Upcoming DC Animated Black Adam, Green Lantern and Batman features
July 13th, 2010 Posted in DC Animated, Marvel Animated
Apparently the engine of DC Direct to DVD movies continues to move forward (compare that with Marvel, whose next DVD is 2011′s Thor, Son of Asgard) with a collection of the DC Showcase short films starring the Spectre, Jonah Hex and Green Arrow, together with a new film Superman/Shazam!: The Return of Black Adam, which according to Comics Continuum will run an extended 22 minutes. That, combined with the Batman Year One film (with Comics Continuum’s later update) and Green Lantern Emerald Nights, means that DC has already matched Marvel’s direct-to-DVD effort, in less time (DC started their film offerings in 2007, Marvel in 2006) and have more in the pipeline. Hopefully Jeph Loeb will be giving DC more of a challenge.
