Zubatman: The Animated Series

That this exists is a testament to the power and majesty of the human spirit. I am speechless in its awesomeness.

A Zubat, of course, is a pokemon, in case you couldn’t tell. Brought to us by Terminal Montage, who deserves some kind of trophy for winning the Internet.

B is for Batman; C is for Cookie

This speaks for itself. Watch and laugh, my friends.

I’m not sure who made it, but it is beyond hilarious. Oh Internet comedy, I love you.

Robot Chicken DC Superhero Special Looks Awesome

The Robot Chicken Star Wars specials were brilliant, and it looks like the DC Special is going to be just as awesome! This stuff is hilarious!

The Special premieres on Sept. 9 on Adult Swim. Should be fantastic.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt Loves His Dark Knight Role As Much As Me

I’m going to be a dear and not spoil Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s surprise role in The Dark Knight Rises – the role other than Police Officer John Blake. But anyone who read my review knows I absolutely loved the twist at the end. On Jimmy Kimmel Live the other night, Gordon-Levitt and Jimmy said a few words about it, and I decided to share. So SPOILER warnings on, people. There’s also a funny story about Muppets.

Catwoman Fights Injustice, Still No Word on Robin

Does everybody remember the upcoming DC fighting game called Injustice: Gods Among Us? It’s still coming out, and the addition of Catwoman to the roster apparently deserves its own unique game trailer. I’m not all that impressed by what I’ve seen so far. It looks like your standard Mortal Kombat-style fighter, only loaded with gimmicks like interactive environments. When game developers crow about how awesome their gimmicks are, that’s usually a good sign that gameplay itself is going to be crummy

But at least they’re only using DC characters this time instead of making an awkward crossover with Mortal Kombat. Or that one time Marvel invented a whole new slew of characters called the Imperfects rather than just have Marvel characters fighting each other.

Injustice: Gods Among Us is due to be released sometime next year. The roster of playable characters that we know so far are Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Harley Quinn, Solomon Grundy, Cyborg, Nightwing and now Catwoman. There are supposed to be many more characters yet to be revealed, and I’m paying as close attention as I can to whether or not they include Robin on that roster. They have Nightwing, but I want Robin himself.

Because c’mon, people, let’s be serious here: how cool would it be to have a Batman vs. Robin fight? Why would you pass up on this opportunity when developing such a game? You want people to be invested in your fights, right? Can you imagine a more emotional, meaningful fight than Batman vs. Robin?

And then imagine if Robin won
