DVD Review: Legend of the Seeker Season 2

                                 
The second and final season of Legend of the Seeker picks up immediately where season one left off.  The Seeker (Craig Horner) has saved the day, but in doing so he’s created a potentially bigger problem for the world, opening a rift to the underworld and allowing the Keeper to gain a foothold in the land of the living.
 

NYCC 2010: DC Universe Online

Attendees to the NYCC: DC Universe Online panel were treated to a new trailer expanding upon the one released for San Diego Comic-Con. In this one we see ordinary humans being transformed by the Exobytes Lex Luthor has brought back with him from the Braniac ruled future that was seen in the original trailer.

This was used as a segue into showing the character creation system. Like other MMOs you will choose gender, build, look, costume and power sets but along the way you'll also pick an Inspiration. Some of the visable Inspirations were Circe, Catwoman, Deathstroke, Joker, Lex Luthor, Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman. Each has a personality description and other aspects about the type of figure they are.
