Why I Loved Jared Leto as the Joker
There is a lot of hate out there for Jared Leto's interpretation of the Joker. I know I'm late to this conversation, but I saw the movie like two years after it came out and when I did, I had a set of fresh eyes, uninfluenced by the opinion of others, and I loved Jared Leto as the Joker.
Krista AlmazanPublished 6 years ago in GeeksThe Creepiest Batman Story
Okay, so this Batman story may just be one of my favorites. Not just for the writing, but for the art. It was written by Grant Morrison, who is a legend in the comic book industry. He's written epic stories like the Multiversity Event for DC comics, Batman & Robin (With Dick Grayson as Batman and Damian Wayne as Robin), All-Star Superman, and more. And that's just for DC Comics, he's written New X-Men for Marvel Comics and Spawn for Image Comics. He's also written his own fiction novels. Another interesting fact, this was his first Batman story, and after this story, he became a regular Batman writer.

If you are reading mainstream DC Comics that are under the DC Rebirth branding, then you probably know that Superman (Clark Kent) has a son named Jonathan Kent. And if you've been reading comics in the last decade or so, or even if you haven't, you probably know that Batman has a son named Damian Wayne, who is the current Robin.

So it’s that time of the decade again! A new director, a new direction, a new Batman. Or as we’re meant to believe, at least.
Christopher HalesPublished 6 years ago in GeeksHow a 1950s Justice League Movie Would Look
The 1950s had some great talent that is respected and honored to this day. With such talent, one might wonder how these actors could have fared in modern-day roles and movies. Here is a list of some 1950s actors and the Justice League roles they were made to play.

According to Ultimate Batman Comics Website, the first Batman story, “The Case of the Chemical Syndicate,” was published in Detective Comics #27 in the May of 1939. Since then, the stories of the legendary Batman have captured the hearts of America’s youth. The stories of Batman have intrigued its readers through all aspects of his character by relating to issues children face and giving them a hero to aspire to be.
Peyton MorrisPublished 6 years ago in GeeksLet's Discuss...Predictions for 'the Flash' Season Five
The Flash’s season four only ended a matter of days ago! You think it’s too soon to start theorizing the next season? Come on, speed up! See what I did there? No really, there have already been a number of rumours flying around the web even since before the finale aired! Now that the finale has aired, it’s time to do some deducting and sleuthing!
Christopher HalesPublished 6 years ago in GeeksThe Hero We Deserve: 10 Actresses Who Could Play Batwoman in the Arrowverse
Just a couple of days ago the star of Arrow himself, Stephen Amell, confirmed in an interview that Batwoman will be introduced in the next Arrowverse crossover, and fans couldn't be more excited. Batwoman is one of the most popular characters in comics and one of the most underrepresented characters in other media, meaning that her live-action debut is one of most exciting additions to the Arrowverse in recent memory. While she's likely to only be a one-time guest star, there are still a handful of big actresses who would want to don the cowl in such an anticipated arrival, and I think I have a few likely candidates for the role.
Jacob CraigPublished 6 years ago in GeeksWhat's Next for the Man of Steel?
Ok, so if you're a diehard DCEU fan like me (meaning you like MOS and BvS and not only WonderWoman), there's a good chance that you weren't blown away by Justice League. Yes, the film accomplished what it set out to do, namely unite the core members of the league and also bring Superman back from the grave to join his costumed cohorts in time to save the world. I enjoyed the film for what it was (a straight-forward superhero action film), but I still find myself feeling shortchanged by the thought of what this team up of DC's greatest heroes should've been: an epic cinematic masterpiece. The film's weak box office performance is proof that studios need to let their directors make the films they set out to make rather than forcing them to readjust their films in a desperate attempt to mimic another, massively popular comic book film universe (which shall remain nameless).
Matthew FratiPublished 6 years ago in GeeksSuperman at 80 and Why I Defend the Man of Steel
April 18th, 2018: Superman turned 80 years old, and also on this day, the 1,000th issue of Action Comics was released.In 1938, Superman made his comic book debut as the first real superhero. The Man of Steel and his alias, Clark Kent, has inspired millions of people and generations all over the world. Superman is a proud advocate of talking about fighting for truth, justice, and the American way. He may be a fictional character, but he continues to be adored by countless fans everywhere. On his birthday, I have shared and reposted numerous pictures of people showing love to their favorite character. Most of those pictures were of cosplayers dressing up in full costume. I also posted some photos of myself cosplaying as Clark Kent and as Superman.
Mark Wesley PritchardPublished 6 years ago in Geeks'Watchmen:' A Review
Before I begin, I'll offer a fair warning that this review may contain story spoilers, and is about the graphic novel only, not the movie. The Watchmen story written by Alan Moore, with art by Dave Gibbons and colorist John Higgins was, up until recently, the most well-known graphic novel I knew virtually nothing about. In fact, that I knew up to that point was only really what I had drawn from the movie adaptation by Zack Snyder, the director's cut which amounted to something three hours long and sometimes confusing.
The One True GeekologyPublished 6 years ago in GeeksWhy Oliver Queen Should Out Himself As Green Arrow in Season Six Finale
For those who have been watching Season Six of the show, or the show since day one to be honest, you know that Oliver Queen has sometimes struggled with keeping his identity as a vigilante a secret. Seasons One and Three have seen Oliver have to cover up his identity as Star City’s (or Starling City’s) hero, one of those incidents causing Roy Harper, Oliver’s trusted sidekick, to take the wrap at one point and fake his death.
