Jensen Ackles may be best known for playing Dean Winchester on the long-running Supernatural TV series (now in its 14th season, wow) but in Batman: Under the Red Hood he was also Red Hood. It’s the former Robin Jason Todd who most people associate with the Red Hood. Yes, that same Jason Todd who was […]
Rule 63 Cosplays from the 2018 San Diego Comic Con
There are always plenty of great cosplayers at Comic Con, but some of the most fun are those highlighting Rule 63 (that for every pop culture character, there is another version of the opposite gender).

Superhero Week: Dance your way through this 360 degree Batcave tour
It took 40 animators to make this dance party happen. There’s that many Batman characters packed into the Batcave.

Superhero Week: Lost footage of Adam West’s Batman
A British newspaper found long-lost footage of Adam West dressed entirely as Batman in London. This visit wasn’t a standard superhero mission, though. This time the caped crusader was in the United Kingdom to help teach children about road safety. Really.
Batman Ninja coming to the cinema
This Warner Bros Batman production has Koichi Yamadera as Batman and Wataru Takagi as The Joker. It’ll be in the cinema next year. That’s to say it’ll be in cinemas in Japan next year. The rest of us may just have to hope for the best. If you’re curious Warner Japan have an official microsite […]
Superman all over the WB Justice League merch
Does this count as spoilers? I don’t know since the movie isn’t out yet… Call it speculation. I think a very likely ‘twist’ is that Superman features. Heck! The most recent trailer all but said as much. The latest merch update from WB Shop makes things pretty clear. Supes is all over the merch. In […]
Superhero Week: Superhero cospaint!
Cosplay is going strong… and cospaint is picking up interest. One of the things cospaint has going for it is that it makes for dramatic YouTube montages and long running Twitch streams. The queen of superhero cospaint is Kay Pike. We’ve featured her work on Geek Native before but since it’s Superhero Week let’s share […]
