Bendis goes out of his way to mention there being 7 Crises again in Action Comics this week, he's brought this up in Young Justice too...
And Naomi's next couple issues are supposed to reveal her ties to the mulitiverse and Bendis has said it's something new that he hopes will affect the DCU for years. I wonder if Bendis is eventually setting up all his various books to his own big event, tied to the reason behind their being 7 crises maybe? Maybe Naomi, w/e her secret is, Gemworld, Young Justice, Leviathan, Justice League involved? |

Last week's Aquaman was so good. Introduced a whole new pantheon of sea gods and gave the DCU a new 'origin' of creation from it. Very cool art. Would 100% recommend.

Very behind in Justice League.... still haven't read the Drowned Earth thing.... which means I am behind in Aquaman too....
Probably won't pick up the newest Heroes in Crisis until next week, because a new Doomsday Clock is coming out then, so I might as well wait another week before going to the local comic bookery |

Shazam #3 good
King Kid seems like he might be 'nefarious' and 'devious' but whole book is very colorful/fun/charming |

I wonder who will be the new Flash when Ezra Miller gets fired for being a dumb douche.

First look at Stargirl from the upcoming show (part of S.T.R.I.P.E. in the background):
Looks pretty good. Easily the best looking of the live action Stargirls. |

Looks like Brie Larson got in Captain America's closet and carved up his clothes to her liking and then went to the prom.

Some horseshit WB's always been on regarding how they handle TV and movie representations of characters. They have been at this for a looooong time, despite countless examples of inconsistencies.

Didn't they also specifically go out of their way to not call Batman Batman when referenced in Arrow (ie: "that lunatic in Gotham City")? I don't understand why some characters are so sacrosanct but others are shoehorned in or namedropped incessantly.
I mean, I *get* the issues Marvel had with stuff like that, given the history of divided rights, but DC seems to just impose these restrictions arbitrarily among whatever project they're putting out, be it theatrical, live action TV, or various animated incarnations. |

They cut filming on that show 3 episodes early and apparently their universe is in question according to my Facebook feed

it's not that grim; it's 'in question' only because it may get absorbed into the broader warner bros streaming service to consolidate the subscriber base. plenty of reports note the dcu service itself is outpacing the expectations they had for it. if they keep up the quality found in doom patrol then opening the service up to a wider potential audience shouldn't be a bad thing

Tom King said on Twitter he's received death threats after the latest issue of Heroes In Crisis.

to be totally honest i don't really care what happens to the service or any of the other shows, so long as doom patrol survives on some platform for many seasons to come

doom patrol is honestly one of the best shows being produced right now period
titans was good - i was really stoked on it when it first landed - but doom patrol made me readjust my scale somewhat. still, i feel like titans' next season has the potential to be really great. |

Titans was "not good" in my opinion. Will still watch next season because... I dunno.... in its "not good"ness, it has something that is like.... "I want to see how weird and not good this is"
Got a bunch of Doom Patrol on my DVR now... I should start it.... They were good on Titans |

I'm sure he's a decent enough actor. But as Bruce Wayne? Meh as far as look goes.

Affleck looked more like Wayne than any of them. And I'm not arguing for or against the previous castings. That's irrelevant. I'm saying I don't like this castingbecause, to me, I can't buy him as Bruce Wayne.

I thought they cast Iain Glen as Bruce Wayne.... he's old and crusty, but he isn't bald?

Tis thinning quite a bit. Maybe he'll be good. Who knows. I just personally don't care for the casting. |
