the 1930’s, the DC industry has changed every year. These changes have made the industry better, which led to DC Comics becoming one of the top comic industries. DC Comics is iconically known for producing the famous superheroes Superman and Batman. Starting in 1934, the Eastern Color Printing (ECP) started to published new-strip comics in Famous Funnies. Later on, imitators started to published King Comics and Popular Comics. The following year, the company made the first comic book to introduce
DC comics kicked off their cinematic universe with Man of Steel in 2013. I was extremely thrilled because I have been a lifelong DC fan and I waited my whole life for this cinematic universe. But everything has its goods and bads so does DCEU. DC started its universe to give competition to Marvel who has had its own universe started in 2008. DC was a bit late as compared to Marvel but it’s better late than never. DC fans were waiting for this universe for years and finally it is coming on big
recently saw the movie Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice. Being a comic book fan, particularly of DC comics, this movie was clearly a must see for me. When it comes to superhero movies, I believe the plot of the movie should accurately represent the stories told in the comics as best as they can. The same goes for the characters. The comics created these characters and their various stories, so the movies should closely follow the comics the best that they can. I did not feel Batman v. Superman: Dawn
powers nor does he come from another planet. According to DC comics Batman is “… An American billionaire… philanthropist, and owner of Wayne Enterprises”. He does however use his physical fitness, martial arts, and intellect to protect the citizens of Gotham City from villainess criminal activity. During the day, he is Bruce Wayne but at night he wears a bat mask, a utility
Superman V. Batman: Who is Greater? The most well known Superheroes from the DC universe are probably Batman and Superman. Many times, hardcore DC comic book fans dispute over who the better superhero is. Many like Batman for his gadgets and others for his looks, while others like Superman for his powers and abilities. I would personally say that Superman is the more capable and better Superhero. The main factor that tells me that Superman is a better Superhero is that fact that he actually has

With a 1.9 adults 18-49 rating and 4.8 million viewers, it was the network’s biggest premiere since The Vampire Diaries’ in 2009 (O'Connell).

So far it has been praised as one of the most promising new network shows this fall. The Flash fits into the CW brand well, especially as the network transitions to attract
Batman family is Robin. Depending on the timeline that the film takes place in, Robin would play a role no matter how big or small it might be. They could incorporate the romantic interaction between Robin/Nightwing and Batgirl like there was in the comics and various animated projects. What is great about Dick Grayson’s relationship with Barbara is that it could explored in a number of ways. Their first meeting through to their platonic relationship to their romantic
Scott McCloud says in Understanding Comics that “clothes…can trigger numerous transformations in the way others see us and in the way we see ourselves” (McCloud 38). The same could arguably be said about superheroes in costumes. When superheroes don their costumes, they take on the identity of another person to fight crime. When they return from a hard night’s work, they take off their costumes and revert back to their normal selves. However, which identity is their normal self: the civilian or

character Wonder Woman is widely seen through movies however, originally she started in comics. Comic books are an art form used to both entertain and inform. Wonder Woman was created to discuss women’s right to work but now represents empowerment for women. The character wonder woman was created in the year 1942 by Dr. William Moulton Marston (Lepore “The Suprising Origin Story Of Wonder Woman.”). All American Comics was founded by Gaines that reached out to Marston for help to get super heros back out
there were anxieties regarding censorship within graphic novels. As a consequence, in 1954, the Comics Magazine Association of America produced the Comics Code Authority, which adopted values from both the Association of Comics Magazine Publishers of 1948, and the 1930 Hollywood Production Code. The code was originally made for the protection of young and impressionable readers from the many issues within comic books, such as violence, illicit sexuality, and homosexuality.

After they stopped making The Dark Knight movies, everyone wondered if DC Comics would ever create another Batman movie. When Warner Bros announced that they were going to make a Batman vs Superman, directed by Zack Snyder, I was super hype because I know that Zack Snyder produced other high recognized Superman movies. Everyone was talking about how Batman vs Superman was going to be the movie of the year. People had high expectations for the movie and thought it was going to be just as good as The
season 4, there is one problem that sticks out to me whenever I think of the Arrowverse: there are absolutely no consequences. Comic books have a habit of bringing dead characters back to life. With so many different creators, series, crossovers, and more, it is not hard not to see why characters return from the dead. After so many different versions and years of comics, it is understandable that characters get a little jumbled but the CW shows have been going on for only a few seasons.
Patty Jenkins, also known as Patricia Lea Jenkins, is an American film director and screenwriter, once said, “It’s not easy to be a hero. You do it because of what you believe, not because of what other people deserve.” This may be interpreted as, you can’t just one day decide to be a hero and that heroes know what is right and they don’t care who deserves it or not. In the minds of these heroes everyone deserves to be saved, even if they have vendetta against them; that is what makes them a hero
The lesson to be learned in Watchmen and figuring out who the superhero and villain are in the novel can be interpreted many different ways by readers, because the story of Watchmen consists of many valuable characters. One of the most important figures in the story is the second Silk Spectre, otherwise most referred to as Laurie Juspeczyk. Laurie can be viewed as the strong, woman protagonist in Watchmen. She is proud of her Polish heritage, vocal in her feminist and humanitarian concerns, and is
