In an interesting turn of events, considering just how badly The Flash is doing at the box office (thanks no doubt to Ezra Miller controversy), Warner Bros. has just announced a new DC project in the form of a podcast entitled The Flash: Escape the Midnight Circus.
An incredible collection of DC comics is up for Sotheby’s auction

Superhero Week: 6 speed draws of superheroes!
Have you watched a speed draw on YouTube yet? I find them mesmerising and a reminder of how little (read: none) artistic skill I have. I love to watch them, though, whether we’re watching a Photoshop pro user speed through the controls to bring a hero to life or someone with inks in their hands […]

Superheroes and words of wisdom
Adam Thompson is a graphic designer based in Carbondale, USA. His series Heroic Words of Wisdom is designed to try and bring some of iconic superhero dialogue out from the pages of comic books and to a wider audience. In my mind, one of the most famous pieces of comics dialogue is the oath sworn […]
Superhero Week: Mike Mahle’s Justice League Series
Mike Mahle draws superheroes and sirens with bold colours and brave lines. It’s a style I adore and so encourage you to stalk his Facebook and admire his Deviant Art. The images below are part of his Justice League series. He manages to make them look far more interesting than some of the official covers […]
Superhero Week: Behind the scenes at The Flash pilot episode
This is almost painful to post. I’m still waiting for Arrow season 2 to appear on Amazon Instant Video or Netflix in the UK. It’s Arrow which introduces Flash.
