What comic book characters do NOT need to be adapted?
In contrast to the other thread, which states that there are many characters that can and should be adapted into live action, is there any that you think should never go beyond pen and ink, or even have been created to begin with?

Re: What comic book characters do NOT need to be adapted.
I'd like to see Sentry done at some point but as more of a satirical deconstruction as he was intended.

I Think the question is: "Need to NOT be adapted"

Re: What comic book characters do NOT need to be adapted.
To the person who mentioned Harley Quinn, I'd love to see her as a psychopath who follows the Joker around. Just me, though.
I've always disliked Rhino for some reason. Just a generic meathead vilain to me. |

Re: What comic book characters do NOT need to be adapted.
The Sentry would work in an avengers sequel maybe playing off the original mini series. Make it a mystery playing off how nobody remembers him and they should and it turns out he's the villain in the end.
As far as characters that would never make it to film Maggot from the X-men |
