Gunn has stated one of the heroes featured in the mural at the Hall of Justice in Superman is played by a very famous actor, and the character identified as Doctor Fate sort of resembles Brosnan's version from Black Adam.

This would be an actual positive use for the reboot, so Gunn will probably not do it in favor of more suicide squad wank. Killing off Kent in his FIRST FUCKING APPEARANCE was beyond goddamn stupid

That just means he doesn't consider that canon

Anon part of doing the DCU is just moving the fuck on from what didn't work. To cherrypick a character from Black Adam is to validate the film, which Gunn doesn't want to do here or with Shazam either. His words. He legitimately hated those films.

So while we may get a JSA, it won't be the one we saw before

Gunn can pick and choose whatever he wants. Harcout and that fat fuck were in Black Adam, he can just say and do whatever he wants because it's all fiction at the end of the dyay. plus, having a legendary actor like Pierce (and the best Bond) in the DCU is too good to pass up,even for a clinically retarded fuck like Gunn.

Gunn has constantly lied, contradicted himself and walked back on everything he has said. He'd absolutely bring back Pierce and just say he was canon and nobody else. Cause he's a fucking child in a man's body.

If he does some stupid shit like that for a joke, I will join the snyderjeets. Gunn needs to have self restraint, I swear

I hate using this word but Jesus Christ anon cope fucking harder. He hates Dwayne Johnson's guts and doesn't want to validate nor entertain anything from that film. Plus DCU is in it for the long run, and I dont think Pierce even wants that commitment

More's the pity. The JSA were the one bright spot in that god awful film, and Pierce Brosnan the best part of them.

Who would you cast as Doctor Fate that could match the suave gravitas that Pierce Brosnan had?
>Bring in Jay Garrick
Damn straight.
>Doctor Mid-Nite, Hourman, Wildcat, Alan Scott
Doctor Mid-Nite, Hourman and Wildcat I'm on board with, Alan Scott might be a bit too much of a "So he's Green Lantern, but not a Green Lantern?" for casual audiences to wrap their heads around.
>Maybe bring in Star-Girl and STRIPE for the modern era
Definitely, "father figure and daughter" stories are en vogue right now.
