REVIEW: Justice League of America (1997)
Justice League of America Directed By: Félix Enríquez Alcalá Produced By: Larry Rapaport I’d like to quote one writer and say this is 80 minutes of my life I won’t get back.

And while I realize this was for, Fire and Ice’s costumes don’t look right at…

ARROW Finally Unmasks Vigilante in This Week’s Episode

This week’s Arrow was already a big deal, due to Deathstroke’s return. But the episode’s other subplot dealt with the unmasking of Vigilante. Safe to say, a lot of fans probably didn’t expect this one. [Warning: The Following Contains SPOILERS From This…
