2. Still No Shocker

It's a small frustration, but given that we've already had a tease of what Bokeem Woodbine's Shocker will look like in his final form it's a little annoying that we haven't yet seen him fully kitted out in the trailers.

Part of that comes from a deep-seated concern that the movie version will steer too close to the - frankly quite silly - look of the comic book villain. He might have been striking but his fishnets look was always a little too goofy to translate into the movie world, and early rumours suggested a fairly close interpretation.

Right now, this is one of the few holes left in the production (aside from details on Donald Glover and Michael Mando's characters), and impatience is pretty much the default setting for comic book movie fans.
