Some Sweet DC Comic-Con Trailers
Today is the last day of San Diego Comic-Con, and I’m sure they’ve got some big news coming out. Will anything top what Marvel Studios revealed last night? Who knows! But DC put out a couple of really awesome trailers I wanted to share. There’s a whole bunch of trailers from the event, but I’m gonna sparse them out.
First up is a new trailer for The Penguin, which still looks like an awesome, gritty crime drama, which is exactly what I want this show to be.
I wish we had more references to Batman in this trailer, because he should be a presence in this movie, but I’ll take what I can get. Cristin Milioti looks awesome of Sophia Falcone, and it sounds like they’re doing a bit of The Hangman storyline. Should be a blast! And Colin Farrell looks crazy good!
The Penguin is coming to Max on Sept. 19.
Then we got the first trailer for Creature Commandos, the animated series that kicks off James Gunn’s new DC Universe! And it looks great, as far as I’m concerned.
Looks fun, looks wacky, looks like what I’d expect Creature Commandos to look like. So I’m jazzed for this show. and I’m jazzed to see some of these characters appear in live action afterwards, like Rick Flagg Sr. joining the second season of Peacemaker. So these are definitely some shows I’m looking forward to watching later this year!
Creature Commandos is coming to Max in December.

Rick and Morty is Gonna Be a Wild Anime
I still enjoy watching Rick and Morty, even if it’s heyday is behind us. I still enjoy watching South Park, too. I’m just that kind of cartoon guy. And I definitely enjoy when shows like this take a big swing. Rick and Morty has now produced 10 episodes of Rick and Morty: The Anime, and it looks wild.
So yeah, not entirely sure what to make of that trailer other than just being generally excited! It looks wild, it looks weird, it’s made from real anime people. The show is already pretty wild, but this one could be so weirdly fun. I’m fully on board and can’t wait to watch!
Rick and Morty: The Anime is coming to Adult Swim and Max on Aug. 15.

They Made a New ASDF Movie
ASDF is this weird, funny, random internet silliness bit. They’ve been putting out content for a decade now…longer? I dunno. It’s Friday morning, I’m still in the middle of a busy work for week, and I just wanna post something silly and fun. I like this. I hope you do too.
They’re also selling a game or a hat or something. Who can tell. I just want a nice, relaxing Friday before diving back into the belly of the work beast tomorrow morning.
Oh, also, I just found this bit of deleted scenes! So it’s bonus ASDF content!
Good times, everybody!

Kite Man: Hell Yeah! Is Gonna Be a Fun Show!
I’ll admit that I was rather disappointed in the latest and fourth season of Harley Quinn. It had lost some of the snap of the first couple of seasons. And that’s probably because the showrunners in the beginning spun off to make Kite Man: Hell Yeah! so I am now very excited to see what they’ve produced!
The trailer looks like a hoot! Funny, wacky, and with some solid, enjoyable characters. We already know that Kite Man is awesome. Now we’ve got Golden Glider to add to the fun. And Bane is back, so that’s awesome. I expect great things from this show! And I hope the fifth season of Harley Quinn is also good!
Kite Man: Hell Yeah! comes to Max on July 18!

Batman: Caped Crusader Looks Pretty Sweet!
There’s a new Batman cartoon coming! We haven’t had one of those in a few years, and this one looks to be pretty spiffy! Batman: Caped Crusader is going to focus on Batman in a 1920s/30s/40s aesthetic, I don’t know which decade this looks to be exactly. It’s all tommy guns and gangsters in full suits. I love the look and feel of the show, based on this first trailer.
As always, I hope we get Robin eventually. But even without the Boy Wonder, this looks very awesome to me. I love the look, I love the feel, I love the focus this trailer puts on detective work. I love the sense of Batman being this lone crusader working from the shadows, instead of already being an omnipresent superhero of might. This trailer looks great!
Batman: Caped Crusader is coming to Amazon Prime starting Aug. 1!
