We’ll see Zoë Kravitz’s Catwoman at DC FanDome

The Batman is the newest Batman movie in a long line of them, and Robert Pattinson is our newest Batman. We haven’t seen a teaser in a minute, but that will change at this year’s DC FanDome event, which is coming up on October 16.

“Me and Zoë [Kravitz] did some stuff. It’s a fun little thing,” Pattinson told Variety, hinting that we’ll get new looks at his Batman and Kravitz’s Catwoman. “There are lots of little surprises for it.”

Pattinson has even seen parts of the movie himself. “I’ve seen some of the movie now and it’s kind of really cool. It’s really cool.”

We’ll also get new looks at The Flash movie starring Ezra Miller, the Rock’s Black Adam, James Gunn’s Peacemaker series, and more. The first DC FanDome, which is an entirely digital event, was a pretty big hit, and this one only promises to up the ante.

DC FanDome attendees will get free DC NTFs

For instance, if you register to attend this year’s DC FanDome online starting October 5, you’ll get a free NFT chosen by DC publisher and chief creative officer Jim Lee, and a second if you share on social media.

An NFT, or non-fungible token, is a unit of data stored on a digital ledger called a blockchain that is certified to be unique; no two NFTs are exactly alike, which makes them attractive to collectors, as well as extremely easy to produce.

In this case, DC is producing NFTs of comic book covers bearing the likenesses of Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman and more. According to The Hollywood Reporter, they’ll come in three levels of rarity. For instance, Wonder Woman will include covers at the common level (1987’s Wonder Woman No. 1 by George Perez), the rare level (2021’s Nubia and the Amazons No. 1 by Alitha Martinez) and the legendary level (Yara Flor on 2021’s Future State: Wonder Woman No. 1 by Jenny Frison).

“We spent a lot of time on how to translate and adapt these classic covers into a 21st century format such as NFTs,” said Lee. “This drop pays homage to our 87-year history while visualizing a future in which NFTs play a foundational role in novel ways of interacting with DC content and unlocking new experiences.”

To achieve this promotion, DC has partnered with Palm NFT Studios, which creates NTFs in a way it claims is far more energy-efficient than other companies, NTFs being controversial because tracking them accurately takes a ton of energy, which leads to increased greenhouse gas emissions. “It’s immensely rewarding to work with a partner like DC who understands that blockchain is more than a technology, it’s a sustainable storytelling tool that can reshape the relationship between creators and fans,” said Palm co-founder Dan Heyman. “What does it mean to be a fan? What does it mean to be a collector? These are age-old questions that we get to watch creators like DC answer in brand new ways every day.”

Did I explain NFTs well? Honestly, I have no idea. Does getting an NFT of your very own appeal to you? If so, registration awaits.
