DC Comics has been around for 75 years and had the pleasure of seeing its gratuitously-muscled spandex-wearing heroes adapted to Hollywood productions, video games, and all manner of merchandise. Not to mention a fan base waging a never-ending war over the mechanics of pretty much everything in the DC universe. What medium is left to be conquered by the brightly-colored pages? Why, music, of course.
This isn’t the first time DC Comics has released a music soundtrack. July 15, 2016, will see the arrival of The Music of DC Comics, Volume 2. Available in vinyl or digital, the mix of tunes span a variety of canons, including Superman, Batman, Supergirl, Wonder Woman, The Flash, and… something called Superpup? The full track list is below.
