That's quite a bit of spin. He claims to draw his ideas primarily from the comic book canon, but he apparently doesn't realize that some of the core ideas in MoS were originated in the Donner movies.

I think the Marbelivers would have the tiniest shred of shame not to come in here to teach us about DC characters, but they will troll like some already done.

Wonder how long it'll take for you to realize how stupid that sounded even written down.

@Retribution13 - it sounds like Marvel trolls, and I was sadly right looking at the posts made by them. Wish there were more comic book fans, but there's just a few of them.
