The 2019 slate of animated DC Universe movies were announced by DC with the first movie being The Death of Superman, which world premieres this week. The second part with the previously announced two-part adaptation, Reign of the Supermen. In the spring 2019, Justice League vs. The Fatal Five, followed by Batman: Hush is being released as the third movie in the summer 2019. As an additional release, there will be a fourth movie consisting of Wonder Woman taking center stage in an original animated movie called Wonder Woman: Bloodlines. Batman: Hush was debuted by Jeph Loeb and Jim Lee for a 12-part Batman storyline in the pages of BATMAN #608. The story’s title was “Hush,” and the simple name belied a surprisingly complex story that would feature much of the Dark Knight’s popular rogues’ gallery, hint at the eventual return of the once dead Jason Todd, introduce Bruce Wayne’s childhood friend Tommy Elliot and bring the romantic undertones of Batman’s relationship with Catwoman to the forefront for the first time. Hush will find the series returning to the present day and set in a much more familiar Gotham City. The comic storyline featured popular Bat baddies like Poison Ivy, Ra’s al Ghul and the Joker, but it’s also well known for introducing the villain it’s named after—the bandage-faced Hush. The Death of Superman and Reign of the Supermen focus on what happens after Superman’s death and introduces such as Steel, Cyborg Superman and Conner Kent. Justice League vs. The Fatal Five will be an original story composed of supercriminals Tharok, Emerald Empress, Validus, Mano and the Persuader introduced in 1967 and are more commonly associated with the Legion of Super-Heroes.
