7 Community Alumni Who Went On To Work In Sci-Fi
4. Joel McHale
Joel McHale's Jeff Winger came across as one of the most "normal" aspects of Community. A smarmy lawyer stuck going to Community College, Jeff, especially at first, feels like he doesn't belong in this strange place with these strange people. However, as the show goes on and Jeff grows up, he learned to embrace the weirdness of his school.
Hopefully, McHale took the lessons Jeff learned to heart, as he's set to appear in the DC sci-fi superhero series Stargirl. The DC Universe original series, based on the DC comic book of the same name, follows Courtney, a high school student who discovers that her step-father was once the sidekick to a great superhero and decides to follow in his footsteps. McHale will appear as the original Starman, who once used Courtney's anti-gravity staff.
Before the series premiere, a few characters appeared in the Arrowverse Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover event, involving multiple timelines. If only Abed had caught the die, Crisis on Infinite Earths would never have happened.
