This Classic Character Is Officially Back Under Marvel's Control
Marvel has a vast collection of characters in their library to pull from for their Cinematic Universe, yet there have been and likely will continue to be holdouts. Fantastic Four and The X-Men are still controlled by 20th Century Fox, and Namorthe Sub-Mariner is drowning in a sea of complications with Universal.

The Dark Side Of The Comics: 'Secret Empire' Writer Compares Evil Captain America To 'Star Wars'
Controversy is currently rife on the pages of #Marvel comic books as we "hail" a new era for Steve Rogers. The #superhero powerhouse is currently rocked by the rather controversial #SecretEmpire storyline and the frankly perplexing reveal that not only is #CaptainAmerica an agent of the nefarious Hydra, he has also always been this way. It is safe to say that the plot hasn't only divided fans of the Sentinel of Liberty, but has left most falling on the side of "WTF is this?"

Who's That Bat: Joss Whedon Looking For Unknown Actress To Play Batgirl In The DCEU
There are some parts that sound just too good to be true to Hollywood actors, while the ever expanding #superhero genre offers some of the most lucrative roles out there. If Josh Brolin actually leaves any parts in supes films available, they can be a one-way ticket to stardom, sequels, and one hell of a paycheck. While the likes of Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, and Ben Affleck bring their macho personas to our screens, the likes of Gal Gadot, Scarlett Johansson, and Cate Blanchett are slowly showing that it isn't just a man's world.

Pining for Our Hero: Patty Jenkins Reveals Whether Chris Pine Could Return for 'Wonder Woman' Sequel

So there we have it, arguably cinema's premiere female-first #superhero film is off to a flying start. As Wonder Woman uses her iconic shield to suckerpunch the competition and the critics out of the box office, we are left to marvel in what you could call the best DCEU film ever (well, there wasn't really much to go against).

Wonder War-Man: Patty Jenkins Reveals Which 'Wonder Woman' Scene Needed Reshooting
The #DCEU is certainly doing its best to cast off its shadowy past, and #WonderWoman is certainly a gung-ho affair that is blasting away its naysayers in cinemas. Like Mel Gibson's Hacksaw Ridge or Christopher Nolan's upcoming Dunkirk, Wonder Woman turned into its very own epic war film right in front of our eyes. The script and characters brilliant wove the tragedy of WWI into the tapestry of a #superhero film without relying on tired wartime tropes or Saving Private Ryan clichés.

You Sny Dog: Zack Snyder Shows Off His 'Wonder Woman' Cameo
As Wonder Woman uses her Lasso of Truth to snare a slew of positive reviews and a strong grip over the box office, it looks like the DCEU can let out a welcome sigh of relief (for now). Director Patty Jenkins has brought us a faithful adaptation of the DC heroine for her first ever solo film, but alongside stellar performances from the likes of Gal Gadot, Chris Pine and Robin Wright, did anyone spot #superhero extraordinaire Zack Snyder hiding in plain sight?
