89 on First look at Batman and Superman Barbie dollsLast summer heard we were getting a Wonder Woman Barbie doll, but these new Batman and Superman dolls by Barbie are a big surprise! I guess they're technically Ken dolls dressed up as the Dark Knight and Man of Steel, right? Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman Barbie will be available in March for $40 each. Batman's mask…
Last month TNT president Kevin Reilly revealed that his network passed on the Teen Titans show, Titans, that DC Comics was working on. Reilly cited a poor script as the main reason why TNT wasn't interested. TVLine caught up with DC's Chief Creative Officer Geoff Johns just a few days after TNT announced the news. But it…
Bruce Wayne is missing. Alfred covers for him while Nightwing and Robin patrol Gotham City in his stead. And a new player, Batwoman, investigates Batman's disappearance. That, ladies and gentleman, is the official synopsis for this film. You’d think that DC could’ve been a little more creative, but I suppose it get’s the job done.…
Last month we got an exciting new trailer for Suicide Squad with tons of new footage. One of the most interesting moments was when we saw Jared Leto's Joker laying down, surrounded by knives and blades, laughing maniacally. Now thanks to a new 15-second promo video released on the official Suicide Squad Instagram account, we…
This is an El Nino year for us, so we’ve been facing more storms than usual in Los Angeles. I love the rain, because it gives me an “excuse” to slow down and be a little lazy. Well yesterday the storms were so heavy that it knocked out electricity all over the city, and I…

Fans hoping to see an epic Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice Super Bowl commercial this Sunday will be disappointed. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Warner Bros. will not be spending the outrageous $5 million for a 30-second spot... but there's still hope! While Warner Bros. hasn't bought an ad proper, it's possible a promotional partner…
Variety has teamed up with ListenFirst Digital Audience Ratings to measure social media trends across platforms like Facebook, Google+, Instagram, Tumblr, Twitter, Wikipedia and YouTube. According to their most recent report, Warner Bros. has the most anticipated superhero movies of 2016 with Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad. Among the slew of…
There’s no easy way to put this, so I’m just going to say it. I’m beginning to dislike this book more and more. In fact, I’m starting to dislike all of Fletcher’s books. Gotham Academy is pure gold, but even it is suffering right now. Batgirl is in my list of least favorite titles, and…
The new March issue of Empire magazine is full of new Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice info. It has epic new images, teases the introduction of Darkseid, and has great new interviews. I covered a lot of that here on Batman News, like producer Charles Roven's controversial "executioner" Batman comments, and the fact that…
I bet you're wondering what I'm going to write. Scott Lobdell doesn't have writing credits, so I can't rail on him in this review... Or can I? Look, I'm clearly not a fan of Lobdell. I've been pretty transparent about that. With that acknowledged, I don't hate his work just because it's from him. He's…
We’re back to a regular cadence with Justice League of America and I’m slowly beginning to warm back up to this book, especially after last month’s issue. We’ve known that Rao is a less than stellar guy, but last month was the first time we actually witnessed him own it, when he attacked Superman. With…
Sideshow's latest Premium Format Bat-figure is a variant (and quite the improvement) of a statue released a year or two ago. This polystone sculpture, a limited edition of only 2,000, may be poured from the same mold, but, rather than sport the black on grey of its predecessor, features characteristics most commonly found in the…
Teen Titans #13 got lost in the shuffle a few months ago. I'll be taking over reviews for the title starting with February's issue, so I'm covering this one in the meantime. How do you review a book that everyone says is bad? As the newest member of the comics review team here at Batman…
Cartoon Network just announced a new 15 minute animated series titled Justice League Action. Best of all, it stars Kevin Conroy as Batman and Mark Hamill as the Joker! James Woods will voice Lex Luthor, and Diedrich Bader is Booster Gold. No voice actors for Superman or Wonder Woman have been announced yet. Cartoon Network didn't announce a start…
Hot Toys has officially unveiled its armored Batman figure from Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and it's available for pre-order now! It retails for $250, which is only $15 more than the regular Batman figure. The armored Batman Hot Toys figure includes working LED light-up eyes, a grapple gun, and a grenade gun with…
Jada Pinkett Smith has signed on to reprise her role as Fish Mooney for multiple Season 2 Gotham episodes, TVLine reports. We last saw Fish Mooney at the end of Season 1, when the Penguin threw her off of the roof of a warehouse into the ocean below. Since Smith decided not to renew her…
Two stories. Two character focuses. One book. There's a part of me that really wanted to write a separate review for each story (as in two separate posts), but if you plan on buying the monthly issues, then you're stuck with both stories... So you're getting two reviews in on post. I'll score each issue…
Justice League 3001 #8 "A New Beginning" review Written by: J. M. DeMatteis & Keith Giffen Art by: Scott Kolins Colors by: Hi-Fi Cat's TidBits: New Justice League! This new beginning starts with a new team, new members, and a brand new Justice League to save our planet from anyone that tries to destroy it.…
The March issue of Empire magazine hit newsstands and tablets today, and it features a ton of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice goodies. I'm going to be going through the entire issue this weekend and putting together a big post of all the interesting new info, but for now I wanted to share some…
This...was...TREMENDOUS! Without a doubt, this was the best issue of We are Robin to date. I was rather hard on this comic in its infancy, but with the last few issues, things have really started to pick up. With this installment, I think it is safe to say that W.A.R. finally has its first real…
