Written by Judd Winick and based on his 2005 Batman comics story line, it's Batman versus another vigilante, Red Hood, who doesn't mind cleaning up Gotham by leaving dead bodies in his wake. Animated guru Bruce Timm exec produces this pretty violent look into crime on the streets, and it's directed by "Superman Doomsday" co- ( Read more... )

 At about 3 in the morning last night, I remembered that I had located several links for watching the latest DCAU movie, Superman/Batman: Public Enemies, and sat down to watch it. It should be noted that I *didn't* fall asleep while watching it, which is probably the highest compliment I can give. I mean, this movie already had one major strike ( Read more... )

Paul Dini has written "Chill of the Night!," the episode of Batman: The Brave and the Bold that was touched upon at Comic-Con International last weekend.

Voices in the episode include Adam West as Thomas Wayne, Julie Newar as Martha Wayne, Kevin Conroy as the Phantom Stranger and Mark Hamill as The Spectre.

DC announced their next animated movie for after Green Lantern: First Flight, and it's Superman/Batman: Public Enemies, based off the tpb of course.

I'm a hypocrite. I rant and rave against Marvel, and now I'm a hopeless Wolverine and the X-Men addict. What has the world come too???

I've been watching all evening, and I just finished the episode 'Greetings from Genosha' in which Nightcrawler goes to Genosha to check it out for the X-Men, continuing the plotline started in 'X-Calibre'. Everything ( Read more... )

So, I just watched the first episode of the new cartoon entitled "Rise of the Blue Beetle" and it was...interesting.

Make no mistake, this is no Justice League/Unlimited, its closer to Legion of Superheroes in its "MUST HAVE LESSON AT END" quality but Legion was less laughably silly. Batman is really not scary at all, he's bright blue for goodness ( Read more... )

Since I received a request from a 'loyal reader' who, btw, likes to leave mean comments, for something 'different' which I assume is not Legion/Brainiac related. FINE. Something DIFFERENT.

Last Saturday, cartoon network showed The New Frontier for its 'network premiere' (yeah whoopdedo, CN). Of course, I totally watched it. (It was either that or ( Read more... )
