i do like the border of the tube

AntLeon · December 23, 2019, 1:26am

THis is the family friendly version of YJ cyborg origin

AntLeon · December 23, 2019, 1:26am

Morrow. as in T.O. Morrow?

Jay_Kay · December 23, 2019, 1:26am

Yep, he was there in the comic too.

Jay_Kay · December 23, 2019, 1:27am

They’re really selling the proper body horror that comes from Cyborg’s origin.

Jay_Kay · December 23, 2019, 1:28am

Straight out of the comic, so good they had to put it in the live action movie.

You would think she would have some social skills enough to get that people don’t really like swords pointed at their face.

Jay_Kay · December 23, 2019, 1:32am

I like how they add to the Apoclyptian part of this new origin and add the cocoon element and basically a tweaked cousin of a parademon conversion.

AntLeon · December 23, 2019, 1:32am

Still i like the brazen. maybe it’s a lot of sword pointing on themyscira

Jay_Kay · December 23, 2019, 1:35am

I do like the cocky Superman we see in this early time period, gives him a good sense of growth throughout the series, and makes him feel more fun – especially since this is probably one of the few times he can really let loose.

AntLeon · December 23, 2019, 1:35am

Hey Freddy

Jay_Kay · December 23, 2019, 1:36am

Billy, who do you think you are, a white guy in a horror movie?

AntLeon · December 23, 2019, 1:37am

I really like the hood. the crackles not so much

Jay_Kay · December 23, 2019, 1:38am

The hood reminds me a lot of video game characters like Ezio Auditore and the like – inspirations that Billy of this time period is going to more likely take than circus strongmen.

Also, this is one of the things where I think they actually do things better here than in the comic. In the comic, it’s never really explained how Diana went from Washington DC to Metropolis.

Our first SuperWonder moment. Adorbs

Jay_Kay · December 23, 2019, 1:40am

What a meet cute. While I don’t know if I like them as an “endgame” couple, I do like stories with Superman and Wonder Woman as a couple.

Jay_Kay · December 23, 2019, 1:40am

Flash’s reaction is the verbal superhero equivalent of Jessie drinking and drinking the water in Breaking Bad.

AntLeon · December 23, 2019, 1:41am

I can see them having a thing, but nothing really longterm

Jay_Kay · December 23, 2019, 1:42am

At least in modern days – in stories way off in the future where Steve and Lois are long gone (like Kingdom Come and the Dark Knight universe), eh, it’s more no holds barred.

AntLeon · December 23, 2019, 1:43am

On again off again and on again when they are what’s left

Jay_Kay · December 23, 2019, 1:43am

Ya had to say it, didn’t ya, Hal, ya dingus.

And Flash nerding out over Batman.
