James Gunn and Peter Safran have no doubt that they’ll have to push their boundaries if they are to harbor any hopes of making the DC Universe a success that can go on to challenge the Marvel Cinematic Universe. After the DC Extended Universe’s dismal run, there is a lot of pressure on this franchise to deliver.
No wonder that they are trying to get everything right. And one step in that direction is getting the cast right. For now, it seems like Iñaki Godoy might be perfect for one role in the new franchise.

Fans love a good violent Batman movie once in a while, but when a promising animated film gets censored after it proved to be the perfect avenue to channel the grim and grotesque nature of the franchise, it surely was a massive disappointment for the audience.
Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker almost gave fans what they wished for, but after a tragic shooting accident that happened in 1999 at the Columbine High School, the media’s portrayal of violence was put in question. This forced Warner Bros to distribute a censored version, while the original cut was released later in 2002.

Bruce Timm is an iconic American artist and animator who has been credited with creating the Dcau as we know it today. With a plethora of animated shows to his name, Timm is also one of the creators of Batman: The Animated Series!
With aging characters in the animated show, Bruce Timm was asked a question about why characters in Batman: The Animated Series aged. To answer, Timm simply said that aging the character was the simplest solution in introducing another character while keeping the fan favorites in their spot!

Bruce Timm is known for creating some of the most iconic shows of the DC Animated Universe. He was the mastermind behind legendary shows such as Batman: The Animated Series, Superman: The Animated Series, Justice League, and Batman Beyond. Timm was also instrumental in producing animated films with the DC comic book characters including Batman: Under the Red Hood and The Dark Knight Returns.
While developing the animated shows for DC and WB, Timm reportedly set a proper continuity for the Dcau and even went as far as setting Batman Beyond in the future to protect the established canon. However, the one thing he reportedly did not plan was incorporating villains from Batman and Superman into the Justice League.

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League has been downright disappointing for fans of Rocksteady’s previous works and DC fans in general, too. Even before the game came out, fans were not happy with the game being live-service, and after its release, the game seems to be on a steep decline.
Season 1 of the title was also announced with a Season Pass that seemed to be a silver lining in the dark cloud that was the game’s release. But, as the game moves forward in its life cycle, it seems to be getting more things wrong than it is getting right. One of those things is the spoiler that was floated on social media.

The animated show Teen Titans was a classic that introduced a whole new generation to the eponymous group of superheroes from DC Comics. Created by Glen Murakami, the show aired from 2003 to 2009, spanning five seasons and multiple spinoffs and movies. The show has been regarded as a classic among other DC animated media such as Batman: The Animated Series.
The show was known for its treatment of Robin as a solo hero rather than a sidekick to Batman, its anime-inspired tone, and its mature treatment of the characters. One of the major changes that Murakami made with the show was to not give any secret identities to the superheroes as he wanted children to identify with their characteristics rather than their identities.

When making The Dark Knight films, Christian Bale and Christopher Nolan had a pact that they would walk away if they were fortunate enough to make three films. The pair stayed true to this vision and concluded their Batman adventure after The Dark Knight Rises. But if Nolan were to make a potential fourth film in the series, one fan had the perfect villain and actor suggestion for the Oppenheimer director.
Fan creates a trailer for a potential fourth film in Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight trilogy
The fan made a concept trailer in 2012 with clips from previous films and chose The Riddler as the villain for the film. The fan’s choice of actor to play The Riddler was the Oscar-winning actor Casey Affleck. While the fan’s idea of a fourth film never came to fruition, it still has a lot of potential.

Quick, name a superhero with a more cynical perspective than Batman. Okay, sure there’s Spawn, but I meant in mainstream comics. Yeah, Punisher, but how about in DC Comics? Sure, there’s John Constantine. But I mean a character less suitable for Christmas stories. What’s that you say? Constantine once crushed the bones of St. Nicolas and snorted them into a powder? And Lobo murdered Santa?
Okay, the point is that Batman doesn’t seem like the type of guy who would make for a good Christmas story. Spider-Man can deliver presents while swinging across New York City and Superman has carried Santa’s slay more than once, but Mr. Vengeance doesn’t even like leaving Gotham. Why would he bother with the North Pole?

Viewers of Merry Little Batman meet Damian Wayne as the lovable scamp who chases his cat Selina through the halls of stately Wayne Manor, decked in a blanket for a cape and a brown paper bag for a cowl, just like his dear old dad, Batman. The delightful holiday special imagines Damian as a good-hearted soul who wants nothing more than to be like his pop, and doesn’t even get too upset at his father’s overprotective demands. When the Joker returns to Gotham while Batman is trapped in the Arctic, Damian gets his chance to prove that he deserves to be called “Son of the Bat.”
But comic book readers first met Damian under very different circumstances. In a 1987 graphic novel by Mike W. Barr and Jerry Bingham, Batman reluctantly joins forces with eco-terrorist Ra’s al Ghul to take down the assassin Quain. During the alliance, Batman...

This Blue Beetle article contains spoilers.
At the start of Blue Beetle’s second act, protagonist Jaime Reyes (Xolo Maridueña) asks an important question: “Who the hell was Blue Beetle?”
A lot of viewers wondered the same thing when the Warner Bros. movie came to theaters earlier this year and they’ll likely be asking it again now that the movie is streaming on Max. People don’t ask that same question of Superman, Batman, or Wonder Woman, but not because Blue Beetle is at best a C-lister in the DC Comics bullpen. Rather it’s because the man behind the Blue Beetle mask has changed several times since Charles Nicholas Wojtkoski debuted the character in 1939.
The big-screen adaptation introduces Blue Beetle as Jaime Reyes, who is a recent college grad forced to the superhero identity after receiving an alien scarab from Jenny Kord (Bruna Marquezine), the daughter of inventor Ted Kord,...

The live-action Titans series had tremendous potential, from its source material to the pedigrees of the talent bringing the heroes to television. Titans failed to work from the first episode to the last. As a television series, it needed a bigger budget for better effects, and the caliber of actors needed to be stronger to pull off these larger-than-life personalities.
Most of the storylines were drawn from Marv Wolfman and George Pérez’s seminal run from the early 1980s or the early issues from Geoff Johns and Mike McKone’s run in the 2000s. Both required a consistent tonality along with a budget to make the scope of the stories work.
In the fourth and final series, out now on disc from Warner Home Entertainment, the series tackled both Lex Luthor and Brother Blood. Either one could easily have been the Big Bad for these last dozen episodes, but they split the focus and,...

The superhero comic books of Marvel and DC use a static timeline, where no characters permanently age. That's what makes "Batman Beyond" so unique; following in the thematic footsteps of "The Dark Knight Returns," the show depicted a Bruce Wayne who'd aged out of the cowl. In his place, he trained teenage Terry McGinnis as the new Dark Knight. The film "Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker" even provided a definite end for "Batman: The Animated Series," showing via flashback the final battle between the original Batman and the Joker; the latter abducts Robin (Tim Drake) and tortures/brainwashes him into "Joker Junior." Tim ultimately snaps and kills the Joker with his own spear gun.
However, the next DC Animated Universe series, "Justice League"/"Justice League Unlimited," went back to the "present"/contemporary era. This left the creators constrained by what they established in "Batman Beyond" — or did it?

The hierarchy of power in the DC Universe is actually changing. James Gunn and Peter Safran are moving closer and closer to unleashing their brand-new take on DC's movie and TV properties, and there is a lot to be excited about. At long last, we're getting a modern "Swamp Thing" movie, Superman is returning to his dorky form, there will be new animated shows, and so much more.
Arguably the most thrilling part of this new DC Universe has to do with Batman. Now, to be fair, we've only just gotten an excellent Batman movie courtesy of Matt Reeves and we've never really stopped seeing Batman in TV and film, so it's understandably hard to argue that yet another Batman is the coolest part of a brand-new universe — especially when there will also be a "Booster Gold" TV show.

There is a new DC cinematic universe on the horizon, and there is plenty to be excited about. For one, Gunn promises to "elevate" DC writers and make sure scripts are ready before cameras start rolling, which already feels like a game-changer for superhero movies. We also got a slate announcement with a surprising variety to it, with movies and shows of very different tones all belonging to the same universe.
Arguably the most exciting part of the announcement was Gunn's general enthusiasm for comic books. Not only did he name-drop specific books (that later sold out in great numbers), but many of the titles in the slate are inspired by iconic comic-book runs — hopefully in a more direct way than most movies until now, which just bastardize the source material until it is unrecognizable. Sure, as I've argued before, all of this is already done in the animated DC movies,...

James Gunn, co-ceo of DC Studios, finally made the announcement this week that DC has the next decade entirely mapped out with new and exciting projects that they’ll be bringing to the big and small screen. Gunn made fans incredibly happy with the announcement of 10 new movies and tv shows all set to air within the next 8-10 years, as well as confirmed that audiences won’t have to wait years to see any of this new content since the next 4 movies (all set to air this year) will still be connected to the bigger DC Universe that Gunn is attempting to create.
That said, Gunn also confirmed that any other projects that the studio makes will be set outside the connected Dcu and will take place under a new label known as DC Elseworlds. This isn’t to be confused with the long-running DC Elseworlds comic-book run which...

Gotham Knights is destined to be controversial, but the game does deserve quite a bit of credit for featuring an extensive co-op mode that allows you to team up with friends and take on the Gotham underworld together. Like so many other aspects of Gotham Knights, though, the game’s co-op multiplayer mode is hindered by some questionable design decisions that will limit how many people actually get to enjoy that feature.
So while you may be one of those unfortunate players who won’t be able to properly enjoy Gotham Knights‘ multiplayer due to a few key restrictions, here’s what you need to know about how to unlock and use that feature in the first place.

Gotham Knights might look like an Arkham game, but the new action-adventure title is actually a completely new Batman adventure that even features a new cast of characters and voice actors.
We’ll have a lot to say about Gotham Knights in the coming days, but the quality of the game’s cast really is one of the game’s greatest assets. This is a slightly deeper dive into the Batman roster than we’re used to seeing in games, which means that the game gives us the chance to spend some time with some faces we’re not always used to seeing. Of course, it’s the voices of those characters as much as their faces that really sell how much they belong to be the stars of an unlikely Gotham adventure.

If there is one superhero show that has outlasted its expiration date, it may be "Titans." After three seasons, it seems the gritty affair will indefinitely struggle to land its lofty ambitions in a satisfying way. Despite some great ideas and themes, I've found myself wanting a lot more out of the series by the time the credits roll in each season finale. But here we are, another season is well on its way and approaching quicker than ever (or at least it feels like it).

Judging by the recent trailer, "Titans" may just be finding its stride in balancing zany superhero stuff and a horror-tinged storyline. However, I know what promises are worth. Expectations aren't sky-high this time around,...

With three seasons under its belt, "Titans" returns to HBO Max next month to face supernatural cults, maniacal supervillains, and a very familiar face. In anticipation of its November debut, the streaming service has released a full-length trailer that pulls the veil over the jam-packed season. Among many things, the introduction of Lex Luthor (Titus Welliver), who finds himself at the center of the Cult of Blood, as well as the live-action debut of Brother Blood (Joseph Morgan). Moreover, an antagonist from the second season finally makes his long-awaited return, and I'm personally glad he's back.
I'll let the footage of the blood-soaked trailer speak for itself, which can be seen below in its entirety.

The official trailer for Titans Season 4 is here, and it looks like a major step up from Titans Season 3.
The team goes toe-to-toe with plenty of villains, including Lex Luthor (Titus Welliver), Brother Blood (Joseph Morgan), and plenty more.
Lex is a considerable presence in the trailer as Welliver promises to deliver a different iteration of Lex.
“Welcome to the ancient world, Mr. Luthor. Soon the gods will know your name," we hear someone say.
“I can assure you — the gods already know me," Lex fires back.
Franka Potente is also on board as Mother Mayhem, and it looks like this villain came prepared.
Titans Season 4 will debut with two episodes on November 3.
A midseason finale will air Thursday, December 1, while the second batch of episodes will launch sometime in 2023.
Titans Season 4 also stars Brenton Thwaites as Dick Grayson/ Nightwing, Mame-Anna Diop as Kory Anders/Starfire, Teagan Croft as Rachel Roth/Raven,...

I wish I wasn’t such a sucker for books like this but c’mon, who can’t resist picking up a book called this, with a cover like this, and featuring the blurb ‘father vs son for the fate of the Dcu’. That was enough to reel me in, but when I saw that Mark Waid was writing this, I was all in. I tend to find that Waid always understands his characters so well, so he can take a throwaway editorial edict and actually make it not only work but also add something extra to the mythology.
Let’s be honest, though, Batman has been in conflict with Robin from the start. He fell out with Dick Grayson, has had a rocky relationship with Tim Drake, struggles to control Damian Wayne, and let’s not get started on Jason Todd.

On the heels of the reveal that Titus Welliver will appear in Titans Season 4 as no less than Lex Luthor, we now have a few more teasers to chew on.
First, a refresher: Titans‘ Season 3 finale saw the titular team divide and conquer, applying their particular sets of skills to save the people of Gotham who had already been killed by Jonathan Crane’s poison, and then busting into Wayne Manor to stop the Big Bad from wreaking further havoc. Once that threat was neutralized, Crane was put back behind bars, and Jason Todd — despite giving the Titans a big...

This Batman article contains spoilers.
Writer Chip Zdarsky and artist Jorge Jimenez kick off a new era of Dark Knight comics with today’s Batman #125. The issue is the first part of their “Failsafe” arc, which Zdarsky described in his newsletter as “Batman’s Doomsday. It’s non-stop action and puts Batman in a very different place by the end of it.” The keyword here is “Doomsday,” which should set off alarm bells inside the heads of Batfans who were around in the ’90s when a villain of the same name killed Superman. Is this new dynamic duo starting their run on Batman by taking Bruce Wayne completely off the board?
Well, someone does meet their untimely end in this issue but it isn’t the Dark Knight.
First, some context: one of Batman’s oldest rogues is murdering Gotham City’s wealthiest citizens, but this isn’t the usual get-rich-quick scheme.

While the last few weeks have seen several DC shows canceled at The CW — including Legends of Tomorrow, Batwoman, and Naomi — at least one new superhero series will hit the network next year: Gotham Knights. The new show follows the next generation of heroes to rise up in Gotham City after the death of Batman. Chief among these new vigilantes is Bruce Wayne’s adopted son, Turner Hayes (Oscar Morgan), who must take up his father’s mantle in order to keep his city safe from whoever is trying to frame him and a whole cavalcade of characters from the comics for Batman’s murder.
If the chance to see several characters from the Bat mythos in live-action for the first time isn’t exciting enough to get you excited, The CW has just dropped the show’s very first trailer, which promises lots of crime-fighting, a bit of Riverdale-style teen angst,...

Fans of a certain age will never forget a few great cinematic “almosts” in Batman movie history. Billy Dee Williams played Harvey Dent in Tim Burton’s first Batman movie, but we never got a chance to see his Harvey become the villainous Two-Face. Robin was supposed to appear in that film and then again in its sequel, but we never got to see how he would have looked on the big screen under Burton’s direction. And perhaps most famously, Michael Keaton never returned for a third turn as the Dark Knight after 1991’s Batman Returns.
But DC is giving fans the next best thing with Batman ’89, a comic book that is the closest thing to Tim Burton’s Batman III as we’ll ever get. Taking place a couple of years after Batman Returns, the series depicts Harvey Dent’s Two-Face origin and introduces a new Robin worthy...

A new era begins for Batman and DC Comics in July. Comic Book has revealed that beloved Marvel writer Chip Zdarsky and Jorge Jimenez, one of the best artists working at DC Comics today, are teaming up as the new creative team of the main Batman series. Their run begins with Batman #125, an oversized issue that kicks off the “Failsafe” arc, which Zdarsky described in his newsletter as “Batman’s Doomsday. It’s non-stop action and puts Batman in a very different place by the end of it.”
According to Comic Book, “Failsafe” begins with Bruce suffering from nightmares of a future he thinks may come to pass, and he may not live long enough to stop it. The arc will feature a “startling enemy from Batman’s past” who intends to kill Batman once and for all.

In a landmark moment in comic book history, Jonathan Kent — the son of Clark Kent, aka Superman, and Lois Lane — is coming out as bisexual on the pages of DC Comics, the publisher announced on Monday, which is also National Coming Out Day.
Jon Kent, currently known as “the Superman of Earth,” will come out in the Nov. 9 issue of “Superman: Son of Kal-El #5” when he starts a romantic relationship with reporter Jay Nakamura — indicating the Kryptonian apple does not fall far from the tree.
The decision to have the superhero currently carrying the mantle of the Man of Steel come out as bisexual is the most high-profile example yet of comic book publishers expanding the scope of LGBTQ representation within their pages. In August, DC published an issue in which Tim Drake — aka Robin, Batman’s loyal sidekick — also came out as bisexual. Other major LGBTQ comic characters include DC’s Batwoman,...

It's becoming challenging to root for Dick.
Titans Season 3 Episode 11 put his worst traits on full display, and while it's understandable he didn't want anyone to be harmed in the scuffle with Red Hood, he needed to understand that the team needs to be united to face this threat.
When you have someone in a position of power, you need to be at ease with their decisions, and Dick always seems to be going rogue these days, leading me to believe Titans Season 3 will wrap with a new leader of the superhero group.
Going into battle with Red Hood, he did have plenty of weapons at his disposal, but he failed to realize just how much the citizens of Gotham are anti-Titans, and that could be his ultimate undoing.

Scarecrow is one of the most manipulative characters on all of TV.
His plan all along has been to bring Gotham City to its knees, and after the events of Titans Season 3 Episode 8, he might well have gotten his wish.
Dosing the entire water supply is a big swing, but the fact that the Titans were witnessed at the location, well, it seems like the show is setting the heroes back up as the pariahs of the city.
It would happen eventually, but with the entire city able to take their fears away by drinking water, it will open up a whole new level of carnage for everyone involved.
Scarecrow hasn't been the best villain, but he has had some interesting beats. He can fly off the handle without a second thought. Shooting Tim highlighted as much.

The big comic book news this week is that Batman’s sidekick Tim Drake — the current Robin, in case you aren’t up on the incredibly convoluted lore of Bat-pals — is bisexual. And on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” Thursday, show writer Louis Virtel weighed in on that big announcement, the history of queer comic characters and the sexual orientation of a classic Bat-villain.
First, if you want to know more, you can read a breakdown here. Now back to Louis Virtel, who is also well known as a comedian and a former “Jeopardy!” contestant. He talked about it during a segment called “Virtel It Like It Is,” during guest host Sarah Silverman’s monologue.

The “Titans” trailer for its long-awaited third season features the introduction of the show’s three new characters, and a return to one very famous city.
The DC Comics series, which moved from DC Universe to HBO Max, will premiere its third season on Aug. 12.
The third season features Curran Walters, who plays Jason Todd (aka the second Robin after Dick Grayson hangs up the mantle to become Nightwing), become his more villainous alter-ego Red Hood, who wants to take over Gotham following the apparent retirement of Batman (Iain Glen).

The DC Comics series, which moved from DC Universe to HBO Max, will premiere its third season on Aug. 12.

HBO Max has released a first look teaser for the new season of the popular superhero series, which premieres on Thursday, August 12.
