"Kiss Kiss Breach Breach/Present Tense" Trailers

Here are the trailers for next week's episodes of Arrow and The Flash.


HBO Max Developing Green Lantern & Strange Adventures Series

WarnerMedia announced today that they are developing two live-action DC Comics-based series for the upcoming streaming service, HBO Max. One is an anthonology series called Strange Adventures and the other will feature members of the Green Lantern Corps. Greg Berlanti and Sarah Schechter will executive produce both series, with John Stephens acting as showrunner for Strange Adventures. Berlanti commented,
Both of these original DC properties we’ll be creating for HBO Max will be unlike anything seen on television. An anthology series of cautionary tales set in a world where superpowers exist, and, in what promises to be our biggest DC show ever made, we will be going to space with a Green Lantern television series, but I can’t reveal any more about that just yet.
HBO Max will launch in May 2020.

PS. I almost missed the announcement that Elizabeth Banks is producing a half-hour comedy series called DC Super Hero High.
