Marvel TV

[The Sevenshot Kid]

I'm sure quite a few of you are aware that Marvel is developing some comics into TV shows. Jessica Jones (http://splashpage.mtv.com/2010/12/17/twilight-aka-jessica-jones-marvel-tv/) is getting her own show and the Hulk (http://splashpage.mtv.com/2010/10/15/hulk-tv-series-abc-cloak-and-dagger-abc-family/) is heading back to the small screen. I think it's kind of cool that Marvel is starting to stop looking towards movies as their only other way of branching out into other media. There's a chance that we might get some pretty decent material.

What I'm not happy about is that we aren't being given a Law and Order: Hell's Kitchen. Are you guys excited to know Marvel's developing some comics into shows or do you think they aren't looking at the right stuff?

You forgot to mention Cloak & Dagger (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloak_and_Dagger_%28comics%29), which is off hand mentioned in the Hulk (http://splashpage.mtv.com/2010/10/15/hulk-tv-series-abc-cloak-and-dagger-abc-family/) article. Of course, they don't describe the duo at all, so I don't blame you for missing them.

I can't say *WHY* they're getting a show, after looking at the Wiki page, since they look like a bunch of hero nobodies, that nobody cares about. But this IS ABC family we're talking about, so I can somewhat understand it.

Cloak & Dagger?

I fear ABC's ability to do justice to anything super hero related, so who knows if the Hulk will be decent. However, out of the ones they are planning to adapt, I see a few that would be quite easy, especially The Punisher (though it would have to be on FOX or NBC to even have a chance of being decent).

I may be wrong, but I thought Cloak and Dagger were some of the more violent good guys... but like I said, I could be well off with that.

I will forever (Probably a week or two) hate Disney/Marvel for canceling yet another show (Spectacular Spider-man) that pleasantly surprised me as I started to get into it.

Fuck them for scrapping Spectacular for a new Spider-Man cartoon. Why on earth couldn't they have just let it get past two seasons instead of just starting over again?

I get back to you with a witty answer once I know more about this replacement Spidy show.

Whatever it is, It can only hope to be at best some of the Post-Clay-face episodes of "The Batman" to Spectacular's "Batman:TAS" and at worst, all the other episodes of The Batman.

Anybody catch the new Avenger's Cartoon? Thought it was pretty much not fun. I did enjoy the Young Justice Premiere though.

I kind of enjoyed the new avengers cartoon.

Maybe it's just me. It seems seriously boring and very lifeless. I sense they are somehow trying to channel Bruce Timm's work in both style and scope but just really not making it work well for some reason.
