2) Doom Patrol
Often seen as DC’s answer to the X-Men (although they are actually slightly older), Doom Patrol similarly consists of a misfit bunch of heroes who consider their abilities more of a curse than a gift.
For instance, one of the longest-running members of the team is Robotman. Once a professional daredevil, he had his brain removed and placed in a mechanical body after he was caught in a racing car accident. The result leaves him invulnerable and super strong… but also prone to depression and existential angst.
Despite the title, Doom Patrol wouldn’t be as grim as something like Batman V Superman, as the series also embraces the wackiness of the superhero genre. Instead, there is the potential to make a really interesting and original movie out of the team, as it could look at the emotional turmoil that suddenly getting superpowers could bring to a person.
