The DC Universe's Mutant Menace FINAL RESULTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Volcana wins the final spot on the "Brotherhood" equivalent!

What do y'all think??? How would mutants be different in the DC Universe? How would the adventures of these two lineups differ from the good and bad mutants of Marvel? Who might be the equivalent of the FoH, Grayden Creed, Boliver Trask, etc?

The DC Mutant Menace!!! (EVIL MUTANTS DAY 10!!!)

The Ten-Eyed Man!!! Honestly, I've never heard of this character, and I'm very intrigued! 👁️

RULES/GUIDELINES:

I'm not asking for one-for-one equivalents (like, say, Weather Wizard as Storm or something); I'm looking for people who fit the "vibe" of the X-Men.

A good example would be the second Black Canary, Dinah Laurel Lance: born with her powers, sent away from her parents because her abilities were a danger to herself and others, lots of trauma in her past, considered "cooler/edgier" than a lot of the more retro heroes, lots of romance drama... all of that is top-tier X-potential!!! LOL

JUST A NOTE THE "GOOD" TEAM IS ON THE NEXT SLIDE

(META TROPE) Creators with an antagonistic relationship with their own fanbase.

This has never made much sense to me. If you write a book/movie/TV show/whatever, you're ultimately writing it for the rest of the world. If you're gonna get mad that they're not enjoying it the specific way you want them to, why bother?

  1. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle ultimately did not like writing so many Sherlock Holmes stories, hated how popular it was, mocked fans for writing fan letters, and tried to kill off the character to end the series, but reluctantly walked it back at the insistence of his publisher.

  2. Anne Rice went so far as to attempt to sue fanfic writers who wrote fanfic about her Vampire Chronicles characters despite fanfic being free and making no money off her work. She also savagely replied to reviewers, even positive reviewers, online if she disagreed with their ultimately interpretative views.

  3. Annie Proulx, who wrote the short story Brokeback Mountain, was so bothered by people writing letters expressing sadness that Jack and Ennis didn't get a happy ending, despite them saying they enjoyed the book and the story intentionally going for tragic emotions, which is what they were expressing, that she said she wished she never wrote it in the first place!

Final Two Founding MCU X-Men casting ideas

With the news that Kit Connor and Charles Melton have been cast as Cyclops and Beast, respectively, that just leaves two of the founding X-Men (plus the Professor) left. Here's who I'd pick:

Justice Smith as Iceman

Connor Storrie as Angel

DB Woodside as Professor X
