The Hero We Deserve: 10 Actresses Who Could Play Batwoman in the Arrowverse
Just a couple of days ago the star of Arrow himself, Stephen Amell, confirmed in an interview that Batwoman will be introduced in the next Arrowverse crossover, and fans couldn't be more excited. Batwoman is one of the most popular characters in comics and one of the most underrepresented characters in other media, meaning that her live-action debut is one of most exciting additions to the Arrowverse in recent memory. While she's likely to only be a one-time guest star, there are still a handful of big actresses who would want to don the cowl in such an anticipated arrival, and I think I have a few likely candidates for the role.

Superman at 80 and Why I Defend the Man of Steel
April 18th, 2018: Superman turned 80 years old, and also on this day, the 1,000th issue of Action Comics was released.In 1938, Superman made his comic book debut as the first real superhero. The Man of Steel and his alias, Clark Kent, has inspired millions of people and generations all over the world. Superman is a proud advocate of talking about fighting for truth, justice, and the American way. He may be a fictional character, but he continues to be adored by countless fans everywhere. On his birthday, I have shared and reposted numerous pictures of people showing love to their favorite character. Most of those pictures were of cosplayers dressing up in full costume. I also posted some photos of myself cosplaying as Clark Kent and as Superman.

10 Amazing Non-DC or Marvel Superhero Movies
While DC and Marvel are currently the kings of the superhero genre, they aren't the only ones to take a crack at the crime-fighting heroes we know and love from their various comic iterations. None of these did as well at the box office as something like Guardians of the Galaxy or Wonder Woman, possibly the highest grossing origin film of all time, but they all have their place in our hearts, and some of them have even become cult classics. A lot of these films are going to be from the 90s and early 2000s era, since that's a bit before Marvel and DC really started to overtake the genre. That makes them all the more charming, and if you haven't seen any of these non-DC or Marvel superhero movies yet, grab your popcorn and give yourself a night.

Why 'Flashpoint' is Bad for the DCEU
Do you remember all those memes that show two nearly identical characters and say something to the effect of copying someone else's work? Yeah, here's the thing; Flashpoint has already been done. The CW series The Flash had Barry Allen kick off a version of Flashpoint and touched on the little ways that it screwed everything up. However, DC animated has also already done it, lifting straight from the source material, giving us now two perfectly serviceable versions of the story; one with big sweeping arcs and the other with continuity altering details.

Superhero or Supervillain?
I grew up reading comic books and watching Batman, Superman and the Green Hornet on TV. I even enjoyed Spiderman and the Incredible Hulk in movies, TV and in print. If I could go through a metamorphosis and change into someone else, who would I want to be? I know that I'd be the greatest superhero or super villain of all time, but exactly what would I be? Before I can answer that question, let us look at the qualities and characteristics I’d want in that super-powered individual.
