4. The New Gods
With the inclusions of Darkseid and the rumored Steppenwolf in the DCEU, it looks like we’ll be getting some Apokolips (sic) action in the near future. But sadly, no plans for the heroes of New Genesis, the heroic counterpoint to Darkseid’s forces.
The New Gods – or, to use their categorical term, the Fourth World – were brought to the DCU by Jack Kirby, one of the patron saints of comic books. Personally, I’ve never gotten too deeply into the New Gods stuff, but I really do like what I’ve read. And there are so many stories to tell.
How about the story of Orion, a monstrous child raised in a world of good? Or Scot Free, the greatest escape artist of all time, who is trapped in reality’s most devious prison from childhood? Or the love story behind Scot (alias Mr. Miracle) and former Female Fury Big Barda? The manipulations of Glorious Godfrey and Granny Goodness, the heroism of Lightray and the Forever People, and so much more.
Kirby’s work on Thor inspired much of that movie, so why not take his other great work involving mythology to the big screen? I can’t think of a reason. And if I can’t think of one, it totally must not exist.
