A murder in Gotham’s streets leads Batgirl to a crime scene with no discernible clues—only the words “Forget-Me-Not.” As the investigation unravels, Cassandra Cain discovers disturbing gaps in her own memory. With no leading suspect to fight and no answers on the streets, she must go inward to find the truth.

The Fastest Man Alive wasn’t a runaway hit with audiences — especially women. That’s according to The Flash director Andy Muschietti, who sa

If I was feeling mean, I'd say that it's true no one cares about the Flash, but I feel more that despite the enthusiasm by the creators and actors like Michael Keaton and Sasha Calle, the fact that it was a mediocre superhero film starring a controversial" lead actor with subpar special effects probably had more of a bearing on why it didn't do so well beyond "women don't know who the Flash is".

The character had a who that ran (haha) for nine seasons, while not everyone watched that show (I know I didn't), the fact that it was an overtly not great movie (plus Miller's antics) more likely made people more willing to choose other more convincingly good films instead.

I think that James Gunn did mention recently that there are no immediate plans to have a new version of the Flash appear in the new DCU, but I think that considering Gunn's whole thing is introducing obscure comicbook characters and making the audience fall in love with them, a version that actually WORKS on screen will probably happen at one point or another (especially as they have already confirmed that Gorilla Grodd is a thing in the new DCU).

Just have it be Wally West when the Flash next appears, and pretend that Barry died. That's when Barry worked best as a character, when he was dead and not appearing in anything except in flashbacks. Or have a movie focusing on the Rogues and introduce Wally in that film as a heroic antagonist or something.

Finally!

Quaid returns alongside costars Alice Lee (People We Meet on Vacation) as Lois Lane, Ishmel Sahid (Jury Duty) as Jimmy Olsen, and Kiana Madeira (Malcom in the Middle: Life’s Still Unfair) as Kara Zor-El/Supergirl. Season 3 kicks off with these characters figuring out their lives in the aftermath of the Brainiac saga. Clark is ready to settle down and build a future with Lois, who's worried about losing her star reporter status at The Daily Planet if they do so. Meanwhile, Kara, modeling herself after her Kryptonian cousin, is now on the hunt for an Earth mate and has her sights set on Jimmy, who's now a celebrity journalist after proving aliens exist. It's at this period of change and self-discovery that the other Supermen arrive.

Season 2 teased Hank, the future Cyborg Superman, as a handsome astronaut who doesn't like aliens and doesn't think they belong on Earth. When last we saw him, Hank served as a fighter pilot in the finale's battle over Metropolis and his aircraft was shot down. "That's not gonna improve his view of extraterrestrials," Wyatt teases. Superboy is another confirmed character arrival. He's directly inspired by the leather jacket-clad version of the '90s comics but is still a different spin. "Superboy can't just push Clark's buttons," Wyatt notes. "So Superboy's been adjusted to be more relevant to all of our characters, and then he is going to embody the tension between hope in the present and fear in the future.... He was the writers' and the artists' favorite character for the season, and we're going to complicate him a bit over the course of it." Steel/John Irons, voiced by Byron Marc Newsome in past seasons, will return but will be "more lightly involved," Wyatt discloses, because he's "less of a foil to Superman." If the show gets to season 4, "We've got plans for him," the showrunner adds. For now, season 3 will "heavily feature three of the others of the alternative Supermen from Reign," Wyatt says, including the two previously mentioned. And then there's Lex Luthor, who will be "a huge part" of the new story. He's someone who hates Superman because the hero is something he can't control.

"The future is coming always for all of us, no matter what. Whether you face that with fear or hope or courage, and how, it determines a lot about you," Wyatt explains. "Lex is all fear all the time. He's the character who most embodies that concept in the season, and he's driving it —the action thread, anyway." Season 3 will also include a light cameo from Jessica Cruz, a character who will headline her own My Adventures with Green Lantern offshoot that's in development. Wyatt is actively working on that animated series with Clogher, but says they are still in pre-production and are waiting on an official pickup. "We are just about to ship our first episode to Korea for animation, so it's gonna be a minute," he notes.

Season 4 of My Adventures With Superman is also "not technically renewed," Wyatt states. Though, when James Gunn and Peter Safran took the helm of DC Studios, he and Clogher pitched their take for seasons 3 and 4 simultaneously. "Please watch the show on Adult Swim, on Toonami, and then HBO Max, and maybe we'll get a season 4," Wyatt says. So mark your calendars: Season 3. June 13. Toonami. Midnight.

Aha, they DID pitch seasons 3 and four at the same time!

In 1984, The Comics Buyer’s Guide had an article that underlined plans to reboot the character of Captain Marvel with the name Captain Thunder (one of the potential names they nearly used when the character was being created in the 1940s) due to Marvel Comics laying claim to the original name at the time, with both the Captain and Billy Batson getting reimagined as African American characters.

Alas this version did not come to be, with instead an updated version of the white version of Billy and Captain Marvel debuting several years later in the 1987 mini-series Shazam!: The New Beginning by writers Roy and Dann Thomas and artist Tom Mandrake.

The Eighties brought a lot of potential changes to the characters once the legal situation with Marvel was sorted out, although a lot of the less "traditional" versions of the characters (including a concept by Roy Thomas where Freddy Freeman was black instead and Mary wasn't related to Billy, had a punk aesthetic, and went by the name Spike) didn't make it to print.
