Ltt Fury had the flying car in the comics. It's a clever nod from joss. Plus it had the back to the future flyboy. I dig it

@Sunday would love a Punisher show on HBO or another cable network. I'd also say heroes for hire and DD but I want Murdock in phase 3

It seemed to lack charisma.
It was good, but not gripping.

Elizabeth Henstridge is so so so beautiful.
Chloe Bennett is good at the comedy aspects.

Some of the writing was unnecessarily cheesy.

I hope they "bring it" in the following episodes.

I think Moon knight tv show could be something cool on spike tv

Punisher definitely on HBO

Daredevil on FX


But I wonder see Fox is seeing what marvel studios is doing, will they go ahead and try to bring any mutants to small screen too

It was good, not great, but it has plenty of time and room to grow. Hardly what I would call a "kids" SHIELD, but some seem to think anything with some humor in it is geared toward kids.

Fox

Gambit tv show

I just hope they stop stereotyping Hispanics as gangsters like they did in the pilot, It was Unnecessary.

BTW MARVEL/ABC/Joss NOT ALL HISPANICS IN THE LOS ANGELES ARES ARE GANGSTERS. THAT SHIT BOTHERED ME.

What's up 1984


Yah I remember Generation X.... Lol
At the time when I was a kid I thought it was pretty cool and they was going to turn it into a ongoing tv show

@Jojo - Do you honestly think Disney would allow another network to have a Marvel show? I think not! Why do you think Clone Wars was Canceled on Cartoon Network........They want full control of their properties.
