Anyone see this yet? Don't know if there are any big "Comic Book Geeks" here, but... the movie version of the Viper seems a lot more like DC's "Poison Ivy" character than the Viper (Madame Hydra) of the Marvel Comic's Universe... |

I saw it and liked it, but I'm not really into comic books, so I can't compare it to established story lines and charactors. |

In the Comic Book universe, the Viper is a normal human who possesses Olympic level athleticism and fighting skills. She's also a sociopath. In the movie, she is a mutant immune to poisons and can transfer any poison via a kiss. Although Poison Ivy was never really described as a "mutant" (she gained her powers through an "accident" with toxins -- similar to the spider-bite "accident" experienced by Peter Parker) she basically has the same power. |

I found it entertaining and worth the watch. Just don't overthink it. Great action scenes. |

Enjoyed movie, ignored Non-cannon parts, and thought they did a good job. Don't forget to stay.... additional teaser scene part way through credits. ( but not at very end ) |
