Jimmy Kimmel gives his viewers the debut of a new Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice trailer. If you didn’t see it last night he has provided it again on his YouTube channel to share with everyone so here it is:
Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice Trailer
Growing up my parents always picked up the DC Comics for me. So I’m more of a DC guy instead of a Marvel guy even though I love Marvel as well. But man I love see the small screen and big screen coming to life with what to me are my heroes. So you knew I couldn’t let the weekend come without posting the trailer to the new Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice trailer that debuted at ComicCon. All I can say is it looks good. Seems to pick up within the Man of Steel battle, with Bruce Wayne present in Metropolis at the time. So that was a nice tie-in. Plus Batman has always been about protecting the people even to include other heroes that might turn. Check out Justice League: Tower of Babel for this concept. Thanks to Warner Bros. for streaming this on the YouTube channel for us to share with everyone – Richard:
Justice League: Throne of Atlantis
Don’t have this one yet, but it is definitely on my radar to pick up. I have been enjoying DC’s animated movies and Throne of Atlantis looks good as well. Thanks to DC Entertainment’s YouTube channel for the trailer:
DC HeroClix Get New Set
The fans of WizKids’ HeroClix get a new set coming this November. The new set is entitled DC HeroClix: Superman/Wonder Woman. No exact number of pieces that will be in the set, but these three above are slated to be in the set, but things can always change as collectors and gamers know.
DC Comics Stop!
DC Comics have released the above images of Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman in new costumes, through HitFix and we got them from ICv2, after the current “Convergence” storyline running through the titles. The fans just not that long ago went with new costumes for DC’s “New 52”. I wish sometimes these companies would leave things alone. If it works why mess with it. I could handle the minor changes with the “New 52” costumes, but these I don’t know? Maybe they will grow on me or it’s just temporary.
Casting for New Supergirl TV Series
Two Superman legacy actors have reportedly joined the cast of the planned Supergirl television series. They are Helen Slater (past Supergirl) and Dean Cain (past Superman). What their roles may be is still under wraps, but it is fun to see this happen.
Meet Aquaman
Meet the new Aquaman, Jason Momoa. Momoa is set to play Aquaman in the upcoming Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice movie. I see this as maybe a small role or a cameo/background role and then he will have a prominent role in the planned Justice League movie. Otherwise to me, the screen is starting to get a little crowded with characters and that might make the story suffer. I hope it is a success, because I’m a DC guy more than a Marvel guy and I would like to see more DC characters on the big screen done well.
Powers’ Lets us “Touch the World”
Powers’ doesn’t really want to be placed in a specific genre, so each individual song can have a different feel to it. With “Touch the World”, Powers’ goes into an Electric Techno feeling type of music. Once you get into the song it has a catchy rhythm and lyrics. They don’t dive to much into the the Techno feel so I think everyone will enjoy this. Plus how can I not like a song referencing a comic book character. For those of you that know me will understand that comment. Anyway you don’t have to take my word for it Powers’ has made this available for you to listen to and watch their music video through their YouTube channel – Richard

We Get Another DC Hero on the Big Screen
Warner Bros. has announced that Gal Gadot will be in the next Superman movie, portraying Wonder Woman. That means that the Big Three DC Comics Heroes will be in this movie (Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman). Sounds interesting and we all know that Warner Bros. is trying to get into a franchise set around the Justice League as Disney has done with Marvel Entertaiment’s Avengers franchise with individual movies around the main movie. The movie is scheduled to be released July 17, 2015.
