I liked Flashpoint Aquaman a lot, for a beefcake musclehead he had some depth. He fell in love with Wonder Woman who wasn't his wife. His wife finds out fights Wonder Woman and dies. Then Aquaman still loves Wonder Woman, but for diplomatic reasons had to go against her and pretty much ends up souless in the process.

As opposed to normal Aquaman, he's king of the ocean and he does good things. The guy can't even keep a TV show going, Green Arrow can keep a show going! And he's not even bigtime mainstream.

Sometimes I wish that other heroes like Aquaman or Wonder Woman would get new shows.

Then I remember how awful their live-action concept pilots turned out and remember why they don't get new shows.

The problem with Wonder Woman is that they try to make her strong and independent, more than just a "Sexy Amazon," while keeping her in tight leather and exposing more cleavage than any woman should, playing the "Sexy Amazon" angle straight.

That and the straight up murders.
*Cough*

I'd love for a live action show about the Question, but they'd find some way to screw it up...

I really liked the DTV Wonder Woman movie a few years ago. Its a very balanced representation of Diana.

Arrow actually isn't bad. I was pleasantly surprised by it. You just have to sit through some soap operay crap that they threw in for the CW crowd.

He's not, it'll air on Disney XD apparently.
Xiaolin Chronicles it's the name.

May check it out for nostalgia's sake.

>Disney XD
Guess I'm not.
Tell me, did they manage to get Jack's original VA back, or is Tara Strong still voicing him for Chronicles?
