In the DC pantheon there is no shadow that looms larger than that of Superman.

If you know anything about Wolverine, you know this: he’s the best at what he does, but what he does isn’t very nice. And if you know anything about Hugh Jackman, you know this: he’s (among the) best at what he does, and what he does is very crowdpleasing. So it’s great that he’s back

The Riddler is truly having a moment.
