Talk about getting a push after spending decades being most notable for being the inspiration for The Comedian.

That's interesting, what's the history of this character? Any notable runs/appearances?

Not much if I recall. Think he mainly pops up whenever the other Charleton characters around or the Blue Beetle series from the late-00s.
And I guess coming full circle in [I]Multiversity[/I] when Morrison did a pastiche of [I]Watchmen[/I] in it.

It could be a prequel. Disney+ is doing a series about Cassian Andor and K2, so a character having died in a movie shouldn’t stop them from having a show about their earlier adventures.

The character is pretty bonkers. I don't know about his Charlton days, but his DC backstory is awesome. His dad was Nazi who ran concentration camp and blew his brains out in front of him when he was a child. Now. he talks to the ghost of his dead dad, who is still decked out in full Nazi regalia.
I have no idea if the John Cena version is going to go this nuts...

Also the fact that his dad was a Nazi basically gave him a seriously messed up complex where he is so dedicated to peace that he will use violence to advance his quest for it. And he’s crazy and thinks all the men he’s killed are talking to him as ghosts in his helmet

Yeah, that sounds like a pretty entertaining character.

WB is genuinely stupid if they don't get Henry Cavil on a new Superman movie ASAP! His career has really taken off and he wants to play the character.

Man, no wonder Gunn picked this guy :p.

She says Geoff Johns is basically done in Hollywood.. What's her agenda? Is he really finished? I thought he was still involved in movies like Shazam, Wonder Woman and Aquaman. Also the Stargirl and Doom Patrol shows. But she says everybody hates him and calls him a sociopath.. I mean, Patty Jenkins recently said she loves working with him.
I just don't believe all she says and she always gets very personal with actors and people working in these movies and shows. I think time will tell if Johns is really done in the business. She's acting like Snyder and Fisher did nothing wrong. Hello, BvS didn't live up to the hype and underperformed.

Can we please stop posting Grace here like she’s some kind of insider? Cathy Yan [B]literally[/B] called her out as a liar and I’m positive Gunn did too.

Exactly. She's a parasite.

Has it really taken off? I don't know how well Witcher has done, but I don't hear about it like I do other shows. I say keep him for the DCEU stuff, but any solo movies should go to a new guy ala The Batman.
