Massve, worldwide virtual launches seem to be all the rage when it comes to promoting upcoming movies, TV shows etc.

It’s been propelled along, of course, by COVID, which has made in-person events problematic at best and has forced companies like DC Comics (they announced this event in response to the cancellation of San Diego Comic-Con in 2020), which just staged the DC FanDome, to go big online.

While granted you may not get the full effect of a roaring crowd or the jazzed-up vibe of people excited beyond belief, there’s still something cool about being part of something epically enormous like this, especially when so many tasty goodies such as featurettes and trailers drop in your virtual lap.

While there was a whole lot of stuff announced at the event on 16 October, here are the trailers that caught my eye.
