After much anticipation, March's release of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice made it clear to fans that Warner Bros. is fully committed to bringing the Justice League and the rest of the DC Comics world to the big screen.  A colorful new exhibit on the Warner Bros. Studio Tour further galvanizes the studio's devotion to its beloved superhero properties.  DC Universe: The Exhibit, opening to the public on May 24, features loads of authentic props, costumes and set pieces from Batman v Superman and also gives visitors an exclusive look at screen-used items from this summer's Suicide Squad, months before its release. L.A. Weekly was at Warner Bros. to capture a first look at the new exhibit, and also ran into a couple of familiar comic book fans.  All photos by Jared Cowan.
