On July 17th , Girl Meets World bare an episode yell “ Girl gather the New Teacher . ” The root word were literature , comic strip , and good versus immorality . None of that would have been remarkable if they had n’t used The Dark Knight Returns as the centerpiece . On a Disney Channel show .
In volley of double - timeliness , “ Girl Meets the New Teacher ” practice both The Dark Knight regaining and To vote down a Mockingbird , two works cause a lot of attention correctly now . In the context of use of Girl meet World , Frank Miller ’s comic is used as a lesson architectural plan of a new teacher , Harper Burgess . She use comic to hash out the grey nature of good versus iniquity — the show casts her as Batman and the head as Superman . The idea was that , like heroes , both the teacher and the principal have the same aim ( save the world / teach children ) , but wildly different approach . Hence two people on the side of “ good ” fighting each other .
Note : Please do n’t debate me on The Dark Knight Returns , this is the deterrent example the show used .
For fans of Boy fulfil World , the instalment was meant to mimic that show ’s installment “ Back 2 School , ” which had raw teacher Mr. Turner using the X - Men as his example plan . So , in some ways , I imagine this is mirror symmetry : the old show did Marvel , this one did DC .
It ’s still amazing to me that a show on the Disney Channel , when Disney owns Marvel , put so much focus on a DC book . And one that ’s infamously dark , which is n’t revolutionary for the creators of male child and Girl cope with World , but is a little more out of step with the Disney Channel .
And then , there ’s the complete mindscrew that is a Disney show not only using a moody DC comedian as the structure of an instalment , but that they used a comic that is also the base for Warner Bros. and Zack Snyder ’s upcoming epic Batman v Superman : Dawn of Justice . Yeah . A Disney show just gave their version of Dark Knight Returns before the giant flick come in out .
Either the makers of Girl meet World have a lot of creative freedom — excellent ! — or Disney is so unassailable in Marvel as a marque that they just shrug at give other superhero motion-picture show any public press .
