Batman Day 2021

All most forgot today is Batman Day (September 18, 2021).  For a many years how they have been doing this to celebrate The Dark Knight.  If you have ever stopped by this blog you will know I am a huge Batman and DC fan.  There are lots of deals going on in online stores.  For me I am going to celebrate by watching Zack Snyder’s Justice League on Blu-ray.  Have been looking forward to seeing this version of the movie for many months now.

More Painting A 3D Model

Once again talking about painting 3D prints that I made with the Elegoo Neptune 2.  This time it is for a Batman model.  There is a really cool looking one over on Thingiverse, this one > here.  Very simple looking but with lot of detail in the cape.  Wanted to print this one besides looking cool.  It would be easy to paint.  Once I had it primed in grey.  Did two coats of black and a bit of white for the eyes.  After that spayed on some clear coat.  Think it turned out good.  But sadly Batman lost a battle with gravity and broke an ear.

Batman: The Long Halloween Part Two Trailer

It was back in late June (2021) that the DC Universe Animated Original movie,  Batman: The Long Halloween – Part One was out.  Do have a copy but haven’t gotten around to watching it yet.  That being said we don’t have to wait much longer for part two, Batman: The Long Halloween – Part Two.  You can see a trailer > here or below.  This will be on digital July 27 then on disc August 10, 2021.

Batman: Curse Of The White Knight

It has been well over a year since I talked about Batman: Curse of The White Knight.  This is a sequel to the very awesome and must read, Batman: White Knight.  It was last September (2020) that the hard cover version was out.  At that time was thinking the paperback version should be out soon after.  Well it wasn’t.  Then kind of forgot about.  Until I got an email form Amazon reminding me about it.  Turns out the trade paperback will be out September 7, 2021.  Will be adding this to my wish list.

Batman: The Long Halloween Part One Trailer

The next DC Universe Animated Original movie will be Batman: The Long Halloween – Part One.  This will be a two part movie.  Which make sense since it based off the same name famous graphic novel which has a very complex story.  Have read that is it’s really good.  From what I can remember they pretty much use every main villain. Then there is a big twist at the end.  They have use elements of this story in past movies and shows.  So it will be interesting to see how the adapted for this movie.  Part one will be out in the summer.  Then the second in the fall.  You can see a trailer > here or below.

Batman: Soul Of The Dragon

Forgot to share this a few week back.  But the next DC Universe Animated Original movie is called Batman: Soul of the Dragon.  This one will be much different than past movies.  Firstly because it set to take place in the 1970’s.  The other reason is, it’s a story that is not based of a comic book.  Am thinking if it is popular enough movie can see a comic book series being made.  From the trailer which you can see > here or below it does look interesting.  It will be out on digital platforms January 12, 2021 then on Blu-ray January 26.  As all ways will be getting a copy.

Batman: Death In The Family

There is a new DC animated movie out that I all most forgot about.  It is Batman: Death in the Family.  This is not part of the DC Universe Animated Original Movie line but yet a prequel to Batman: Under the Red Hood.  (Which is a must watch and one of my favourites).  This story is based off the comic book storyline A Death in the Family.  What made this one so famous was.  Back before it came out DC had a phone number you could call and vote to say if you want Jason Todd to live or die.  What makes this movie standout it will be interactive.   My guess you will get the same choose to let him live or die.  It sounds pretty cool.   You can see of clip from that movie > here or below.  It will be out on Disc October 13, 2020.  I will be picking up a copy.

Batman Day 2020

For bunch of years now.  In September DC Comics has a Batman Day.  This year it will be a bit different but it is still happening.  September 19, 2020 is the day.  You can read the official bog post > here.  Which out lines some of what will be going on around the world. A few years back managed to get a great deal on some digital trade paperbacks.  Many be I will get some great deals again this year.

Gotham Knights Trailer And Gameplay

For awhile now there as been talk about a new Batman Arkham game in the works.  Turns out there is and it’s called Gotham Knights.  It is being made by WB Games Montreal.  They are the people behind the Batman: Arkham Origins.  Which was a great.  The main games are made by Rocksteady.  Enjoyed all those games a lot so seeing there will be a new one I can’t wait to try it.  The trailer > here or below it looks like so much fun.  You will get to play as Nightwing, Batgirl, Robin or Red Hood.  A big take away from the trailer is the game will be single player or co-op.  There is all so gameplay video which you can see > here.  It’s early footage so there are some bugs but it looks great.  At the end they say it will be out in 2021.  However they don’t say which systems.  Over at Gamespot.com they say it will be on current, next gen and PC.  Guess I will have to save up some more money.

Batman Blind-Pack 2-Inch Mini-Figure

While walking around Walmart seen as new Batman themed blind bag like item.  Well it comes in a round plastic container, they call a mystery canister.  Do like these kind of things so bought two.  They are put out by Spin Master.  Each one is a 2” mini figure.  In which there are 20 to collect.  Some of those are just variants.  They cost about $5.00 each so took a change.  The first one is called Swamp Batman.  The second is a sliver looking Batman.  From the check list it is called Rare Batman.   They do look pretty good.  Much better than a DC blind bags I picked up years ago.
