Swamp Thing Vs. The Punisher

 


The recent Swamp Thing series was imperfect - the pacing was pretty slow and some of the performances veered over to the cheesy side - but I still don't believe it deserved to be cancelled so abruptly.  Swamp Thing himself was realized well and the show seemed to be finding its footing and building to some interesting storylines by the final episode.  The sets have been destroyed and talent as moved on to other projects, so the show will not be returning.  Swamp Thing may well be a part of the upcoming HBO Max Justice League Dark series, it will be interesting to see if it will be a new iteration of the muck monster or a continuation of the previous show.

Challengers of the Unknown and The Thing in "Stranger Thing!"



The Challengers of the Unknown are another group that I would love to see show up on DC's Legends of Tomorrow, or anywhere really.  I am surprised that they've never made it into any of DC's various shows, live action or animated.  They might be somewhere in the background in Justice League: The New Frontier, but I would have to go back and check.

The Thing first met The Challengers way back in 2011, in a MTIO Lost Issue...

Bouncing Boy and Speedball



I remember Bouncing Boy standing out to me among his many Legion of Super-Heroes teammates,  Even when he was not using his bouncing powers, he was illustrated as not having the typical super-heroic physique.  Indeed, he looked like he could stand to lose a few pounds!  It was nice to be reminded that heroes came in all shapes and sizes.
