You never really grow out of loving Lego. Unfortunately, these plastic little bricks are expensive. Fortunately they go on sale pretty frequently, and as Lego-lovers ourselves we keep tabs on their prices. We’ve picked our favorite Lego deals out below, including options from several lines, such as Star Wars, Icons, Friends, Minecraft and Super Mario.

A new trailer featuring Christian Bale’s Batman has gone viral across social media platforms. However, the trailer is fake and uses AI-generated footage.

Justice League director Zack Snyder has opened up about how Superman’s story would have concluded in his final film for DCEU. Fans were left longing to witness Henry Cavill's Man of Steel reclaim his role as Earth's guardian post the events of Zack Snyder's Justice League. The unanswered question of how this iconic character would have restored hope and made a difference continues to captivate everyone's imagination.

2019's movie has been imagined as an open-world game. Considering the award-winning movie took a different approach to comic book movies, following the likes of and in its story and tone rather than following more classic comic book movie fare like the DC movies that came before it, it's the last movie anyone would expect to be adapted into a game, and yet it looks visually impressive.

With Joker: Folie à Deux inching closer to its release, fans have realised that Batman isn’t a part of this Joker’s story. This has raised many questions about whether we will ever get to see Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker facing off against Batman and whether it is even a good idea to make it happen in a Joker 3 movie.

If James Gunn is looking for an older actor to play Batman in the DCU, there’s really only one really good choice: Jim Caviezel.

Michael Keaton recently reflected on a funny interaction between him and Jack Nicholson while the former was training for his role in 1989’s .

Boyd Holbrook, known for his antagonist role in Logan, is rumored to be in talks to portray Harvey Dent in The Batman — Part II. Directed by Matt Reeves and starring Robert Pattinson as the titular character, The Batman was a critical and commercial success upon its release in 2022.

A Joker 2 test screening allegedly occurred, and reactions from the preview suggest fans of the first film will be pleased with the sequel, which may have some familiar faces alongside Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga.

Let me cut right through the preamble and toss you into the deep end of today's bargain bin. If you're a fellow Switch owner, I'd push you right towards the classic mascot price massacre that is Super Mario Odyssey at 52 bucks and Sonic Frontiers for 39. I'm also all about that Bruce Wayne PC sale, despite it also including Rocksteady's underwhelming latest. Honestly, just buy the LEGO Batman Trilogy for 7 clams instead...

While James Gunn's Batman: The Brave and the Bold project for his and Peter Safran's rebooted DC Universe is set to make a theatrical release in the Chapter One slate titled Gods and Monsters, one fan on social media has a strange question about the possibility of the Dark Knight appearing on the small screen.

In comics they're known as the Big Two. The House of Ideas and its Distinguished Competition. But now DC and Marvel are joining forces to publish two massive omnibus editions of classic crossovers where characters from both publishers meet, interact, and do battle.

Marvel and DC, like any good comic-book rivals, have been driven to unlikely team-ups. But for decades, that history of universe-bending crossover moments has existed only under comic book shop display cases and in the annals of wikis. That changes this summer, with the release of two epic collections rounding up the the rare encounters between Superman and Spider-Man, Batman and Captain America, the Teen Titans and the X-Men, as well as the even more twisted “Amalgam Age” stories, which melded Marvel and DC characters into singular heroes.

One of the most incredible voice actors in animation, the late Kevin Conroy, who passed away from cancer in 2022, has left fans with a legacy of outstanding performances as Batman in various animated features and video game iterations in the Arkhamverse, most notably in the classic noir-inspired Batman: The Animated Series. For legions of Batman fans, Conroy was the definitive Batman due to his superb voice acting, which captured all the character’s mystery, strength and nuances. There was outrage amongst fans after Conroy’s supposed last outing as the Caped Crusader was ill-received in the new video game Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. 

Voice actor Josh Keaton, who plays Robin in Batman: Arkham Origins, claims a Batman game he was working on was cancelled because of leaks, but another source suggests otherwise.

WB Games Montréal’s Damian Wayne Batman game was canceled following a series of leaks that revealed much about the unannounced project, a voice actor who worked on it has said.

star Jeffrey Wright is set to return for the film’s highly anticipated sequel, but he hasn’t seen any script for the movie just yet.

The upcoming Indiana Jones and the Great Circle will see veteran voice actor Troy Baker play the titular treasure hunter. Bethesda revealed that it is working on an Indiana Jones video game back in 2021, with subsidiary Wolfenstein studio MachineGames on developmental duties. There has been very little official information in the years since the Indiana Jones game’s first 30-second teaser trailer was shown, save that it is being produced exclusively for PC and Xbox consoles following Microsoft’s buyout of Bethesda parent company ZeniMax Media in 2021.

Fans who got to play Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League ahead of its launch next month have noticed an interesting tidbit about the game’s version of Batman: he will follow the player around the open world of Metropolis as only The Dark Knight can. Rocksteady held a closed alpha test for Suicide Squadback in November, allowing a small group of players to try the game out for themselves while Rocksteady tested its online servers. Rocksteady and WB Games also held a special preview event for Suicide Squad recently, allowing press members and social media influencers to play through the first few hours.

The best part of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League after playing it for a few hours is the story, and yes, it certainly seems like you will be killing characters you know and love. Lots of death happening. That’s also a big part of the problem I have with the entire premise. I can’t help but shake that there’s no way Rocksteady is going to let this stick. Our heroes have done terrible things. There will be a time reversal mechanic, or some alternate earth timeline that comes along and washes away all of the terrible awfulness that happened during the story. From enslaving a child form of Poison Ivy, to straight up watching your heroes murder people, there’s a lot here to make you feel a bit uncomfortable about the journey you’re being taken on. And when you pair this disconnect with game mechanics straight out of the likes of Destiny, Anthem, or Marvel’s Avengers, I’m left worried about the final product coming together in a way that works. The fun just wasn’t there for me. At least not yet.

A new live-action fan film based on the hit franchise has released a teaser trailer, previewing a new story written about Terry McGinnis.

Not too much is known about the upcoming , but DC Studios co-CEO did recently debunk a handful of rumors about what villains would be involved in the film.

Good people of the superhero comics community, I’ve kept quiet for 23-and-a-half months and I can remain silent no longer. It’s been almost two years since The Great Gatsby entered the public domain and yet — despite being absurdly overqualified for the job — Jay Gatsby is still not a Batman villain.

Batman has a long video game history, dating back to his debut on the Amstrad in 1986. However, the Caped Crusader's games started to take off in 2009 with Arkham Asylum. The subsequent Arkham series consists of possibly the best superhero games out there.

With November now behind us, we’ve combed through the latest movies to stream on Netflix, Hulu, Max, and more to bring you the best of what December has to offer.

Zack Snyder has talked about the new DCU – and he could be tempted back with one project in particular. 

Tim Burton's original 1989 Batman film casts a very long shadow over the superhero movie genre. Burton conjured a wonderfully gothic vision of Gotham City, while Michael Keaton's wired and dangerous take on the Caped Crusader remains rightly beloved - he certainly won our hearts again this year in The Flash.

Mark Hamill has doubled down on his retirement from voicing the Joker – and it's for a personal, pretty heartbreaking reason.

Dan Jurgens, the writer behind The Death of Superman - not to mention the creator of great characters like Jon Kent, Doomsday and Booster Gold - is uniting with artist Mike Perkins for The Bat-Man: First Knight.

It was announced a few weeks that DC Comics and Mark Waid would be returning to the universe of the groundbreaking Elseworlds series Kingdom Come in the pages of Batman/Superman: World's Finest. That arc started this week with #20 and, indeed, it wastes no time in getting Bruce Wayne and Clark Kent across the dimensional void with a little help from The Flash and his modified Cosmic Treadmill.

What are the best Batman games? Well, there a no shortage of contenders to choose from, because when you think about it Batman is the perfect video game protagonist. Bruce Wayne’s crime-fighting alter-ego excels at acrobatic hand-to-hand combat, of course, but he also has access to a wealth of high-tech gadgets and, beneath the cowl, is a detective at his core. Take all of this into account, and you have the blueprint for a decent adaptation of DC Comics’ so-called Caped Crusader.

Mondo, that legendary maker of tempting objects, has released the next figure in its line of 1/6th scale figurines honoring the 30th anniversary of Batman: The Animated Series and it’s the Phantasm. And boy does it look like an animation cell come to life, with a “billowing” and tattered cape painted dark on the inside and light on the outside, reproducing the villain’s faux-ghostly form to a T.
