eh... Cyclops was being tarnished for years before the Inhumans push happened. Also the Inhumans push was ALWAYS overblown. They had 1 or 2 books when the mutants still had like 20. The only difference is characters like Ms. Marvel and Moongirl who would have been mutants were changed to Inhumans instead, which honestly isn't that big of a deal and Marvel needed to lean back from the whatever they're a mutant origin for everyone anyway. See I'm one of those weird people who preferred Cyclops as the guy who would do anything to save his species, much like Magento. Dude made the decisions that no one wanted to make for awhile. Then all the sudden he was vilified by everyone and unceremoniously killed off out of no where. So dumb He should have been vilified for some of the shit they had him pull.

Posting Quentin doesn't help your stance. Sorry Wolverine and the X-Men was such a fun comic and QQ was such a big part of that for me. Like I said though I'm full of unpopular opinions when it comes to X-Men and more importantly Cyclops. Dude, along with the Phoenix Five (stupid story aside), saved the world at one point and made it better and stupid Avengers had to get in the way lol. Honestly though I kinda enjoyed Bendis's X-Men run with Scott, ridiculous new recruits and rogue X-Men team and all.

my point was QQ is a massive douche with a massive superiority complex so of course he'd say Cyclops was right... Not to mention Cyclops killed Xavier... and drained Emma's power... and they "saved" the world by taking it over... and the Phoenix power was growing and that being on earth for long amount of time has always ended poorly. Also Scott being like Magneto is really f***ing dumb when his father and mentor is Xavier the antithesis of Magneto. But that's not really what this thread is for.

Seriously it's like they saw the reaction to Titans trailers and decided hey lets actually spend money on this series.

I enjoyed Doom Patrols appearance in Titans so I look forward to this.

Just finished the pilot. I thought it was tremendous. Brendan Fraser was a standout, despite seeing his face very little. His vocal performance feels so genuine.
Also, the humor is top notch. Incredibly funny stuff.

Really liked the pilot, DC honestly does live action series so well. I know very little about Doom Patrol so I am going in basically blind

I don’t feel like reading two pages of this, but the company behind a remarkably unsuccessful shared universe is starting their own streaming service? Man, how couldn’t this go well.

The pilot was great. Very funny, the characters were all likeable and sympathetic and the acting was great.
I know zero about Doom Patrol so going into the series completely blind, but yeah, very strong start. Given the effects and the great cast, it looks like the series has got a big budget. Fraser was great, manages to make a fairly monotone, robotic voice and zero facial expressions (since he's a robot) an emotional performance.

Wait Cyborg is on the Doom Patrol? Why? He's got a very Doom Patrol-style origin. The team tends to be freaks even by superhero standards. Like, yes, the purist in me would much rather Garfield Logan on the show, but Victor's got a pretty calamitous origin, too.

But Robot man is the muscles while cyborg is brains and brawn with hopefully the ability to be a walking weapon
