There are many reasons why Batman vs. Superman is one of the most anticipated upcoming Superhero movie battles. As two of the biggest and most popular comics franchise characters, it’s guaranteed to be filled with amazing fights and special effects. It is also set to be one of the first major Superhero movie battles since The Avengers. The rivalry between Batman and Superman goes back many years and this year will mark the 90th anniversary of Batman. It’s fair to say that Batman vs. Superman will be a Superhero movie to remember.
But aside from all that excitement, there are also a lot more reasons why this movie is significant. For example, it could mark the start of a new era of DC Comics. Or it could help define the modern Comic-Book character. Or it could even change the face of Superhero movies forever.
Let’s dive into the details…
The Characters And The Ties Within
The main characters of Batman vs. Superman are Batman, Superman, and Lex Luthor. But before we get into the details, let’s discuss the most significant character-related tie that links these three iconic characters together.
If you’ve been following the news over the past few months, you know that Warner Bros. has had a lot of success with their DC Films division. This has led to a lot of crossover appearances and team-ups between established DC Comics characters. One of the most significant examples of this was Batman Vs. Superman. While it’s been over a year since Batman Vs. Superman was first announced, it still comes as no surprise that these characters would go head to head. After all, they’re both iconic superheroes and each rivalry is filled with drama and intrigue.
The Setting
Warner Bros. had the opportunity to choose any country they wanted for the setting of Batman vs. Superman. But in true Warner Bros. fashion, they decided to go for the very best. The movie will take place in the United States, specifically in the city of Metropolis. In addition to being the home of Superman, the city of Metropolis is also the spot where Batman was first inspired to become a superhero. It is a city that holds a special significance for both Batman and Superman.
Warner Bros. has gone through great lengths to make sure that Batman vs. Superman is set in the real world. Even the costumes have been designed to look as realistic as possible. Of course, this is because the film is set in the real world. The setting is also significant because it will give the filmmakers the opportunity to explore the nature of heroism. Moreover, it’s an essential part of the film’s plot. Without the setting being Metropolis, the drama and intrigue between Batman and Lex Luthor might not make a lot of sense.
The Timing
Batman vs. Superman is one of the first Superhero movie battles since The Avengers. Naturally, with such a huge gap in between movies, the anticipation is through the roof. But the waiting will be worth it. This is because Batman vs. Superman is an important milestone for DC Comics. It will be the culmination of a decade of storylines between these two incredible characters. Moreover, it will offer the perfect climax to this year’s biggest comics event, Zero Hour where Batman and Superman have finally squared off against each other.
The Rivalry
Like most Superhero movie battles, Batman vs. Superman is filled with drama and intrigue between the two iconic characters. Of course, this is because they are two of the biggest and most popular superheroes in all of comic books. So it’s only natural that they would compete with each other. But the nature of their rivalry is a bit different than most.
Batman has been fighting criminals for almost a decade. And during this time, he has developed a brilliant mind for planning. As a result, his techniques and ways of doing things are completely different from those of Superman. But even though Batman is a mastermind, he has still never been very good at taking on another person one-on-one. This has led to the development of a number of gadgets and vehicles that allow him to cheat in fights.
Even more significantly, Batman has always been the true anti-hero of the DC Comics universe. He may fight for justice, but he also has a dark side.
While Superman has been fighting for truth, justice, and the American way, Batman has been fighting for his own twisted reasons. He has been an inspiration for many, but he also wants everybody to fear him. In this way, he is the total opposite of Superman.
This rivalry has been an important aspect of the DC Comics universe for many years and it’s great to see it come to life on the big screen. But what’s more impressive is that these two characters could still clash even today. The nature of their rivalry hasn’t changed. It’s still filled with all the excitement and anticipation of two characters who owe their fame to a world of difference sets of values.
The Teams
The way the DC Comics Universe works is through a number of teams, otherwise known as sidekicks. These are groups of heroes that exist outside of the standard ‘greatest hero ever’ paradigm. The most iconic example of a sidekick is Green Lantern, who does not have his own ring but instead operates under the guidance of his mentor, who is in turn guided by the power of the Green Lantern ring. Likewise, Batman has the assistance of his trusted allies. And like in real life, the teams act as a support structure for their leader. They are a valuable source of insight and aid in combat.
But while the sidekicks exist in their own right, they are never truly independent characters. They are always extensions of their masters or mentors and never get the credit or the appreciation that is due to the true solo heroes.
DC Vs. Marvel
With a new generation coming up, it’s important to remember that not all popular culture is created equal. There are those who find the characters and stories of DC Comics to be inferior to those of Marvel. But the truth is that they are both incredibly significant parts of pop culture and they deserve to be honored as such.
DC Comics has always been the home of alternative heroes. They have been the home of Batman since 1939 and their reputation for innovative and creative storytelling is unrivalled.
Even though they were founded much earlier, DC Comics is often considered the ‘grandfather’ of superhero comics. Many modern superheroes and supervillains owe their origins to the creative minds at DC Comics.
It’s important to remember that Marvel comics also played a huge role in shaping modern culture. In addition to creating some of the most iconic superheroes in history, the Marvel Comics team have also been responsible for some of the most memorable stories ever told. The creative team at Marvel have always been at the forefront of innovation and have been responsible for some of the most significant technological advancements in human history.
So whether you’re a long-time fan of DC Comics or have been following them relatively recently, you must admit that both companies have a lot to offer. And even those who don’t care about comics will find that there is a lot to admire about these companies and their characters. That’s what makes these two iconic rivals so significant.
