HE LIVES FOR S.H.I.E.L.D

Willie Nelson coming through in the clutch with the intro. Thoughts on how the adaptation will hold up to the comics though?

Captain Britain, the UK's answer to Captain America, might be getting his own series.

What that actually means is completely up for speculation but a few details have been released such as the above spec suit and the names of the show's producers.

CBS confirmed the crossover in a press release with this information:

The Flash is speeding to National City! THE FLASH star Grant Gustin, in his role of Barry Allen/The Flash, will cross over to SUPERGIRL in an episode to be broadcast Monday, March 28 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Details of the episode will be announced at a later date.

DC Comics' Supergirl is coming to TV this November. Following the adventures of Kryptonian refugee, Kara Zor-El (Superman's cousin), Supergirl looks like a lot of TV shows combined into one. We have a Devil Wears Prada-esque tough female boss in Calista Flockhart's Cat Grant, and a secret government agency dealing with extraterrestrial threats! How much awesome cliches can one show have?

Supergirl better be strong if she's going to carry that many plotlines.

Vertigo Comics' Lucifer, was just picked up for a full season by Fox. Introduced in Neil Gaiman's Sandman, Lucifer quits hell and takes up residence in Los Angeles, where he helps the LAPD find criminals that need punishing.

The CW's newest expansion to The Flash/Arrow universe is getting two new cast members. Joining Brandon Routh's Atom and Caity Lotz as a resurrected Black Canary (maybe!?), are Hawkgirl and Rip Hunter.

Hunter, who will simply be known as 'The Traveler', is a time traveling adventurer on a secret mission. Played by Timey-Wimey Doctor Who veteran, Arthur Darvill. Hunter is described as

a Han Solo-esque rogue who gets by with his charm... His razor-sharp wit hides the pain of a man who has lived through serious conflict. He also harbors many secrets, always leaving both his teammates and the audience unsure of his true allegiances.
