Description: This week, GeekCypha opens with Tetteh putting the crew on the spot with a question every comic fan has wrestled with: Which comic book character did you despise at first, only to turn into a fan later on? The conversation moves quickly into the week's heaviest geek news, starting with Murderbot Season 2 officially rolling into production alongside new cast additions. Things get chaotic during the D23 2026 recap when Marvel Studios unveils its official X-Men ensemble—and Brian immediately sets the room off by declaring he has zero desire to see another Charles Xavier on the big screen. That hot take leads straight into a debate over Inde Navarrette landing Rogue, as the squad argues whether turning down Heat 2 and a cool $2.5 million check for a horror film was a brilliant sacrifice or a missed bag. Over in the DC universe, HBO's Lanterns officially claims the crown as the highest-rated DCU project on Rotten Tomatoes, setting up the main event of the show: an honest, no-filters breakdown and premiere reaction to the Lanterns debut to see if the new Green Lantern series actually lives up to all the high-flying hype.
