The post is a little later as usual, but I had a rather unusual thing to do yesterday, so I didn’t have enough time to write the review on Monday evening as usual.

Batwoman got RENEWED for season 3!!!!

I’m am verrrrry HAPPY right now! Fantastic news!

It is so great that any doubt of a season 3 is gone so early on!

The CW renewed 12 of their shows very early on, love how they handle their shows, in contrast to “cancel-Netflix”

Now I will have my special Batwoman shot….or two….. 😉

I also used my new browser extension to correct quite many (grammar/spelling) mistakes I made in the 20 reviews of season 1.

Should have got such a useful tool way earlier!

Fan made Batwoman promo posters by riyadgraphisme

[2nd post for today]

Also on this special, I wanna present two unoffical Batwoman promo posters for season 2:

(click to enlarge)

Both very cool posters in my opinion!

The right one: Good idea to have Ryan Wilder AND Batwoman on it even they are the same person.

The poster shows all the character that should play a bigger role in season 2, at least from today’s point of view.

Don’t know how big Julia’s role will be, but perhaps she should be on it as well as she was promoted to a regular cast member.

Tough choice but I slightly prefer the left one I guess.

Here is the Instagram channel of the artist, feel welcome to check his other work there and to follow him on Instagram:

Season 2 of Batwoman starts at 8PM on the CW today!

Batwoman: Beyond ….Comics special on a SPECIAL day! [Masks off #41]

[1st post for today]

To celebrate this SPECIAL day….the day where the Batwoman TV shows starts into its second season (8PM at the CW)…I have a “Batwoman Beyond comics special” for you!

It’s the “Batwoman BEYOND” version from the “Batman Beyond” run.

In that run a version of Batwoman appeared in issues 37 to 42.

For some reason I forgot to post about these comics back then, time to finally do that now!

In this gallery you find the highlights from my perspective with some peril moments and all the (un)masking action!

These pages are from issues 38 to 42. You will find more of course in the comics as I couldn’t put them all in a gallery 😉

You should check out all these comics!

[Read the pages before you go on!]

I really like that she actually had a secret identity in these comics for a while as not even the reader knew who was under that mask.

The advantage of such a full face mask is ….obviously….that the whole face is covered, so it provides a perfect disguise.

I do love such a mystery! It also provides some opportunities to show scenes where the mask gets damaged or ripped.

Sadly they don’t much use of that here. I mean if someone delivers hard punches to her face or threws her around the mask should get damaged at some point. But well, I don’t know what high-tech material they use in these Batman Beyond masks. So, her costume does only really damaged once through that explosion.

My favorite is the scene where a hand of the villain gets really close to her face as she is lying on the ground. But sadly, it seems like he didn’t want to unmask her as he immediately starts to choke her instead of yanking her mask off. That moron 😉

The self unmaskings are well done even I would have prefered that someone else had unmasked her at one point or at least try to do that.

But in the end these comics with this Batwoman Beyond version are my favorites from the last 5 years!

What do you think of these pages/comics?

Batwoman news: Interviews + a new big villain

Season 2 of Batwoman is only DAYS away as it starts THIS SUNDAY, January 17 at the CW at 8pm.

After no fresh episodes since May I’m more than hyped! 🙂

A lot of articles and news surfaced the last days and on this post I wanna collect all the new info prior to episode 1.

Safiyah is one of the big villains in season 2, we know that for quite a while now. She was already mentioned a few times in season 1 and has some connections to Alice and Kate(?).

Shivaani Ghai was casted for that role.

Now we get some first look images + an interesting text on EW:

Meet Batwoman season 2 big bad Safiyah in new first look

Now we got news that infamous villain Black Mask also joins the villains of season 2 on the show!

No info on the actor who will play him are out yet….but damn, that’s great news! I always liked his role in the comics and his appearance was one of the plus points of the Birds of Prey movie.

More on that on the EW as well:

Batwoman boss confirms Black Mask is season 2’s other big bad

Some interestings interviews with Javicia Leslie the new Batwoman:

An AWESOME Batwoman promo poster! + The snyopsis of episode 1 of season 2

One last post for 2020.

Yesterday I felt like a child on christmas as a late christmas gift appeared on the CW social media accounts. 🙂

It was THIS season 2 promo poster:

(click to enlarge)


Oh…..my …..GOD!!!!

Love how her cowl is presented by her, while her face stays in the shadows 🙂

My mouth was wide open as I found the twitter post with this one.

As soon as I find a real big version of this one I will order a poster with this asap.

*EDIT*

Here is the synopsis for episode 1 of season 2:

Spoiler title
GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN – Kate’s friends and family hold on to hope that Kate may still be found, a homeless 25-year-old named Ryan Wilder (Javicia Leslie) stumbles upon Kate’s Batsuit.  Focused on no longer being a victim, Ryan takes the suit to use as armor and goes rogue in the streets of Gotham, taking out various members of a new gang called the False Face Society.  Meanwhile, both Jacob Kane (Dougray Scott) and Luke Fox (Camrus Johnson) launch searches for Kate, Mary Hamilton (Nicole Kang) grapples with losing yet another family member, Sophie Moore (Meagan Tandy) struggles with things left unsaid to her first love, and Alice (Rachel Skarsten) is furious that someone got to Kate before she could exact her revenge.  At the same time, “Bruce Wayne” (guest star Warren Christie) returns under the pretense of searching for Kate, but the truth is he wants his suit back and it becomes the clash of imposters as “Batwoman” and “Bruce” square off in the action-packed season premiere. Holly Dale directed the episode written by Caroline Dries (#201).  Original airdate 1/17/2021.  Every episode of BATWOMAN will be available to stream on The CW App and CWTV.com the day after broadcast for free and without a subscription, log-in or authentication required. 

Just 17 more days to the start of season 2!

Batwoman: New promo poster and a detailed synopsis for season 2!

Right in time for Christmas interesting new material have just surfaced!

Here is the new promo poster:

(click to enlarge)

Really like that one!

As soon I got a really big sized version, I will order a poster and hang it up next to the season 1 poster I had ordered last year.

But that’s not it…here is the detailed synopsis for season 2:

In season two of BATWOMAN, when Ryan Wilder (Javicia Leslie) first discovers Kate Kane’s Batsuit, she has no idea how drastically her life is about to change. A sassy, smart lesbian with a difficult past, Ryan sees the suit as her chance to finally be powerful and no longer a victim as she survives in the tough streets of the city.

While Ryan goes rogue in the shadows, Gotham grapples with their missing hero, believing Batwoman has fled the city after a public stand-off with Commander Jacob Kane (Dougray Scott) and the Crows. But Kate Kane’s disappearance hits hardest at home where Jacob, Sophie (Meagan Tandy), Luke (Camrus Johnson), Mary (Nicole Kang) and even Alice (Rachel Skarsten) each struggle with the devastating news in their own way. Meanwhile, the False Face Society tightens its grip on Gotham, distributing a perilous new drug known as Snakebite, “Bruce Wayne” (Warren Christie) finds his way home to wreak havoc, Safiyah (Shivaani Ghai) surfaces with plans for revenge, and a new set of villains descends on the city.

It’s not long before Ryan realizes how much the symbol on the suit means to Gotham, launching her on a personal journey that takes her from fledgling substitute to confident caped crusader, from living in her van with her plant to chasing villains in the Batmobile. Ryan Wilder becomes a very different Batwoman than Kate Kane – her own Batwoman – but with the same understanding of what it means to be a hero.

Starring Javicia Leslie, Dougray Scott, Rachel Skarsten, Meagan Tandy, Nicole Kang, and Camrus Johnson.

Interesting new details in this juicier synospsis!

Kate missing, Alice still on the loose, False Face Society, false Bruce Wayne and Safiyah appearing in Gotham.

Sounds like quite a LOT happening in good old Gotham… 😉

Bring it on, I’m very excited for the new season!

7 months have past until the end of season 1, finally in 4 weeks the waiting comes to an end!

Batwoman: Promo pictures for episode 1 of season 2

The Batwoman Promo machine is coming to speed after we finally got the trailer last week!

Now Entertainment Weekly published 9 pictures today.

Here you can see all 9 of them in one place:

Quite a lot of question can be asked about these pictures:

Will be very interesting to see how Elliot disguised as Bruce Wayne will act in the early episodes.

What is his goal? How will they find out that it isn’t Bruce Wayne after all?

What does he have in picture number 4 in his hands. I guess a weapon….but what kind?

And Kate Kane disappears and Ryan Wilder surfaces…..will be interesting to see how all of the characters will handle that.

Where does the new car is coming from? The red colored section and the bat symbol aren’t on it at that point.

Who is poiting that gun at Alice? And why?

Oh, the first episode will have to answer a LOT of questions!

Season start on January 17, just one month to go!

Batwoman: Season 2 TRAILER!

Finally!

A trailer!

A real trailer!

A REAL TRAILER!!!!!

Excited as hell right now!

Love the creepy start in the trailer with Alice doing what she can do best 😉

Wonder what her beef with Julia here is?

Ryan will have a rough start she will need to persuade Mary and Luke that she can be the new heroine the city need.

Sophie and Jacob should now finally realise that Batwoman was Kate the whole time….

38 days to go! 🙂

Batwoman: A new teaser + a behind the scenes snippet

A new video surfaced that adds some new scenes (the first 6 seconds) to the two already published teasers.

If you will a sort of teaser compilation 😉


Some speculate that the thug at the very beginning might be Scarecrow….

 

Earlier this week a behind the scenes videos for Batwoman was shown.

It wasn’t published on the internet yet, but this seems to be a part of it:
Some more images:
Also the season trailer should come this week…. hopefully.
Is it January 17 already? No? DAMN!
