    I cordially invite you to search on my username and "Lois" and/or "Adams." I've been singing her praises as the character for a long time.

    I don’t disbelieve you. (And it would be madness to view her as anything but the best Lois. ;) ). I was just a bit surprised at the agreement.

    Yeah, she's awesome. The easy shorthand is "Snyderman sucks," but the fact is there are some things I like in those films, and Adams is involved in about 90 percent of them.

    Maybe I missed it among all the posts but is there any talk about Lynda Carter appearing in the crossover? She's already appeared in Supergirl, so I'd hope that an appearance of her as Wonder Woman wouldn't be out of the question.

    That doesn't really count, because she tracked down Clark/Kal-El before he ever adopted the glasses.

    And Kidder's Lois saw through the glasses in the Donner Cut of Superman 2. Plus, of course, Reeve showed that there was much more to the disguise than just the glasses.

    Well, Lynda Carter was already on Supergirl, so she seems more likely than Tom Welling.

    I mean if they want to go nuts they can always bring back the likes of Dean Cain, Teri Hatcher, and maybe even persuade Helen Slater to put the cape back on for a one-off.
    Oh and while we're hoping for the impossible, maybe have Kevin Conroy show up in a grey wig, cane, and a black Great Dane in tow. I mean...if they're really doing the 'Kingdom Come' Superman...;)

    Correct. No reputable site is running this story. That is the whole source of that casting. Other unreliable sites are just copying from it.

    This is the first details on Burt Ward’s appearance. It’s a vague quote but directly from producer Marc Guggenheim. https://www.gamespot.com/articles/how-arrow-got-the-original-robin-for-its-crisis-on/1100-6468617/ . "It's a cameo where I'm going to leave [whether or not he's Dick Grayson] to the audience, but I think you'll know when you see it," he said. "You won't be wondering."

    John Wesley Shipp posted this with some personal photos on Instagram -
    (may or may not have a surprise this week ;) )

    Might have no connection to this but .... He is the most likely actor to appear in this crossover not to have been officially announced yet. With new announcements every few days, including Elizabeth Tulloch after Comic Con, they must be finalizing contracts and scheduling for filming. I suspect John’s official confirmation is coming soon.

    So it sounds like with Burt Ward, he will have maybe one line, the first word will be "holy," and we smile a bit.

    I just hope they do a little better with Superman, but I doubt it.

    Considering Routh was supposed to be a continuation of the Reeves Superman, this could be interesting. Shame they won’t be able to bring in the DCEU version as well.

    It's a shame Christopher Reeve isn't still alive and able bodied, age wise he would have been an even better fit for the Kingdom Come Superman. And there would have been just the general awesomeness of having him back in the costume.

    What? Captain America came out like a year earlier. (Felt like longer. Wow.)

    I almost came to tears thinking about how awesome it would have been, if Adam West had held on a couple years longer - because you know they would *absolutely* have him in costume playing Kingdom Come Batman later this year...

    Heard a rumor that Michael Keaton was interested, but WB nixed the idea.
