Streaming Alert Superman: Red Son - becomes available on DC Universe. Based on Mark Millar's graphic novel of the same name, this animated feature depicts an Elseworld where orphan Kal-El's interplanetary ship lands in soviet Russia instead of the U.S. heartland, changing the course of DCU history.
Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. - season 7, episode 4, "Out of the Past" airs on ABC. It was just another average morning on July 22, 1955, when Agent Phil Coulson realized the importance of that day in the S.H.I.E.L.D. history books. With a chip on his shoulder and a genre-bending glitch in his system, he’d set into motion a chain of events that would hopefully preserve the timeline as we know it and ensure those pesky Chronicoms get the ending they deserve. What could go wrong?
June 19
Harley Quinn - season 2, episode 12, "Lovers' Quarrel" streams on DC Universe. Ivy, Clayface and King Shark go to war...or something. We don't even know. DC Universe won't tell us what this episode is about.
