SUPERMAN Post-Credits Scenes Reportedly Revealed and They Don't Set Up Any Future DCU Films — GeekTyrant
James Gunn's Superman just had its first official screening, and naturally, details are leaking online. With select press, influencers, and a few lucky DC fans in attendance, it was only a matter of time before post-credits details surfaced, and now they have. According to scooper @MyTimeToShineH, Superman includes two post-credits scenes, and true to Gunn's word, they're not focused on laying down the DCU's future roadmap. Instead, they feel more like small moments meant to add flavor rather than fuel speculation. 'Superman has two post credits scenes, one is Superman with Krypto on the moon looking at the Earth. 'The second is Superman and Mister Terrific looking at a giant crack in a massive building because the ground split in half during the finale and Supes says it's crooked and Terrific gets all annoyed and walks away and kicks a rock. It's a funny scene.' So yeah… no cameos, no cosmic threat teased, no ominous new villain lurking in the shadows. The first post credits scene with Superman and Krypto has actually been featured on a poster and a TV spot. The Mister Terrific bit sounds more like something to make audiences laugh. For some fans, that might be refreshing. But for others, especially those expecting Marvel-style teases, it could feel like a letdown. That's by design, though. Gunn has made it clear he's not trying to turn every movie into a springboard for the next. Instead, he's aiming for stories that can stand on their own while naturally overlapping through shared characters. Take Guy Gardner, for example. We'll meet him in Superman, then see more of his story in Peacemaker before he pops up again in Lanterns , alongside Hal Jordan and John Stewart. It's a slower, more character-focused way to build a universe. Gunn isn't chasing interconnected chaos. He's crafting a world with breathing room. While Superman's post-credits scenes might not be headline-worthy teases, they will offer heart, a bit of humor, and no rush to get somewhere else.

Superman Furious With Lex Luthor for Kidnapping [Spoiler] in New Clip
A new Superman clip showcases a high-stakes confrontation between the Man of Steel and Lex Luthor. The video, which debuted on Jimmy Kimmel Live on June 26, 2025, offers a closer look at the dynamic between the two characters in James Gunn's DCU reboot. The clip reveals that Lex has kidnapped Krypto, Superman's pet, prompting the Man of Steel to storm into Lex's office. Superman blasts the doors off their hinges and hurls Lex's desk aside, demanding to know Krypto's whereabouts. Lex Luthor remains calm during the confrontation, sipping coffee while Superman rages. This moment highlights the psychological warfare Lex employs, maintaining control and provoking Superman without retaliation. The scene visually reinforces Lex's tactics of using Superman's loved ones as leverage, a recurring element in comic storylines. Kidnapping as a strategy is consistent with Lex's comic history. Previous victims have included Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen, and Martha Kent. However, the abduction of Krypto introduces a new target in Lex's manipulative playbook. This move may indicate Lex's interest in studying Kryptonian biology through a less-defended subject, possibly for scientific or exploitative purposes. Formerly titled Superman: Legacy, the film introduces a rebooted DC Universe. David Corenswet stars as Clark Kent/Superman, with Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane and Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor. The ensemble cast also features Nathan Fillion as Guy Gardner, Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl, and Edi Gathegi as Mister Terrific. Additional characters include Maxwell Lord (Sean Gunn), Angela Spica/The Engineer (María Gabriela de Faría), and Eve Teschmacher (Sara Sampaio). Wendell Pierce portrays Perry White, Anthony Carrigan plays Metamorpho, and Pruitt Taylor Vince and Neva Howell take on the roles of the Kents. Milly Alcock appears as Supergirl ahead of her upcoming solo movie. Superman hits theaters on July 11, 2025.

Review – Krypto: Last Dog of Krypton #1
Krypto: Last Dog of Krypton #1 cover, via DC Comics. Ray: Superman is riding a hot streak like no character has at DC in a long time. Every book in the line has been good to fantastic, and that means spin-offs aplenty. Including one for comics' ultimate Good Boy! Ryan North, making his DC writing debut, is the perfect choice for this – so many of his comics have an all-ages edge to them, with funny animals aplenty. But this first issue doesn't treat Krypto as a comic book character – it treats him, very simply, as a good dog. He's the loyal pooch of Jor-El and Lara, quickly bonding with baby Kal-El, and Krypton's dog culture seems to be very similar to ours – complete with snooty society ladies bragging about their purebred's roots. Krypto is blissfully unaware of the more serious conversations happening between his masters, about the frequent Kryptonian groundquakes and the mysterious space shuttle they're building – at least, until it's time to go for a ride. Napping away. Via DC Comics. As we all know, dogs are not at all shy about getting in the car when they're asked to! But this isn't an ordinary ride – and it makes perfect sense that Jor-El and Lara used their dog as a test pilot before putting their son in an experimental rocket. While the Science Council here doesn't seem to be as villainous or threatening as it's often portrayed (with Lara openly talking about the crisis to a friend), time is still running out. And while the rocket works, things go haywire and Krypto winds up going on a much longer journey than expected – landing on Earth before Superman did and discovering that this planet may not be all that friendly. That is, until he meets an unexpected and familiar face. This issue got off to a slightly slow start, but it has a great central concept. And of course, how could anyone dislike a comic that has a dog as loyal and friendly as Krypto at its heart? To find reviews of all the DC issues, visit DC This Week.

SUPERMAN Trailer Breakdown and Easter Eggs - Including Baby Joey, Pocket Dimensions, and Mr. Handsome — GeekTyrant
The new trailer for James Gunn's Superman has landed, and it's loaded. This isn't just another 'cape and punch' sizzle reel, this thing is a full buffet of deep cuts, clever nods, and interesting setups for the future of the DCU. So let's break down what we saw, and what it could mean. Lex Luthor Is Fully Off the Chain Nicholas Hoult's Lex Luthor isn't here to posture or monologue from a boardroom. He's absolutely unhinged. The trailer doesn't shy away from showing his cruelty, especially in one chilling moment where Lex threatens to murder the people who raised Superman. This Luthor is less "evil genius" and comes off as more "tech titan sociopath," and he's backed by firepower to match. Meet Baby Joey We get a surprising reveal as Superman floats in space alongside Metamorpho, Krypto the Superdog... and Baby Joey. In DC Comics, Joey is the son of Metamorpho and Sapphire Stagg. He's not just any baby, he eventually inherits his father's transmutation powers. His inclusion here implies that Metamorpho has a much larger role in Luthor's plot, and may not be as much of a side character as we originally thought. Heat Vision and Flying in Action Superman doesn't hold back in the action scenes, and we get a great look at his heat vision lighting up some armored goons. It's not a new power, sure, but it's nice to see Gunn leaning into the classic Kryptonian toolkit. The heat vision effects also look sharper and more visceral than past iterations. We also get to see Superman in full-throttle flying action! LordTech and the Justice Gang A blink-and-you-miss-it moment shows Jimmy Olsen working on a laptop branded 'LordTech.' If you know your DC lore, you'll recognize that as the tech company owned by Maxwell Lord. Sean Gunn plays Lord in the DCU, and he leads a group called the Justice Gang with Hawkgirl and Green Lantern. That little logo could be doing a lot of heavy lifting in terms of DCU setup. Who (or What) Is Mr. Handsome? There's a strange-looking white-skinned alien that shows up briefly. It's not confirmed in the trailer, but fans have speculated it could be a White Martian or a genetically modified being. Gunn cleared that up on social media, saying, 'The creature is named Mr. Handsome, and yes, he's a LexCorp creation.' That name alone tells us Gunn is having some fun, but don't be fooled. Mr. Handsome looks dangerous. Luthor's Raptors Lex isn't just scheming in solitude. He's got an elite squad of armored soldiers dubbed the 'Raptors,' and he unleashes them on Superman with Metamorpho in tow. There's a particularly intense moment where Luthor stands in the Fortress of Solitude and declares: 'Now, as planned, I'll destroy you.' Classic Luthor with a terrifying modern edge. Ultraman... or Ultra-Humanite? There's a blink-and-stare moment involving a fully armored villain, who later removes their helmet to reveal what looks like a humanoid ape. Fans instantly jumped to Ultraman, but toy leaks suggest he's also known as the Hammer of Boravia. Given the design, there's a strong possibility this is a nod to Ultra-Humanite, one of Superman's oldest foes known for body-swapping into an ape form. One of the trailer's wildest shots shows Superman floating through debris near a massive glowing portal. James Gunn previously confirmed the film features 'pocket dimensions,' and this sequence drives that home. At one point, Superman even grabs fragments of this broken dimension and uses them like weapons—reminiscent of some of the more reality-warping stuff seen in Peacemaker Season 2. From the inclusion of Baby Joey to the threat of a dimension-shattering war led by LexCorp's finest freaks, this trailer makes one thing clear… Superman is going to be a bonkers movie that will be the start of something awesome!

How to use the Krypto treat in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3
Image via Epic Games The latest Fortnite update has added an unexpected but exciting Mythic item, the Krypto treat - allowing players to summon Superman's four-legged companion, Krypto. While Fortnite is no stranger to crossovers, Krypto's inclusion brings a unique and playful mechanic to Chapter 6 Season 3, titled 'Super. ' From how to find this rare item to the best way to unleash its power, here's everything you need to know about using the Krypto treat. Where to find Krypto treats in Fortnite Despite being a Mythic item, Krypto treats are surprisingly accessible. They spawn randomly in regular chests across the map, meaning all players have a fair shot at finding them. Each Krypto treat offers two uses, giving you a second chance to call in the super-powered pup during a single match. Unlike previous Mythics that are locked behind bosses or POIs, Krypto treats drop in standard loot locations, making them easier to discover in casual and competitive modes alike. How to use the Krypto treat Once you've picked up a Krypto treat, using it is simple but strategic. Just throw the treat (R2 on console or Left-Click on PC) like you would a grenade. Wherever it lands, Krypto will dive-bomb from the sky, creating a dramatic explosion and dealing 100 damage to players, buildings, and NPCs within the blast radius. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Buy Brass Idols - Handmade Brass Statues for Home & Gifting Luxeartisanship Buy Now Undo Krypto is not a persistent companion, he appears, makes his destructive entrance, grabs the treat, and disappears. Think of it as calling in an airstrike... with a cape and a wagging tail. When and where to use it To make the most of Krypto, timing is crucial. Use the treat during close-quarters fights or to break enemy structures mid-battle. It can turn the tide by damaging groups of players or flushing out campers hiding behind builds. Since the treat has limited range and doesn't track enemies, placement is key - aim it into areas with less escape room. The community has embraced Krypto with open arms. Content creator Jack 'CouRage' Dunlop uploaded a crazy fun gameplay and fans on social media dubbed him the 'best boy.' It's another fun twist that Fortnite fans are enjoying this season. As Epic Games continues to evolve gameplay with quirky but powerful additions, Krypto has quickly become a fan-favorite. So next time you spot a treat, toss it - and let the super dog do the rest.
