5 DC Superhero Movies That Need To Be Made

In 1989, DC Comics released Batman on the fiftieth anniversary of the characters creation.  The movie starred Michael Keaton as the Caped Crusader with Jack Nicholson as his enemy, The Joker.  After a series of less-than-quality sequels, DC rebooted the series in 2005 with a blockbuster smash. In its wake, they followed this up with sequels of Batman, rebooted (and will soon reboot again) Superman (2006), and finally the Green Lantern (2011). They also made Constantine (2005), but it was so bad, I don't like to count it. In the meantime, DC's arch-enemy, Marvel Comics, has dominated the silver screen with movies of X-Men, Spider-Man, the Fantastic Four, Iron Man, the Hulk, Thor, Daredevil, Elektra, Wolverine, and the Punisher.  What's going on DC?  You're owned by Time Warner and Disney!  Get on the ball and give us some quality superhero movies to choose from your list.  What superheroes movies would you like to see come out from DC?  Here are five DC Comics really needs to keep up with Marvel when it comes to movies. Here are 5 DC Superhero Movies that need to be made. Batman's great - but try these! Read more...

I grew up on Batman comics.  From the Justice League of America on Saturday morning cartoons to the live series starring Adam West to the comic books, Batman was always one of the best superheroes around.  As a teenager and young adult, I even owned a comic book store with my parents where I had the opportunity to learn about all sorts of comics.  Batman still remained one of my favorites.  I thought I knew everything about Dark Knight, but I was wrong.  Here is a list of interesting facts about Batman lore that I never heard of and I am betting that it will be new to you, as well!

Best DetectivesThe detective novel or crime fiction book has been around for centuries.  Some state that the origin is as old as the Bible (see the Old Testament story of Susanna and the Elders, Daniel 13).  Others claim it is a nineteenth century origin with the likes of number one on our list (they would be wrong, by the way).  No matter where it came from, the detective is a fan favorite of many people - solving crimes through his mind and wit and empirical evidence.  The detective writer takes us through twists and turns only to blind side us with the truth at the end of the story - and we eat it up!  Who are the best fictional detectives, though?  Here are my favorite, but did your super sleuth make the list?  Find out below...
