DCN Podcast #180: HARLEY QUINN Season 4 Official Release Date, THE PENGUIN Series Logo Revealed

·51 min·40 clips
Seth Singleton welcomes listeners to DC Comics News Weekly Podcast episode 180 with Brad Felicki alongside him. The two trade a few jokes before promising a mix of movies, TV, streaming, comic books, and a little bit of other DC-related news. The first headline is The Flash. They focus on its second weekend box office drop, with the film reportedly down around 70 percent and sitting near 14 to 16 million. Brad calls the result disappointing, and Seth ends up in the same place without sounding surprised by it. The conversation stays with the idea that the movie still seems to work for the people who have already shown up to see it. The show then moves into a Danny Elfman Batman 1989 interview story. The hosts talk through the way Prince was trying to build a name for himself and how the arrangement side of the work fit into that goal. They clearly like the persistence in the story. A call back a month later matters, and so does the moment when the director tells Elfman to play the march. That cue lands because it connects to how the music felt to them as kids. The episode then turns to TV and streaming news. Max has revealed the official Penguin logo. Seth notices right away that it looks a lot like The Batman branding. Brad agrees that the design is close, but he thinks the connection helps sell the link to that world. He frames it as a practical way to anchor the series inside the larger DC landscape. The logo discussion stays centered on continuity and visual identity. Near the end, the hosts remind listeners that the show also posts video on YouTube. They run through the social handles and mention earlier coverage like I Am the Night and the Mad Love breakdown. The close lands on the show’s familiar sendoff: stay current, keep up with the DC conversation, and read more comics.
