I love they explain here why they dedicated the entire episode to Doorman. It's basically what Simon COULD be.

Bearclaw will return in Avengers Doomsday

Worthless, pointless and a waste of a character. He’s just like Moon Knight. An awesome character that Marvel has turned into a one shot wonder. We’ll never see him again.

The story was made as an isolated thing, it doesnt need to set up 3 years of shows and appearances to be a good product

I'm honestly astonished how long it took for Wonder Man to actually release. The special effects aren't insane, and there isn't some massive VFX army fight to be seen.

It uses its time well, has character progression, lets actors actually be present to perform in front of one another, and isn't a segue film.

I don't know why we're not getting more of this and Werewolf by Night instead of corporate slop like Quantumania and The Marvels

DDC said this show could be a tax write off for Disney in recent interview, so I guess there's why the show took this long to release.

I think they more meant it like Disney was planning to scrap it for a tax write off, but the people who loved the project fought for it.

They're trying to space out their releases more to avoid overwhelming the audience.

So you’re telling me that everything needs to be going into the same direction and can’t be a standalone thing within a cinematic universe?

Some fans are so weird. Not sure how this is pointless. Every character doesn’t need to be in the avengers. Up to episode 7 but show has been great so far. I’ve been loving these series about characters who aren’t in the avengers or have Hulk on speed dial. Just smaller stories of people in the world of the mcu.

I mean it would be nice if he was in the avengers team at some point since the character in the comics is in fact an Avenger… but his show didn’t have to lead to that or anything

I've been reading Marvel since the '70s - and read stuff from before my life - and Simon Williams is a bit of a rubbish character. I don't dislike him, but there's no there, there. That's why people talk about the Grim Reaper etc - the best thing about Wonder Man is his villains. He's generic and forgettable, no matter how much I personally enjoy him, along with all the Avengers of that time.

You gotta separate who you like from who is a good character for many people. I love Beta Ray Bill, but I don't want a Beta Ray Bill movie. It would be shit. If he ever turns up in a cameo, that'd be great.

So if they turned Wonder Man from a cameo-level character to a good TV show, well done them.

Dude, Ben Kingsley killed. I’ve always loved him as an Ac—tor.

Funny childhood memory. I was 12 and I called into a radio station trying to win concert tickets for my dad to see a Smooth Jazz concert, I think it was Kenny G.

I called in and guessed the right song. It was Axel F by Harold Faltermeyer. I won the tickets, but it wasn’t for the concert. It was for the movie, Sexy Beast starring Ben Kingsley. I was so happy that I won something on the radio, I handed the phone to my mom and she got really angry with me because she thought I won tickets to an adult movie.
