At least for a while.
Speaking at length on theHappy Sad Confusedpodcast, Gunn was first asked about his favorite origin story in comics.

And I like it when the robber doesnt get caught.
I really love Batmans origin in terms of a simple story… [its] the ultimate origin story.
But, alas, he does not.
Ill say that much.
I have no plans.
I am myself sick of seeing Superman and Batman and Spider-Mans [origins].
But Gunn, being the smart open-minded filmmaker he is, did add one more thing.
But someone could come along and surprise me and do it in a way thats cool, he said.
You just never know.
EvenHarley Quinnhad a spin recently.
