Irony of ironies, I believe the new Superman and Lois show has introduced Lesla-Lar as a character(?) So having used Superman characters extensively in the Supergirl show, they are now using Supergirl characters in the Superman show..!!

Another poll supporting Carano https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxObG659Sc0 If you watch the Ben Shapiro interview with Gina Carano, it is hard not to feel sympathetic towards her. She has said and tweeted some truly stupid and intensive things, repeatedly so, but it becomes clear from that intervie...

You can decide for yourself whether this is too much. I can decide for myself that they appear to be lying, or at least, are interpreting the English language in a way far beyond the creative capabilities of an honest human being. Will they be censoring the internet or won't they? As it says on the...

Mr Potatohead - No real change to the individual Mr Potatohead toy. The overall toy line has been rebranded as Potatoheads. Nothing was cancelled. Yep, there's still going to be a Mr and Mrs variation of the toy , it is just that both versions will carry the single brand "Potato Head" on ...

Disappointed. Saw the title "Cartoon character cancelled" and assumed it was a thread about Piers Morgan.

As the saying goes, "science doesn't know everything, but everything we know , we know through science." I think early on in the pandemic when politicians chose to doubt the science, they weren't picking a fight with a group of people who had infallible knowledge of all the answers, but th...

I think a lot of us were pleasantly surprised at these BLM rallies where we had months of folks congregating in large numbers and we did not see a spike in numbers. I suppose the only thing one can take away from that is that being outdoors can significantly reduce the chances of COVID infection fr...

Jeepney TV on YouTube has just uploaded the series Kaptain Boom, which is the first installment of the Komiks Presents: Mars Ravelo series. The next installment is Varga (13 episodes), and the fourth installment is Dragonna (8 episodes), both costumed superheroines. Perhaps worth keeping an eye on ...

Nope, I would definitely remember Enchantress - although she is another one you could add to your list. I'm thinking of a different female magic-user but I just can't remember her name. She might have been queen of another dimension or something..... Morgana the Witch..? She was in a story called N...

I think there is also some kind of witch or sorceress that fights Supergirl in her Adventure Comics run? Can't remember the name of that character right now but I'm pretty sure she had a nice beautiful costume. June Moone aka the Enchantress..? That was in her Superman Family run, but June initiall...

I mean, how much 100% "Supergirl content" is there, anyway? By which I mean, how many characters and villains appeared ONLY in Supergirl comics and nowhere else. Not a hell of a lot. And they did use some of that anyway (such as the villainess Psi). Lesla-Lar - a Kandorian scientist who h...

The big issue here, surely, is not whether the new Supergirl will be blonde, or whether she'll wear pants, put how they treat the character in relation to Superman. The Benoist tv show did the character a massive disservice by putting very little clear blue water between Supergirl and her cousin - -...

I wonder if that production company will make superhero shows for Warner Brothers. Perhaps she thereby gets her own TV show that she produces and stars in? Hate to break this to you, but Melissa Benoist has only a passing interest in superheroes in real life. When she got the role she was asked rep...

Not yet, that I know of. A new Darna show is in the works for later this year or next, as you can see above.

I totally understand if some folks out there are nervous about taking the COVID vaccine, that these vaccines were rushed in production, bypassing many of the regulatory safeguards in order to get it out to the public, so I get the hesitation out there.

They do it all the time and the US meddles in foreign elections all the time. And what's illegal? Contributing money? Hillary got millions from the Saudis. Memes? Nothing illegal about that. Paying for ads? Promoting a candidate on RT? What was "illegal". And spare me the "go read th...

Why must a bullshit Christmas tree bill be linked to COVID relief? No one has yet to address that simple question. Sorry, I assumed it was obvious. They bickered so much that they ran out of time and needed something quick before year's end, so piggy backing on the existing Christmas tree bill was ...

As they do, China does, Israel does, France does, as Saudis does.... etc etc etc every single election cycle. Saudis gave millions to Hillary's campaign in 2016. No they didn't coz that would be massively illegal under US election law, and would spark a major diplomatic incident. Indeed I'm pretty ...

5 hours to read an over 5000 page bill. What is the rush? They do not want Congress or the American people to know what is actually in the bill because if they did there would not be support for the bill. How about this idea, pass a $600 COVID relief bill now, and then pass the bullshit Christmas-e...

Producers decided to go with a TV series first. Hmm, it's ABS-CBN though.

Darna, you mean? They're getting a new actress to portray her in a TV series next year. I hope they don't drop the ball on the costume, though, as I've been hearing that they want to change the costume into "something more practical", which usually doesn't bode well. Jane De Leon, and it ...

As Faucault points out, science as we use it in society, is not the rigor.

Those 'experts' don't determine what is true - - nothin...

Inadvertently, sure. China did indeed create and invent COVID-19 though, no question about it. This was quintessentially a human, man made disaster, not mother nature. A decidedly unnatural disaster for sure. The genome of Covid-19 was decoded pretty early on and it's RNA shows no signs of gene spl...

That map is extremely misleading. For example, in the US, the actual hot spots may only be in a few locations and not universally spread. That's actually the case for every country.
