    Why can't Superman get this kind of attention? :(
    He is the Man Of Steel but in this game he is more like the Man Of Weakstuff.

    Because he's not important apparently .... His 3 raids were the best things they did with him and that's that... First super hero , revolutionized the comic industry, the term super hero was cause of him... Dc (not just this game) dis respects him all the time.... He got a really good movie man of steel... Then first thing they have to do cause it was popular .... Put batman in it.... He couldn't have at least one sequel solo before adding batman? First time he goes against lex batman will be involved and. Predict batman saves the day... While kicking supermans butt in the first half .....

    Dcuo gave him a legends character but the character is not that great he could have more durability he is superman after all... He should be as strong or stronger then bane in legends.....

    He turned 75 last year... He got nothing! A dev did tell me they dropped the ball but still... I think it was Mir a long the lines of.... None of us are avid superman fans... Do meh oh look batman get the confetti and balloons ready!!!!!!!

    I am torn on the reveal that Future Bats will be in more content. On one half I feel his an awesome character and is by far my favorite interpretation of a future bruce wayne ever... but Superman needs some love. Maybe if they worked together in a DLC or something.

    the videos were very enjoyable tho

    Nah it hasn't happened yet. It's in the works though, He's suppose to be getting the "empowered channeling mod" treatment

    Seconded!

    And get Geoff Johns in there while you're at it.

    Heck, DC has their own weekly show called 'DC All Access' and they feature video games all the time. There's no good reason they can't do a segment about DCUO when there's a big update or a DLC about to be released.

    Is it just me or is anyone else angry that they just let Superman's birthday just slide by but they are pulling out all the stops and giving Batman not one, but multiple skins in Legends and all these vids about creation and his part in the game?

    SUPERMAN is the original superhero, without which I might add, there would be no Batman or anything else but I love how you guys overlooked him ENTIRELY because I guess he is just not cool enough or brooding enough. Seriously, is there any reason that the devs of this game would just overlook the character like this but then go overboard on Batman like this? Your bias is showing.

    Excellent videos. I expect to see some cool in-game celebration this week to go with them. I'm not one to give SOE a lot of credit, given my experience with the company over the years, but I'll give the devs of DCUO credit if they do this up right. These videos show some promise, so keep the momentum going. Batman is the flagship of DC, so give the character a worthy party.

    As I said in the other thread, this is a great series of videos and I'm especially pleased that Jim Lee is taking time out of his busy schedule to talk about DCUO instead of one of DC's newer games.

    Looking forward to more videos like this and very much looking forward to the return of Future Batman! :)

    What do you mean batman day is July 23rd?
    Also, wonderwoman's 75th anniversary is coming soon. I expect 3 wonder woman skins for legends, a whip/lasso for a weapon, 5 DLCs in her name, and Ares for legends. TY, nice doing business with you.

    It makes me very sad, I guess it's a safe assumption there won't be anything for Wonder Woman's 75 next year.
