The Question vs Rorschach
Nice presentation, but you didn't mention that before The Question, there was Mr. A, also created by Steve Ditko.
Also, your video clips are labelled "Justice League;" The Question appeared in episodes of the spinoff "Justice League Unlimited."
If there's a guy named the Question, could there be a guy named the Answer?
i love the question. wish he was in more stuff.
He figured out Batman's identity before he even met him and mocked Bruce Wayne's fear of bats. By saying that, "We sometimes become what we most fear." to Batman's face. Telling us that he already knew who Batman really was.
Underrated AF
That is the question
DC Rebirth needs to reboot him to his original self. Then give him an ongoing book. Put Renee Montoya back in gotham where she belongs.
All I can think about when I see this guy is him singing while throwing a potted plant through a glass window.
In recent years he's had more appearances in Batman, even "accidentally" killing the Riddler.
4:25 and pause it, naughty comics :3
I hope the Question meets Rorschack in Doomsday Clock.
According to Alan Moore, he wasn't "part" of the inspiration, he IS the inspiration. So Rorschach displays Question like tendencies.
Omg I think he should get his own cartoon series but I would not go as far as movie.
Do one on ORION THE DOG OF WAR
This guy seems… Familiar
That last origin change sucks yak ass. If they take the journalist origin and run with it, this would be an amazing Tv show, especially with the climate we're in. Everyone is looking for secrets, no one trusts facts, and everyone is an amateur detective on their phones. He could be written in the same vein as V for Vendetta, mixed in with some Conspiracy Theory (Mel Gibson), add to that The Sixth Sense style mystery and suspense and you've got a Marvel tv show killing machine on your hands
The Question is awesome
wish he wasnt gay..
Not a fan of the female counter part just doesn't have crazy theorist personality quark going for her.
