  • Lanterns Critic Reviews NUKE Most WOKE Show Since Watchmen

    From Ubiquitous@3:633/10 to All on Tuesday, August 18, 2026 04:30:44
    Lanterns is a DCU Superhero comic adaptation from Damon Lindelof for
    HBO in the vein of Watchmen. The critic reviews and rotten tomatoes
    love the superhero show without superheroes. Which is an interesting
    idea from James Gunn after Supergirl. Featuring a story coping True
    Detective, do audiences want a superhero show that's down to earth and
    talking about society? Does the audience want to be "educated" by a
    show that hates superheroes in the DCU? Is Lanterns worth watching?

    Democrats and the liberal media hate President Trump more than they
    love this country.

    I?m sure the non-?woke? alternatives are getting a far more
    enthusiastic reception, swallowing up the market and making dough hand-over-fist.

    After all, it?s a free market, isn?t it ...
