October 26, 2011 10:42 am Whatever they may say I still believe she's a Get Out of Jail Free card for DC if they ever decide to go back to the old universe. Also, I'm pretty sure I've figured out who she is: Halcyon, a minor character introduced by Brian Azzerello and Jim Lee in Superman's For Tomorrow arc. Check out the similarities: http://follow-the-nerd.blogspot.com/2011/10/un-mystifying-purple-lady-of-dcu.html

May 13, 2011 11:37 am Gotham Central would be perfect. The Wire with added Batman. (Which, let's face it, is just about the only thing that show was lacking.)

If TV fams think Lost got weird, I wonder what they'd make of The Doom Patrol... (The Grant Morrison era, obv)

Also, Morning Glories is surely a dead cert for a TV adaptation?

March 20, 2011 9:48 am I've registered specifically so I can say: I TOTALLY CALLED IT! Feeling smug and justified right now.

The tone of The Long Halloween fits perfectly with Nolan's Batfilms (he's already nicked a fair bit from Loeb/Sale's Bat books) and while I doubt he'll be replicating the story (Holiday may not feature) the character still fits with the duel freak/gangster focus of the films. And Joseph Gordon-Levitt will nail it. Hooray!
