, I'd love to see a TV show about the Question. Put it on one of those premium channels like Showtime or HBO so they don't have to censor anything, cast Damian Lewis as the Question (just check out this NBC show called Life where Damian Lewis basically played the exact same kind of character), and make it an adaptation of the O'Neil series. Season one would adapt the first volume or so, with the big bad being the evil Reverend dude from the first four issues. Boom.

Obvious, but Seven Soldiers of Victory. Probably featuring Vigilante, Shining Knight, Crimson Avenger, Star Spangled Kid, Stripsey, and stand ins for Green Arrow and Speedy, since those two are probably a hair too popular. I'd imagine it going through the weird and wonderful side of DC's more obscure stuff. I really think the crew has potential. There are some pretty cool ideas buried in those old comics, they just need a killer writing team to bring it to life.

I am not happy with that post, but I'd be a lot less happy with anything happening to this roleplay and if I have to force out a couple mediocre posts in order to ensure this thread sees activity from me, then I'm going to do it.

You all have put too much work into this Season and the last to let this game come to a screeching halt so I want to do my part to give it a fighting chance and if I can inspire a few people to do the same, we might just prove @Byrd Man wrong yet!

I guess when in doubt, write an origin.

We'll see how this plays out.

Assuming we have HBO money and the effects don't come off as cheesy and embarrassing?

Astro City.

Big ensemble cast, lots of short-form and long-form stories to choose from, and a take on classic superhero nostalgia that isn't dripping with post-modern irony and obnoxious self-reference. I wouldn't necessarily have a 'big bad' to deal with, but I would say season one's over-arching plot would be uncovering the fate of the Silver Agent.

Assuming we have a more limited budget, though, I'd want to do a gangland period piece with The Shadow. Or add Damage Control to the list of Marvel shows on Netflix.

And while it's not live-action, I would kill to see the animators behind Avatar and Legend of Korra do a series for Invincible.

If we're including Eastern comics, I would love to see a live action Astro Boy adaption worth a damn. It exists in comic form (Pluto is god damn amazing). There have been attempts at a live action based on Pluto, but that's fallen through just like the attempts at an anime adaptation.

On the Western front... Sam Alexander, in a series connected to the MCU's Guardians of the Galaxy.

@Master Bruce A change of perspective definitely helps and it was a good read. I love how consistently damaged your Bruce is, his motivations are sound and classical but he's so evidently damaged in a way that most of the movies tend to skip over. So to see some of the progress he's made between his 'Origin Story' as showcased in your latest post to the team up with Superman shows a very intimate mastery of the character.

I'm looking forward to reading more.

@Pirouette I just added the character sheet template to my previous response but it would definitely be cool to see a Wasp join the game.
