When last we heard of FOX's upcoming Batman-adjacent 'Gotham' TV series, we'd learned that the pilot would pick up with a young Jim Gordon investigating the murders of Thomas and Martha Wayne, explaining why we'd never actually see Batman within the series. That said, it seems Bruce Wayne may in fact have a much larger presence than we'd thought -- that of a series regular!

Wednesday night's all-new 'Arrow' installment, "The Scientist," kicked off the first of a two-part finale to bring the second season to its midway point and Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) into Oliver Queen's vigilante world. The arc will conclude with next week's "Three Ghosts," and the extended midseason trailer for the finale has hit with a heaping helping of spoilers!

We haven't heard much about FOX's Batman-avoidant 'Gotham' TV series since the announcement of its order the night Marvel premiered 'Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.,' but with development already underway, it seems a few key timeframe details have emerged to explain why the Caped Crusader won't show his cowl in FOX's 'Gotham.'

DC's live-action properties have long been faced with far fewer continuity ties than Marvel's cinematic universe, but 'Arrow' fans have remained optimistic that the CW-DC drama could in fact hold a place within the world of 'Man of Steel,' and 'Batman vs. Superman.' Muddy though things have been, producers finally have an answer about the CW's Green Arrow prospects on the big screen.

Earlier today we learned that 'Arrow''s impending 'Flash' spinoff would in fact emerge as a separate pilot, rather than feature the character's super-powered origin later on in the season, but that won't stop Grant Gustin from popping up as Central City police scientist Barry Allen on December 4! Get a first look at "The Scientist" with the pre-Flash inside!

'Arrow' fans well know that the second season has begun dabbling in more super-powered DC lore, introducing Grant Gustin's Barry Allen on December 4, as well as multiple interweaving plots teasing the emergence of super-strength, and the supernatural altogether. With that in mind, has the latest press release confirmed the appearance of undead DC-heavy Solomon Grundy?

Last night's all-new 'Arrow' installment, "State V. Queen," introduced some shocking twists and returned a few familiar faces along the way, but will the CW-DC drama keep the same momentum on December 4 when Grant Gustin's Barry Allen flashes into town? See the future scarlet speedster in the first trailer for 'Flash' spinoff setup "The Scientist" right now!

We were delighted enough to learn that 'Arrow' season 2 would tackle the DC lore of R'as al Ghul head on, but even moreso to learn that his "child" would play an integral role in the episodes to come! To that end, the CW-DC drama has added fellow 'Spartacus' star Katrina Law in the role of R'as al Ghul's daughter, but probably not the one you're thinking.

Wednesday became all about 'The Flash' as 'Arrow' announced that the scarlet speedster would feature in his own CW pilot, rather than suit up later in the season, just before the first images of Grant Gustin's Barry Allen broke, but what of this week's "State V. Queen"? Find out what brings Vertigo ('Fringe' vet Seth Gabel) back in play in a brand-new clip from this week's latest install

We were more than a bit skeptical when 'Arrow' season 2 announced that it would introduce DC superhero Barry Allen into its story, culminating in a 2014 episode to serve as a backdoor pilot for a potential CW 'Flash' spinoff, and now it seems producers have blinked as well. Grant Gustin's 'Flash' will still receive a pilot for a potential series, but not in 'Arrow' season 2 as originally planned.

'Arrow' season 2 still managed to hit the mark with last night's "Keep Your Enemies Closer," an episode that abdicated the main plot for a Diggle-centric turn in Russia, but will the CW superhero drama have the same true aim when Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) makes a speedy entrance into town in "The Scientist"? Find out what brings the Flash to Starling City with a few new spoile

Though the past week brought shocking and divisive news that 'Girls' star Adam Driver was potentially up for the role of Dick Grayson/Nightwing in 'Batman Vs. Superman,' we'd heard long before that Nightwing could potentially swoop into The CW's 'Arrow.' A 'Vampire Diaries' star has recently been suggesting himself in contention for the role, but is there any real truth to the rumor?

Just when you thought FOX's 'Gotham' and NBC's 'Constantine' had upped the DC quotient on TV significantly from The CW's 'Arrow' and potential 'Flash' spinoff, the Warner Bros.-owned network has picked up another costumed DC hero. Sources report that The CW had begun development of 'Hourman,' based on the DC comic character of the same name, but who's behind the latest superhero drama?

You may have heard that Marvel had a minor announcement concerning the future of their TV properties this morning, but following DC's earlier venture of a CW 'Hourman,' it seems The CW has yet another DC-related property to throw on the pile; this time with zombies! The network has ordered a pilot for 'iZombie' from 'Veronica Mars' creator Rob Thomas, but what is DC's latest venture all about? Rea

Last night's all-new 'Arrow' installment "Crucible" may have dialed back the DC references from the previous week's "Broken Dolls," but next week's "League of Assassins" has comic book goodness written all over it. Oliver and the Canary (Caity Loitz) will take in the titular League as led by Al-Owal ('Homeland''s Navid Negahban), and we've got the first photos to prov

It's been a tough road for DC animation on TV since its most successful incarnations with the Bruce Timm-Paul Dini era, and even the madcap 'Batman: The Brave and the Bold,' but it seems Cartoon Network may have suffered another casualty. Following similar moves to pull 'Young Justice' and 'Green Lantern: The Animated Series,' CG Dark Knight series 'Beware the Batman' has been unceremoniously pull
