Apologies to James Marsters.

Where there is Gotham, Metropolis must follow. DC's new streaming service has defied all odds to announce yet another Superman-free drama, as a new Metropolis series will pair Lois Lane and Lex Luthor as paranormal investigators before the Man of Steel swooped in.

We were admittedly surprised by the “leaked” trailers for Syfy Superman prequel Krypton, so much so that official pickup seemed like a no-brainer. Now, the David Goyer-produced series reveals its first official footage, cementing our earlier optimism.

Well, Supergirl had to brainwash Superman into not appearing in its first finale, so it makes sense Season 2 would modify the tradition. Our first trailer for next Monday’s “Nevertheless, She Persisted” finale teases Tyler Hoechlin’s Man of Steel taking up arms against his cousin, to say nothing of a final showdown with Rhea.

We’ll admit that the “leaked” trailers for Syfy Superman prequel Krypton had us surprisingly optimistic for the David Goyer-produced series. Now, Syfy has a chance to earn it, officially ordering Krypton to series amid an overall brand reboot.

If ever we thought FOX’s Gotham too prequel-y, the idea of Syfy’s Krypton exploring Superman’s grandpappy seemed lightyears beyond. Literally! That said, the first trailer for the Goyer-produced Syfy Super-prequel is here, and it really doesn’t look half-bad!

The on-screen battle of Batman vs. Superman will play out in theaters next year, but the behind-the-scenes battle may be playing out in the editing room as the two superheroes jockey for screen time in one of the biggest films of 2016. According to a new report, Warner Bros. executives have asked Zack Snyder for more Batman in the movie at the expense of the Man of Steel.

After yesterday’s three new Batman vs. Superman images from the pages of Empire magazine, today we have even more from the upcoming superhero film. From that same magazine article, we have both Ben Affleck and director Zack Snyder talking about this film’s version of Batman (which Affleck describes as a “f---ed up Batman”), plus a bunch of new photos from the film.

Following the Batman vs. Superman info dump that came out of Comic-Con, we thought it might be a while before we saw or heard anything from the upcoming superhero movie. After all, we did get an extended new trailer, new images and a new poster. But today, we have three new Batman vs. Superman pics each showing off one of the film’s three main characters: Batman, Superman and Lex Luthor.
