All manner of scifi/fantasy/nerdness: Roleplaying, comic books, .... okay, so mainly just RPGs & comic books. And Dr. Who. And Firefly. And comic books. And role-playing games. And Community. And Buffy the Vampire Slayer. And comic books. And RPGs. And Avengers. And RPGS. And whatever else amuses me today...

A Question, Please
I’m curious about something.
How many of you came to the DC or Marvel universes initially through either the films, or animated series?
Did you fall in love with superheroes through comics, or was your first real exposure to them from other media?
And finally, specifically, does your love for a certain character or team stem in any way from film or animation, by which I mean, are you a Batman or X-men fan, for example, at least partially due to the films or cartoons?
This is for a reason…thanks!
Growing up in the ’80s, my parents felt that comic books had gotten too dark and gritty, not appropriate for a young reader. My grandparents would give me older comic books here and there that were “approved” by my parents, but they were mostly non-Superhero books (Richie Rich, etc), or if I got a superhero comic it was only an issue here or there, no complete story lines and not enough to really “get into” comic books.
Then
Okay, so obviously a Wonder Woman movie needs to be top priority…
… but after that, how soon can we get a Flash movie where Linda Park plays Linda Park?
The Flash always did have a “special” relationship with his Rogue’s Gallery.
I just watched this yesterday
Best show, ever.
He was so genuinely concerned about their mental health and recovery. He would ask about their treatments and meds. I don’t understand why people don’t love Wally more. He’s a far better hero than most.

“I feel that the New 52 Barry stole Wally West’s personality.”
They were never really that different to begin with. Barry has always been the nice guy. Wally went through a phase of being a lady’s man but by the end of his run, he was a family man like Barry. That’s why I don’t understand Barry Allen hate. They were never really that different. And even if people are basing their interpretations of Wally’s personality on JLU and YJ, Barry Allen in the New 52 is not the lady’s man chauvinist that Wally is portrayed as.
Stop hating on Barry Allen just because he isn’t Wally West.
No Barry hate here, but I do prefer Wally. Wally always felt more “fun” to me. He was silly, but he got the job done. He was a halfway point between Barry’s “law-and-order” no-nonsense and Bart’s goofiness.
I miss Wally, but I don’t blame Barry for it.
no flash
you don’t need my permission

The Flash Family
Those Who Ride The Lightning
I miss them all so much. I’m kinda disgruntled this is labeled as “The Family” but completely leaves out the civillians: Iris, Linda, Joan…they’re as much part of the family as “The Tornado Twins.”
But more importantly, only 2 of these characters have survived into the DCnU.
WHY DC?! WWWHHHHYYYYY?!?!?!?!
