In regards to Thom’s thought on a superman game i think it would be need to be more grandiose than the arkham games.. so it would have to be a bit more galactic.. I look at it as we start out with superman on Earth.. uber powers does everything you expect him to do.. no damage from minions but can get a game over if someone dies.

Soon after Vandal Savage or Darksied teleports superman to a planet with a red sun.. Superman must stop him as he gets weaker and weaker throughout the game.. it could be a War World story line or some time a game so he gets a reward of some “yellow sun radiation” as he accomplishes some tasks..

Your cameos would end up being the Lobo, Lantern Corps, and other space fairing DC IP..

Cable should be played Charlie Hunnam if they show him as being young http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0402271/?ref_=tt_cl_t1 I thought he did pretty damn well in Pacific Rim but I also agree about Stephen Lang for the older group..

As for Bob’s question, I have written several fan fictions in the past… but my best graphic novel treatment I have come up uses all sorts of goodies from Lovecraftian lore. I can show it to you guys sometime if you want..

PS JC you totally missed me I almost pelvic thrust (after being bumped into) Michelle Rodriguez into a pool at a house party we were having in Hollywood. Funniest/most awkward moment of my life! She is a pretty awesome person IRL; really chilled out. Sadly I missed Ellen Page by 30 minutes..
