Yeah. I'm afraid Hollywood will either whitewash him and make him too heroic or turn him into an outright villain.
I worry also for how the Comedian will be depicted. I would hate for him to be played as a Wolverine knock off.
So... who's keeping an eye out for the direct to DVD animated adaptation of Death of Superman, starring Adam Baldwin as the voice of Superman? Or the animated adaptation of DC: The New Frontier?
And the adaption of the Teen Titans story
The Judas Contract.
I'm definitely there on all three of them. I've never actually read the Judas Contract story in the comics, so I'm especially interested in that one. And New Frontier was just a marvelous take on DC's characters and I can't wait to see it animated.
I'm very much looking forward to these videos, especially Judas Contract. On the print side, I'm thinking that the new JLA series is really, REALLY good. I love Meltzer's work and the art is great.
What I know at this point about DC: New Frontier Animated Adaptation -
Kyle MacLachlan (spelling?) will voice Superman/Clark Kent
Lucy Lawless will voice Wonder Woman
Neil Patrick Harris will voice Barry Allen/Flash
David Boreanz/the Angel guy will voice Hal Jordan/Green Lantern
Brooke Shields will voice Carol Ferris
Aquaman, Batman and Martian Manhunter are also slated to appear, but no word on who's voicing them. It has been said that longtime Batman voice actor Kevin Conroy will not be voicing Batman here, because the animators want to emphasize that this is not part of the regular DCAU.
In "Superman: Doomsday" Superman/Clark Kent will be voiced by Adam Baldwin, Lois Lane will be voiced by Anne Heche, and Lex Luthor will be voiced by James Marsters.
Funny thing: Baldwin voiced Hal Jordan for a cameo on JLU while Neil Patrick Harris voiced Atom on JLU.
And to be honest I don't know jack diddly about what's going on with Teen Titans: Judas Contract.
I would give anything for an animated adaptation of Kingdom Come, greatest Superman story of all time. Live action Kingdom Come would be even better, but I'll settle for an animated adaptation. I'd also like to see animated adaptations of Emerald Twilight/Rebirth, origin stories of Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Captain Marvel, Knightfall/KnightQuest/KnightsEnd, even one of the great JSA stories. How about you guys?
