Lanterns recently wrapped up its first season, and while it has garnered plenty of well-deserved praise for its story and acting, there’s no denying that there was a surprising lack of green in this Green Lantern show. The Power Ring hardly created any constructs, with the show often opting for more subtle uses and simple […]
Darkseid is easily one of DC’s strongest villains. He’s the New God of Evil and Tyranny, with his ultimate goal being to enslave all life in existence under his horrible rule. He’s best known for chasing down the artifact that could do just that, the Anti-Life Equation, but Darkseid definitely doesn’t need any help to […]
DC has published an astronomical number of comics over the decades. The seeds for their superhero universe were first planted when Superman blasted onto the scene in Action Comics (1938) #1. Nowadays, there are hundreds of heroes who battle for truth, justice, and a better tomorrow in their massive universe, and even more populating the […]
Wonder Woman is one DC’s most popular character, the female superhero who became a superstar and set the standard for every woman who came after her, as well as the ones around her.

Batman is known the world over as the most hyper-competent person to ever dress like a bat. He’s trained day and night for years to reach world-class status in everything that he does. He might not be the best in the world at everything, but he is ranked top ten in practically every skill he […]
Lanterns has become something of a bone of contention among superhero fans since it ended. On the one hand, there’s a part of the fandom that thinks that Lanterns is a fantastic example of what you can do with a superhero story when you don’t look at the source material as a shackle. However, there’s […]
The Absolute Universe is, undeniably, DC’s biggest swing and most successful venture in recent years. Their darker, more intense new world has put its classic heroes on the back foot, forcing them to fight against villainous powers that be. All the while, their greatest enemy, Darkseid, gathers strength to conquer all of reality. These bold, […]

For decades, the League was the team that went […]
