The Multiverse Saga is building to a climax with Avengers: Doomsday and next year’s Secret Wars. The journey hasn’t exactly been a smooth one, with Marvel forced to pivot from Kang the Conqueror to Robert Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom – who, to be fair, is a more logical villain for a story that featured Doom […]
Image Courtesy of Marvel Comics The eternal battle between superheroes and supervillains defines the entire superhero genre and has been the source of countless stories. In both DC and Marvel Comics, heroes constantly fight to protect the innocent and uphold the law against immoral villains. However, not every confrontation between a costumed crimefighter and criminal ends in violence. In fact, […]
When Return of the Jedi left theaters in 1983, it also left Kenner’s massively popular Star Wars toyline with an expiration date. Without new media to support the line and inspire new, viable characters, it was a matter of time until retail and consumer interest faded. Kenner did a laudable job milking Return of the […]
Image Courtesy of Rockstar Games A new report has claimed that the first gameplay trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6 will be released imminently.

Kevin Feige hints rights issues for the Kingpin should be easy to solve after Spider-Man: Brand New Day, setting up Vincent D’Onofrio’s potential big screen future.

Courtesy of David Production JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Steel Ball Run is coming back to Netflix later this Fall with its second wave of episodes, and the producer behind the series explained why there’s been such a long wait before these new episodes.

Darth Vader has always been defined by Padmé. As the Dark Lord of the Sith told Obi-Wan Kenobi, he believed he had put Anakin Skywalker to death; and he thought that because, in Vader’s view, Anakin died with Padmé. Darth Vader is simply what was left, a funeral pyre on which Anakin Skywalker’s soul burned. […]
Courtesy of Bethesda Studios The Elder Scrolls series is often defined by Morrowind, Oblivion, and Skyrim, the three “western-style” beloved RPGs developed by Bethesda Studios.

A new group of creatives swept the comedy movie scene in the late 1970s with the release of National Lampoon’s Animal House, leading to a wave of classics in the 1980s that include Caddyshack, Stripes, Ghostbusters, and more. Many of these movies are still discussed and being discovered by new fans, but one of the […]
Disney has brought back some of its biggest animated franchises in recent years to major success.

Unfortunately, while some revivals might have a long road ahead, another has […]
The Dark Knight was Christopher Nolan’s big breakout hit, but in the 18 years since that landmark superhero film debuted, the director has proven time and time again he can be a massive box office draw without Batman.

Courtesy of Bones One of Crunchyroll’s darkest action anime hits is coming back for a second season, and fans have gotten the first look at what to expect from the new episodes. 2025 was a fantastic year for anime with not only standout new debuts, but returns of some big franchises that fans had been waiting for.

Disney owning everything is bad in some ways, but in others, it’s honestly kind of good. The Mouse owns Marvel, Star Wars, the Predator, the Aliens, the Planet of the Apes, and numerous other classic franchises and that means that we can get crossovers that we’ve always dreamed of thanks to Marvel Comics. Marvel’s line […]
There are very few South Park characters who can claim to be as instrumental to the show’s success as Eric Cartman.

X-Men ’97 Season 2 has pretty much confirmed the next season’s story.

It’s one thing to collect action figures, but displaying them is a whole different ball game.

Image Courtesy of Sony Pictures Marvel Studios treats its shared universe as a decades-long project rather than a franchise built one release at a time.

That kind […]
Image courtesy of Sony Pictures Spider-Man: Brand New Day doesn’t open in North American theaters until Friday, but Tom Holland’s fourth solo outing as Peter Parker has already become one of Marvel Studios’ and Sony’s biggest successes.

One superhero movie from almost 40 years ago shaped Jim Carrey’s blockbuster career, while its sequel proved that the star truly is irreplaceable just over a decade later.

Image Courtesy of Marvel X-Men ’97 just took an unexpected turn, featuring the most surprising mutant death to date.

Walt Disney Pictures. Disney has a long history of trying to turn its theme park rides into movies, usually to mixed results.

But where […]

With Spider-Man: Brand New Day hitting theaters just this week and Avengers: Doomsday reveals continuing to be rolled out, it makes sense that MCU fans’ attention is primarily fixed on these two upcoming movies.

More than a decade after Star Wars: The Force Awakens hit the big screen, the Star Wars sequel trilogy continues to get hate.

Image Courtesy of Marvel When it comes to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, despite being a massive franchise with an ever-growing catalog of movies and television shows and character stories there is one thing that it doesn’t do especially well and that’s tie up loose ends.

Warhammer 40k fans were ecstatic when it was revealed that longtime Warhammer fan Henry Cavill was set to star in a new Prime Video series based on the hit game, but that was in 2024, and since then there’s only been little in the way of meaningful updates.

Superheroes have proven to be a massive source of inspiration for video game developers.

Courtesy of Paramount Pictures Every so often a collectibles listing appears that makes you do a double-take at the math, and a lot of 40 Transformers figures currently on eBay is exactly that.
