I'm going to be playing Squirrel Girl! And yes she has been confirmed as a playable character

I still remember when Liefeld did a two issue guest stint on Teen Titans a few years back. I looked at what was on the cover and looked over at the guy working at the comic shop and said, "We should be able to sue DC for defamation of character for this." And pointed at the little blurb on the cover that read "Because you demanded it.... Rob Liefeld"

This right here is DC's biggest hurdle they have for putting out any superhero movies, let alone a JLA one.

The movies that Marvel has been putting out from their own studio they have one exec producer who calls the shots (Iron man, Thor, Cap) It was Avi Arad, not sure who it is now. But he has the ability to tell anyone who thinks that it'd be neat if Thor could say things like "The Odinson doth feel pretty oh so pretty!" that they should shut up and get the hell out. even movies done by other studios (X-men, Spider-Man) they do have control to some extent to keep the executive meddling to a minimum. So far it seems that Disney has let them be on the creative side, they seem to understand "They've been making movies that pull in hundreds of millions of dollars... leave them alone and let them work" Something that the WB Exec have yet to figure out.

Of course the arguement comes up of "What about Dark Knight, that was awesome" yeah, but Nolan is a director that has enough clout that when some jr producer comes in saying things to justify his job like "I think the Batman needs more witty one liners to make him more friendly" Nolan has the ability to go "Shut up and get out!" it wouldn't surprise me that something like is in his contracts

on a similar note, it seems DC has their animated side figured out. But in that aspect, for whatever reason they're following the same arrangement that Marvel does with its live movies. They got one person who's in charge who knows what he's doing in Bruce Timm who has creative control over the whole process. I know I've read that supposedly WB has restructed their comic movie arm to put some DC guys in charge, but that's recent and who knows how much power they actually have. And until the WB can figure that out, they're going to continue having random execs poking their nose in and we end up demands like "Superman shouldn't fly. And he needs to fight a polar bear"

Just wanted to point out. That's a DC comics villain :-)

There has been a Celestial standing around San Fransisco for years actually. This goes waaaay back to Heroes Return, after the whole Heroes Reborn and Onslaught stuff. When all the heroes were brought back to the real earth the Celestials tried to recruit Franklin Richards. One of the Celestials was left behind, he's occasionally mentioned as the Dreaming Celestrial from time to time. But for the most part, with a couple mentions here and there, most of the writers have ignored that he's been standing there.

And not to go too far into detail, Sinister does... stuff. And that's what draws the other Celestial's attention.

You know, I see people say this about one of the big two or the other. (Playing a bit of devils advocate here). DC does this too. They very firmly established that recent retcons or continuity errors are from Superboy Prime punching reality. Which one is worsse?

(And just for the record I do feel that Joephisto needss to be beaten witin an inch of his life, taken to a hospital to get better, then beaten again)
