Well, last night may have rung in the new year but it seems that DC Films co-head and President/CCO of DC Entertainment, Geoff Johns had plans to make 2017 an even more exciting prospect.
Johns announced on Twitter last night (below) his five most anticipated DC-related things in 2017 and in there was Wonder Woman (we’re all excited, sir), Injustice (the game’s return in big news here at FTN towers) and Mera being on the big screen for the first time (Aquaman must have his Queen)… but he also announced two pretty cool pieces of, em, new news.
Firstly he announced his return to writing comics and in there he teased an image of Watchmen’s Doctor Manhattan – we all know the Watchmen will tie into the current run of DC Rebirth – and the story started off with Johns’ writing, so this makes sense that he may be bringing this chapter to a close.
However, on top of all that, he announced another DC TV series coming this year!
Now we know that DC’s TV output is massive at the minute – Arrow, Legends, Flash, Supergirl, Lucifer, Preacher, I, Zombie and Gotham – and we know that we also have Powerless and Black Lightning coming this year, but what could the new show possibly be? And, more importantly, will it be based in The CW universe or one of the other existing show universes?
We want to hear your thoughts and forecasts, folks… and are you excited for a new Johns’ book? Let us know…
