Superman Villains Appreciation 2021

Heh I am curious as to what put him in the chair. It might have been Clark’s fault going off that page where he superhero lands with red eyes. And he certainly hasn’t had a problem with beating the hell out of Manchester before...

To be fair, most of us wouldn't do better after going through nicotine withdrawal while in the form of a dairy cow.

Something tells him being a cow will be the reason for his sorry state

[Vordan]

Never understood the appeal of Funko Pops myself

[Thor-Ul]

‘The hell, why does Brainiac from Six Flags look like a mutated Oliver Queen?

That was his look around the 90s. Goatees were trendy then.

[Thor-Ul]

It might be Erndine Ze-Da, who was Xa-Du's wife in pre-Crisis comics

Even in the Phantom Zone, psychotic evil monsters can find love and someone who can share their passion for killing and destroying innocent people and hate Superman.
How cute.

I kinda like the cape, but otherwise he looked too much like Leader over at Marvel for my taste.

Some of them did that BEFORE getting banished, and just stayed together while banished.

I am not a big fan of "media Synergy", but in this case, I would approve this look to migrate to comics.

[Gaius]

And unmasked variant for you weirdos with an Idris Elba collection.

Already has! Bloodsport is popping up in the current Suicide Squad run and he’ll be wearing the movie outfit. I totally agree, I vastly prefer the movie suit over the “classic” Bloodsport look, so this is one bit of movie synergy I don’t mind at all. I do hope they don’t make him British and have a daughter though lol, I prefer keeping comic Bloodsport’s motives tied to his brother. Kind of wish his brother being in the hospital or something and needing aid is how Waller blackmailed Bloodsport into joining in the movie but oh well.

Gunn considered Livewire for The Suicide Squad and didn’t rule her out for any future films: https://twitter.com/jamesgunn/status...103461893?s=21

I’d be happy to see her on the Squad, her and Bloodsport working together would be cool, and Gunn at least wouldn’t erase the Superman ties. We’ll probably get more Superman villains in Suicide Squad movies than we ever will in Superman movies

It's still the height of absurdity that Bloodsport got to be on a live-action movie before Brainiac did, but I'll take what I can.

I saw that (read SS#5 preview) and the bio fo Bob has not been changed that much, (Still full all-american and brother worshiper) and maybe it seems he got a power upgrade upgrade. The Vietnam angle I suppose it will be dropped.

Alas there’s plenty of other disastrous American wars from abroad that are more recent for them to choose from, or they can just make one up like Marvel’s “Siancong” War. Glad they’re keeping the focus on the brother!
