What would happen if you had a dual personality leading a life, completely oblivious and on contrary to your own? And what if that person inside you made a deal with an Egyptian god in return for doing his deeds?

Well – that exactly is the all new Marvel Studios’ show Moon Knight all about. The show which is based on the original Marvel comic book of the same name is a story about the night vigilante who gained his powers because of the Egyptian moon god, Khonsu. The alter ego of this character is a little complicated, As in the show Moon Knight is made up of two characters, Steven with a V the museum gift shop salesman and the ruthless mercenary Marc Spector. But while we look into the comic book there is one more person named Jake Lockley in them as well. All three of them mixed up in a chaotic manner makes the character one of the most interesting of them all. The show has Oscar Issac in the role of Moon Knight while Ethan Hawke plays the main antagonist.

The biggest blockbuster that was released in the early stages of 2022 can be given credit to the all new Matt Reeves’ The Batman. The movie which takes up an account on the dark and neo-noir detective side of the character presenting Robert Pattinson as the young version of Bruce Wayne/Batman in his youth age of crime fighting. Though the movie has left a deep impact on the minds of movie watchers and comic book geeks likewise, due credit is to be given to the man who gave forth a performance which is likely to go down in history as one of the greatest endeavors you’ll ever see.

Edward Nashton/The Riddler played by Paul Dano has left the viewers in splits. The character has been only portrayed once in the cinematic live version of the Batman universe previously by Jim Carrey in the rather forgettable 90s movie, Batman Forever. Paul Dano has convinced us that he can pull off such an interesting character with a heavy tone making it thrilling and at some points horrific as well. But the journey for Paul Dano with The Riddler does not come to an end, As revealed by the director himself on twitter, A Riddler: Year One comic is in the making and is being penned by Dano himself. The comic book will be a bimonthly six-issue comic which will be launching in October 2022 delving into the dark mind of this iconic villain setting up the background which made him set upon to take the actions he did in the movie. This will provide a whole lot more information for the character, compensating for the 15 minute screen time he got in the almost 3 hour movie.

A premeditated disclosure by DC Comics is leaving fans fuming before the approaching release of Batman #50

Text credit: Charishma Thankappan

If you thought superheroes had a tough life, there is one who probably has it the hardest. While we do see our beloved superheroes beaming with happiness and relief after saving other people, the city, the country, or even the planet; Batman’s joy is the most short-lived.

In the upcoming comic to be released by DC Comics on July 4 – Batman #50 – in an exchange between Batman and Catwoman, the latter tells the hero why he is doomed to a life of misery. The as yet unreleased comic book has been preceded with spoilers from the publisher, which has not gone down well with fans at all as it has probably revealed the gist of the issue, leaving little else for readers to look forward to.

The spoilers, announced on July 1, disclose that the much-awaited wedding of Batman and Catwoman doesn’t take place. The reason is Catwoman’s explanation, which sounds almost bizarre. She tells him that if they get married, they would live happily, which is against the life of superheroes, who are supposed to make sacrifices. “How can I do that. To save the world, heroes make sacrifices. My sacrifice is my love. It’s you,” she says. The idea that Batman needs agony and will cease to be a superhero if Bruce Wayne is happy, comes out as a rather sadistic theme developed by author Tom King for his creation.

Fans have however expressed their vehement outrage at being denied the mystery of the latest issue. With the climax of the story being admitted by the makers themselves, enthusiasts are bewildered by the company’s act, and are finding no point in awaiting the latest comic.

So I’ve already had three people call to cancel their pre-order for Batman #50. I feel like @DCComics owes me money now.

IV’E 👏🏼 ALREADY👏🏼 PAID👏🏼 FOR👏🏼 THESE👏🏼 ISSUES. 👏🏼@TomKingTK, you really shot yourself in the foot dude.

Thanks @nytimes for costing me money.

Whoever’s spoiling the new issue of Tom King’s Batman, can you please knock it off? I’d like to read the damn thing, not ruin it for me

Some readers are hoping that the revelations aren’t true and are just a twisted form of promotional scheme!

I’m really hoping that the New York Times article with the Batman 50 spoilers is just a marketing gimmick and that this isn’t how the actual story goes down
