No, I tossed that one on the scrap pile. Nice to know who's going through my trash can.

DCAU's JL cartoon had a perfectly PC diverse team that made sense even if Aquaman wasn't in it. I'm not very familiar with Cyborg from the comics, just the Superfriends and Teen Titans cartoon versions and while the superfriends version was boring the TT is a favorite of mine. I like him a lot and his struggle to fit in however I don't see him with the likes of Superman or Batman, he needs to be in a smaller team. John Stewart is a boring Green Lantern, I like him more as a great hero from the past that is being referenced and idolized but when he's on the spotlight he comes off as boring, I always liked Kyle a lot more. John Stewart from the cartoon would have been the perfect choice for a GL, first of all it takes the mind off of the hated GL movie since this is totally a different GL just by looking at his skin color, his personality can be modified to be a lot different from the other characters and with him you meet your black hero quota. I also wish Flash was Wally West but I can live with Barry Allen, (just don't make Wally black).

I understand why Martian Manhunter is not in the movie though, his powers and origin are just a little too much out there. He's also the last survivor of his planet and totally has the same powers as superman, except he can also shapeshift, regenerate, self-sustenance, intangibility, invisibility, telepathy and telekinesis oh and of course he's a detective like Batman. Not to mention his costume is a little difficult to re-design (though I've seen good interpretations of it). My first exposure to him was in the JL cartoon and I had no idea who he was or why he was there instead of Aquaman. While I knew nothing of Hawkgirl at least I knew Hawkman was a superhero but this green guy was totally new and unappealing to me. I learned to like him and a lot. When he is written he is easily one of the best superheroes that DC has but it can be difficult for him to be portrayed on film, especially one that is already overstuffed with characters, it's not the same to have a bunch of superheroes being met for the first time if we already know vaguely who they are than also adding this totally new hero who is already too complex. I'd love to see him eventually though. Not having Ant-Man(Pymm) and Wasp in the Avengers movie was a bigger sign of disrispect towards history though.

Cyborg is, pretty terrible, let's be real. If I want representation, I want GL. MM should always be on the team.

They've been pushing Cyborg and Aquaman pretty hard since 2011, so I was expecting nothing less.

Why do you bring up your husband in almost all your posts?

Because married people spend most of their time together. Why shouldn't she?

I mention my wife and/or kids on a not-infrequent basis...

I actually love my babies. So it's really not amusing to see you make a joke a sh*tton of people have already made.
Besides, I doubt they're even tasty.

Now now, Amar. If I can make jokes about eating puppies, I can make jokes about eating shrimp.

...

I just made things worse, didn't I?
