Hey Youtubers happy 2017.
There's so much exciting stuff happening, but Geoff John's just went on this tear announcing
all kinds of stuff like he's writing comics to get in there just happens to be a new DC
TV show they can announce soon.
So let's talk about what that is starting 2017 off right there's a new round of the
flash ring giveaway.

Happy 2017, everybody, it's gonna be so awesome.
I'll be doing like a superposed with a bunch of other stuff is going to be coming, but
what is this new DC TV show the way Geoff John's is talking about it, it sounds like
it's definitely live-action is only one show that I know about the could drop this year.
If you talking about a show this this year.
Now I said they're going to be announcing something soon so that could be something
that is coming at 2018, but he just makes it sound like this is something that will
be able to watch during 2017, so that would be black lightning just coming from Greg Berlanti
who is like the master of the CW arrow verse.
He was a character on the young justice TV show.
I know we have young justice season three coming up, but I don't think that's what Geoff
John's is getting ready to announce, but they did use him in a Justice league type way on
that TV show tells her he will try to but if that's the case, even though black lightning
is been part of the Justice league of the kind of crating TV Justice league in the arrow
verse technically that's a flock show so would be kind of like Gotham where it's not really
connected to the other DC shows even though it's kind of connected is a bit weird when
you're talking about shows on other networks because people always want them to crossover,
but because as different studios like it was enough trouble to get Supergirl to cross over
with flash.
When it was still at CBS and CVS had an ownership interest in the CW, so there was even like
a little bit of connection between them.
That doesn't really exist with Fox, but because Fox has a bunch of DC shows in its own stable
now those can crossover is much as they want to, so we can talk more about crossover stuff
when they confirm which Syria is the just a number of other series that they could be
working on there's rumors of teen Titans birds of prey revival.
Although they have a lot of movie stuff happening with teen Titans characters in the DC extended
universe, so I'm not really expecting a Titans show.
At least for a couple more years is totally possible that they could do that whenever
arrow goes off the air, but I think that has a couple seasons left in it.
I mean it is my great wish that they would do a Titans show with characters from the
arrow verse but they also have legends of tomorrow like they know that Katie Cassidy
is going to be doing some really weird stuff with the black canary black siren character
in the next couple of years in the arrow verse.
So for the time being legends of tomorrow is sort of like their catchall show where
they cycle cast in and out.
I'm really hoping they get to that point with another Titans type show that they could do
like a female spinoff like birds of prey because they're just so many female characters that
they have in them like the last big birds of prey TV show wasn't exactly a critical
darling and typically when they're looking for new shows to do and look for either characters
that have never been done before for like something that's completely new or they look
to do a better version of characters that may have been done a disservice in the past.
So birds of prey would be like a high candidate for that.
So when you look at stuff like the big four night crossover in the arrow verse the Hall
of Justice the Justice league things that are happening on the flash right now just
the flash alone.
It just feels like they're laying groundwork for stuff like that to be happening in the
future but that might be a little further off than the stuff.
The Geoff John's is talking about this is enough for this on a close call to myself
over the dominators in the rest the world alone some simple.
As you can't do this and honor know all filings you to keep her home safe very not letting
you leave no offense Oliver the human arm was like you when you accrue roast but if
you're not familiar with the black lightning character he's originally from suicide slum
in Metropolis.
So there is like a bit of a Superman connection they change the way his powers have worked
a little bit over the years.
Originally he wore a belt that allowed him to control electrical field like you can create
electric blasting created for skilled later they wreck on that he became a metahuman that
was just born with that ability, so he didn't require any special gear to be able to do
that but he started out in the late 1970s.
So he was a little bit of a black split Tatian type character you member Luke Cage started
out in the early 1970s.
This was sort of DC's been on a character like that someone from a very crime alley
type place inside Metropolis decided to use his powers to make his city his life better
they've never really explained the fullest extent of his powers, which I think works
to their benefit because they can we surprise you would like some big act of heroism like
holy crap I didn't know he could do that but he's mostly been an outsider's Justice league
character the most recent retelling of his origin story, the black lightning year one
comic book basically reads a little bit like Luke Cage, so that might be how they treat
the TV show, where he comes back to suicide slum with or without his family he has a family
in the comics.
They might do them on the TV show, but he comes back and tries to make it better.
He left because his father was murdered.
So it's like okay this is a crap town.
I'm getting out here but then later he's inspired by the Justice league people like Superman
to come back and make his neighborhood better.
So he's a street level hero even though he's been part of the Justice league, so if you
seen the way the Gotham treats you know films Gotham city like portrays it on screen I'm
expecting the same treatment even though that's Gotham city and technically black lightning
will be going to Metropolis.
But they haven't confirmed that that just where he's from in the comics so they might
be using Metropolis on that TV show but it all just depends on which TV show Geoff John's
is talking about whether or not it's black lightning or something else is just that I
would be very surprised if there's another TV show they like stealth develops in are
going to drop this year it just too hard to do live-action.
That way, so usually what happens is is villanelle to show the like.
A year later they'll actually have it ready for you to watch.
But in related DC TV news there is a big change this coming legends of tomorrow is going to
start hearing on Tuesday nights after the flash so because that's not happening for
a couple weeks till January 24 they'll be couple more trailers.
I'll just remind people when I post my next legends of tomorrow video.
It's going to be a bit of the schedule change, but I will be doing a 2017 video for like
all the new stuff that's coming in the next couple of months now for the entire year,
just for the next couple of months because like Legion for instance of Fox TV shows that
in the X-Men universe is going to be starting in February that a lot people might not know
about so that video will probably post Monday morning just like hey you know, happy new
