Today we dive into huge updates from the MCU, DCU, Sony's Spider-Verse, and DC Studios—starting with AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY. Marvel Studios has officially kicked off marketing as Disney+ teases Doctor Doom's long-awaited return with the new FIRST STEPS image. What does this mean for the future of the MCU and Doom's role in the multiverse saga? Next, we jump into LANTERNS, where James Gunn may be bringing two of the most unpopular Green Lantern suits into the DCU.

What could this have meant for the future of the Spider-Man franchise? And finally, SUPERGIRL adds a key cast member as social media activity suggests the first trailer may be dropping any moment.
