My Adventures with Wonder Woman:

Cast:
Diana Prince: After centuries of isolation, Themyscira is getting ready to open itself back up to the world of men. Before they do they send reconnaissance out into the world. Among those who left the Island is the Queen’s daughter Diana. The princess is currently observing Gateway City USA under the guise of Diana Prince Gateway University student. 

Wonder Woman: After saving a small group of school children a disguised Diana is hailed a hero. Deciding to take inspiration from both her heritage and Metropolis's Man of Steel, Diana crafts herself a costume and takes on the role of Wonder Woman. But can this defender of truth maintain yet another false identity?

Steve Trevor: Agent Steven Trevor of Cadmus was rather disgruntled when Ammanda Waller reassigned him to Gateway. But with rising rumors of another Super-human Cadmus needed feet on the ground. Waller’s directives are clear. Find the Meta, befriend and observe them, categorize their strengths and weaknesses, and, if needed, eliminate them. 

Etta Candy: The only word to describe Etta is “cutesy”. The freshman college student is cheerful, friendly, and unbearably sweet. She is Diana’s roommate, and much to Diana’s alarm, a closeted Greek mythology nerd. Can an Amazon princess hide her identity living in the same room as an Amazon obsessed hyperactive roommate?

Amanda Waller: Amanda Waller plays much of the same role as in My Adventure With Superman, though she’s done leaving others in charge. Instead, Agent Trevor responds directly to her. She sees Wonder Woman as a potential weapon against the Kryptonians, but also as a potential threat equal to the Kryptonians.

Maxi Zeus: A Gotham native, Maxi is a multi-billion-dollar tech bro. His father was a computer genius and the founder of Olympus Electronics. Now the nepo-baby son, is in charge, deciding to use his father’s tech to make and sell lightning-based weapons. Later on, he will accidentally electrocute himself in a battle with Wonder Woman causing him brain damage that will manifest in his delusions that he is The Zeus, king of Olympus. 

Tim Trench: Trench appears briefly in an episode. His film-noir method of detective work puts him at odds with Diana when the two pair up on a case. However, his ‘40s-esc charm makes him hard to hate, unless you're Steve Trevor, who seems to have a problem with someone charming Wonder Woman for some reason.

Keith Griggs: Keith is an Air Force Vet and Steve Trevor’s best friend. While Keith is fairly new to civilian life, he is well acclimated and easy going. He serves as Steve’s voice of reason, a voice of honesty in a world of spy craft and secret identities. 

Hipolita: Diana’s mother, Queen Hipolita is a hopeful skeptic. It was her plan to re-open Themyscira, and it was not met with unified agreement. In order to display trust in her own plan, trust she only skeptically holds, she agreed to have her daughter be first contact with man’s world. She is a good leader and mother but can be a little overbearing. 

Ares: Ares is the god of war. Throughout the first season he comes to Diana’s aid a number of times, helping her overcome her enemies. However, the war god’s motives may not be so benevolent. After all, a warrior race is trying to figure out how to reconnect peacefully, and Diana is a key to that peace.

I think the JSA could work in the DCU as a WWII documentary. No time travel crap or anything like that, just make the entire film a documentary.

Make the team compromised of big classic names like Jay Garrick and Alan Scott, and through in some old lesser knows like Sandman and Hourman, or even Johnny Quick and Bulletgirl (who have both already appeared in the DCU on the Hall of Justice mural). You could even include an earlier incarnation of Hawkgirl played by the same or a new actress.

You could also make this work as a miniseries that focuses on different 40s heroes in each episode, like Easy Company, The Losers, and The Ray.

Now I know Alan Scott is suggested to not exist, with Hal's instance that he is the first Green Lantern of Earth. But since Alan is not a corpsman, and has also gone by a few other identities, I think you could still make it work.

I wouldn't include anyone on the Trinity. Batman and Superman for obvious reasons, Wonder Woman because I want her saved for a bigger project.

One way or another I REALLY want to see the JSA get adapted again and I believe Superman set the ground work for them to be.

I am currently working on a project in which Adam (the first man) is my main character.

My problem is I want him to have an appealing design.

This doesn't sound like a problem but you have to understand what I'm working with.

Adam is the first Man. In him is the genetic structure that makes up every single human being ever. Meaning he's the blueprint. It also means he's a true average.

He is the least original looking person ever. And I don't know what to do with that!

Additionally, for the first section of my story he's naked. (Not a porn thing, people just didn't wear clothes before there was sin, okay). Which means I can't compensate with interest clothes for a while.

Any advice?

Im trying to draw a female character in an art style I'm trying to develop for a project.

My style so far is blocky and sharp. Which has worked very well for my male character.

However, when looking for inspiration for my female character, I noticed that women are generally drawn with rounder, softer shapes, even if they are in a project that is mostly blocky and sharp.

I want my female character to stick to the blocky style as much as my male character. The few artist I've found that do that all seem to over sexualize their characters. Which, while not really being appropriate in any scenario, is SUPER inappropriate in my project.

Does anyone have any advice on how to work around this, or any art pieces or artist that might work in a similar way?

Sorry for being incredibly vague but I'm not yet ready to go public with my project.

A character that's been around as long as April O'Neal, especially one that started as a classic damsel, will inevitably go through a variety of changes.

Many of those changes are fine. Not necessarily good or bad, just different.

But the one that keeps grinding my gears is that they keep ageing her down.
April should be AT LEAST 10 years older than the turtles.

idk why writers keep aging her down. The only reasons I can think of are to either try to make her more relatable (a reasoning that has led to the deaths of many a character in modern media), or for her to be teased as a love interest for the turtles (which is gross and the writers never have the guts to follow through with it anyway).

Having April be an adult figure in the turtles' life works better. It's true to her original character, but doesn't stick her with the damsel-in-distress title. It also fixes the 'annoying April' problem.

Is this a hot take, or do most people agree on this?

When Gordon temporarily filled in as Batman he went through a lot of changes.

He shaved his mustache, got a hair cut, and even quit smoking.

But his biggest change was the implants that beefed him up enough to be a convincing Batman.

I don't remember anyone ever saying those were removed so does Jim still have them? Is he as strong as Bruce?
