Lex Luthor is a Jerk to California
A genius known only as Nick Acosta spliced together footage from the original Superman movie with the trailer for the upcoming San Andreas movie. They go together flawlessly – at least if you hold this video to the standards of 1978 special effects. I think I actually liked this trailer more than I liked all of Man of Steel.

Our First Look at the New Supergirl TV Show!
Rather than let photographic snoopers spoil the secret, DC Comics and CBS have released a few official images of the new Supergirl costume! It looks pretty great! I guess this show is going to be real, and they’re not going to pull any Smallville garbage by saving the super-suit until the final minute of programming. I like that TV shows are embracing the costumes. Filming for the pilot is already underway. The actress is Melissa Benoist.
I like that they gave her leggings and long boots to go along with her skirt. No need for any unnecessary exposed skin. This is definitely a solid costume. It was designed by Colleen Atwood, who also designed the costumes for Arrow and The Flash, and it would definitely fit into those other shows.
I even like the new S-shield, even if it’s got more blue than normal.
If Supergirl is half as good as Arrow and The Flash, we’ll definitely have the makings of another great superhero show! Consider me finally excited for this show. What do you henchies think?

Dorkly Knows Superheroes
Dorkly is usually all about video games, but they understand superheroes too, and are just saying what we’re all thinking.
For my money, Captain America: Civil War is easily going to trounce Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice!
And on a personal note, sorry for being so quiet this week, everything! I’ve been pretty busy, and I might have some good news on the horizon! I’ll let you all know when and if I can!

Jason Momoa’s Aquaman is Just as Badass as I’d Hoped
The first picture of Jason Momoa’s Aquaman was posted online by director Zack Snyder early this morning, proving that I was right all along about how cool the King of the Seas will be in Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice.
I wonder if he’ll kill a man with that trident
I love the armor, I love the badass tattoos, I’m not too wild about the hair, but overall, this looks great! I knew Momoa would bring that Islander power to the role, changing Aquaman from a white-skinned, blonde-haired American into a more world-inclusive king. Though I am starting to get a little freaked out at how dark and brooding this movie seems. Everybody is turning out to be as dark as Batman in this flick. And if you take away Batman’s darkness and share it with everybody, what else does he have?
Either way, at least we know Aquaman will be cool.

Enjoy Some Fan Trailer Wackiness
The intrepid people of the Internet are at it again! I found a couple of fun fan trailers to spruce up our Tuesday!
First up is a pretty neat LEGO trailer for Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice. It comes courtesy of Brickflix, who sound like this is what they do for a living, thereby making me extremely jealous.
Next up is a trailer for the Suicide Squad movie, done up by our friend and fan trailer aficionado Alex Luthor. It’s also pretty neat.
The important thing is that you enjoy this Tuesday. Of course, you might not all be as buried in snow and below zero temperatures as I am.
