If you can't wait for the printed issues, you should be pleased to know that the Injustice 2 prequel comic series is now underway, effectively setting the stage for the events to be played out in the upcoming blockbuster video game.
In recent memory, Marvel has certainly done a fine job of reaching its fan base in exciting new ways. First, there was the announcement that they were taking advantage of GeoTargeting in order to increase foot traffic in comic shops, with word that they're commencing in-theater advertising this spring swiftly following. As for their next endeavor, well, it luckily arrived just in time for their latest major crossover event, Secret Empire.
With the spring premiere of Gotham being just days away, Fox is doing a pretty decent job of getting viewers back into the groove. Earlier this week, an awesome extended trailer was released teasing what's to come in season 3B, with a more Bruce Wayne-centric promo swiftly following it. Now, the network's latest bit of hype comes in the form of a featurette focused squarely on Edward Nygma's transitioning to the Riddler.
While a bidding war is now underway to see which studio will distribute the next entry in the film franchise, some news that's no less exciting has surfaced in the meantime. Granted, it's taking place in a different medium entirely, but you have to admit that James Bond: Origin certainly has the potential to turn many heads.
Much like some of its other DC TV brethren, Supergirl's season finale will be here before you know it. And, if recent reports are to be believed, The CW has one hell of a surprise in store for us.
Now that the spring premiere of Gotham is merely days away, Fox is continuing on adding momentum to the hype train, hoping that as many viewers as possible are willing to climb back on board after a painful three-month hiatus. Sure, the latest promo to come down the pipeline may not be the extravaganza that was the extended trailer released several days ago, but it does its job nevertheless.
Although Marvel's upcoming Generations limited series had much mystery surrounding it for some time - and it still does, for the most part - more details are slowly but surely coming to light. What we do know is that different versions of your favorite heroes will be fighting side by side, namely duos such as Wolverines Logan and X-23, and Thors Odinson and Jane Foster. But what we don't know is how these characters are able to join forces or what the overall threat will be.
By now, you're well aware that a comic book's original solicitation may not always reflect the final product you'll eventually find at your local comic shop. In fact, just yesterday, we brought word that such a thing will happen with Batman #23. But whereas that seems to be a case of a new story overwriting what was initially announced, the developing situation with Nightwing is a bit of a different beast.
It's probably safe to say that the past year or so has been a resounding success for DC Comics. Not only did the Rebirth initiative do wonders when it came to boosting sales, but it also brought back classic elements to their characters' enduring legacies that made readers who may have been disillusioned with the New 52 feel willing to once again climb aboard.
With the final stretch of Arrow season 5 set to commence in less than a week, The CW has released a new trailer in hope of getting viewers primed. And although we probably would've been satisfied with a deeper look at the returning episode alone, the network upped the ante by teasing what's to come for the remainder of the season - with even a few possible looks at the finale.
