Quite the glo up… has anyone seen The Suicide Squad movie? How is Bloodsport’s characterization in it? Was he properly updated well enough that we could understand why this guy would be a Superman enemy? He seemed like kind of a nutcase from what I’ve seen of him in older comics. I kind of want to watch the movie based on the costume alone. And it’s funny, as I normally detest movies toning down costumes for realism’s sake… but methinks this does things better. (I mean you can’t go anywhere but upwards from a red mask with a black tank top, a bandolier, and camo pants…
Bloodsport is fantastic, definitely one of the standouts of the movie. Not much about his relationship with Superman besides him putting Superman in the hospital however (probably because they couldn’t get Cavill). He has a lot of cool guns and gadgets in TSS. Personally been hoping we get a Black Label Superman book that retells the story of Superman and Bloodsport’s first meeting in modern continuity.
And yeah I totally prefer his movie costume over his comic costume as well

No clue if Venditti was inspired by Morrison’s take, but he’s namedropped Morrison as a personal favorite of his so I think it’s likely, but I like the idea of Brainiac as someone who is a “Last Son” as well, and is determined to never let what happened to Colu happen to anyone else. Brainiac wanting to “save” worlds as well, just doing it by putting them in stasis is actually a pretty cool way to make him a deeper foil to Superman.
