    As for tv shows I think M.A.N.T.I.S. was the first black tv superhero show from 1990's.

    There was a latino superhero tv show awhile ago from america.
    # Dark Angel (Maxine "Max" Guevara, portrayed by Jessica Alba).


    There are some from latino superhero shows from spain or latin america or both.
    One example.
    Los únicos
    Los únicos (Spanish: "The uniques") is a 2011 Argentine superhero live-action television series aired by El Trece in the prime time. The "uniques" are a superhero team working as a covert operation unit. Main actors are Arnaldo André, Mariano Martínez and Griselda Siciliani, the two main supervillains are played by Favio Posca and Carlos Belloso.
    Premise
    Unlike most productions by Pol-ka, Los únicos is not a telenovela featuring common people or a vengeance plot. Instead, it is a crime fiction comedy with metafictional elements. As such, it avoids the usual constrains of the plots of the aforementioned genres. The plot is influenced by the X-Men film series, Heroes and Sky High.

    The are others latino superhero shows as well.

    i don't see how giving john stewart a co-lead in the next GL movie is "them making you want to forget" him.

    if anything, they've brought john stewart into the dceu to SAVE the gl brand in movies. since hal jordan's solo almost killed it completely.

    The Hal Jordan character had as much to do with "almost killing" the GL brand, as Reed Richards or Ben Grimm had with the way the 3 FF movies turned out. The Green Lantern brand doesn't need a specific character to "save" it, what it needs is people who understand what the property's appeal is about and how to properly utilize it on the silver screen. And I'm not sure if David Goyer and Geoff Johns are those people.

    You're right. If nothing else, Johns' involvement probably guarantees the movie will at least get made.

    Whichever GL had been the star of the movie, it wouldn't have changed the script, direction, CGI, etc. It still would have been assailed critically. Now if the movie had been received favorably, but still bombed, then maybe not having John in the film could have been a factor.

    I'm honestly not sure what in Hollywood translates to box office success anymore. The second Hulk movie was much better received than the first, yet still wasn't that financially successful, and Hulk is a huge character, way bigger than Green Lantern ever was or will be. Meanwhile crap like Transformers or even the latest chapters of Pirates of the Caribbean still make money out the ass. Hell, look at those goofy Resident Evil films, they were trashed since the very start and still made money every single time. Is Milla Jovovich supposed to be a name draw? Is critical reception really that significant anymore. Maybe marketing is more important now? I mean good reviews certainly helped Wonder Woman and bad reviews obviously had hugely negative impact on BvS' performance, but in the grand scheme of things is that really as important at this point, or mostly just depends on the property Hollywood decides to tackle. If Black Panther for some reason gets bad word of mouth, would it have any impact on its BO at all? I think this would be the type of film people would go see no matter what.

    If a film gives the audience what it wants (especially if the audience is familiar with the character(s) in the first place), it can succeed without good reviews. Having said that, I don't know what the deal was with The Incredible Hulk (I liked both films, FWIW).

    Black Panther? I have a feeling it will make money regardless of the reviews.

    Still, that's THE guy you'd want spearheading a second shot at a movie, especially since this time his producer role would mean something. It's like saying, "I don't know if this Colonel Sanders guy is the one we need to fry chicken".

    Like I said before, with Johns at the helm of the DCEU, we know the movie would at least get made, but it doesn't guarantee it would actually be good. Maybe my attitude is also based on my utter contempt towards WB for their treatment of the GL property.

    I get if you do not like it, but I mean they have been carrying 2 books since the return and was running 4 at once at one point. Clearly the direction he took it was a success with many people. They would be crazy not to use his stuff as the base of the film.
