List of Marvel Promoted Titles for Possible ABC Shows

http://spinoff.comicbookresources.com/2010/10/17/what-other-shows-on-marvels-list-deserve-to-be-made/

• Heroes for Hire (Centering around Luke Cage, sans Iron Fist)
• The Eternals (Focusing on the Kirby backstory of superpowered beings living amongst us in secret inspiring historical myths, rather than any more recent revival)
• Agents of Atlas (The Jeff Parker revival version)
• Alter Ego (A retitled version of Brian Michael Bendis’ Alias)
• Moon Knight (No idea which version of Marvel’s Batman rip-off)
• The Hood (Focused more on the Brian K. Vaughan original series than the character’s latter development in the Avengers books)
• Ka-Zar (Taking the character out of the Savage Land, for budgetary reasons as well as that ever-popular fish-out-of-water dynamic)
• Daughters of the Dragon (The classic Misty Knight/Colleen Wing combo)
• The Punisher (Come on, it’s the Punisher)

I'm wishing for "Alter Ego." Heroes for Hire would be the most open to all the others, though.

Some great ideas for shows. I also think that a "Cloak and Dagger" series could do well.

I'm so on-board with these.
I'd love for the Cage series to be during the 70's.

It's already in development. http://splashpage.mtv.com/2010/10/15/hulk-tv-series-abc-cloak-and-dagger-abc-family/

Also, from that article:

Beyond "Hulk" and "Cloak and Dagger," Marvel is reportedly considering the following properties for television adaptations: "Heroes for Hire," "The Eternals," "Agents of Atlas," "Moon Knight," "Ka-Zar," "Daughters of the Dragon" and "The Punisher."

Should have read that link more carefully in the first post. Ah, well. It's early.

I'm only on my second cup of coffee. Whatever.

Seriously though, this is pretty fucking awesome. I love that these ideas are even being considered. Well, I don't give a shit about the Punisher but you can't have everything.

Yeah, I actually didn't see the Cloak & Dagger thing mentioned. No biggie, and yet so cool to see for the first time.

Alter Ego might be good, but they'd have to really tone it down for network TV. It's a shame they can't use Alias.

I'd love a Heroes for Hire series, but it has to have Iron Fist. I'm not to thrilled about the possibility of one without IF. Also, a Moon Knight series would be the shit.

• Moon Knight (No idea which version of Marvel’s Batman rip-off)
• The Hood (Focused more on the Brian K. Vaughan original series than the character’s latter development in the Avengers books)

I would be all for these^^^ shows. I really don't think that a Punisher series would work on network TV.

If FX had the rights to make a Punisher show, that'd be pretty badass.

^ That could work. I know everyone's gotten used to Ennis/Marvel MAX Punisher, but for the longest time, and still for the most issues of his series, he was "PG-13/TV-14".

FX shows are like HBO without F-bombs. That's the only real difference. A Punisher show on FX wouldn't have to skimp on the violence.
