Fans had to remind J.M. DeMatteis about his contributions recognized in the Black Adam credits.

 

So, I'm all for comics creators getting as much credit as possible with a wider audience.  But Bob Haney & Jim Aparo?  I'm struggling to think of what they've done with these characters apart from a single Hawkman appearance in Brave & Bold 139?  What about Walt Simonson & Marty Pasko, who did that memorable Dr. Fate First Issue Special story that pretty much defined the character for the 1970s?

And Ramona Fradon?  

:idea:  Unless...

Spoiler

Is Metamorpho the surprise character intro in this film?  hm

I believe you are on to something. Good eye. Why else would RF be included?  Unless of course it’s Brenda Starr, Reporter.

is this Mini-Hawkman? 

Yeah, the proportions look off.  Plus it is just a bad looking picture/poster.

I keep coming back to this...have Jim Lee draw the movie poster!  It would be an instant collector piece and great advertising.

 

***Something about this movie seems off (I can't put my finger on it)

Black Adam seems like a movie where it is building up The Rock brand.  I like Duane Johnson.  He seems like a genuinely good dude from all I've read about him.  I think it is the fact that he's pushing the movie as he's the savior of the DCEU...Black Adam is the new apex of power, he made Henry Cavil possible, etc.  If Black Adam does save the DCEU then all the credit goes his way.  But if it doesn't...(shrug)

Here's the defense of Ezra Miller...I really liked his introduction in the Justice League when Bruce Wayne was recruiting him.  Great scene and I really felt sorry for him when he said "I need friends"...

***He was/is a great Flash

This is the part where I cry because the town I'm staying in doesn't have a cinema. I don't know when I'll get to see it. 

:cry:
