Susana Polo

Susana Polo thought she'd get her Creative Writing degree from Oberlin, work a crap job, and fake it until she made it into comics. Instead she stumbled into a great job: founding and running this very website (she's Editor at Large now, very fancy). She's spoken at events like Geek Girl Con, New York Comic Con, and Comic Book City Con, wants to get a Batwoman tattoo and write a graphic novel, and one of her canine teeth is in backwards.

First Look at Brandon Routh Suited Up As The Atom for Arrow and The Flash

Brandon Routh's second film role set in the DC Universe is, shall we say, somewhat smaller than his previous one. But it's still got a pretty great suit.
