Here’s the full story, direct from DC:

Up in the sky, in the dark of the night, trust no one—for The Infected walk among us! Spinning out of the devastating events of DC’s THE BATMAN WHO LAUGHS, Superman and Batman join to­gether once more in an all-new monthly comic book—and they’re facing a terrifying new threat that could strike from anywhere. Writer Joshua Williamson (THE FLASH, JUSTICE LEAGUE/SUICIDE SQUAD) and artist David Marquez (Civil War II, Avengers) are teaming-up in BATMAN/SUPERMAN, debuting on August 14, 2019.
To launch the new DC series, the first arc of BATMAN/SUPERMAN will follow the two titular heroes as they hunt down six infected heroes in the DCU—people revealed to be infected by the Batman Who Laughs with a deadly pathogen that violently transforms them into the evilest versions of themselves. The Dark Knight and the Man of Steel must journey into the depths of Gotham City to learn which of their fellow heroes has been transformed into the horrifying horseman of their most dangerous and deranged foe ever.
Check out one of the covers and six more pages from the upcoming series! Batman/Superman:
BATMAN/SUPERMAN #1, written by Joshua Williamson and illustrated by David Marquez, will hit shelves August 14, 2019. BATMAN/SUPERMAN #1 cover art is by Marquez and Alejandro Sánchez.

Fantastic Universes Interview: Madison, Matthew and Macsen Lintz From 'The Walking Dead'

Interview panel led by Steve J. Ray, with a gathering of Comic/TV Media Journalists. I've spoken to some amazing people over the last couple of years; writers, artists, costume designers, and actors from some of my favorite TV shows. It's no secret that I'm a huge comic-book fan, and one of the TV series that's based on and inspired by a comics title - but has gone on to be so much more - is The Walking Dead . At a recent Comic-Con in London, I had the great opportunity of leading a panel where some fellow journalists and I spoke with Madison, Matthew and Macsen Lintz, three siblings who played Sophia and both iterations of Henry on the show.

She started acting at the age of six, filming commercials and voice-overs. Matthew (born 2001) took over the role of Henry from ...

David Bowie's 'Starman' and Optimism

Article by Eric Lee Over the past year I've really started thinking about David Bowie's hit single Starman ... like  a lot . The lyrics, the melody, and the way the electric guitar riff really climaxes at the perfect point all really emotionally resonate with me. It's a somewhat random piece of music to get emotionally moved by, particularly when you consider that I was born 20 years after the song first hit the radio. I wouldn't even call myself a music nerd, by any stretch of the imagination.  My first exposure to the song was in the Ridley Scott-directed movie The Martian . It's from a scene where we see an uplifting montage of Matt Damon's astronaut character being stranded on Mars and working hard to find a way to summon his crew to rescue him.  While the movie shows being stranded on a deserted planet by yourself as harrowing, it's not a horrific survivalist film.  Instead, the story focuses on the importance of unity and how, if the world finds a com...
