So I'm assuming he's only talking about the characters not working on film and not in comics? Because not only has the man written a few of those characters in their own books, he's done a JLA book. I'm sure he's just doing this because of his new job of being in charge of the Marvel movies made for Fox. I will say this, he may not be too off about some of the costumes looking weird on screen. X-Men and Hawkeye in the Avengers did a great job of toning down a loud costume. He might have something about the flash's "door handle" on the side of his mask. I'd just have them sown in like the logo on the chest. And yes I'm going to go there, please make sure Wonder Woman is wearing pants. I know comic fans fear change but it would be for the better. I just hope Millar is wrong because I'm a DC fan and really a comic book fan in general. I just want to see a good Justice League movie.

Don't pay this guy any attention. He is the biggest egotist and self promotor in an industry filled with those types of people. Upon the release of Superman Returns he talked/ blogged nonstop of how much Bryan Singer ruined the character and shouldn't be making these movies. Fast forward six years and he and Fox don't bring that up. Similarly, prior to the release of The Dark Knight, Millar repeatedly said Batman hit a glass ceiling of profitability with Batman Begins. News flash Millar, excluding The Avengers, Nolan's two sequels out grossed all of Marvel Studios films combined. All success takes is a filmmaker with talent and a desire to work on said film (ex: Nolan, Singer, Vaughn). I'll take that over the overproduced commercials Marvel churns out for their next 'mega feature.'
