My Thoughts

I say DC really knocked the ball out of the park with these panels and reveals. I am looking forward to seeing what the DCEU has in store for us in the next few years.. Compared to physical conventions, this was a really great experience for fans to have the joy of attending a con while we’re all home at the moment due to the corona pandemic.

Part 2 of DC Fandome will take place on Saturday, September 12.
