Although there continues to be plenty of excitement over Robert Pattinson’s The Batman: Part II, there’s also little doubt that the ongoing delays have begun to frustrate fans and have perhaps dinged the overall anticipation for the movie to a degree. The sequel to 2022’s The Batman was initially expected to hit theaters in October […]
Nightwing is one of DC’s biggest, brightest characters. He’s not quite on the level of Batman and Superman, but his notoriety is just the smallest step below theirs and is easily leaps and bounds above what most characters can claim. Even beyond popularity, he’s someone that everyone likes. Nightwing is a positive guy who combines […]
Although James Gunn’s DCU has been fairly successful so far, with Superman proving to be very popular last summer and the ongoing DCU show Lanterns getting a positive response, especially with the most recent episode, there’s no question that the DC fanbase remains a divided one, as arguments continue to erupt online regarding whose approach […]
The DCU is still in its very early days, with only a handful of movies and TV shows having been released since the franchise properly kicked off with the launch of Superman last year. While some projects have been retconned into the DCU, like The Suicide Squad, Blue Beetle, and Creature Commandos, the only officially […]
Origin stories are an essential part of superhero comics. Heroes and villains alike live or die based on their character and what fuels them. Batman wouldn’t be half as interesting without his parents’ death being his driving force, for example. Origin stories have to act as a thesis statement for who a character is and […]
Many DC fans are currently focused on Lanterns, or perhaps eager to see the DCU’s first R-rated horror movie Clayface, but what is sure to be the franchise’s next biggest blockbuster is just around the corner. Specifically, the sequel to 2025’s Superman, Man of Tomorrow, is slated to hit theaters on July 9, 2027, and […]
The first episode of Lanterns dropped a bombshell on the larger DCU franchise, revealing that one of the most beloved superheroes in the franchise was dead. When the body of Kyle Chandler’s Hal Jordan was discovered at a football stadium in 2026, it set the stage for a really distinct mystery, one that sent fans […]
Currently, the DCU is still rolling out episodes of Lanterns, which has proven to be impressively popular despite the existing Green Lantern history in the larger DC franchise. However, James Gunn is seemingly wasting no time filling his DCU with myriad shows and movies, with Man of Tomorrow coming out next year, a Wonder Woman […]
Matt Reeves changed how people saw the Dark Knight when The Batman arrived in theaters in March 2022, delivering a detective-driven take on Bruce Wayne (Robert Pattinson) that pulled in a massive $772.3 million worldwide. The film’s critical reception surpassed its commercial dominance, with The Batman being universally acclaimed. It’s no wonder Reeves became a […]
The DC franchise has had a very long and complex history that dates long before Zack Snyder began making DCEU movies, but perhaps because of the prominence of that era and the fact that James Gunn’s DCU is still just beginning to make its mark, debates remain heated regarding whether Snyder’s DCEU (or “the Snyderverse“) […]
