FW SUBJECT PICK #8: LOSS OF TWO CREATORS

Its been a rather somber month indeed, as lost two big name creators being Stan Lee and Stephen Hillenburg. Stan Lee is the creator of Marvel Comics and the king of cameos. He had such a big and lasting impact on my life to the point where, without him I wouldn’t have gotten into reading […]

FW MOVIE PICK: BATMAN: GOTHAM BY GASLIGHT

A steampunk style “Batman”, sign me up and while I didn’t read the comic they say it does a better job at adapting the source material then “Batman: The Killing Joke” and that’s saying something! In an alternative Victorian Age Gotham City, Batman begins his war on crime while he investigates a new series of […]

FW MOVIE PICK: BATMAN AND HARLEY QUINN

It has been stated by Timm that he considers the film a spiritual successor to Batman: The Animated Series and I can clearly see that in this DC Animated Original Movie, but how does it fair overall!? Batman and Nightwing are forced to team with the Joker’s sometimes-girlfriend Harley Quinn to stop a global threat […]

FW MOVIE PICK: TEEN TITANS: THE JUDAS CONTRACT

Unlike “Justice League vs. Teen Titans”, this sequel focuses on the “Teen Titans” only and I’m very happy about that and consider the movie to be a huge improvement! Led by Starfire, the Teen Titans – Beast Boy, Raven, Blue Beetle, Robin and the just-returned Nightwing – have built a cohesive team in their never-ending […]

FW MOVIE PICK: JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK

And here we have another DC Animated Universe Movie centered on a different team, but this time we delve into the mystical variety and we also throw in “Batman” (even though he’s mostly there)! Beings with supernatural powers join together to fight against supernatural villains. This team of supernatural beings include John Constantine, Zatanna and […]

FW MOVIE PICK: BATMAN: THE KILLING JOKE

Every DC fan knows about the highly popular and controversial “Batman: The Killing Joke”, its known for showing “The Joker’s” origins, the shooting of Barbara Gordon and the ambiguous ending on whether or not “Batman” killed the Joker, so what went wrong here!? As Batman hunts for the escaped Joker, the Clown Prince of Crime […]

FW MOVIE PICK: JUSTICE LEAGUE VS. TEEN TITANS

After two kid-friendly Animated Shows (one famous and one infamous), the Teen Titans finally get the edgy animated movie they deserve even though its set in the DC Animated Movie Universe in the New 52 line-up! Robin is sent to work with the Teen Titans after his volatile behavior botches up a Justice League mission. […]

FW MOVIE PICK: BATMAN: BAD BLOOD

What drew me into this DC Animated Universe Movie is the introduction to “Batwoman” as well as its interesting plot involving possible replacements for “Batman”! Bruce Wayne is missing. Alfred covers for him while Nightwing and Robin patrol Gotham City in his stead. And a new player, Batwoman, investigates Batman’s disappearance. Tensions rise in this […]

FW MOVIE PICK: JUSTICE LEAGUE: GODS AND MONSTERS

I have to admit, when this DC Animated Universe Movie was first announced I was a bit puzzled to say the least considering I’m seeing a different versions of the trio! In an alternate universe, very different versions of DC’s Trinity (Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman), who operate outside of the law, are framed for […]

FW MOVIE PICK: BATMAN VS. ROBIN

The Court of Owls storyline is something I was very familiar with in the New 52 line-up, which is what kept me invested in this flick as well as its impactful title! While Damian Wayne struggles to cope with Batman’s no-killing rule, he soon starts to believe that his destiny lies within a secret society […]
