Blue Beetle

By | Aug 21, 2023 | Movies, Reviews

As we enter the strange grey area between the cinematic Flashpoint-inspired Flash movie and James Gunn’s reshaping of the DC cinematic universe, it can be hard to feel excited about another superhero movie without knowing how it actually fits or if it’s going to be retconned away.
