Just casually reading through old issues from almost ten years ago - as you do - and I remembered. Before the 'Ant-Man' movie demanded that the comics portray Scott Lang in the same bumbling style, he led the FF, beat up Doctor Doom and re-defined the very concept of Pym Particles and their properties.

He also - as revealed in FF (volume 2) #014 - killed someone.

The idea started life as a suggestion for what to do for Marvel Comics #1000, but clearly we went a different way. But I still thought it was a fun idea. What Amazing Spider-Man Full Circle is then is a Round Robin. Which is to say, the writers were assigned in random order and their goal was to tell a wild and outrageous Spider-Man story—with nothing planned beforehand. Nobody knew who would be writing when, nor even exactly who else was a part of the story. So the goal in each case was to pick up the cliffhanger that the last writer left and then carry the story forward. The final chapter was group-written by everybody. -- Tom Brevoort

We basically tried to sabotage each other. -- Nick Spencer

If I don't type "The End" on the last page of this Silver Surfer #14 plot, maybe we could just keep surfing through space? -- Dan Slott

I can't remember being more satisfied with an ending to a story. -- Mike Allred

"Read Surfer 13 lettering, cried & gave notes. Read the office's pass w/ notes & cried. Read the 2nd pass, cried. Am now dehydrated from a comic." - Dan Slott

"When we first conceived the current Silver Surfer series, there were three big stories we wanted to do. Galactus (#8-10) was the first. Shalla Bal (v2 #1-4) was the second. The third starts in Silver Surfer #11..." - Tom Brevoort

So we've had

Batman '66
Batman '66 and The Green Hornet
Batman '66 and The Man from U.N.C.L.E.
Batman '66 and Steed and Mrs Peel
Batman '66 and Wonder Woman '77

And they've all been pretty good

So what could possibly come next?

Superman 55? (or indeed Superman 78?)

Nope!

( And I can pretty much promise it's NOT who you're thinking of... )

Entertainment Weekly confirm that the director of the hugely enjoyable LEGO Batman movie Chris McKay is being tipped to produce a live action Nightwing movie!!

He's more of an animation director so far, his track record including Robot Chicken, Moral Orel and Titan Maximum but based on LEGO Batman you can't deny he's prepared to have some FUN with the concept of costumed superheroes (which the DCCU is so sadly lacking, thought their TV shows seem to have gotten the hint).

Bill Dubuque (The Accountant) is set to write the script.

( And as a bit of a teaser... perhaps! ;) )

'I was sitting with David Tennant and Billy Piper when I gave her a trade, and David Tennant (who'd already read it) said, "Oh, you'll love this! There's a lot of Rose in this character, Dawn." (And yes, in that moment I did everything in my power to NOT go "squee!")' -- Dan Slott

"[In] the summer of 1993 [...] I was still new to the U.S. and I was struck by how powerfully my friends reacted to Bill Clinton, who had become president about eight months earlier. They had been so happy when Clinton was elected, as if he was going to fix everything. And when some time had passed and he hadn't yet done the things they'd expected, they were genuinely heartbroken, as if something deeply religious had gone wrong. It seemed clear to me that they were yearning for a savior, someone to sort it all out for them. So I thought I'd do a story, in the form of synoptic gospel, in which I'd give my friends the kind of president they wanted."

-- Neil Gaiman in Hy Bender's The Sandman Companion, 182
