So has anyone else been following the web-series The Joker Blogs? Because it's three episodes into its second season, and it's fucking amazing.
Here's the most recent episode.... ....but if you haven't seen it, I really recommend starting from the beginning. |

Holy shit, part 3 was epic. Did it take that long to do this or why do they release it so slowly?

It is just one dude who is making it, so there is no "they"... I imagine it takes quite some time to create, plus doing it in his spare time....

So that "Gotham" TV show that is in development for Fox, is confirmed to have Bruce Wayne in it and "The show will track Bruce from a child (around 12 years old) until he puts on a cape (in the finale)".
Also various bat-villains confirmed to appear, including Catwoman, Riddler, and Penguin. |

Well, the original news was that it was a show about Jim Gordon and his rise in the GCPD.... so it is Smallville with Batman and Gordon.

So... Are we gonna see different recasts of Bruce or are they starting with a late-teens Bruce? How many seasons are we looking at? Didn't Bruce travel around the world training?

The CW has decided not to move forward with its Wonder Woman prequel series Amazon, according to Hollywood Reporter. The series had been developed based on a script by Alan Heinberg, but the network was not satisfied (see "No Pilot Order Yet for 'Wonder Woman'") and requested a rewrite by Heroes writer Aron Eli Coleite last May (see "CW Puts New Writer on 'Wonder Woman' Project").
When the network started moving ahead with a Flash series, the Wonder Woman series started to lose momentum (see "Flash Origin in 'Arrow'"), and has now been declared dead in that form at the CW by network president Mark Pedowitz at the Television Critics Association’s winter press tour. New Warner Bros. CEO Kevin Tsujihara wants to find a way to use the character (see "Warners Has 'Huge Plans' for 'Other DC Properties'"), but it looks like it’s going to take a different idea than the prequel concept that was being developed at the CW. NBC also had a Wonder Woman series in development back in 2011; that series is also dead (see "NBC Dumps 'Wonder Woman'"). |

Yeah, guessing it's like Sabertooth's last venture with the x-men, where he was on the team due to the situation, and not because anyone actually wanted him there.

I'm honestly kind of amazed DC hasn't tried this before, given that "arch villain joins the heroes" is a favorite in Marvel's playbook, and DC has been trying to imitate Marvel for like thirty years or so.

The 'strange bedfellows' thing is a fine line for me with comics. It bothers me for two main reasons:
1) It almost always demands somebody severely breaks character for it to work. Under no circumstance could Wolverine and Sabretooth share living spaces for more than a day, without turning it into a warzone. At the very least, I like that they ended that arch with Logan starting a fight for seemingly no reason while Creed was just watching TV. Course correction. 2) They pretty much never play it in reverse. When bad guys join the good guys they don't have to be mind-fucked or tricked or anything. It's something, somehow, the good team has to deal with it. 'Shake things up' and whatever. But when a good guy takes a trip on the dark side there has to be all sorts of narrative apologetics to explain it. So we have the spells, mind-fucks, illusions, possessed bodies, etc. By this standard villains have more capacity for change than the heroes. |

You are thinking of the first time Sabretooth joined the x-men. The second time was acompletely different story. He didn't so much join them as he did place himself in their captivity to protect him from the Children.
Doctor Doom teams up with the heroes all the time, to tackle a larger threat. As does Thanos. Point is, they don't have to stray from his character to make this work. |

Apparently the Ted Kord Blue Beetle is back as well, and will also be a part of the Justice League.

The movie will probably be better than the original story.

Hate that Grant Morrison took Damian away. Damian was the best when NOT being written by Grant Morrison. Feel bad for the other writers.

I'm buying Son of Batman based on the fact it's based on Grant's run, which I love and is one of my favorite Batman stories.

I know it is still "early" to bring him back, but I'm hoping that the upcoming weekly Batman series somehow brings Damian back to the living.

Dislike the new voice actor for Bruce. Sounds like DC said "Let's go see if we can find someone who can do a Kevin Conroy imitation so we don't have to pay the real Kevin Conroy."

Bruce Greenwood would have fine as the new ongoing Bat-voice. He was fucking epic in Red Hood and Young Justice.

DC has cancelled the following titles and they will have their last issues in April:
NIGHTWING (they better not kill off Dick Grayson in Forever Evil) Superman Unchained (maybe Snyder and Lee's take on the man of steel isn't selling as well I thought it would). Justice League of America (will be replaced by the new Justice League United) Suicide Squad Stormwatch (what will they do with Midnighter and Apollo now) Teen Titans (what will happen to Tim Drake) |

I don't see Red Hood and the Outlaws or Batwing going anytime soon....then again, I could've said that about Nightwing, Teen Titans, Justice League of America and Superman Unchained...
