It's a complete shock to me that DC and Warner haven't gathered a brain trust to create the ultimate comedy franchise in Plastic Man. The role is a potential moneymaking opportunity for any comedy star in the US with its toes planted firmly in the cult, family fare, and comic book geeks alike. For some reason Plastic Man has always been the goofiest character of the DC Comics mythos and has also always been the most highly regarded. He's been in the Justice League, hung out with titans like Superman and Batman, is a hit at comic conventions, and here we are with the complete collection of the "Plastic Man" series. There's just something about this goggled stretchy superhero that comic book fans love. And it could be mined in to a film franchise for the whole family. I fondly recall watching "Plastic Man" in the old days of cable television and much of the series has held up very well.

A product of the Scooby Doo era where there was always a goofy gimmick paired with well a meaning band of teenagers, "Plastic Man" is the Scooby Doo of this series who leads the charge against devious villains in a case by case basis. There is no limit to the properties of Plastic Man as he can take the shape and form of literally anything he wants and this sets the show up for goofy scenarios without worrying about violent situations. Plastic Man can be rolled over and dropped from high ledges without breaking a single bone, so this series is great for the self-respecting nerd hoping to introduce the kids to comic book geekdom.
