If you are a comic book collector like I am and you haven’t been down the cereal aisle in you local grocer you might want to go down it. General Mills is doing another DC Comics promotional and this time it is with the upcoming Batman v Superman movie. Their are four mini comic books that are randomly inserted in five different cereals. The cereal boxes to look for are: Cocoa Puffs; Trix; Lucky Charms; Golden Grahams; and Honey Nut Cheerios. I’ve gotten one issue so far, just three more to go.
Supergirl/Flash Crossover Announced
ICv2 has posted some exciting news for DC television fans. Executive Producers Greg Berlanti and Andrew Kreisberg announced that the CW’s Flash will appear in CBS’ Supergirl. The Crossover episode will air March 28. This will bring the DC television universe a fifth tie-in show even though Supergirl is on CBS. It has already been stated that Constantine has been in Arrow even though that show was canceled the character has lived on. The other three (Flash, Arrow, and DC’s Legends of Tomorrow) being on the CW. Don’t know how they would tie in with Gotham unless they bring in a grown up Bruce/Batman and use the same villain actors with some aging makeup on them or have the Legends of Tomorrow team go to that timeline in Gotham. It would be really cool if they could get them all tied together.

Dark Knight III: The Master Race
I know this hasn’t even hit the shelves yet, but this is one that library’s and if you personally like graphic novels instead of comic books it will be collected into a single volume. I’m talking about Dark Knight III: The Master Race by Frank Miller and Brian Azzarello. If you are like me and have the floppys I will be getting the individual issues to go along with the other two mini-series. I’m a Batman fan so you know I’ll be there.
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:
New DC Animation
Warner Bros. Animation announced that the next three DC Comics animated features. They will be Batman: Bad Blood, Justice League vs. Titans, and Batman: The Killing Joke. The Killing Joke is a very dark story so that is an interesting choice and how they will approach the story. Hopefully they will go a little beyond the story to show that Barbara Gordon doesn’t descend into a dark depression, but works her way through the incident that has changed her life.

Convergence Are You Ready?
Are you ready for the collected versions of DC Comics Convergence story. This is one I don’t know if I’m going to love personally or not, and I’m a DC fan. Some of the images of new costumes has me a little worried. Especially my main man Batman. Oh well check out this video where Dan Didio has to explain the story (when you have to explain it, that makes me worry to) on CBR Trailers YouTube channel:
