    Superman and Lois Season 5 Wish List …

    The series had a great ending, but if Superman and Lois got a Season 5 comic, similar to Smallville Season 11, or a spin-off comic what do you want to see?

    Do you guys think Clark and Lois should have a second kid?

    I feel like some stuff should be wrapped up before and we should have some stuff happen (like making Jon a cool character again and giving Kon something to do) but honestly I’d love for Jon to become a big brother.

    For the "Superman’s son" concept, who did it better: Jon Kent from the comics, or the twins Jordan and Jonathan?

    Which writer who hasn't written Superman yet would you like to see take on the character in the future?

    I would personally like to see what Jonathan Hickman could do with the character.

    Plot heavy Superman stories with lots of suspense and conflict

    Just as the titles states, please. I'm looking for something with twists and turns.

    Is there a story where Superman has been depicted as not being able to sleep or depressed because there's always many more people to save but not enough time in a day?

    How would Superman work in Matt Reeves' Batman Universe?

    Picture courtesy of CBR

    Matt Reeves' films in his Crime Family Saga have all been astounding. I know James Gunn would not allow another Superman while filming his Superman film for the DCU but if Matt got the go-ahead to do a Superman film set in his universe I wonder how he would approach it. As the universe is mean't to be a grounded world.

    My pitch: The Shawshank Redemption with Flashpoint Superman. Imagine an Alien baby travels and lands into field in Kansas, but instead of landed safely, it crash-lands and caused a meteoric impact. The government seals that place off and it becomes an Area 51 like location. Superman grows up in captivity, he's never seen the sun, and he grows up with other meta-humans, this place is like a containment city, he's been told that he carries an alien pathogen and that sunlight triggers its reaction. We then follow him as he plans his escape, and he eventually does. In the end he reaches the surface and jumps off the top, only to fly. This story is as grounded as you can get with superman, not a lot of superpowers.

    What comic book do you want James Gunn to take inspiration from for the sequel?

    It's been well reported that All-Star Superman and Birthright are major inspirations for the new Superman movie. What runs do you think they should take inspiration from for the sequel?

    I desperately want to see For the Man Who Has Everything adapted into live action. It's one of my favorite Man of Steel stories ever written, and I think if done well could be an absolute tear jerker.

    Mongul would also make a great villain that we've never seen before. I think Dave Bautista could be a great choice for the character, as well.
