Disney+ and The X-Men
Yesterday Disney announced the launch of their streaming platform that is set to go live this November. Disney+ will play host to National Geographic, Star Wars, Pixar, and of course Marvel properties. The thing that most caught my eye about the announcement was that Disney+ originals were confirmed.

Donna Troy Suits Up for ‘Titans’ Season 2
As a fan of the 1980's Wolfman and Perez The New Teen Titans, I was excited to see the live-action Titans series premiere on DC Universe.
