35 Strange Comic Book Moments We Won’t See On-Screen Any Time Soon

Modern-day comic book movies have evolved beyond anything fans could have dreamed of back in the 1980s, 1990s and even early aughts. Could you imagine telling someone in 1997 watching Batman & Robin that in the near future not one, but two, actors would win Oscars for playing The Joker? Or that a true comic-book-style interconnected cinematic universe would become the biggest box-office sensation we’ve ever seen and practically push everything else out of theaters? 

Audiences seem primed for whatever comic-book-related thing that could possibly get thrown at the screen. That said, we’ve managed to find some comic-book moments that we don’t expect to see on Disney+ any time soon. Sometimes, it’s something inane like two unlikely characters hooking up. Sometimes, it’s extremely problematic storytelling from the early days of superheroes. And sometimes, it’s even stranger than that.
