It appears we may see Slade Wilson (Deathstroke) a bit sooner than we think, according to popular fan speculation. https://twitter.com/ZackSnyder/status/781557550189842432 Reddit users have deciphered the recent picture Zack Snyder tweeted of the Justice League movie storyboard, which appears to have a character drawn very similar to the mercenary.

Critics and fans alike, it was guaranteed a continuation, and with a third season obviously lined up based on an announcement in mid-July,…

The world of Hellboy was an immersive one, with an astounding imagery and visual made practical by the Guillermo del Toro himself, adapted by Mike Mignola’s comic series of the same name. It’s a rarity to see a film make the most of it with such practical effects and the gorgeous designs. With only two films, being Hellboy (2004) and Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008), it was certainly enough for a great appeal and fanbase, but sadly not enough to make the most of a continuation. With the second film’s downfall, it would have to be the tight competition…
