I have a strange sensation that the answer should just be "bringing Kristin Wiig into the DC house", but I won't cop-out so easily. There is nothing more enjoyable to me than the story of Cheetah and Snapper Carr in Final Crisis: Resist. In fact, Final Crisis: Resist stands as one of my Ten Most Underrated DC stories ever. The beauty of Cheetah lies in giving into the primal and the idea of being consumed by an animalistic nature plays perfectly as the world burns down around these two "last people on Earth." I think my vision for Cheetah as a character is that she easily stands as a villain fish-out-of-water character, where there are better uses for her as a refreshing point of view on the heroic side of DC rather than trapped in the stock basic plots of villainy. DC is best as a universe, and Cheetah gives us a peek into the nature of other species by hybridizing the lenses of both humans and animals. It can be really great stuff. --- "It is too easy being monsters. Let us try to be human." ~Victor Frankenstein, Penny Dreadful ... Copied to Clipboard! |
