Batman voice actor Kevin Conroy says Flashpoint is DC's next animated movie

Those looking for more Flash centered features or lead on animated films to DC The New 52 may finally get their wish after all, and as the tagline goes: "Everything will change in a Flash".


While being interviewed by Comic Book Club, famous Batman voice actor Kevin Conroy said he's currently doing work on DC Comics' next animated film feature, revealing that it's "Flashpoint" - based on the 2011 storyline by Geoff Johns and Andy Kubert that centers around Barry Allen/ The Flash and an alternative timeline where everything is not what it seems. If that's true, then the popular actor who voiced the Caped Crusader in Batman: The Animated Series and Batman: Arkham City will be voicing the Batman from Flashpoint, who's revealed to be none other than Thomas Wayne, Bruce's father who survived the mugging attack instead of his son. While there has yet to be an official announcement from DC Entertainment, it's a safe bet that it will be coming real soon.

DC Comics to release #0 issues for New 52 Anniversary


Come September, DC Comics will be celebrating one year of it's launch of The New 52 Universe, which practically rebooted its entire comic book universe and gave a fresh new take to most of its character roster. To commemorate the occasion, the publisher will be releasing a full wave of #0 books of each of their titles, with adventures that precede and take place before the actual events that occur in the #1 issues. Regular numbering for all books will cease that month, and will resume once more with #13 on October. As these books will detail origin stories and flashbacks, it sounds very reminiscent of DC's "Zero Hour" event back in the 90's, which bore a similar marketing strategy that aimed to attract old and new readers into the fold. Whether or not this plays into current events, including the impending 2013 event "Trinity War", remains to be seen. For more on the story, visit the source post at Bleeding Cool and Comic Book Movie.

Expect the New "Zero Hour" 52 to hit all issues of DC Comics in September!

Reports have been swirling online that DC Comics was planning a major event for 2013 called Trinity War, which would be the first big thing happening for their New 52 universe. Now via Bleeding Cool, concrete details have finally emerged, and it's packed with SPOILERS. It's not so much a Marvel Civil War styled throwdown by the Big Three as initially expected, as more elements are at play than realized. One thing for certain is that the mysterious woman Pandora plays into it. Read the rest of the revealing details after the jump below, as well as the revealing gatefold image from the DC Comics FCBD book by Geoff Johns and Jim Lee coming up this Free Comic Book Day in May.

Beware The Batman Teaser Trailer!

God Of War: Ascension info and trailer goes online!

Anyone who owns a Playstation and knows the name Kratos certainly knows God Of War... And now news has leaked that will excite those itching for a return to bloodbath and action gaming galore!



When we last left the man also known as The Ghost of Sparta, Kratos destroyed everything and took out just about everything standing in his way in God Of War III for the Playstation 3. Following that, another prequel was released for the Playstation Portable, God Of War: Ghost of Sparta, which added another layer of tragedy and conflict to his story. Now, people are waiting for God Of War IV... But there has yet to be an official announcement for that sequel. However, a new trailer has popped up, as well as details for a new game: God Of War: Ascension. It is indeed the newest chapter of Kratos' journey... but it looks like another prequel.

Rumor: DC Comics planning "Trinity War" event on 2013!

It's a trending topic in the rumor mill currently, and various sources like Comic Book Movie and Bleeding Cool are reporting it.



Apparently, DC Comics is planning a major event/ crossover next year called "Trinity War", which is rumored to focus on a division and eventual battle between the publisher's big three icons, namely Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman. It sounds very reminiscent of Marvel's own 2006 - 2007 crossover series "Civil War", which saw the hero community split and forced to choose a side over the passing of a Superhero Registration Act. The consequences of this event divided the Marvel Universe greatly and changed it for a number of years, and now the same may happen to the DC New 52 Universe with their upcoming 2013 crossover. Until official word comes from DC itself, consider this a rumor at best... But it definitely gets the blood pumping for fans who want to see a throwdown between the Trinity and their allies!
