Wow, well I like the current Captain Marvel, I'm a huge fan of Carol Danvers and I'm really looking forward to Enemy Within. And evidently Scott Hepburn is the new artist.
I love this review, and the fact you love a comic called G-Man. It's like how my name is Xavier, so I love X-Men and root for all sports teams that are called Xavier (e.g. NCAA basketball). lol :)
I'm sorry but Justice League is already on to a massive loser compared to the Avengers. Yes, the Batman movies under Chris Nolan were amazing, but there is never going to be any carry over from that to Justice League. Is Christian Bale going to be in Justice League? I don't think so. And sure, the new Superman movie may be great, but Green Lantern was relatively speaking a bomb, and thus it will be a big drag if they try to force Ryan Reynolds on the movie-going public again. And then the idea of just casually dropping big name like Wonder Woman in there, plus lesser known characters like Aquaman and Flash without any prior movie success? No. It's just laughable. Marvel got lucky with three solid introductions to Iron Man, Thor and Captain America, none of which previously came close to DC's characters, but after making great movies and making sure the same actors came over to the Avengers was just perfect. DC has Batman (yes, but likely no continuity there), Superman (probably the most likely to carry through to Justice League) and Wonder Woman (a character that Hollywood has absolutely no idea how to do). So you're hobbled from the start. Sorry DC, don't even try.
DC has one solid franchise going right now: Batman. And neither Bale nor Nolan will be anywhere near Justice League, so I'm concerned that movie will be seriously inferior to Avengers. Marvel spent a lot of time and effort crafting and building up to that movie and it was worth it. DC had a troubling lack of success in Green Lantern. If Superman is any good and if they somehow manage to launch Wonder Woman we shall see if they can turn it around.
I would disagree with the entire premise of the article if you're saying that 'not one stitch has changed' between original WW and now, and saying that in contrast Superman and Batman's costumes are 'completely different'. This is totally not true. Now, if you're saying it's wrong for fans to obstruct a more major change to WW's costume by moving her from bare legs to leggings/trousers/pants, sure that would have been a significant structural change to her appearance and maybe fans should be more accepting of change. But really, saying that Batman and Superman have totally changed their looks and so should WW is just factually incorrect. They haven't. Call me when they lose their capes or move to wearing shorts instead of fully covered legs plus boots.
Skrull Ms Marvel looks great, as does Spider-Woman, and kudos to the Black Widow towards the end with the orange hair. If you can get into a leather suit like that, all credit to you. She looks too nice to be Natasha though.
