Though the upcoming Titans series may contain a few oddballs such as Hawk and Dove, it can at least lay claim to featuring quintessential team members such as Robin, Beast Boy, Raven and Starfire. But as the show continues to grow, it only makes sense that the producers add more characters from the comic books to the mix.
Although the Batman film franchise has brought joy to millions of people since 1943 (oh yes, we’re counting the serials starring Lewis Wilson), it's certainly had its ups and downs. After all, they each can’t be The Dark Knight Trilogy.
Yesterday, Arrowverse fandom was shaken to its core upon learning that Keiynan Lonsdale will be departing Legends of Tomorrow after appearing in only the premiere episode of season 4. Naturally, such news causes viewers to conclude a character is being killed off - and if you don't think a major player can bite the dust so early on, we ask that you remember what happened to Sara Lance at the start of Arrow season 3.
Normally, you'd expect for Justice League to be DC's flagship book, but more often than not, it's merely a cool team-up title headlined by the publisher's most popular characters. To be honest, that's how it's pretty much been since Geoff Johns vacated the driver's seat before the launch of Rebirth, though it appears Scott Snyder is restoring the series to such prominence. I mean, it remains to be seen if he'll match what Johns or Grant Morrison have accomplished - or even what he himself achieved during his Batman days, for that matter - but I've got a positive feeling about what lies ahead.
Well, it's looking like that revolving door on the Waverider just can't stop spinning because Wally West will be be packing up and leaving before you know it. Yes, he may have just joined the cast of Legends of Tomorrow during the back half of season 3, but it's now become known that Kid Flash won't be sticking around for much longer.
Since first debuting as a cartoon in The New Yorker all the way back in 1938, The Addams Family have captured the hearts and imaginations of people the world over in the decades to follow. Of course, the live action TV series from the '60s and, to an extent, the animated followup from Hanna-Barbera in the '70s can largely be credited for kickstarting their mainstream popularity, but each interpretation has its place in history.
With superhero crossovers being all the rage these days – especially when it comes to the DC TV side of things – many fans were understandably champing at the bit for Black Lighting to unite with the Arrowverse upon its addition to The CW’s prime time lineup. Not to be a downer, but we’ve been given several reassurances that such a thing is not on the immediate horizon in the time since Jefferson Pierce started tearing it up on the small screen.
The great thing about the Arrowverse is that with it being so expansive, it hasn’t limited itself to live action television and, in the past few years, it’s also spilled over into the comic book realm as well as animation. When it comes to the latter, much success was found with Vixen, which was first presented as a web series that spanned two seasons before being cut together as one seamless direct-to-video movie.
Not to be outdone by a loose-lipped Zack Snyder, Suicide Squad director David Ayer has been quite generous with fans as of late, having recently confirmed Easter eggs and sharing some interesting trivia. Not surprisingly, the trend continues thanks to - what else? - social media.
Normally, when we think of the Avengers, the core made up by Iron Man, Thor and Captain America are among the first characters to spring to mind. But over the course of the past fifty or so years, we've seen other superheroes come through the door such as the Hulk, Wasp, Hawkeye and Doctor Strange.
