Arrowverse Crossover Gets a Title, Adds The Monitor
A lot of details on this year’s Arrowverse crossover are being kept under wraps. The three-episode event will feature Batwoman, Superman, Lois Lane, Nora Fries, and more characters. We will also be visiting Gotham City and Arkham Asylum. Now, we know what the title is, while a key DC character has been cast. This year’s crossover event is titled “Elseworlds.” Any diehard DC Comics fan will immediately identify that name. Traditionally, Elseworlds was the name of a banner for non-canon stories by DC.

HELLBOY Reboot Pushed Back to Spring 2019
Fans have been wondering when we’d get a first look at the new Hellboy movie, which had been scheduled to come out in January. Since we’re so close to that release date, why hasn’t marketing begun yet? Turns out, it’s not coming out in January anymore. Originally set for January 11th, Hellboy will now hit theaters on April 12th, 2019. No reason was given for the three-month delay, but this will allow more time for an effective marketing campaign. This also puts the film one week after DC’s Shazam! and a few weeks before Marvel’s Avengers 4. Hopefully, it won’t have any trouble keeping legs in between. Hellboy will be at…
