Huntress Becomes the Hunted
The big news this week is that Ivory Madison’s Huntress: Year One inexplicably jumped to the number ten spot on Amazon.com on Monday. This surge in popularity for Huntress has come as surprise to many in the blagobatosphere, even DC Comics, who has yet to issue a statement regarding Helena Bertinelli’s latest feat.
Of course, that doesn’t stop us from speculating. Brian Warmoth from the MTV Splash Page sees this as a clear signal of DC testing the waters to see if America is ready for a real, live-action Huntress movie.
I know that’s not going to happen, but it does get me thinking — instead making a sequel to The Dark Knight following another epic adventure of the Dark Knight, what if we were treated to a series of movies chronicling some of the other major players of Gotham City? What if Huntress, Dick Grayson, and villians such as Mr. Freeze and the Mad Hatter got their own standalone films about their origins that took place between Batman Begins 2 and Batman Begins 3?
Maybe the bigger question is, what if DC had the balls to make as many movies as Marvel?
But like I said, this probably isn’t about a movie at all .
Huntress is increasingly relevant to WWBD as we now have a poll regarding Elisha Cuthbert’s connection (or lack thereof) to the crossbow-wielding crime fighter. Hint, hint.
Nice photoshoppin’!
Also thanks for the blog love, Bill!
No problem, Mikey. I wish I could take credit for this PhotoShop pic.

I would SO see each of those movies.
