New Images of Batman: Under the Red Hood Movie Released

Warner Brothers has released four new pictures from the upcomming movie Batman: Under the Red Hood. 

The story follows Batman (Bruce Greenwood) and Dick Grayson (Neil Patrick Harris) who find themselves being stalked by a mysterious yet familiar figure known as the vigilante Red Hood (Jensen Ackles), who apparently knows all of their secrets.

As the Dark Knight tries to unravel the true identity of his stalker, he must also battle three of his enemies; the Joker (John DiMaggio), who first wore the Red Hood cowl and was responsible of the murder of Jason Todd (the second Robin), Ra's al Ghul (Jason Isaacs), the immortal international terrorist who is somehow connected to the Red Hood, and Black Mask (Wade Williams), the notorious kingpin who is launching a campaign to take over all of Gotham City's criminal underworld.

Will Tim Drake Eventually Become DC Comics Top Superhero?

Gfest is a HUGE fan of Tim Drake.  If you are as well, then prepare yourself for a geekgasm.  Eric Dietel at the DC Comics Fan Blog has written a beautiful recap of Tim's career, with some bold predictions for his future.  It begins here, and its well worth the read for both Tim Drake fans and fans of the DC Comics Universe overall:   

Tim Drake is a remarkable character. If he continues to grow and develop like he has since his introduction he will eventually become the most influential character in all of DC Comics. I am fully aware of the magnitude of that statement and I will try to support it.


Beginning

Tim Drake didn't show up in a typical superhero fashion. He suffered no early tragedy, he didn't possess any powers. He was simply a smart kid who loved Batman and Robin. In a lot of ways he's like many comic book readers out there. However he wasn't without special attributes, Tim Drake was then and is still today one of the smartest characters of all. As a young boy he did what no one else could do - uncover the identities of Batman and Robin, Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson respectively. He also purported the theory that Batman NEEDS a Robin to balance the darkness with light. A theory that goes a long way towards making the concept of Robin a lot less stupid than it might have originally been viewed.
