Comics I would like to see on TV

With the success of some DC TV shows, what characters should Marvel Bring to TV?

So, I read recently that Disney does plan to go the TV series route with Marvel, and that they plan to use some of the lesser-known characters. “Instead of making a $200 million movie and kind of betting the farm on one character, you can develop a television pilot, a television series,” Iger said of Disney’s designs on its new catalog of goodies. Which got me thinking, what characters would make a good TV show, or rather what commercial is going to make me say, wow I REALLY want to see that!! Therefore, here are a few that I think might have that potential. Let me know what you think and add your thoughts or ideas of your own.

Moon Knight (I recently did an artical on this, and would still love to see it come to fruitation)
Cloak and Daggar
New Warriors
Dark Hawk (Maybe a CGI Pixar flick? Darker then the Incredibles of course)
Luke Cage
Iron Fist

These are just a few that I was thinking of. All of these I could see being successful, even The Dark Hawk I would love to see that.

I think this is a really great time to make a few Marvel TV series.Disney owns ABC, which produces Lost, FlashForward and V.This is Lost's last season, which is why ABC created those other two shows, as possible replacements.

With Lost gone, they'll have an opening for a similar show.What other kind of show but a comic book inspired one could replace Lost?I don't watch FlashForward or V, so I don't know how well they are doing.They could be on their way out, which would leave two more openings.They also produce Legend of the Seeker, so they could also go the syndication route.

I could see a version of Supreme Power on ABC.

With the success of CBM's, more TV shows are just around the corner:

Heroes for Hire
Gambit-centered in LA with thieves & assassins guilds
Inhumans (preferably animated)

Nightwing would be cool. X-men first class would make a better TV show than movie I think.

LA is the state abbreviation for Louisiana there foxfan.

Why would Gambit be in Los Angeles?

If the fox stands for 20th Century Fox, then I know why you made those comments :D

Do you think they'll bring the incredibles into marvel continuity? I think that'd be cool, I enjoyed the movie. Also on the fantastic 4 DVD I have Stan Lee says he likes it too, so it's marvel approved lol

I can't see them bringing The Incredibles into the Marvel U.Wouldn't they be too similar to the F4?
