The problem with using Val Zod is I just dont see JJ and Coates giving us a Val Zod who is banging a hot Blonde with big tits ala Power Girl so it doesnt quite work for me.

Calvin Ellis seems more Coates aisle.

lol. That's another reason why I think they'll go for Calvin Ellis. Interracial is not a part of the "woke movement". You can't really incorporate the racial narrative with Val-Zod because his story is kind of post-racial.

Well also when he shows up on Earth 2 its cause the Earth is under assault from Alien Invaders and a bunch of Heroes got massacred kinda does good things for Human Unity.

Apparently this black female SJW writer was fired off Superman and Lois and they rejected her woke story points. No wonder it was so good.

LOL, I was actually surprised with how well they nailed "Superman & Lois" pilot. Looks like the producers took it serious.

I fucking hate Coates, he ruined the Black Panther comics....Anti SJWS will eat well for a long time.

Also we got a Black Superman and a Latina Supergirl....guess they wont be related unless one is adopted lol.

A lot folks (black & white comicbook fans) hate Ta-Nehisi Coates & Roxane Gay's Black Panther/Wakanda comicbook runs because they heavily pushed & prompted wokeness in their runs.

If JJ had brought on John Ridley instead of Coates, Ridley would definitely have the balls to do it, LOL

I had this idea for a Marvel ripoff of the Big Bang where a Kree spacecraft gets blown up near Earth in battle with a Skrull spaceship. The power core falls to Earth and crashes in the hood, and the radiation starts giving random powers to the hoodlums and gangs. Same concept as Blood Syndicate only super-bloodthirsty i.e. these dudes become Avengers-level threats, straight cop-killing, bank robbing etc. Just think if Colossus was a thug nikka. Super strong and bulletproof. And there was a few hundred like him with more being born everyday. I might have to write this shit up LOL!

Do it. Could lead to something. You never know.

Superman and Lois was actually well done. They let Superman be Superman, then gave him modern problems to react to. But, let’s be honest, all they really did was use Black Lightning’s set up as a template and upped the production budget. Still good though.

I did think the shoulders on the suit were too much. Too far out of proportion and cheapened the look of it. And the villain’s acting isn’t as good as the rest of the cast. But, those are small gripes. Especially, given that it’s on the CW.

I think I’m going to enjoy these first two seasons before “the cliff” comes.

Yeah I finally got around to seeing it. It reminds me of the first season of Supergirl and that short span around season 3 & 4 where they just let her be Supergirl. Took political wokeness out of it.

Wokeness is not the issue.

Its twofold...Wakanda is not Afro Futuristic....Coates basically writes Wakanda as bunch of genocidal imperialist who wiped out the previous inhabitants. While treating the country mostly like its some sterootypical third world african country with Boko Haram types starting up rape camps. He also does a bunch of retcons to the Gods and Mythology.

On the character front his T'Challa is in indecisive wimp who constantly screws up and loses most of his fights and never uses his brains. His Shuri is a bitch whose powers oscillate from Magic to Science with no logic. Their mother is fine with rape of females. He retcons Storm into a Wakandan Goddess who he dotes on. Basically he really wants to write X-men (which makes sense given his politics) but they don't want him.

Oh okay. Thanks for breaking it down for me what you mean. Because I see people point to many things so it gets subjective at times.

God please let this franchise die. It's beyond over.

Most of done well in the ratings.

Though I suppose I can kinda see what that black female writer who left/got fired for was talking about. We have two black characters of note...one is a Supervillain and the other is a Bully. Not exactly balanced Rep.

Haven't seen the subsequent eps yet, but I'd say it's well-rounded that the black guy can be the bad guy. And having had a black bully when I was a kid, I can attest that they exist. Firing the woke chick writer was the best move in the long run. All the hot shows that people are raving about are hot because they ditched the leftist LGBTQ, feminist, and forced diversity propaganda in favor of a strong narrative with characters who JUST HAPPEN TO BE minorities and women i.e. The Expanse, The Mandalorian, and WandaVision. Hell, there was an all-wahmen squad in the last episode of The Mando and I didn't even notice because Luke came back.
