Madame Xanadu Joins Swamp Thing

Ben Odinson

Today, the DC Universe twitter account that Madame Xanadu will be joining the cast of the upcoming DC Universe Swamp Thing series. The actress cast to play this mystical character is Jeryl Prescott. For those familiar with The Walking Dead series, she played Jacqui.     For a little bit of history about Madame Xanadu. She is a magic user who can sense mystical activity. Xanadu uses tarot cards to interpret what she senses and is also able to tell the future of others. I have to say that having…

Final Thoughts: Power Rangers Shattered Grid

Ben Odinson

What’s going on heroes and happy Thursday! It’s your boy, Ben, and I am coming at you with my final thoughts on the Boom! Studios’ Power Rangers event Shattered Grid. To start off with the ending, I thought it was well done for the most part. I could see as to why some fans were upset at the ending, but when fans really sit and think about it; I do not see how writers could keep telling the stories after that if the past team knows the future. With this…

Henry Cavill Exiting DC Extended Universe

Ben Odinson

Coming at you with some DC Extended Universe news this morning. The Hollywood Reporter has the scoop that Henry Cavill will no longer be the Man of Steel. Warners had been trying to enlist Cavill, who most recently co-starred in Mission: Impossible — Fallout, for a Superman cameo in Shazam!, which stars Zachary Levi and will bow April 5. But contract talks between Cavill’s WME reps and Warners broke down, and the door is now closing on other potential Superman appearances. That’s because the studio has shifted its focus to…

Ruby Rose cast as Batwoman

Ben Odinson

Happy Tuesday heroes, we have some big casting news. Ruby Rose is set to play Kate Kane aka Batwoman in the DC Arrow Universe. I have to say that I didn’t see this casting news coming so quickly. Since it’s only been three or four months since we learned that Batwoman would be coming to the CW universe. I have to say having Ruby Rose playing Kate is a solid choice. Given that Rose is openly gay and identifies on the gender fluid spectrum. I’m happy and hopeful that we get a…

Ben Odinson

What’s going on Heroes? Happy Friday! Usually I keep Cosplay Cafe light but I feel given what’s been happening that this interview with Cosplayers Survivor Support Network could not have come at a better time. A big thank you to Trickssi who runs CSSN for taking the time out to do another interview with us. This deals with subjects such as stalking, harassment, abuse, and assault. For readers who cannot handle that subject matter we understand. You can comeback in about two weeks and we will be back to our…

Shazam! Official Teaser Trailer

Ben Odinson

We have the teaser trailer for the upcoming Shazam! film which is set to come out next year. This is one of the DC Extended Universe films I’m excited for outside of WW84. We get to see a lighter tone to the DCEU that is much needed given the usual dark and gritty nature of these films. So enough of me talking, check out the Shazam trailer for yourself and I’ll catch you in the comment section with your thoughts and opinions. I think it’s going to be a positive…

Cosplay Cafe 43: Trickssi Cosplay

Ben Odinson

Happy Friday heroes! We have a new cosplay cafe with none other than Trickssi Cosplay. As always let us know what you think and I’ll catch you later.   1. What were you like growing up? What were some of the things that you were into as a child/teenager? I was a quiet, bookish kid until 5th grade or so when I started doing theatre (aka, my cosplay gateway drug: I loved playing dress-up). From there, I wrote, drew, danced, sang, acted, and filled my time with a lot of…

Titans Official Trailer

Ben Odinson

Good Morning heroes, we have the first trailer for the upcoming Titans series that is set to appear on DC Universe which is DC Comics Streaming service. I’ve been waiting for this trailer to come out and I wasn’t disappointed. It has that feel of the CW shows if they could be more mature if that makes sense. I’m reminded of Riverdale a little bit in terms of it looking dark, visually of course. Anyway, check out the trailer yourselves.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-PPofXaJ4go Centering the trailer around Raven was a great…

Voltron Season 7 Release Date

Ben Odinson

Happy Friday heroes, we have some quick news this morning. Voltron Legendary Defender season seven release date has been announced on Netflix to be August 10th. I saw the image of the release date circling around my own timeline and had to check Netflix myself to make sure I wasn’t seeing things and boom.   Yes, I know, not the best screenshot but I’m working with what I got guys and I’m surprised. I honestly did not expect us to be in a situation where were twenty eight days from…

Overwatch New Hero Wrecking Ball Trailer

Ben Odinson

Happy Thursday heroes, we have some Overwatch news. They’ve been teasing a new hero to join the ranks and today we have the reveal. It is a character who goes by the name Wrecking Ball and they’re a Hamster. I know some fans were upset that Overwatch hasn’t done a female black woman character and they’re valid in how they feel. This game that’s been celebrated for it’s diversity and inclusion is still missing a group that needs to be represented. Fans thought Efi Oladele was going to be a playable…
