The new Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice trailer has arrived, with verbal...
I’ve never quite understood all the hate for 2013’s Man of Steel, which I quite liked. The biggest of the problems people seem to have with it — the wide-spread destruction and Superman killing Zod —...

We’ve seen the terrifying “Super Baby” rag dolls before, and the less said about them, the better. The Bat-Clock is a fresh face, though, and a fine addition to any nightstand. It talked! But what did...

Trading Card Set of the Week – Saga of the Dark Knight (1994, SkyBox)
As we’ve already noted, the first two major 1990s DC trading card sets had a glaring absence: Batman, in fact the entire Batman sphere, was nowhere to be found. This was because Impel had the license...
