Like many weeks at the end of the month, there aren’t a ton of new releases this final week of May. We’ve added some new seasons of popular TV shows and the special AFI Life Achievement Award: A Tribute to Eddie Murphy, but there’s still plenty to enjoy before the month ends. See what’s available in the weekly lineup below!
Good news for fans: characters from older Marvel TV shows are gradually returning to the main Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). We saw this happen with Matt Murdock in Spider-Man: No Way Home and Wilson Fisk in Hawkeye, suggesting the MCU wasn’t finished with those shows’ characters. Now, the Daredevil: Born Again series has brought back even more familiar faces, including Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, The Punisher, Karen Page, and Bullseye. Despite these returns, there are still several key characters yet to reappear.
Let’s explore the original lineup of Alpha Flight – the first ten members – and rank them based on how powerful they are.
Okay, some of the recent Star Wars stuff really did deserve the backlash – I’ll admit that. Palpatine coming back was just… weird and didn’t make much sense, and The Rise of Skywalker really should have been called out for it. But honestly, there was one live-action show that came out about four years ago that I think people were way too hard on, and it still gets more negativity than it deserves, even now.
Recent leaked footage shared by ComicBookMovie.com reveals a clearer look at a villain previously seen in trailers. The footage suggests this new female character is leading the Hand, the group attacking Spider-Man.
Bandai is bringing back model kits for popular Gundam units like the Mandala Gundam, Gundam Rose, and Gundam Maxter. Some of these were originally released about a year ago, and pre-orders are now open. This is part of a larger wave of re-releases, with fans able to expect these kits to be available in late 2026.

In 2010, Vigil Games and THQ launched a new action-adventure game called Darksiders. It was remastered in 2016 for several consoles, including Xbox One. Now, it’s available on Xbox Series X, and players who already own the Xbox One version can upgrade to the new version for free – without having to repurchase the game or pay an additional fee, unlike many other titles.
With the conclusion of The Boys, it’s a good time to consider how it stacks up against other superhero TV show finales. Like many adaptations featuring superpowered characters, The Boys has sparked debate about its ending. Some show endings are initially well-received but later criticized, while others remain beloved over time. It’s interesting to see where The Boys will fall on the spectrum, ranging from truly excellent to downright terrible finales.
