X-Men '97 Season 2 — July 1
Picking up from the jaw-dropping finale of the first season, the displaced mutant heroes find themselves scattered across different eras of time in X-Men '97 season 2. While some were stranded in ancient Egypt, the other half are lost in a dystopian future far from their present time.

In a toxic, dystopian future, Silo follows a community surviving inside a giant underground silo that is bound by strict regulations they are led to believe are meant to protect them.
Moving at a breakneck pace, Silo season 3 is set to tackle a unique split-timeline, where fans can expect to see Juliette (Rebecca Ferguson) continue her dangerous surface-world discoveries, only to uncover a deep-dive origin story tracking the original birth of the silos. The third season picks up with Juliette attempting to survive the desolate outside world while her home, Silo 18, teeters on the brink of an all-out civil war fueled by the rebellion she left behind.

The complex, trauma-bonded tension between Maggie and Negan raises the heat in The Walking Dead: Dead City season 3 as it finds the duo trapped in the middle of a brutal, militarized turf war between local factions fighting to weaponize the city's unique walker-methane power source, testing whether the two can truly move past their traumatic history.

Bruce Timm's gritty, noir-drenched 1940s reimagining of the Dark Knight returns to track a younger, colder Batman fighting a corrupt Gotham City. Batman: Caped Crusader season 2 continues to capture the dark, psychological edge of the classic '90s animated universe. Season 2 is expected to drop all ten episodes at once, while also introducing the iconic villain, the Joker, following his silhouette tease at the end of season 1.
