In 2000, writer Brian Michael Bendis (Ultimate Spider-Man) and artist Michael Avon Oeming (B.P.R.D.: The Soul of Venice & Other Stories) combined the police procedural tenets of Law & Order with superhero archetypes for their comic book series Powers. Well, now — after fourteen collected editions and two spin-off collections — things are coming full circle with Powers Season 1 (Blu-ray, DVD), which collects the first season of the superheroic police procedural TV show that originally aired on the PlayStation Network (via PS3, PS3, and Vita). It’s just too bad the show is a pale imitation of the original comic.

In Avengers Age Of Ultron, our old pals reunite to save the world…again. But having already collectively saved it from alien invaders — and individually from Nazi cultists, medically-enhanced people, Hydra, and space elves — Iron Man, The Hulk, Thor, Captain America, Black Widow, and Hawkeye must known save the world…from themselves.
Well, some of their selves, anyway.
Ever since DC kicked off their animated movie series with 2007’s Superman: Doomsday, some fans have wished these films were more R-rated than PG-13, especially when Batman’s involved. But while that’s still not the case with Batman Vs Robin — which is available from Warner Home Video as a Blu-ray/DVD combo pack, a limited edition Blu-ray/DVD combo pack that includes a 4.5-inch tall statue of the Caped Crusader, and DVD — this does join last year’s Batman: Assault On Arkham and 2008’s Batman: Gotham Knight in being one of the darker of the Dark Knight’s animated adventures.
