Comics Watch: How DC could have its own Westworld
, a dive into how the latest books from Marvel, DC and beyond could provide fodder for the big screen.
. Though the Metal Men are lesser known DC characters, Didio, who previously wrote the characters in the 12-issue, and writer-producer Geoff Johns are well-known Metal Men fans. Given that Warner Bros. is in the process of exploring some of its lesser known characters and out-of-the-box ideas, Metal Men feels like the kind of high-concept property that could bring something new to superhero cinema.Created by Robert Kanigher and Ross Andru, the Metal Men first appeared inNo. 37 .
Previously it was believed that Will Magnus was one of the great minds in the DC Universe and one of the foremost authorities on artificial intelligence thanks to his creation of the Responsometer that animated non-living material and allowed it to develop a brain capable of independent thought. But in today’sNo. 1 it’s revealed that the Responsometer’s allowed Magnus’ robots to take action and react based on his own brain patterns, but were not true A.I, were not living beings.
Where a superhero team of robots with fixed personalities may not be novel enough for an adaptation in a film culture where robots and androids are common explorations, the latest revelation inpresents the opportunity for a new exploration of artificial intelligence. Buried under this utopian idea of robots with humanity is the buried secret of one man’s perversion of science in an effort to work out his own self-importance and self-loathing.
