Wouldn’t that basically be Batman v. Superman if Henry Cavill and Ben Affleck kissed?
There was a short story called “Deadfellas” in one of the ABC compilations about an vampire mob intergang rivalry. It’s not about any of the police officers (although they make an appearance IIRC); the central figure is a stenographer with the power of complete recall. Along with “Smax” and “The Forty-Niners” I think that’s it for side stories.
No! Live action steampunk! If Legends of Tomorrow can waste all that CGI on a stupid story, we can waste even more CGI on a good story.
Opening nomination for Agatha: Natalie Dormer.
YES!!!
Also:
The Haunted Tank, commanded by Lt Jeb Stuart. An M3 that can blow up Tiger tanks with its 37mm cannon!
Johnny Cloud, Navajo Ace.
Gunner, Sarge, and Pooch, defending their eternal beachhead against the Japs’ nightly Banzai charges.
Sgt Fury and his Howling Commandos, the **real **Nick Fury!
And last but definitely not least,
Magnus, Robot Fighter, 4000 AD!
Sorry, forgot Herbie Popnecker! :smack:
**Sugar and Spike **as originally written (as babies):
Cool. Thanks.
This thread had inspired me to take a look and apparently there are five issues of Top Ten Season 2 by a different creative team that have never been collected as a Trade as best as I can tell.
Hmm - man, the stuff that is out there. Thanks for checking! Is there a link to a place that sums them up best? And the general sense of the non-Moore quality?
The Unwritten, by Mike Carey and peter Gross is absolutely amazing. It’s the story of a slacker whose father wrote a highly successful series of books about a boy wizard based on him, and he resents all the fans mistaking him for the character- until he discovers that everything is less fictional than he thought.
The Unknown Soldier, fighting on the home front, and on the front lines, and behind enemy lines; he’ll go anywhere, he’ll be anyone; he’s a pilot, he’s a tank commander, he’s a scuba-diving explosives expert; he’s infiltrating the SS as an SS officer, he’s bodyguarding FDR as FDR; he’s all things to all people, so that by all possible means he can be the right man in the right place at the right time.
JGL had creative differences and left the project, so back to limbo it went.
Ditto Love & Rockets and Cowboy Wally, particularly his time as a late-night talk show host, including the Wally Beer ads.
Also, David Lapham’s Stray Bullets. That series was so disturbing because it was so true.
You may already know, but if you like ZOT! you might like McCloud’s The Sculptor - which Sony has already bought the rights for.
Second Transmetropolitan – my favorite comic of all time.
Only a few sentences on the Top Ten Wikipedia page.
Some one else mentioned Unwritten. What could be interesting is if the adaptation for Unwritten was focused on stories told in movies the way that the Comic was focused on stories told in print.
Oy - Wikipedia - duh. Thanks!
YES. I have been waiting for a movie version of Elfquest since the creators first went into talks with movie studios back in the late 80s. More recently there was a screenplay written and I think even a director assigned to the project, but the deal ultimately fell apart. The creators are unwilling to give up creative control (and rightfully so I think) so unless the movie-making climate changes it’s looking like there will never be an Elfquest movie. 
I’d love to see the Heckler. But it’d probably be too weird for most people to understand.
Ambush Bug would be fun, too.
If you’re going to be adapt Girl Genius, why wouldn’t you do it in Foglio’s inimitable style?
I would love to see a PS238TV series. Actual child superheroes–not teens, children. And not just a parody, like Powerpuff Girls.
And it’s a paper comic that moved online when it was canceled, so it still fits the OP.
Zach Snyder…who’s unable to do do anything but sepia-toned grim and gritty? Doing MAGE?!?!
Holy fuck, did we ever dodge a bullet.
…because no one else could imitate his style?
