If they do this right I am 100% onboard. The interview makes me at least cautiously optimistic that they understand the property. Hopefully it'll be at least decently kid friendly too as my kids love Doreen a lot.
-ZacWilliam, very curious who the other characters will be... Classic New Warriors like Justice and Speedball or Squirrel Girl adjacent folks like Chipmunk Hunk and Koi Boi...
Or the proverbial ailerons of Titanium Moosebots?

I'd like to see Turbo too. If Squirrel Girl is there, maybe a cameo from the Great Lakes Avengers.

Considering budget for FX, Koi Boy is a LOT more likely than Nova or Firestar, though.

P.S. Add Darkhawk in the inevitable post-premiere cast expansion, please.

Screw those New Warriors, as long as I get an adorable Doreen.

-ZacWilliam, now Nancy and the Brain Guy have actual personalities, but they are both pretty wonderful.

As a NW fan since day one I would really prefer to see something approaching the classic lineup, but the one deal breaker for me is Speedball. If they give me a prominent Speedball and do him justice, they can fill the rest of the cast with whatever stupid losers they want.

Spoiler
Speedball is an absolute must, but Night Thrasher, the leader of team, is not?
So, are you prejudiced against...a helmeted Nightwing on a skateboard?

They'd probably tech out Thrasher as their Iron Man. Or else they'd put Rage in.
I'm thinking they'd only want to out one goofball in there so it's either Speedball or Slapstick but not both, aaaaw.

That is correct.

No, I would very much prefer that he was present. But he's no Speedball. Or Justice, or Firestar, etc.
He seems like a hard sell without significant reinvention. I fear if they did use him, it would be as a target of mockery.

A lot of the original NW lineup are tied up in other properties, not just Nova. Firestar is likely covered by the X-Men license, Namorita with the maybe-untangled-maybe-not Namor rights, Nova's usable but the Nova Corps has already been defined differently.
