Comic of the Week
C2E2 Comic ConSpecial thanks for the C2E2 for putting on a great convention!! Check out the coverage or order tickets for next year at C2E2.com!!
The CW’s Wonder Woman will not be named “Iris”. That was a codename so people wouldn’t find out they were casting Wonder Woman. So much for that.
Amazon writer Allan Heinberg said on twitter “Merciful Minerva! So much for using code names to avoid internet speculation. ;)”.
DC Entertaintment Chief Creative Officer Geoff Johns echoed that by saying “If a WW show happens her name is of course DIANA. Codenames (like IRIS) are used in casting a lot to try and avoid speculation. #TV101 :)”.
After the “Iris” casting description leaked, the next day this got out: http://wonderwomantv.com/5165/spoilers-what-actresses-will-be-doing-in-the-amazon-test-scenes/
The only questions I have left is whether “Diana” will have have her super powers and a Wonder Woman like costume.
All this stuff so far sounds very much like Wonder Woman to me. Am I wrong?
Hmmmmm. That is very interesting news. That would make a lot of sense if all of this was just to keep the show under wraps. As this is the first I’ve heard of this, I can’t really comment either way, but I’m sure that would be a great relief to most people if the new CW show was just the regular Wonder Woman mythos as it is supposed to be.
However, I checked the news article you linked to above and it is also nothing more than speculation. The fact that one of the show creators Tweeted some information to that affect is very positive. Hopefully, this is the case because I think that will bode well for the success of the show.
We will have to do more research and get back to you guys with an update.
Okay, so here’s what I’d do with the ultimate holodeck situation. I would be myself (with the powers of Harry Dresden) on a quest in medieval England to find the Holy Grail accompanied by the original New Warriors and Calvin & Hobbes. Make it so.
Hahaha….that’s fun. Nice. Calvin and Hobbes. Bonus points for the reference.
In my holodeck situation I would be in the world of the walking dead with a 5 person team including batman, harly Quinn, wolverine,deadpool and myself with the powers of Conner from AC3 and our job would be to secure a place for a large group to live!
Okay, that’s just badass. I love this!
Another great episode guys! I loved the Geek-Off! More of that please.
For my Holodeck scenario I would be in the post apocalyptic world of Mad Max. I would be Wolverine and traveling with Colossus, Cyclops and Nightcrawler.
That’s awesome man :D
An X-Men scenario with all my favorite X-Men. Now you’re talking my language.
My geekoff score was 9 btw :D!!! Great episode guys!!!
Very nice score. We were both just terrible. hahaha. Hopefully we were just warming up and now have the hang of it so we should do better for future episodes.
I didnt keep score, but I know I did terrible also! I did get the Morlock’s one though. =)
8 for sure. There were a couple that I think I would have gotten, but you guys answered too fast causing some second guessing of the “Would I have remembered that if they hadn’t said it?” vein.
So I think the time has come for Super Geeks to step outside the box and lets have some RPG discussion. Good ole D&D and other role play games. I know that me and Blue are big gamers and I bet there are more like us out there. Lets get some chatter on this topic! Maybe have everyone submit what their coolest in game RPG experience was and then you guys can vote on what was the best???
