Powerless Season 1 Episode 1 Review – ‘Wayne or Lose’

by

Rachel Bellwoar reviews the first episode of the new DC sitcom Powerless… Superhero movies and shows aren’t the only culprits but collateral damage is real. Nobody talks about it. The broken windows. The buildings blown up. It’s all tucked away in the unspoken contract we’ve signed with the networks and studios. Give us more stunts […]

Comic Book Review – Justice League vs. Suicide Squad

by

Jessie Robertson reviews Justice League vs. Suicide Squad (with spoilers)… When DC Comics initiated Rebirth some months ago, it brought a lot of fans out of the New 52 funk they’d been in for several years; it realigned the universe back to the its original state, in most cases, and brought you versions of characters […]

Should We Be Worried About The Flash Movie?

by

Henry Bevan on Warner Bros.’ The Flash movie… Ever since he zoomed onto the screen on the Justice League cartoon, The Flash became one of my favourite superheroes.
