OMAC is another character that I am hoping will make an appearance on DC's Legends of Tomorrow. For a time travelling show, they haven't spent much time going to the future and I would like to see more of that. Maybe they can bring the already established Jonah Hex with them so they can do a riff on his futuristic Hex series.
I would love to see Jonah Hex join the full-time cast of Legends. And I agree that an OMAC episode would be awesome. A Kamandi episode (or two-parter) would be even better.
ReplyDeleteMaybe a Kamandi episode could have some sort of reference to Captain Carrot... (Kamandi's anthropomorphic animals and the denizens of Captain Carrot's world look pretty similar!).
ReplyDeleteI doubt Legends has the budget, but I'd love to see at least a partially-animated episode of Legends meeting CC & the Justa Lotta Animals! I wonder which Legend has a secret furry fetish?
ReplyDeleteI find Legends of Tomorrow to be the least enjoyable of the CW DC shows. The stories aren't very good and they have gradually lost the best characters. I think to fix it they should add a few more characters (maybe Booster Gold, The Creeper, and Power Girl). They should also lean it more towards comedy like the Giffin Bwahahaha Justice League and embrace that this is a team of losers.
ReplyDelete@Poochy--can't agree with that. Supergirl is more soaper than super, and the Flash can't pick a tone and stick with it. Maybe the upcoming season with XS will get them back on track, maybe it won't--but LoT is a lot more self-aware, and that's fun.
ReplyDeleteI do agree that having Booster Gold and Jonah Hex joining the Legends on their travels would be great fun. Booster would fit with them just right, and a connection to Jonah's stay in the distant future would be a great addition to the Arrowverse's lore.
ReplyDeleteI also like the idea of meeting Kamandi, with plenty of Captain Carrot Easter Eggs (appropriate, of course, since he is a rabbit). The anthropomorphic animals can be done simply enough with simple prosthetics and/or mocap.
@Jay: Mick.
Conversely, Legends of Tomorrow is my favorite Arrowverse show by a W I D E margin. I would love to see an animated episode guest staring the Zoo Crew. I also think that Booster Gold would fit right in. I don't think Power Girl would work because her power set would dominate and throw off the balance of the team. And while I'm a big fan of the Creeper, I don't think that he is right for this particular team. In general, I would like to see more guest stars from DC's past like the Unknown Soldier, Anthro, the Blackhawks, Viking Prince and Tomahawk.
ReplyDeleteDear Ross: didn't you once do a team up with Jonah Hex leading a team of 19th century mutants called "The Hex Men?"
ReplyDeleteIf not; how about one day depicting same?
How about Zoo Crew meeting the Legion of Super-Pets (including Zabu and Redwing)?
ReplyDelete@Carycomic: Zabu and Redwing are already committed to the Animal Avengers.
ReplyDelete@my namesake: I think you mean "The Pet Avengers."
ReplyDelete@Anonymous: tomato/potato.
ReplyDeleteOn the topic of favorite Arrowverse shows, mine's The Flash. It's all just a matter of personal taste; I don't dislike any of them (though last season's finale on Legends of Tomorrow was a bit too over-the-top silly even for me).
ReplyDelete@Cary: The Zoo Crew and Legion of Super-Pets are both DC entities, so you should write to them. (And I think they should -- and just might -- do it!)
I meant Zoo Crew and the Pet Avengers being shown teaming up, here, courtesy of our host. :-)
ReplyDelete@Anon #2: You're thinking of the Amalgam title, "Generation Hex." It was a real comic book, so you can actually find it and read it if you want to!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Bob. :-)
ReplyDelete@James Hawk III, Batman-13, & Poochy: The whole Arrowverse ultimately came to suck. Case closed, never to be re-opened..
