I've had to get used to that.

Wonder Woman's getting great reviews. Best reviewed DC film since The Dark Knight.

I'm gonna repost sum1 here:

Thanks for all that, sum1! Well, you have complaints about how nearly everyone draws women. Jim Lee, Todd McFarlane, John Byrne, etc.

I love his X-Men run, his Alpha Flight run, etc.

And by the way, here's an early picture of Wolverine unmasked by Byrne. It shows how the portrayal of Wolverine back in the '70s and early '80s was influenced by Jack Nicholson, who was then the classic '70s antihero. See the close resemblence to Nicholson:

Here's another one, a classic image from the cover of the Days of Future Past storyline. Note the same resemblence. Wolverine is Jack Nicholson.

And Jack Nicholson in the iconic 1970 movie Five Easy Pieces:

Compare the grin in the first Byrne pic to this photo from the movie:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0065724/...r/rm3679033344

He even dressed like Wolverine a lot in that film -plaid shirts, turtlenecks, leather jacket, jeans, cowboy boots.

Early portrayals of Wolverine also gave him a personality echoing characters like those Jack Nicholson played back then.

Here's Nicholson from the Shining (1980), showing what became some of Wolverine's trademark wild spirits.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0081505/...r/rm3899909376

And a very feral-looking Nicholson from the same film:

Well, Gal Gadot was good in the role in Batman vs Superman, so I'm looking forward to seeing Wonder Woman.

I think I'm gonna try and see Wonder Woman as well. Be nice to see a good DC movie for once.

I'm glad it's making a good showing. Gal Gadot's career is off and running, which is what I want.
