Shazam: Fury of the Gods

Now, it’s two years later (as we find out in one of the post-credit scenes), and Billy and company are trying to live up the heroic mantle that’s been thrust on them. It’s not going great.

Gotham Knights: Pilot

I liked this a lot more than I thought I would. I have a lot of questions about characters either referred to in passing or not named at all, but I hope we’ll get there.
