    Lanterns Premiere and Green Lantern Corps #17 | Fantastic Forum

    This week on Fantastic Forum, we’re heading into the DC Universe for a double dose of Green Lantern action, as we take a look at HBO’s highly anticipated Lanterns and one of the latest chapters of Green Lantern Corps! First up is Lanterns on HBO, starring Kyle Chandler as veteran Green Lantern Hal Jordan and Aaron Pierre as newly recruited John Stewart. Created by Chris Mundy, Damon Lindelof, and Tom King, the series takes the cosmic mythology of the Green Lanterns and brings it down to Earth for a mystery involving the two Lanterns and a murder investigation in rural Nebraska. With Nathan Fillion as Guy Gardner, Ulrich Thomsen as Sinestro, and Kelly Macdonald as Sheriff Kerry, the series blends superhero mythology with the feel of a grounded detective thriller. We’re breaking down the premiere, the performances, the mysteries, and what Lanterns could mean for the future of the DC Universe. Then we turn to Green Lantern Corps #17, written by Morgan Hampton, with art by Fernando Pasarin and Oclair Albert. The Manhunters are pressing their attack, and the Lanterns face an impossible challenge as they attempt to protect Ophidian. When Effigy goes supernova on the sun, transforming it into a black hole, the Lanterns must race past the event horizon to save Ophidian and prevent Oa and New Thanagar from being plunged into catastrophic ice ages. We’re talking about the escalating Emotional Spectrum storyline, Guy Gardner’s increasingly important role, and whether this issue delivers another major turning point for the Corps.

    Batman: Caped Crusader Season 2 and Dark Knights of Steel II #1 | Fantastic Forum

    This week on Fantastic Forum, we’re heading back to Gotham and returning to a DC Universe where superheroes, kingdoms, and magic collide! First up is Batman: Caped Crusader Season 2 on Prime Video. Hamish Linklater returns as Batman alongside Jamie Chung as Harley Quinn, as Gotham continues to reel from the fallout of Harvey Dent’s downfall. With the Riddler, Scarecrow, Mad Hatter, and a chilling new take on the Joker entering the fray, the second season expands the series’ noir-inspired vision of Gotham while pushing its characters into darker and more dangerous territory. We’re talking about the new villains, the surprising character reimaginings, and whether Caped Crusader continues to prove there’s plenty of life left in animated Batman. Then we turn to Dark Knights of Steel II #1, the return of DC’s epic medieval Elseworlds saga from writer Tom Taylor and artist Otto Schmidt, with colors by Arif Prianto and letters by Wes Abbott. An ancient and violent war is brewing beneath the waves, while a traitor hides in plain sight among the League’s own ranks. As the Houses of El and Wayne, the Kingdom of Storms, and the Amazons face a new threat, the fantasy world created by Taylor and Schmidt is heading toward its darkest days yet. We’re digging into the return of this fan-favorite alternate DC Universe and seeing whether the sequel can live up to the original.

    This week on Fantastic Forum, we’re swinging into a brand new chapter for Spider-Man and traveling back to the world of the Four Nations for an all-new Avatar adventure! First up is Spider-Man: Brand New Day, starring Tom Holland as Peter Parker alongside Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, Jon Bernthal, Mark Ruffalo, Sadie Sink, and Michael Mando. Four years after the events of Spider-Man: No Way Home, Peter has embraced life as a full-time Spider-Man in a world that has forgotten who he is. But a mysterious new threat and an unsettling evolution in Peter’s powers could change everything. Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton and written by Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers, we’re breaking down the latest chapter of the MCU’s Spider-Man saga and asking what this new day means for Peter Parker. Then we turn to Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender, the first feature film from Avatar Studios. Set years after the original animated series, the film follows Aang, voiced by Eric Nam, as he discovers an ancient power that could save his culture from extinction. With Katara, Sokka, Zuko, and Toph by his side, Aang embarks on a global quest to keep that power from falling into the wrong hands and threatening the fragile peace they fought so hard to achieve. Featuring the voices of Jessica Matten, Román Zaragoza, Steven Yeun, and Dionne Quan, this new adventure expands the world of Avatar: The Last Airbender while returning to the characters fans have loved for decades.

    Supergirl and Hellboy and the B.P.R.D.: The Monster of Tivola #1 | Fantastic Forum

    This week on Fantastic Forum, we are traveling from the stars of the DC Universe to the haunted hills of Italy with two exciting new releases. First up is Supergirl, the latest film from DC Studios starring Milly Alcock as Kara Zor-El alongside Matthias Schoenaerts, Eve Ridley, Jason Momoa, David Corenswet, Emily Beecham, and David Krumholtz. Inspired by Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, the film follows Kara as she embarks on a dangerous journey across the cosmos that challenges her understanding of justice, family, and what it truly means to be a hero. We are breaking down the performances, the visual spectacle, and whether this latest chapter continues the momentum of DC Studios' new cinematic universe. Then we turn to Hellboy and the B.P.R.D.: The Monster of Nivola, written by Mike Mignola and Christopher Golden, with painted art by Daniele Serra and lettering by Clem Robins. Set in 1963, Hellboy is dispatched to the mountain village of Nivola, Italy, where an ancient legend has become a terrifying reality. As villagers disappear and fear spreads through the countryside, Hellboy uncovers a monstrous force tied to the region's dark folklore. Serra's haunting painted artwork perfectly complements Mignola and Golden's atmospheric tale, delivering a gothic mystery that feels both timeless and unmistakably Hellboy.
