DC’s Dark Crisis event is currently underway, with the death of the Justice League earlier this year serving as a catalyst for a lot of changes within the publisher’s multiverse.

Free Guy’s Thursday preview numbers are out and they might be a bit less than you’d expect. Variety reports that the film opened to about $2.2 million on Thursday.

When Matt Reeves’ highly-anticipated The Batman opens in theaters this week, it will offer audiences the latest exploration of one of comics’ most popular and iconic characters. The tone of the film, based on the teasers and trailers we’ve already seen, is one that aligns with most contemporary takes on Batman and Gotham, all while taking viewers into the early years of the Dark Knight’s crusade. The film is presenting a dark, gritty tale with terrifying villains, stunning violence, and a Bruce Wayne that seems to be so immersed in the mission of Batman that the man himself is little more than his own pain — the kind of “dark and gritty” Batman that fans of comics have come to love and expect....
