Jim Lee Confirms DC Universe Content Is Moving To HBO Max

Jax Motes — Sun, 16 Aug 2020 00:57:05 +0000

Well, we all knew it was coming, but it appears to be official. DC Universe will continue to provide digital comics and a platform for fans to interact, but its original TV projects are moving over to HBO Max. HBO Max already offers the animated ‘Harley Quinn’ and live-action ‘Doom Patrol’, but according to Jim Lee, DC Comics’ sole publisher after the departure of Dan DiDio earlier this year, it sounds as though the remainder of DC Universe’s original continent will also shift over. That includes the live-action ‘Titans’ and animated ‘Young Justice’. Just weeks ago, DC Universe quietly stopped offering annual memberships. ‘Stargirl’, meanwhile, was moved over to The CW, where it has performed strongly. It was already announced that Season 2 would only be released via The CW and not DC Universe. The CW is also airing ‘Swamp Thing’ a live-action series that only lasted for one shortened season, and there have been faint rumbling that a second season could be in the cards if it performs well. Here is what Lee said (via The Hollywood Reporter): “The original content that is on DCU is migrating to HBO Max. Truthfully, that’s the best platform for that content. The […]

DC Fandome Releases A Trailer To Get You Pumped For The First Ever DC Virtual Con

Jax Motes — Thu, 06 Aug 2020 13:00:54 +0000

Fans of DC Comics and its various media had to have been disappointed that none of them were presented at San Diego Comic-Con’s virtual con this year. Instead, the WarnerMedia DC empire is holding its own virtual con, DC Fandome, on August 22. This event will take place for 24 hours. At least from the look of things, DC Fandome will be a more interactive experience (I really don’t need to see another Zoom panel) and “attendees” will be able to explore various virtual areas and get teases from upcoming projects like the movies ‘Aquaman’ (the sequel or the movie that came out two years ago?), ‘The Batman’, ‘Black Adam’, ‘The Suicide Squad’, ‘Wonder Woman 1984’, and HBO Max’s re-edit ‘Zack Snyder’s Justice League’; and the TV shows ‘Batwoman’, ‘Doom Patrol’, ‘Lucifer’, and ‘Pennyworth’. To promote DC Fandome, Warner Brothers has released a rousing trailer, set to John Williams’ ‘Superman: The Movie’ theme song. Check it out below: These are the virtual areas that fans can explore (via Collider): DC WatchVerse: Here’s where you grab a seat, sit back, and join our virtual audience and become completely engrossed in hours of must-see content from around the world.

Justice Con: Ray Fisher Has Collected A Lot Of Evidence And Personal Accounts To Back His Charges Against Joss Whedon

Jax Motes — Mon, 27 Jul 2020 11:00:39 +0000

While most eyes were on SDCC’s first Con@Home, another virtual fan expo, Justice Con, took place simultaneously, with a focus on the upcoming Zack Snyder re-edit of ‘Justice League’. This was a fan-organized event, so it wasn’t packed with a lot of stars (look for more of them to participate in the official DC Fandome in August), but two cast members contributed– Ray Fisher who played Cyborg/Victor Stone, and Joe Porter, who played his father, Silas Stone. Fisher has made waves lately, due to accusations leveled against Joss Whedon, who took over directing after Snyder departed after the death of his daughter. Joss Wheadon’s on-set treatment of the cast and crew of Justice League was gross, abusive, unprofessional, and completely unacceptable. He was enabled, in many ways, by Geoff Johns and Jon Berg. Accountability>Entertainment — Ray Fisher (@ray8fisher) July 1, 2020 Fisher has since said that he is still under contract with Warner Brothers and signed a nondisclosure agreement that prevented him from going into details about his beef with Whedon. During his appearance at Justice Con, Fisher said: “I don’t want to compare them in any way, shape, or form. But what I will say toward the Joss Whedon […]

DC Universe Stops Offering Annual Subscriptions… Meaning It Probably Won’t Last Another Year

Jax Motes — Tue, 21 Jul 2020 20:24:48 +0000

Okay, well… I’ve tried to be positive about this, buuuut… DC Universe has ceased offering annual memberships. This can really only mean one thing– DC Universe won’t be around for another year. The writing has been on the wall for a while. DC Universe’s original series are steadily being “shared” with other outlets with ‘Stargirl’ also airing on The CW, soon to be joined by ‘Swamp Thing’, while ‘Doom Patrol’ is also available on HBO Max, with ‘Harley Quinn’ joining it in a couple of weeks. Word arrived weeks ago that ‘Stargirl’ was moving entirely to The CW and would no longer be offered on DC Universe. The CW, DC Universe, and HBO Max are all owned by parent company WarnerMedia, and many have speculated that with the launch of the bigger, more expansive streaming platform, HBO Max, that DC Universe’s days were numbered. They were right. DC Universe, which costs $7.99 a month, was said to be shifting its focus to digital comics and news. But then it went and canceled ‘DC Daily’, its comic book news show that aired Monday through Friday. On June 30, DC Universe subscribers were offered the chance to add HBO Max for $4.99 […]

‘Justice League’s Cyborg, Ray Fisher Praises His “Brother From Another Mother…Box” ‘Doom Patrol’s Cyborg, Joivan Wade

Jax Motes — Fri, 10 Jul 2020 13:00:08 +0000

Ray Fisher has been on quite a tirade on Twitter attacking Joss Whedon, the second director to work on Fisher’s first major motion picture, ‘Justice League’. But he has also used his social platform to shut down any rumors that he has any animosity directed at Joivan Wade. Both actors play the same role– DC’s half-man, half-computer crimefighter, Cyborg, a.k.a. Victor Stone. Fisher appeared in the role first, making a cameo in ‘Batman V Superman’ before appearing in a significant role in ‘Justice League’ in 2017. Wade made his debut last year on DC Universe’s TV series ‘Doom Patrol’, which just launched its second season on DC Universe and HBO Max. While it might seem natural to pit two actors playing the same role against one another, Fisher shut that right down. Keep doin’ your thing, @JoivanWade! If anybody out there has a problem with my cybernetic brother from another mother…box, do me a favor and unfollow me. If I catch you hating on him, I’m blocking you. #BORGLIFE https://t.co/c8eO0Kp6CM — Ray Fisher (@ray8fisher) July 9, 2020 As you can see, Fisher reacted to one of Wade’s tweets, which featured the caption “2 pictures & 2 words… BOO-YAAH!” Following Fisher’s […]

‘Justice League Dark: Apokolips War’ Will Be The Last Movie In This DC Animated Universe

Jax Motes — Mon, 30 Mar 2020 14:39:45 +0000

Well, as the headline reads, the upcoming animated film ‘Justice League Dark: Apokolips War’ will be the last set in this DC shared universe. This cycle kicked off with ‘Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox’ in 2013, which was followed by ‘Justice League: War’, ‘Son of Batman’, ‘Justice League: Throne of Atlantis’, ‘Batman Vs. Robin’, ‘Batman: Bad Blood’, ‘Justice League vs. Teen Titans’, ‘Justice League Dark’, ‘Teen Titans: The Judas Contract’, ‘Suicide Squad: Hell to Pay’, ‘The Death of Superman’, ‘Reign of the Supermen’, ‘Batman: Hush’, and ‘Wonder Woman: Bloodlines’. Of course, there have been multiple DC animated movies released during this time that have not been connected to this shared universe, and Warner Bros. Animation will continue to create and release original DC animated flicks– they will just be free-standing. There is also the possibility that they could establish a new shared universe with a different art style and direction. This sequence of movies was meant to reflect DC Comics’ “New 52” reboot, which launched in 2011. Ironically, the film series has outlasted the publishing initiative, which began to unravel in 2015, with the “Convergence” crossover. It should be noted, however, that the films themselves drifted away from some of the “New […]

Check Out The Trailer For ‘Justice League Dark: Apokolips War’, The Biggest DC Animated Movie Yet!

Jax Motes — Tue, 03 Mar 2020 01:31:54 +0000

On the heels of last year’s hero-packed ‘Avengers: Endgame’ and The CW’s “Crisis on Infinite Earths” crossover event, Warner Brothers Animation is delivering its most ambitious and heavily-populated animated DC superhero movie with ‘Justice League Dark: Apokolips War’. After being defeated by the freshly-formed Justice League in ‘Justice League: War’, the lord of Apokolips, Darkseid is back for his revenge and it will take all of Earth’s heroes to stop him. Justice League Dark: Apokolips War features the largest Super Hero cast in the history of DC Universe Movies with dozens of actors/characters spotlighted in a grand ensemble of talent reprising their roles from this six-year story continuum. Matt Ryan (Legends of Tomorrow, Constantine), Jerry O’Connell (Carter, Bravo’s Play by Play, Stand by Me) and Taissa Farmiga (The Nun, The Mule, American Horror Story) anchor the cast as Constantine, Superman and Raven, respectively – the triumvirate determined to assemble the forces necessary to lead humanity’s final attack. Alongside that trio are the long-running core of Justice League voices — Jason O’Mara (The Man in the High Castle, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.) as Batman, Rosario Dawson (Briar Patch, Daredevil, Sin City) as Wonder Woman, Shemar Moore (S.W.A.T., Criminal Minds) as Cyborg and […]

Toy Fair 2020: McFarlane Toys Heads Back To Their Comic Roots

Jordan DesJardins — Mon, 02 Mar 2020 14:30:01 +0000

McFarlane Toys is back and better than ever! To be entirely fair, they never actually went anywhere and have pretty consistently been awesome over the years, but it’s definitely a safe statement to say that this year they are truly returning to New York Toy Fair 2020 at the top of their game when it comes to comic book themed action figures. Without further ado, here’s the full rundown on the New York Toy Fair 2020 showcase for McFarlane Toys comic book and superhero-themed figures! Starting off with perhaps one of the most interesting news bites, Mcfarlane Toys are taking steps to bring back the brand that started it all with ‘Spawn‘! After the success of the ‘Spawn 300’ comic book last year, McFarlane is focusing on revitalizing the brand, but they need your help! McFarlane Toys is going to be launching a Kickstarter ‘direct-to-consumer’ crowdfunding campaign to remake the original 1995 Spawn figure with an updated scale, sculpt, and articulation that will bring this beloved figure design into modern times. While we are expecting more information to be coming soon, we were excited to learn that if this new Spawn figure remake does well, there will be more remakes […]

Jordan DesJardins — Fri, 28 Feb 2020 16:48:34 +0000

WB Assembles Its Largest Voice Cast Ever For The Epic Animated Movie ‘Justice League Dark: Apokolips War’

Jax Motes — Wed, 26 Feb 2020 14:05:35 +0000

Heroes of Earth beware! Darkseid is coming back for his revenge at long last. Warner Bros. Animation marks six years of interwoven DC movies by delivering what sounds like the biggest yet. Based on the New 52 relaunch, things kicked off with ‘Justice League: War’, which adapted the first storyline from that version of the ‘Justice League’ comic book, showing the formation of the team (and the origin of Cyborg) to stave off an invasion by Darkseid and his Parademons. Now he’s bringing payback in the new movie ‘Justice League Dark: Apokolips War’ and part of the voice cast has been announced. Tony Todd (‘Candyman’) reprises the voice of Darkseid. Todd previously voiced the despot in ‘Reign of the Supermen’. (Steve Blum voiced him in ‘War’.) It appears the three heroes that will be the most heavily featured are Superman, John Constantine, and Raven. Jerry O’Connell has voiced Superman in ‘Justice League: Throne of Atlantis’, ‘Justice League vs. Teen Titans’, ‘Justice League Dark’, ‘The Death of Superman’, ‘Reign of the Supermen’, and ‘Batman: Hush’, and he returns here. (Alan Tudyk voiced him in ‘War’.) Matt Ryan, who portrays Constantine in live-action on ‘Legends of Tomorrow’, will once again voice the […]

The Arrowverse Earth-Prime Heroes Are Not Aware Of The Post-“Crisis” Multiverse

Jax Motes — Wed, 22 Jan 2020 22:29:20 +0000

The ending of the Arrowverse crossover “Crisis on Infinite Earths” was a treat for fans of DC TV shows across various outlets. For starters, the crossover wound up accomplishing what most viewers had hoped from the beginning– that all of The CW’s DC Comics shows, including ‘Black Lightning,‘ were now set on one Earth, Earth-Prime. But that doesn’t mean that all of the realities from the Multiverse were gone. Instead, it appeared that an all-new Multiverse had formed: Earth-2, setting for the upcoming series ‘Stargirl’, which will be offered on both the DC Universe streaming service and The CW; Earth-9, home of ‘Titans’, which had been among the parallel universes destroyed at the beginning of “Crisis”; Earth-12, setting of the recently announced ‘Green Lantern’ series coming to HBO Max; Earth-19, setting of DC Universe’s defunct ‘Swamp Thing’; Earth-21, setting for DC Universe’s ‘Doom Patrol’— firmly establishing that even though this show was originally meant to be a spin-off of ‘Titans’, it now takes place in its own reality; and Earth-96, the “Kingdom Come” Earth, which is also believed to be the reality of the Christopher Reeve ‘Superman’ movies and Brandon Routh’s ‘Superman Returns’.
