It was kind of expected that there'd be a double cred weekend at some point, and... its arrived! I'm confident that there'll be quite a crowd at the top of the Titan's Tower, but its too good of an opportunity to pass up. See you at the top of the Tower!
Hello again! Back from RL, and while Update 86 is busy loading (grrrr), I figure I'd post a bit more information on the upcoming DC Universe App. The YouTube video below outlines the DC Universe App, and I've added a few more links as well:
I often find myself sifting through YouTube for whatnot (currently for American football clips), when I came across an intriguing YT Channel titled "Wisecrack". This channel meets the intersection of popular culture and philosophy, and has some intriguing analysis of well known shows. It has a plethora of "Rick and Morty" clips (which are quite intersting), but I really enjoyed "The Philosophy of The Joker" (below). It delves deep into the Joker's backstory and motivation, and is worth a watch if you wish to know more about the "Clown Prince of Crime"! Do consider a viewing, and I will see you in-world!
While the bulk of the DCUO is involved with the Teen Titans: The Judas Contract (e.g. grinding), the larger DC company has officially announced their DC Universe Streaming service will be up and running this fall! The DC Universe is planned to be a "one-stop" location for all things DC (per C-net), and they have a list of new shows coming. In fact, they've released the newest Teen Titans trailer below...
Not sure how I personally feel about this "new, darker" version of Teen Titans (with an "edgier and darker" atmosphere), but nonetheless, if you want to learn more about the upcoming DC Streaming service, please visit articles on the topic at the following locations...
A bit disappointed that there were no bonuses this weekend - just regular grind in-world. Thus, I'm back on the blog, working to catch up a bit. Working on a few angles (aside from the perennial loadout posts), and one of those is "Other-worlds" - notable super-hero-esque/ish worlds that aren't necessarily from the DC Universe. One of my favorites is the Venture Brothers, which will be starting their Seventh season this Sunday night on Adult Swim!
If you're unfamiliar with the Venture Brothers, its essence is kind of a... discordant Johnny Quest, if Johnny grew up to be a terrible "super-scientist" instead of an amazing one, like his father... but that in itself is a crazy story. Mind you, its on Adult Swim, so there's a lot that isn't quite politically correct - but frankly hilarious. I've added the synopsis for the first four seasons above, just in case you need a catchup - but there are, of course, two more seasons after that.

From the machinations of the League of Calamitous Intent, to analysis of how heroes and villains arch, to well... a ton of stuff, the Venture Brothers is easily one of the best super-hero shows around! If you go to the Adult Swim website, you can catch some full episodes, and clips of other episodes, so don't wait around... go now - you won't regret it!
Today's loadout is a DPS Nature loadout... have to admit I haven't used the nature powerset before, so I'm not familiar with it, but it is a classic healer choice, so seemed like a good post! See you in-world!
