I’m getting really excited for Batman Arkham City, now that they revealed that Robin is also a DLC. Too bad you have to get it through Best Buy. 

While supplies last, pre-order the game for an exclusive downloadable Robin character. Robin is a fully playable character in the new and improved challenge mode in Batman: Arkham City. The Tim Drake Robin pack is available exclusively to fans who pre-order the game from Best Buy on Xbox 360, PC and PS3. Robin comes complete with his own unique gadgets and special moves, and will be playable in all challenge maps in the game, as well as two additional challenge maps that are included with the pack: Black Mask Hideout and Freight Train Escape. The pack will also contain a bonus Red Robin character skin

Anne Hathaway is to play Catwoman in upcoming The Dark Knight Rises.

I approve.

Might I also throw out there that people were doubtful and on the fence about Heath Ledger playing the Joker… a role in which he won an oscar. 

Just sayin’

Also it could be worse… it could be Hallie Barry

Jim Lee… what can I say. I used to love his work. I have to hand it to him. He’s the only comic book artist who has stayed consistent in his style over all these years. The left image is from the WildC.A.T.S. promo circa 1992. The right is from Absolute Batman: Hush circa 2005.
