I accidentally stumbled on some spoilers for the new animated Batman: Hush. Now some may say big deal for stumbling on spoilers for an animated movie of a 17-year old classic comic arc, however they apparently did do some significant changes that are quite interesting and may have been much more interesting not seeing them ahead of time. If this is remotely on your radar, try to stay away from seeing anything ahead of time because there is a bit of a different twist in the animated version.

Very entertained by the DC Super Hero Girls episodes. Can be found online at Cartoon Network with 8 episodes available. Series was created by Lauren Faust and it's a lot of fun with most eps ranging from 11-13 minutes in length. If you've seen any of the web shorts, it's basically an extended version of that.

Been getting into the show now that it's 18 episodes deep. A lot of fun stuff including tweaks to characters and little shout outs such as Harley's potential pet hyenas now being named Lucy and Ethel (after I Love Lucy) tying into the female theme without diminishing the original Bud/Lou naming concept.

Credit to the writers that I find myself invested in every main character as well.

Just saw a commercial that Cartoon Network is broadcasting the Teen Titans Go! Vs Teen Titans starting Monday. Double checked and it isn’t on DCU yet so I set it up to record on my DVR.

That was a fun movie with a lot of good nods to the whole continuity of Titans history.

Thanks for the heads up! Got it all set to record, excited to see it.

Agreed. Also fun seeing the interactions between both sides and the songs were catchy enough. Definitely got a mix of Into the Spider-Verse coupled with Avengers: Endgame art/plot wise.

Finally caught Batman vs. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and it was a lot of fun. I did feel like Shredder/Baxter Stockman were kind of underutilized but seeing the TNMT and Batman/Robin/Batgirl fighting, then teaming up against Ra's Al Ghul & Shredder was worth it. Some good lines throughout for all parties and the

Batgallery taking the mutagen and the subsequent mutation effects were pure nightmare fuel, especially Two Face

in the classic 80s style cartoon way IMO. Also always a bonus to see Harley in her classic Jester costume. I've decided that costume helps accentuate Harley's emotions/feelings/non-verbalness much better than her other costumes seem to. Maybe it's a writing thing...

I also really liked the artwork too. It felt like a throwback to the comics Silver Age but it kind of worked well with everything going on. 7/10

Found this piece of artwork on Twitter via Paul Dini's retweet: New desktop background!

Hell Yeah!

Has anybody seen Batman: Soul of the Dragon yet? It dropped in January and I haven't heard much about it in any form or fashion.

We do appear to (finally) be getting a 2 part animated movie based off Batman: The Long Halloween which is something I've been waiting on for years.

@HarleyQuinn Opening your post with Hell Yeah makes me think you may be Kite Man.

I saw stuff on Soul of the Dragon but I got out of the habit of buying most of the DC releases when they went to DCU. I know some, not all, went to HBO Max and I need to see if the ones I never got around to watching all made it over.

I actually did pick up Batman vs Two-Face sometime in the past few months because I was curious about that one with the 66 style Batman casting William Shatner.
