:batparrot: Gotham Knights (TV Show) S1 Discussion Thread :batparrot:

Well, sure, they do occasional very special episodes where the villains are actually malevolent Lovecraftian entities, but a typical Batman villain is for sure closer to the Court of Owls than a typical Scooby-Doo villain.

I don’t think it was really supposed to be a surprise to people who hadn’t read the comics. A lot of the people watching this show are DC fans, but a lot of them are just The CW fans, and there’s nothing wrong with pulling a surprise on them that’s not a surprise to the DC nerds. I don’t think the plot suffers because it’s not a surprise, given that it’s “revealed” one episode in. I hope there’ll be proper surprises later on though.

Gotta disagree with you there, man. I loved that scene, mostly because I like seeing Luthor get humbled, even by a powerless Clark.

That’s a bummer. I never watched the show, but I liked the comic.

Don’t take my word for it. Give it a chance & maybe you’ll like it :slightly_smiling_face:. I enjoyed the first season (volume?) of the comic, which is what attracted me to the show, but I found them to be totally different experiences. There was a thread here dedicated to the show and seems like that was the general sentiment.

It undid 10 seasons.

Of course is losing to Clark. Welling looks like he can eat Cryer with his stomach tied behind his back.

I truly, completely enjoyed this premiere and I cannot wait to see more!!!

What surprised me the most from this premiere is how human this Bruce Wayne is, he adopted a son and didn’t force him to become Robin? Who saw that coming? Hahaha!!!

Yes.

I am a professional. Who better to entrust a child’s life to than a guy who will get her to take on an army of murderous kryptonians cult.
