Green Lantern Infographic

You've probably already seen the Ryan Reynolds-starred "Green Lantern" movie and wondered, "what the hell is Green Lantern about again?" Well let's face it, one of the reasons why that movie didn't go so well is because of the information overload the movie relayed to the audience. Even fans like me thought it was hard to keep up with all the character developments in the movie.

Luckily, I stumbled upon a Green Lantern infographic while browsing Newsarama and decided to share it. It's a good way to familiarize yourself with the Green Lantern universe, if you're still interested. The Green Lantern universe is fascinating and thrilling. However, it's very big and convoluted for new readers to easily understand the concept of the whole character. This infographic explains the background, history and other important things to introduce you into Green Lantern.

DC Comics Superhero Collection #83: GL Kyle Rayner

Finally after 82 issues, they released Kyle Rayner's lead figure. Although I would much prefer for Eaglemoss to have sculpted him in his classic black costume. But anyway here he is.

Batman: Arkham City Gameplay with Catwoman

To give us a little taste on how Catwoman would be like in "Batman: Arkham City", the guys at Warner Bros. Entertainment have released over 10 minutes of gameplay featuring Catwoman in the start.

The video displays Catwoman's moves and tricks using the dynamic attack system of the game. Also, it features Batman showing some new moves (e.g. catching a chair thrown at him and throwing it back) coupled with the familiar fighting system that we all loved back in "Arkham Asylum".

"Batman: Arkham City" is the sequel to the highly acclaimed superhero game, "Batman: Arkham Asylum". With fans calling it the best Batman/superhero game ever made, this highly anticipated sequel is set in a new place called Arkham City. It is five times larger than the previous Arkham Asylum and lets the player roam around freely. Arkham City is the new "security home" for criminals, where they can roam around freely in the streets, build gangs, etc. as long as they within the secured grounds. The sequel introduces a brand new story with returning characters like the Joker, and also some new ones like Two-Face (who you will see in the video below.)
