With excitement building for this week's SDCC, there are some thrilling rumors swirling about The CW's TV shows! My fellow Creator Awad Daniel has already summarized the rumors, but here I want to focus in on the more Bat-centric ones.

Gabriel Luna's new #GhostRider has roared on to the scene in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s season premiere, "The Ghost"! It's a tremendously effective episode, exploiting the later timeslot to tell a far darker story than we've ever seen before in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. But here are some of the details you may have missed...
Excitement's building for Season 4 of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.! The Season 4 premiere packed a lot in, teasing several key plots for the rest of the season. It seems we're going to be seeing more of #Quake struggling to control her powers in a time of emotional tumult, as well as Fitz's potentially disastrous dabbling with virtual reality. A recent interview with Gabriel Luna (Marvel's #GhostRider) gave us a tantalizing hint of what to expect — is the series going to be introducing the character of #Mephisto?
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. has always excelled at weaving a complex narrative filled with plots and sub-plots — and so far, Season 4 has proven to be no exception! From supernatural threats to the growing danger of LMDs, S.H.I.E.L.D. has no shortage of enemies. Returning after its mid-season break, though, a plot that's been simmering in the background has moved to center-stage — a deadly force known as the Watchdogs. Who are they, what are their origins, and where is this plot likely to go?
2017 will be the Year of the Superhero, but one of the most promising comic book-inspired shows doesn't even star a hero. Marvel and Fox are working together on Legion, an offbeat series starring a powerful mutant who suffers from Dissociative Identity Disorder.
If you ask any X-Men fan what spin-off TV series they'd like to see, you'll get titles like X-Factor, Excalibur, or even Exiles. I'm pretty sure that one of the last names you'd hear would be 'Legion' - and yet, that's the character who's coming to Fox TV! Since Legion was first announced, fans have speculated about which comic book plots would impact the show. Finally, it looks like we're finding out...
Back in 2015, Marvel and Netflix launched their partnership with the hit series Daredevil. Jessica Jones was another tremendous success, and both shows were renewed for second seasons, although Jessica Jones Season 2 isn't expected until 2018. Now, it looks as though Luke Cage is joining the ranks of the renewed — it's official that we'll see a second season of everybody's favorite "bulletproof black man!"
At last week's New York Comic Con, fans got the chance to get a sneak preview of the first 30 minutes of Legion — the revolutionary Marvel / Fox X-Men TV series! Expectations had been raised after a fantastic trailer at San Diego Comic Con earlier in the year — check it out below if you need a refresher:
In 2014, #Marvel announced that their Phase 3 slate would include an Inhumans movie. Two years on, Inhumans had dropped off the radar, and fans were only able to see Inhuman action over in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.. Now, in a truly exciting new development, Marvel has announced that the Inhumans are becoming the stars of their own TV series. We don't yet know much about this new project, but here are five questions that fans are sure to be asking...
X-Men fans rejoice! For all the rumors of hostility between Marvel and Fox, today Variety exclusively reported that an X-Men TV series is in the works - co-produced by Marvel Entertainment and Fox! Fox has signed up to what's called a "Put Pilot," essentially meaning that the network must air the pilot - or face substantial financial penalties. So this looks like a sure thing!
Excitement is building for The Punisher, the unexpected sixth Marvel Netflix series. Introduced in Daredevil Season 2, Jon Bernthal's Punisher was so popular that Marvel and Netflix quickly signed him up for his own show. With filming underway, fans are hopeful that the series will air as soon as next year! What few fans realize, though, is that the Punisher is actually a bit of a gamble for Marvel. Here's why...
Excitement is building for Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 4, which features the MCU introduction of a brand new Ghost Rider! Revealed at SDCC 2016, Ghost Rider's presence marks the moment Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. dives into the realm of the supernatural. I'll keep you up-to-date on the news and rumors...
