I’ve finally gotten around to playing another genre video game, after a load of non-genre games I’ve reviewed elsewhere. So, I have a review of a game that might make for fodder for the Crossover site – Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe. Continue reading →

Weekend Review – Superman/Batman: Apocalypse
This weekend we have a review of another of the more recent DC Universe animated features, in Superman/Batman: Apocalypse. Or, as it probably should have been titled – The Girl From Krypton.
Our First Look at Green Lantern
It’s a teaser and consider me teased.
Weekend Review – Batman: Under The Red Hood
This weekend we have another of the DC animated movies for review – this one an adaptation of a fairly recent Batman storyline, post Infinite Crisis. Continue reading →
Batman 3 Gets a Title but Nixes a Villain
Christopher Nolan has announced the title for his third Batman movie: The Dark Knight Rises.
Along with killing 3D for filming (yea!), he’s also said that Edward Nygma aka The Riddler will not be the villain used in this film.
So, keeping in mind Nolan’s desire to keep these films “grounded in reality,” what villain do you think he’ll go with?
San Diego Comic Con 2010 Journal
Yes, I realize that SDCC 2010 was last week. However, I kind of had a lot of stuff to do when I got home after the convention (I’ve only really finished unpacking just now), so now it’s time to get my notes together and let you know what happened during the con, based on my journal entries from the trip. This isn’t precisely going to be a “news” post – partially because it’s late, and partially the news stories from the con went up during the con, so you’ve probably already read them.

Video Game Review – Batman: Arkham Asylum
As 2009 comes to a close, I and my new Gamefly subscription are going to get started catching up with some of the games from 2009 and earlier. Today we ring in the New Year with Batman: Arkham Asylum, a game that has been lauded by other members of the gaming press as the best Batman game of all time. Well… being that I’m not other members of the gaming press, let’s see what I think. Continue reading →
Comic Review: DC – The New Frontier (Vol. 2)
So, we conclude our review (which we started last week) of DC: The New Frontier with the second half of the comic, in which things come to, well, a conclusion (as opposed to just getting left hanging – which is annoying. The ending of DC: The New Frontier on the other hand… well, I’m not going to spoil my own review. Continue reading →
Comic Review – DC The New Frontier Vol. 1
Previously, we’ve reviewed Justice League: The New Frontier, a direct-to-video animated movie adapted from Darwyn Cooke’s graphic novel, taking the Silver Age and re-spinning it to reflect the real-world politics of the time, and some more modern sensabilities. At the time of that review, we hadn’t done a review of the much longer graphic novel on which the comic was based. We’re rectifying that now with a review of part 1, with part 2 to follow next week.
