A Titan-ic romance in 2016?

Sorry Jason Todd and Roy Harper, for Starfire fans it was always about Dick Grayson…unless they’re in the Barbara Gordon/Grayson camp.

Before The New 52, Dick Grayson was Robin then Nightwing and he fell in love with an alien warrior princess from Tamaran.

The legendary Marv Wolfman era Titans team lives on in Titans Hunt #1 which arrives this week. This is a new spinoff after the successs of Convergence.

In The New 52, The Teen Titans are different but Dick and Kori had a brief relationship before she joined Red Hood and the Outlaws. Dick no longer had a code-name, faked his death and is an undercover spy. Kori is living in the Florida Keys on her own in a new ongoing. The star-crossed former lovers reunite but will it last?

Up front confession:

Three Batman books make the list but with three huge finales and foreshadowing major changes to the Bat-family how could we refuse?

2015 promises shattering changes for Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman and the entire Multiverse.

The main event – Convergence – could actually shake up DC Comics continuity all over again.

With teases of so many classic stories and lost heroes could DC give fans the old school and New 52 lines?

2014 gave us Lex Luthor leading the Justice League so who knows what could happen?

Let’s go to the list: Continue reading MOST ANTICIPATED DC COMICS 2015

Convergence is the 2015 event bringing back heroes and villains from multiple Earths and continuities. Brainiac collects lost Earths in bottles like Kandor until he opens them on a mysterious planet. The teaser starring new villain Telos and characters from classic DC eras inspired fans to wonder which classic heroes will finally enter The New 52 continuity.

Donna Troy is one of our top characters to make a comeback in Convergence. Troy has multiple powers and identities (Wonder Girl, Darkstar, Troia) so if she returns, which costume and code-name will it be? Continue reading DONNA TROY Returns In CONVERGENCE

A new hero joins the Superman vs. Batman movie. Let the speculation begin.

 

Ray Fisher will play Cyborg in the untitled Man of Steel sequel.  Could it mean the Superman (Henry Cavill) vs. Batman (Ben Affleck) film could be the foundation for a New 52 version of a Justice League film?

 

Gal Gadot is playing Wonder Woman. Is Cyborg a major fourth heroic role or a supporting character Warner Brothers has bigger (or should I say Titanic) plans for? Continue reading CYBORG SUPERHERO MOVIE FUTURE
