ew.com/movies/2019/05/29/tom-king-new-gods-script-ava-duvernay/?utm_source=smsshareOkay this has me excited. This may be the first DC movie I make an effort to see in theaters. I know a lot of comic fans have been down on King recently for Heroes in Crisis and his Batman run but his Mister Miracle maxiseries is one of my favorite books to come out in the last few years. If they can bring the relationship between Mister Miracle and Big Barda portrayed in that book to the big screen it would be amazing.

Nice.
MISTER MIRACLE was a dense (though enjoyable) book. Seems like a New Gods movie of today would have to be like that in order to truly stand out...
I believe it was said a while back (via "sources") that this New Gods movie was going to be rather Miracle/Barda centric. This seems to embolden that.

I wonder if this is why his Batman run is ending 15 issues early. Either way, good for him. I'm actually looking forward to this.

I'd preferred if he just buggered off, His Batman run is abysmal (Will NEVER forgive him for #50) & Heroes In Crisis is one of the worst DC events I've ever read (Only Amazons Attack & Futures End are worse IMO).
I just HOPE The New Gods movie isn't like "Female Furies", Dear God that comic is terrible.

I know DC isn't doing the cinematic universe anymore (and for good reason), but I'd have to guess that this is the movie that'd introduce Darkseid?

He would at the very least be teased, like seeing him from the back with his hands on his back. Or sitting in a sofa on Earth. One or the other. I would make a Mister Miracle movie first though, with Granny Goodness as the main villain here and telling the story of Scott and Barda getting together and escaping to Earth. Of course, I would make this the initial movie of the phase where Darkseid would invade Earth (for the first time at least) and would only happen in like the 3rd phase of my own version of the DCCU. The New Gods would come later. |

Love his Omega Men, Vision, and Mister Miracle books.
I've quite enjoyed his Batman run.
Haven't read Heroes in Crisis... which after reviews I think I'll be skipping the trade. Dunno yet.
So yeah his batting average with me has been quite good.
