Her first appearance was[...]

Justice League NYC is a vision of the Gathering For Justice movement. As you might expect, DC Comics are opposing that registration….

The fitting end to a wonderful Christmas story. Shane Davis expressed his disdain that all DC freelancers and staffers got a Dex-Starr plush toy from DC Comics for Christmas but not him, given that he created the Red Lantern character and based Dex-Starr on his own cat. We then unearthed further disdain about the very existence of[...]

This year, DC Comics gave their creators and staff a special edition plush figure of the Dex-Starr character, a housecat-turned-Red Lantern, fuelled by the cat owner's death, an act Dex-Starr has yet to enact retribution The cat was based on the artist and character co-creator Shane Davis' own cat. The character was also used by Franco and[...]

Donald Trump believes that the US should stop all Muslims from entering the USA, until they can work out what's going. He may not be President (yet) but

Yesterday, Bleeding Cool broke the story that DC Comics was going to make certain titles of theirs bi-weekly next year It was soon followed by up CBR, Comic Book, Newsarama, Flickering Myth and more Some credited BC, some chose not to But what did the boots on the ground think?

We looked at how DC Comics is challenging the attempting trademarking of "Kryptonite Vapor", an e-cigarette brand from Ravensmoor. But it's not just the vapor industry that DC are looking to keep Krypton-free. They are challenging the registration of the word "Kriptonite", by Strauss Surgical for surgical devices for use in laparoscopic procedures.
