On the "television" side, we're excited for DuVernay's other venture in the DCU: overseeing production and directing the pilot for HBO Max's upcoming series adaptation of Brian Wood's Vertigo comic DMZ.Last month, it was confirmed that Rosario Dawson (Briarpatch) is set to lead the series as medic Alma Ortego Now we're learning from Deadline Hollywood[...]

It's pretty safe to say that DC Universe's live-action Doom Patrol series is not your typical "superhero show" – it makes shows like ABC's Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. look like the 60's Batman television series. A fourth-wall-breaking "big bad," a farting donkey, a Spanish priest's stigmata wounds as portals to other places, and an "homage" […]

Even four months on, fans are still buzzing over the news that Netflix ordered an 11-episode series for The Sandman, based on Neil Gaiman's DC Comics-Vertigo comic book series Sandman and stemming from the Warner Bros Television Group Then earlier this month, Gaiman revealed to Radio Times that work was already underway on a second[...]

The plot was part of the aftermath of the Invasion! crossover series done in 1988, which affected all the books in the DC Universe (this was pre-Vertigo, so Animal Man was still in the DCU) Buddy gets zapped by some kind of alien ray which drains him of his super powers, and spends the issue[...]

A little more than a month after Netflix's Lucifer announced that viewers' final run with Tom Ellis' devilish lead was being extended from 10 to 16 episodes for its fifth and final season, fans are now getting a peek behind the curtain at what the new season holds. While it's not exactly an episode-by-episode spoiler […]

It was sad to sit and watch the series finale of The CW's iZombie, having been a diehard fan of the show from day one. I wasn't sure what I was bracing myself for or how I truly wanted it to end. Did I want a bloodbath and a slaughter of all my favorite characters, […]

The series finale of The CW's iZombie will definitely offer up a bloodbath.  I don't foresee any side truly being able to claim victory by the time the dust settles on "All's Well That Ends Well." Humans will use weapons; zombies will use 1000lbs of brute force and rage. It does not seem plausible that […]

With The CW's iZombie coming to an end, this week's episode "Bye, Zombies" was full of action, drama, tears, and comedy. In fact, some characters cried a little too much – making my skin crawl just a smidge and wishing for her immediate death. I guess I was wrong, and Martin (Bill Wise) really is […]

We told you this year's Comic-Con International: San Diego (SDCC) was pretty much going to be setting up shop on the "Television" side of the pop culture landscape, and HBO is looking to keep it that way. While Damon Lindelof's "remix" of Alan Moore and David Gibbons celebrated comic books series Watchmen doesn't have an official […]

In this week's episode of The CW's iZombie, Liv (Rose McIver) goes drag queen and looks fabulous, while Major (Robert Buckley) and Ravi (Rahul Kohli) get "weird"? Clearly Ravi and Liv make it out unscathed from Martin's (Bill Wise) basement. I can't even fathom how Liv will address the imprisoned zombies in her dad's basement. […]
