I'm a huge Superman fan. Let me start off by saying that. I'm 26 years old and it wasn't until last year I had watched the first two Christopher Reeves Superman movies. And I hated them. The "zanyness" and "camp" of them, didn't read fun or enjoyable at all. It read as dated and corny, and stupid. Gene Hackman was God awful as Lex, though Margot Kidder and Christopher Reeves were both really good in their roles.

I never did bother with the third or fourth ones, as I heard nothing but bad things. I saw Returns in theaters and... the less said about that, the better.

Man of Steel however, blew me away. I thought it was amazing. And I can't believe every critic I enjoy, be it Brad Jones, Doug Walker, Noah Antwiler, and now Tony were displeased. My Batman obsessed, and biased friend even admitted liking Man of Steel more than any Batman movie she's seen.

I think this movie may be my favorite comic book fan of all time, outside of The Crow.

That. Is. Freakin'. Awesome. My favorite Lantern alongside Gardner.

Hey, at least I picked Marvel for SOMETHING. Besides, Cannonball is now an Avenger, so this is kinda making up for choosing Batman Family over the X-Men.

I don't know if this is supposed to be the current Teen Titans or just the Teen Titans in general. But if it's the latter, then I need to go with Wally West. TT it is.

This is by far the most difficult for me. But seeing as how the X-men is a revolving door of characters, it was easier for me to pick the rather stable and consistent Batman Family. Sorry Cannonball. =(

Flash is my favorite super hero. Whatever it takes for him to win.

So the "bad guys" are Supes, WW, and Flash.

I didn't really get that from the trailer. I just kinda feel like they are all going a little bit more "all out". Though you could be totally right. As a HUGE Flash fan, I'd love to see him as a villain.

"They already have that... it's called Reverse-Flash". Shut up.

I'm going to give this an shot out of sheer curiousity. Quite frankly if we the audience don't give unusual choices a chance the comic book industry is going to further disintegrate. If you want to end up with another 16 books a month featuring Wolverine and Batman continue to never give something new or something obscure a chance readers!

That was kind of blunt but it really is true.

Well said. I couldn't agree more. And yet... I'm a hypocrite. I don't really buy any comics outside of the main flagship titles other than Talon and Demon Knights and if you consider it "unusual", Earth 2. I'm part of the problem, but I acknowledge it. I'm considering giving Vibe a shot, but realistically, I probably won't. Mostly due to financial reasons though, not disinterest.

I sure do love Alfred's Santa hat.
