DC will be making an announcement, expected to be called DARK CRISIS, on Wednesday Feb 9th. They released this image ahead of time. Very COIE-ish image.

Dammit I just want damn shot of Keaton in the bat suit. Love the Flash’s lenses.

Forget Keaton, Warner Bros just announced what we have ALL been waiting for.... a live action "Wonder Twins" movie is coming to HBO Max!

IDK what this is, maybe two different components of WB being combined? It's unrelated to the Warner Bros/Discovery merger.

I see some on reddit speculating DC could be merged with the Consumer Products division, which is who handles licensing.

That would be interesting to have licensing people run the comics. I suppose at some point if they decided DC printing them was not profitable enough they could license the characters out to other companies to print, like Boom, IDW, Dark Horse, etc.

Who knows lol

what's the name of that comic about the cat named Garfield who loves lasagna but hates Mondays..

The Flash

Heathcliff

Chip Zdarsky will be taking over as the new, long-term HeadWriter of Batman starting with issue 125.

Justice League Incarnate ends, directly setting up 'Death of the Justice League' and 'DARK CRISIS'

Kite Man getting his own animated spin-off series on HBO Max. Hell yeah!

Since we don't have an Image Comics section, thought I'd throw this in here. A pro-wrestling series called 'Do A Powerbomb' coming out this summer

Have grown to dislike Tom King as a DC comics writer...everything is just misery porn...

"What if Guy Gardner was really a woman beater"
"What if The Flash became a mass murderer"
"What if Alfred got violently murdered"
"What if Bruce Wayne had Alzheimers"
"What if Adam Strange was a mass murderer"

"What if Mister Miracle was suicidal"

What if Tom King's fingers rotted off slowly due to the decay of the fucking trash he writes and he was never able to write again!!




dun DUN DUNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

Tom King's "The Human Target" series

nah, Black Label isn't in continuity, every series in it is "it's own thing"

Here's how the Justice League 'dies' to set-up DARK CRISIS

Michael Shannon confirmed to return as Zod in The Flash movie....

I’m happy for that. He was good even though the movie wasn’t. Hopefully he gets to go out in glory.

Batwoman officially canceled at the CW after 3 seasons. Shame. It got a lot better after they got rid of Ruby Rose, and S3 was another improvement over S2.

Not looking good for the chances of Legends of Tomorrow..... I can live without seeing any closure from the "cliffhanger" of Batwoman S3.... but I really want Legends to at least get some episodes to wrap things up (and to see more of Booster Gold).

Legends of Tomorrow officially canceled after 7 seasons :'(

I can't believe it made it that far, and was honestly on its last legs losing cast members left and right.... but pretty gutted that it won't get a proper conclusion to the cliffhangers or a happy ending for the crew.

The Flash and Superman and Lois the only CWverse shows left standing.... I don't see Flash lasting beyond its next season, it has also been dropping cast members like flies and also it just isn't very good anymore.....

Ditto on Superman and Lois, they might end it after S3 too just to close the door on the Arrowverse for good. There was some sort of John Diggle spinoff show in development but I highly doubt it actually happens.

the cw business syndication model doesnt work anymore. its why theyre looking to sell. the cw approach to tv is effectively dead.

We'll always have Beebo

Sadly, the "Wonder Twins" movie has been scrapped already. They were obviously afraid of how much it would outperform The Batman.

only live action wonder twins i want is Olivia Munn and Kevin Pierra

DC Comics has announced the newest member of the Green Lantern Corps -- Jason Todd

Also pictured below are the new GL costumes for Kyle Rayner ('the blind prophet) and John Stewart ('the emerald knight'). Jason Todd will join the GL Corps later this summer.

CW officially cancels Naomi after one season. (I did not watch)

CW officially going ahead with a series order for "Gotham Knights"... some show where Batman is dead and it focuses on his adopted son (a new character for the show, not any of the Robins), Harper and Cullen Row, Spoiler, Carrie Kelly....

Dark Crisis #1, no one wants to be on Jon Kent's new Justice League team

Dunno about a Joker sequel..... we'll see I guess... feel like they should have left it alone...

@ Dark Crisis..... seems like they have events so often now..... and each one is like promised to be the "last one in a long time", but then like six months later there's another big crossover event....

i have no more interest in joker 2 than i would in taxi driver 2 and for the same reasons

They won't ever stop having big events unless WBDiscovery tells them to
Marvel does the same thing with their printed comics

I have zero doubt Dark Crisis will end with some hint at whatever the next year's big event will be...this one doesn't end until December iirc

yeah, 'tis december

I might check out the Young Justice spinoff and some of the one-shots idk

https://aiptcomics.com/ezoimgfmt/i0....cklist-min.jpg

The whole deal with Joker being so ambiguous in terms of what was/wasn’t real doesn’t really set you up for a sequel.

Lady Gaga in talks to play Harley Quinn in Joker 2, and rumours have it being a musical.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">joker 2 as a musical is literally the most chaotic decision any movie studio has ever made. every one that was excited for a sequel is mad. every one that thought a sequel was unnecessary is excited. pure chaos. you love to see it</p>&mdash; Sage Hyden / Just Write (@sagehyden) <a href="https://twitter.com/sagehyden/status/1536721046992302081?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 14, 2022</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

lol yeah. i went from completely disinterested to ravenously interested

100% same tbh. i had zero interest in the first joker movie so have still not seen it (and have seen enough through social media to not need to see it) but this reported decision has earned a lot of goodwill with me for the sequel lol

the climax of the joker is on par with a few good men for films that have a scene so good it demands to be seen. justifies the film its attached to. its an ok film with one of the greatest scenes ever put to screen.


...and it repels the idea of a sequel...but a musical...well...ok. lets go.

the talk show scene?

yes. the build up is obviously important. you couldnt just go in raw and get much out of it (like the scene from A Few Good Men) but its a really oustanding scene.

Tarantino talking about that scene. completely nails it

Have you watched the show? @ drave

I think I watched one or two episodes when I had HBO. Definitely have not watched it enough to know anything about it, other than Ivy & Harley "banging".

Def worth checking out....

Give me your login//password !!!!!

HBO Max does not exist in Canada, sorry. Only "Crave".

Haven't watched any of S2 other than the first episode, but apparently Superman & Lois officially made it clear that it is no longer part of the Arrow/CWVerse, and it is on a world with only Superman.

RIP Arrowverse. It was fun while it lasted. Sometimes. Still gutted Legends of Tomorrow couldn't get a few more episodes to wrap things up. Though I guess ending the show with them all being thrown in time jail is maybe "apropos"?

Meanwhile...

So crazy that they let Bendis ruin the Super Sons by aging Jon up.... I hear that maybe Jon's Superman book is good, but.... clearly so much mileage and brand synergy to get out of the Super Sons. So much so that they are still making a movie with them despite not existing anymore.....

30 years.... damn I'm old....

Love Guardian, will be good to see him back in a story....

The story of how the death of Superman looked from John Henry Iron's perspective: *10 pages of being buried under rubble*

Death of Superman is what got me into comics big time... had comics here and there, but then saw in the newspaper that Superman had died or was going to die and it was like "oh poop I need to see this"

Begged my dad for it and got it.... would then regularly pick up Superman comics at the convenience store (by which I mean my dad would buy them for me).... I didn't know anything at the time about the monthly release schedule so I would always head to the comics in the convenience store and be so excited when I saw a new one....

The Flash S9 officially going to be the last, with a shortened 13 episode season. With Superman & Lois moved out of Arrowverse continuity, the universe will officially be coming to an end. (I highly doubt the announced John Diggle "Justice U" spinoff actually gets made)

Was quite the ride sometimes.

Supposedly the last page of Batman 126 will have people talking this week...Chip Zdarsky's second issue of Bats

Hmmm

Ohhh just finished it!

Can't imagine spending that much time and money on making a movie and then just saying "nah"

Imagine if you will a world in which they just say they are cancelling it and then let the collective internet work its magic and save them 30-40 million in advertising.

I mean I know people who didn't even know they were making a Batgirl movie until now, so that "marketing strategy" will have worked.....

Oh the amount of projects Discovery has canceled since getting ahold of Warner Bros is astounding. They're really taking the axe to a lot of content.

Meanwhile, Ezra Miller continues to work hard to promote the upcoming Flash movie!

Better to release nothing and not damage your image further. The money spent is gone. The opportunity cost of bad films echoing through out time is worse.

Yet somehow that awful looking Gotham Knights show will live on

CW is jointing owned making tied into a contract with both warner and cbs.

Fuck David Zaslav. Batgirl looked good. Made for Love was a great show they left at a cliffhanger. etc. etc. etc.

Marvel will be on like phase 7 or something by the time the rebooted DC gets going.

I cancelled my HBO Max. I'll just torrent House of Dragons, idgaf. /feeling edgelord spiteful.

Torrenting isn't edgelording anymore maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan

HBO Max has decided not to go with it. However, unlike the Batgirl movie, there is apparently still the possibility of shopping it to somewhere else. So I think someone is bound to get it, due to the names involved and because it is Batman.

Damn

I was really looking forward to that too, I hope someone else picks it up

need to watch the Harley Quinn show. Don't sub to HBO right now.

Discovery really putting in quality work right. Its 101 but theyve not missed a step so far. Getting as lean as they can across all of their assets and start getting the debt WB had under control. This stock is a great investment. In ten years this is going to be a very healthy company if they keep doing what theyre doing. Get lean, strategically grow once your debt is handled, then expand. Hopefully they can get some new scripts that wont cost them millions (or start any hilariously bad apps while theyre at it.)

Hard to judge the rumor. His projects are well financed and well marketed so it certainly serves them well. Given his role however we cant surmise anything, good or bad, about him as a visionary.

The key to finding the right guy for the position in question is his grasp on the characters and the cultural perception of those characters. How do you meld who the characters are against who theyre perceived to be in a way that attracts both the initiated and the uninitiated alike.

Couple that with the general perception of "lolDCbad" and its tough for anyone for climb this particular mountain. In all reality DC needs a decade on the shelf for mainstream audiences to forget the stink of the synder run...but thats not in the cards. At all.

I also don't want DC to "Marvel-ize" where all their movies just become comedies and nothing really feels like a movie you'd want to rewatch wver

I think marvel could stand to be less slapstick itself but DC definitely needs to be able to make pictures that are at least fun. The Nolan trilogy is very serious and very dark but theyre still fun movies. The Donnor Superman may be campy but it was a very fun film. Itll make you smile. Fun doesnt have to mean Airplane.
