Plz do. Id pay money to watch that. Lol.

So I Star watching DC Superhero Girls and I find it kind of funny their version of Lex Luthor is going for the young modern age entrepreneur which is kinda what they tried to do in Dawn of Justice but here it still feels like Lex.  
Now people might zero in on this Lex starting out as bald as the reason for that but I’m gonna say it’s actually because he has the confident swagger you’d expect a Lex to have instead of a jibbering socially awkward chipmunk that shoves candy into a Congressman’s mouth with his fingers.

Listening to Cee Lo Green’s fuck you after knowing he roofied a girl is uh, weird to say the least

Today I found out that Nickelodeon has an annual Smash bros tournament
 

Jenny as Megaman is pretty righteous

Was it ever stated which Hulk is the one that ends up as Maestro?

@Dustcan  
the green one.

@Angrybrony
 
I’unno man. Joe’s opinion on puny humans isn’t too far off from Maestro’s.

you know i’d actually love it if maestro was a big mcu villein.

@Angrybrony  
I want Hulk to be relevant again. Like, where the Incredible Hulk?

@Scrabbleman
 
He got pushed aside for the Dabbing Hulk.
 
bleh

@Angrybrony  
would need a new Hulk solo just set up that

@Background Pony #29E8
 
Shame that won’t happen because of Universal…

They ever settle on what exactly Professor Hulk is? He’s been retconned a few times, so is he all/most of the Hulks merged into a single personality, or is he another unrelated split personality rattling around Banner’s subconscious?

so Ms. Marvel is getting a show on Disney+
 
@Dustcan  
I call him Doc Green

@Background Pony #29E8  
 
my dick is so fucking hard right now it could mine for diamonds.

@Angrybrony  
I still think she deserved a full on movie debut,

@Thanotos Omega  
a show means will get way more kamala then we would get from a movie tho.

@Angrybrony  
but it also means a lower budget and less exposure, also way smaller chance of the crossovers that Kamala makes so wonderful,

@Thanotos Omega
 
On the other hand, Disney+ Marvel characters are also far more likely to appear in the movies since they’re directly produced by Marvel Studios rather than their television and animation department.

@Jarkes  
Marvel Television will have series on Disney+ too there just yet to be announced

Meanwhile they’re apparently going to have a bunch of Disney Channel shows and movies on there at launch… So naturally most of it is just everything from the past 10-15 years and not any of their 80’s and 90’s classics. Because it’s not like most of those are basically unavailable in a complete form… Oh wait.

@Jarkes  
Problem you run into is that not everyone is going to be able to see them, and even the ones that do are going to have different viewing experiences. Either you ignore them, making it so anyone who’s not seen them isn’t lost but pissing off those who did watch, you fully integrate it, which pleases those who did watch it but leaves those that didn’t confused, or you waste time explaining who these characters are constantly, interrupting the flow for non viewer and only getting a base level of a character for those that do.
 
At a certain point you run into the issue comic books have, which is an excess amount of backstory that locks people out of the world. This is why there are so many reboots and retcons, it’s to simplify the world back to a more universal cultural basis and allow new members to join in

breaking news Moon Knight is also getting a Disney+ show
