DC Universe Topic

[The Hip Historian Iaredios]

Hello. If you have talked to me or seen my posts, you might have suspected that I like DC Comics. I have noticed that a couple others here do as well, so lets talk about it!
 
Here are some starting points for discussion. Choose one, choose al, choose none, I don't care:
 
-- Have you ever read a DC comic book or graphic novel? Can you tell us what they are and give a brief summary without spoilers? What graphic novels  do you want to get (a wish list)?
-- What are some of your favorite and disliked characters/factions? Why?
-- Do you enjoy both Marvel, DC, and other comic book franchises/universes, or do you strictly prefer one over the other.
-- What are your feelings about Warner Bros.' in-development DCCU (DC Cinematic Universe)? Do you think Man of Steel was a good movie to start from?
-- Do you want Hans Zimmer to make all the music for the DCCU?
-- Have you heard about the television shows Arrow and The Flash? Do you watch them? What are your feelings about the shows? Do you think there will be more spin-offs?
-- Do you think CBS' up-coming show Supergirl will be good? Should it take place in the same universe as the aforementioned shows?
-- How is the TV show Constantine? ^{_{I haven't watched it (my mother watches too many TV shows and thus couldn't find an opening for myself).}}.Has Swamp Thing made an appearance, or any other supernatural DC characters; do you think characters such as, Raven or Brother Blood will make an appearance? Do you want this show to take place in the same world as CW's Arrow and The Flash?
-- Do you think TNT's up-coming show Teen titans will be any good?
-- How do you feel about all these DC Universe television shows?
-- Do you think Teen Titans Go! is funny? Do you enjoy the easter eggs pertaining to the rest of the DC Universe in every episode as much as I do?
-- Have you seen any of the animated DC direct-to-DVD movies?
-- Were you disappointed about the discontinuation of the DC Animated Universe, Green Lantern: The Animated Series, and Young Justice?
-- Batman has a series of video games, just in-case you didn't know. Can you see any other character getting a quality video game?
-- Would you count LEGO's BIONICLE as being part of the DC Universe? Could you see characters such Onepu and Balta being Green Lanterns for the Solis Magna solar system? Would Darkseid take interest in Spherus Magna because of all the powerful characters and the avatar the makes up the planet's core? Would the Great Beings have had contact with Kryptonians in ages past before the Core War?
-- Any other topics you wish to raise?
 
 
 
i will answer a few of them for myself:
 
-- ^{_{Have you ever read a DC comic book or graphic novel? Can you tell us what they are and give a brief summary without spoilers? What graphic novels  do you want to get (a wish list)?}}
I have only read the following graphic novels: Batman: Birth of the Demon and Aquaman: The Trench. I would like to get:
--- Aquaman: The Others, Aquaman: Throne of Atlantis, Batman: Court of Owls, Batman: City of Owls, Batman: The Long Halloween, Batman: The Man Who Laughs, The Killing Joke, Superman: Last Son of Krypton, Lex Luthor: Man of Steel, HawkWorld, The Red Hood Trilogy, Death of Superman Trilogy, Superman: Birthright, Earth One: Superman Vol.1, and maybe a couple of pre-New 52 Powergirl GNs. Any good Wonder Woman and Green Lantern graphic novels, or any other GN recommendations I have not listed?
-- Batman is probably my favorite DC character, as I grew up with him and he has personally affected my personality. Other favorites would have to be Darkseid, Arthur Curry/Aquaman, Dick Grayson, Jason Todd, Kal-El, Karra Zor-L,
