Summary

Warner Bros. is fighting to dismiss a major lawsuit over Superman’s foreign copyrights, and we’re breaking down all the details! Mark Peary, the nephew of Superman co-creator Joe Shuster, has filed a legal challenge that could impact the release of James Gunn’s Superman in July. The studio argues that Peary’s claims have already been settled in U.S. courts and that copyright assignments in foreign territories should remain intact. Could this case cause trouble for DC Studios, or is it just another chapter in Superman’s long legal history? We’re diving deep into the legal battle, what it means for the character’s legacy, and the larger implications for Warner Bros. Discovery.

Plus, we’ll cover:
🔥 Daredevil: Born Again—Breaking down the first two episodes!
🔥 What that Punisher logo means for the story
🔥 Lanterns series update—will the Sinestro Corps appear?
🔥 Invincible Season 3—what’s next for Mark Grayson?
🔥 Could the SnyderVerse be revived under DC Studios' Multiverse?
🔥 Captain America: Brave New World—can it hit $400M worldwide?

With Daredevil: Born Again finally premiering, we’ll also discuss Matt Murdock’s return, Wilson Fisk’s political rise, and how this show compares to the original Netflix series. How does it fit into the MCU’s street-level heroes? And how are fans reacting to the first episodes?
