DC Creators Speak about Action Comics 900 Citizenship

Walt

I found an article which adds to the debate of what DC did in it’s back up story by David Goyer.

Based purely on a character front, the fact that this story has generated the kind of “controversy” that it has does seem a little bit surprising as Superman has long seen himself as a servant to humanity rather than a tool of the U.S. government (Frank…

Walt

NBC came under fire when it released the first photo of Adrianne Palicki as Wonder Woman earlier this month. As THR.com Heat Vision blogger Borys Kit pointed out, fanboys said she looked “too trashy, too bad-porn-y,” Fox said her look wasn’t patriotic enough and even Lynda Carter, who played her in the ’70s TV series, weighed in with a big negative with glossy look. Los Angeles Times ran a poll asking readers whether the new version was a good representation of the Amazon princess character or more akin to a…

The All Star Superman Movie

Walt

Superman is probably the most notable hero and best know character of comic folklore. With all his changes from the debut in Action Comics #1 in 1939 he still remains the number one personification of a Super Hero.

While the American way may have changed over the years the expectation of Superman to somehow save the day by doing…
