Alan Moore is a legend. The comics that he has created have become some of the most significant in DC Studios, having been behind iconic works like Batman: The Killing Joke, Night Olympics, and Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow. He has a reputation for creating works that are the perfect blend of literary genius and mainstream comics.
Justice League Unlimited
Despite all of the iconic works he created, the writer famously hated his works being adapted onto the screen. It did not matter if it was live-action, animation, or retellings; if they were using his comics as source material, he wanted nothing to do with it.

However, he did make one exception for an episode in the Dcau series, Justice League Unlimited.

Comic book fans frequently navigate through a sea of online rumors, especially when it comes to upcoming movies. A recent example is the chatter surrounding the villain in James Gunn’s Superman reboot.
Superman from DC Comics
The movie explores Clark Kent/Superman’s internal conflict. He is a reporter in Metropolis with extraordinary powers. Born on the planet Krypton, he was raised by the Kent family on Earth, giving him both Kryptonian heritage (his alien origin and powers) and a human upbringing (the values he learned from his adoptive parents).
The movie delves into how he grapples with these two identities. Recently, rumors have also circulated about Ultraman appearing as the villain in the film, but Gunn quickly clarified these reports.

Don’t get caught up in the speculation about Ultraman—James Gunn has set the record straight himself.

David Corenswet and Rachel Brosnahan are the new faces of Superman and Lois Lane in James Gunn’s upcoming Dcu film Superman (formerly Superman: Legacy). Sharing one of the behind-the-scenes photos from the film, it seems that the cast has bonded quite well.
Taking to Instagram, Lois Lane actress Rachel Brosnahan took a photo of Ira Corenswet (David Corenswet’s dog) sitting on her chair. After taking a cheeky dig at the dog, David Corenswet also took to his Instagram to give an appropriate reply to these jokes!

Call it nepotism (that’s what Rachel Brosnahan is calling it) but the actress took to Instagram to share the most recent update on her role in Superman. Taking a photo of her chair on-set, the actress sadly remarked that her position as Lois Lane had been snubbed.

The theory of a multiverse i.e., multiple universes (parallel and anti-parallel) running simultaneously has been often used in movies and series to mess with people’s brains. Well, franchises like the Dcau and the MCU have been working on the concept relentlessly for several years.
With these comic giants and other franchises working excessively on this single concept, people would often find all the stuff repetitive and unnecessary. One particular Dcau film got the short end of the stick when the concept of the multiverse went mainstream!

When The Concept of Multiverse Went Mainstream
People remember a time when superhero movies were only about fighting a bad guy, saving the world, and calling it a day. The start of the MCU (Iron Man) had a similar style and fans indeed loved the film.

Following the release of ‘Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom,’ the DC Universe (Dcu) has officially taken over from the DC Extended Universe (Dceu). Now, some of the most iconic characters in comic history are under the direction of Safran and Gunn. The Dcu is set to kick off with the animated show ‘Creature Commandos.’ However, the live-action aspect of this cinematic universe will begin with the release of ‘Superman,’ which both Safran and Gunn consider to be the true start of the Dcu. Several other projects are confirmed to be in development, including ‘The Authority,’ focusing on the team of the same name, ‘Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow,’ starring Milly Alcock as Dcu’s Supergirl, and ‘Paradise Lost,’ a TV show centered on Wonder Woman-related lore set on Themyscira.
While key roles like Superman, Lois Lane, and Supergirl have been cast, the identity of the live-action Batman in the Dcu remains unknown.

It’s that time of the month again when the world is introduced to theories regarding their favorite characters. Today’s topic is the iconic character of Wonder Woman and more specifically, Wonder Woman in the Dcau or the DC Animated Universe.
Being an integral part of the Justice League both in live-action as well as animated projects, the character of Wonder Woman is truly iconic and unique. However, a fan theory says that Diana Prince is not the first Wonder Woman of the Dcau!
Wonder Woman is a formidable DC hero Diana Prince Was Not The First Wonder Woman In The Dcau!
Well, people may remember how there were multiple carriers of Ghost Rider, and the spirit passed on down to the next. It seems that Diana Prince aka Wonder Woman in the Dcau and the comics might have undergone something like that.

Regardless of one’s opinions towards the Arrowverse, it was difficult to criticize Tom Cavanagh’s portrayal of Eobard Thawne / Reverse-Flash. He has even played multiple versions of Harrison Wells on the CW’s The Flash, which stars Grant Gustin in the lead.
Cavanagh recently said that he would be amenable to reprising his role as Reverse-Flash in James Gunn’s upcoming DC Universe. Well, the Guardians of the Galaxy director, 57, would have a good reason to bring the Canadian actor back to the role in the Dcu since the viewers praised his portrayal of Eobard Thawne.

The year is 2005: You crack open a Sprite Tropical Remix, pop in your new Smallville Season 4 DVD, and sink into your big, comfy couch for the evening. You can’t wait to hear the director’s commentary on your favorite episodes and tune into that new featurette detailing all the inside secrets about Lois Lane’s casting. You press play and hear Miles Millar’s voice begin to narrate. Life is good.
Sadly, in the current streaming age, DVD commentaries are largely a thing of the past. Long gone are the days when fans flocked to Best Buy to get their hands on the hottest new box set promising exclusive cast interviews, deleted scenes, and insights from the creators. But the decline of physical media doesn’t necessarily mean viewers will never get to experience anything like that again.

There’s an iconic scene in 1978’s “Superman” of Clark Kent, played by Christopher Reeve, spying Lois Lane dangling from a helicopter. He locates a revolving door, emerges as the Man of Steel, and soars upward and catches a falling Lane.
“Easy, miss, I’ve got you,” says Superman. Lane is still panicking. “You’ve got me? Who’s got you?”
Superman smiles, offers a casual goodbye and flies off into the night, his forelock perfect. It’s the image the world held of Reeve until 1995. And that’s where Ian Bonhote and Peter Ettedgui’s new documentary, “Super/Man,” picks up a very different version of the hero’s journey.
Reeve is now paralyzed from the neck down after a fall from his horse. He cannot move, he cannot soar. His wife, Dana, tends to him and then talks of seeking out towels fresh from the dryer so she...
