I still don’t think Cyborg belongs in the JL. He should be a Teen Titan, like he used to be, but they had to change that in the New 52 because reasons.

Seconding. Martian Manhunter should be part of the Justice League. He’s been a charter member in over a dozen iterations.

Somehow I got the impression that this is being looked at. I understand why they went for more well known heroes first but yeah, he deserves inclusion up front.

In what universe is Cyborg more well known than Martian Manhunter outside of comic fandom?

I thought Ben Affleck was pretty great in Gigli.

That’s one of my favorite films. I think that his previous role in Daredevil really sold the execs over at DC Comics though. Having someone with experience in the superhero genre is important to consider when casting.

I’m guessing Cyborg’s inclusion is aimed at a broader audience … Teen Titan and SHIELD fans alike.

I’ve never heard of Martian Manhunter.

I’m not sure if I’ve heard of Cyborg.

The Justice League TV shows were just as, if not more, successful than Teen Titans. Also, SHIELD?

Yes, Cyborg showed up in SHIELD.

Unless you’re talking about this guy, SHIELD is Marvel, not DC. If you are referring to Marvel’s SHIELD show, that was Deathlok.

My bad, you’re right, sorry. I got mixed up.
