I’ve been pretty excited over at least TWO new television shows this season.
And BOTH of them are DC comics.
First off there is GOTHAM. Nice and nasty. I really enjoy Bullock and Gordon – although I keep feeling that I am watching Russell Crowe lite in Jim Gordon’s role. The Penguin is doing a great job and Catwoman is suitably feline and I am pretty certain that the last episode of the season – when we finally get there – is going to bring the Joker into the picture.
What I like most is that Gotham is dark!
Then – last night I watched CONSTANTINE.
They seem to be doing that series up good and proper as well. Constantine, the character, is both mad and bad and exactly the way I pictured him.
Now, if I could ONLY eliminate the memory of Keanu Reeves horrible take on the character in the absolutely dreadful 2005 fiasco.
(shall I tell you how I REALLY feel?)
yours in storytelling,
Steve Vernon
