In case you hadn't heard, Marvel are going ahead with their next big initiative in but a few months, relaunching many of their marquee titles under the "Fresh Start" banner. No doubt capitalizing on some of this year's biggest blockbuster films, we've already learned that books such as Avengers, Venom, Thor and Black Panther will be rolling back to #1 in order to provide accessible jumping on points, to name but a few.
Every year at the Academy Awards, we see those who've made contributions to the film industry honored after their unfortunate passing, whether they have served in front of or behind the camera. So, considering that The Texas Chainsaw Massacre was included in a montage shown earlier in the broadcast, one would assume that respects would've been paid to its director, right?
In a matter of hours, the moment that many of you have been waiting for will arrive when Kid Flash finally boards the Waverider and Keiynan Lonsdale cements himself as a series regular on Legends of Tomorrow. Having already established himself over on The Flash, he'll become the next to have used another Arrowverse series as a springboard to the time traveling ensemble show.
When we think of the Terminator, it stands to reason that the first image which springs to mind is that of Arnold Schwarzenegger. After all, not only was that one of his career's defining roles, but he's also viewed as being the face of the film franchise.

By now, you're probably aware of how much footage didn't make it into the version of Justice League that we ultimately received in theaters, thus leading to demand that the fabled Zack Snyder cut see the light of day.

With Justice League's theatrical run now being behind it and the home video release imminent, we're seeing various intriguing bits of trivia popping up online. Just recently, there was a callback to Doomsday noticed and some cool concept art hinting at a deleted scene involving Lex Luthor, but today, we have something for the devout comic book readers among you.
In recent years, Marvel’s big events have been somewhat reactionary to whatever may be going on in the movies, with Civil War II being a prime example of that. And with the theatrical release of Avengers: Infinity War being just around the corner, many True Believers were probably expecting for some sort of grand cosmic tale to develop. Well, if that was your assumption, then you were 100% correct.
With all the hoopla surrounding Colton Haynes' highly anticipated return to Arrow, it's quite easy to place much focus on his character of Roy Harper. That aside, it looks like next week's episode will boast even more reason to get us geeked.
For several weeks now, we've known that John Constantine will be making yet another appearance on Legends of Tomorrow. I mean, not only was it thrilling to know that we'd be getting to see more of the character, but it also makes sense that he recur because the team are currently dealing with a supernatural villain in the form of Mallus. Granted, it all hinged on the availability of actor Matt Ryan, but we're glad that everything worked out.
Now that Gotham has finally resumed its thrilling fourth season, we're more than ready for Jerome Valeska to make his return next week. In fact, if you also happen to be a fan of Cameron Monaghan's proto-Joker, you should be elated to know that we'll likely be seeing much more of him before the current run wraps.
