35 on Jason Momoa cast as Lobo in “Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow”After what seems like years of rumors and fancasting, it’s finally official: Jason Momoa has gone from playing Aquaman to the Main Man. Momoa himself has confirmed that he has been tapped to portray Lobo in the new cinematic DC Universe, with an Instagram post that has the simple caption of “they called.” Deadline have…
The penultimate chapter of DCeased: War of the Undead Gods has begun! Every story thread spun from the beginning finally leads into a big conflict. As Darkseid and the forces of Anti-living reach Earth-2, the good guys make their desperate last stand. After Alfred Pennyworth made the choice to kill the final members of his…
Over the years, DC Comics has experimented with the Legion of Superheroes off and on. First introduced in the comics in 1959 as an outlet for Superboy, The Legion have steadily grown into fan favorites. Although these days, Legionnaires don't hold as much mainstream relevancy as The Teen Titans. The team features an innumerable cast…
Built on the back of the narrative started in Batman/Superman: World's Finest and Batman Vs. Robin, Mark Waid infects the entire DC magical Universe with a massive story about the conflict between fathers and sons. Can We Save The Planet? Lazarus Planet begins with Batman's failure and the destruction of Lazarus Island by King Fire…
As work continues on the final season of The Flash, it has been revealed that Nicole Maines will be paying a visit to Central City. The Flash is wrapping up its nine-season run, and it's doing it with the help of some former Arrowverse stars. It has already been revealed that Javicia Leslie will appear…
The penultimate chapter of DC Vs. Vampires has finally begun! Batgirl, Supergirl, and Green Arrow each make their final plays against the vampire horde. Unfortunately, the stakes are sky high and there is no room for failure in their final hours. I want to ask Tynion and Rosenberg the hard questions first. The status of…
The best laid schemes of mice and men often go awry. However, the plans of our super men and women have finally started to come together. Victory has come fairly easy for the bloodsucking regime ruling the DC Universe, but this may be the chance to meaningfully flip the script! This week in DC Vs.…
For every evil vampire, there is a vengeful soul out there looking for them. With the forces of good in the DC Universe mostly obliterated, there aren't many heroes not looking for vengeance. However, Supergirl's journey in DC Vs. Vampires #9 seeks out something beyond the horror. The story picks up as vampires Tobias Whale…
Transported to an elseworlds of brutal illustrations and onomatopoeias. A "what if" journey limited only by the breadth of the imagination. This is DCeased: War of The Undead Gods. I confess, I'm not that into DCeased as a series. I gave up on it early on as the DC universe began to fall into despair.…
DC Comics is one of the most popular and prolific publishers on the planet*. Zombies are one of the more popular horror creatures out there too, which makes sense because the undead are both terrifying and easy to adapt to practically any property. Combine the two and you've got yourself DCeased, DC's immensely successful take…
Remember those times when Tyler Hoechlin appeared as Superman on Supergirl and then met the entire cadre of heroes during the Crisis on Infinite Earths? Well, apparently that was a different Superman, and a different Lois, than the ones we're seeing on the CW's excellent Superman & Lois every week. This revelation comes courtesy showrunner…
You know, it's funny. I've spent so much time discussing Dark Crisis in my reviews leading up to it... that by the time the event has actually arrived, I feel like I have nothing more to say. I think the book's content - or lack thereof - speaks for itself. Dark Crisis #1 sets the stage…
Dark Knights of Steel #1 had a lot of ground to cover, wouldn’t you say Matina? For sure! It was a busy, busy first issue. If I’m honest, it was a little too much for me. In our first review, I covered the lengths writer Tom Taylor and artist Yasmine Putri went to pack as…
Melissa Benoist is really good at crying, y'all. I've seen it said that Benoist's performance as Kara Danvers/Supergirl is what truly props up Supergirl. When a season has been weaker, as this one has, that sticks out even more. This week, the roiling undercurrent of Kara and Lena's relationship comes to the surface, and so…
Supergirl Season 4 was excellent. It took a great concept, mixed in not one or two but three compelling villains, and then tied it together with a believable solution. So... what's up with Supergirl Season 5? I've been a big proponent of Supergirl since episode 1. I have a Supergirl statue sitting on my desk. I love the…
One of the more controversial choices made during Supergirl's development was to tweak the role of Superman stalwart Jimmy Olson. Jimmy was Superman's pale, goofy sidekick, always getting himself into trouble. But this guy on Supergirl - he's James Olson. James is an experienced photojournalist who knew Superman back in the day and was looking out…
After an incredibly strong fourth season, Supergirl dove into season 5 by shuffling the field. This week, it has to get things moving and there are so many moving parts that it feels like it's trying to get a tank up to speed. I'm hoping it fires like a tank, too, because right now it…
Supergirl's fourth season was awesome. It wrote huge checks with its story and its villains. We had a problem Supergirl couldn't fix with just punches and smiles, and not just Lex Luthor but a really good Lex Luthor that felt authentic in his looks and writing. Even as someone who has enjoyed Supergirl from its CBS days, it…
Supergirl season 5 is shaking things up a big way and it hasn't even started. Cast members are leaving and joining, getting hair cuts, and more. One of the biggest changes coming this season is that Supergirl is finally - in season 5 - getting her first new supersuit. Melissa Benoist revealed it via Instagram…
While Supergirl espouses a message of hope - even in this dark fourth season - Arrow and Flash have struggled with their darkness. Oliver growls, Barry hems and haws. The first of three parts of the Arrowverse's 2018 crossover, Elseworlds, debuted on Sunday night, and it threw all of that out the door. Prepare for…
