Some readers were disappointed with the second issue of DC K.O., as they expected a series of one-on-one battles. Instead, it turned out to be a quest to find the most powerful weapons in the DC Universe. While the issue was enjoyable, some fans felt it didn’t deliver on the initial promise of the series. Now that we’re a few weeks into DC’s “All Fight Month,” I’m starting to worry about something else entirely.
After the recent announcement, these channels started appearing on HBO Max accounts on Friday, but it will take some time for everyone in the U.S. to see them. Once the update reaches your HBO Max home screen, you’ll have 12 channels to explore.
Warlock is the next game from Invoke Studios, the team behind Dungeons & Dragons: Dark Alliance. Invoke Studios was acquired by Wizards of the Coast in 2019, and while Dark Alliance didn’t get great reviews, they haven’t released a new game since. Warlock will be another attempt at a Dungeons & Dragons video game, and hopefully the developers have used what they learned from the previous game to make this one better. I’m really hoping for a new single-player D&D RPG, so I’m staying positive and looking forward to what they create. Here are 5 features I’d love to see in the game.
This week marks the 16th anniversary of the release of Disney’s The Princess and the Frog, which premiered on December 11, 2009. The film was groundbreaking as it introduced Disney’s first and only Black princess. It was also one of the last Disney movies created using traditional hand-drawn animation, before the studio shifted towards computer-generated imagery, as seen in Tangled (released a year later). Despite its popularity, plans for a sequel have unfortunately been cancelled.
Rumors are circulating, thanks to Daniel Richtman’s Patreon, that The Hand – a secretive and powerful group obsessed with achieving immortality – might be returning in the upcoming Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Interestingly, Daredevil doesn’t seem to be involved this time. Some fans speculate this could be Marvel’s attempt to redeem the storyline after the Netflix series’ less-than-ideal handling of it. However, it’s more likely they’re simply introducing a new group of compelling villains, which would also allow for Frank Castle (the Punisher) to continue his vigilante activities within the film’s PG-13 rating. There’s still a small hope that Daredevil might at least make a cameo appearance in Brand New Day.
The anime series wrapped up with a touching, yet somewhat sad, final episode that showed what happened after the long war against the villains. Many of the people who worked on the show have been involved since the very beginning, and its ending feels especially poignant for them. According to Mantan Web, Ayane Sakura, the voice actress for the popular character Ochako Uraraka, expressed her mixed emotions about the series coming to a close.
The 1980 miniseries Shōgun is a prime example of this type of television event. It first aired on NBC as five episodes, each lasting two to three hours, shown over five nights. This format had been successfully introduced by the 1977 series Roots, and Shōgun helped make it even more popular. Based on James Clavell’s 1975 novel, the story follows English pilot John Blackthorn after his ship is wrecked in Japan in the early 1600s. Blackthorn quickly becomes valuable to Lord Yoshii Toranaga, who uses the pilot’s knowledge to outmaneuver his rivals – the Portuguese and Jesuits.

All three projects – It: Chapter One, It: Chapter Two, and the It: Welcome to Derry series – share a common creative force: Andy Muschietti. He directed the first two It films and served as an executive producer on the HBO Max series. Known for directing movies like Mama and The Flash, Muschietti has a knack for bringing captivating stories to the screen. He was originally slated to direct a live-action Attack on Titan film for Warner Bros., announced in 2018, but stepped down from the project in 2023. Although the film hasn’t been officially canceled, its future is uncertain without Muschietti’s involvement, and updates have been scarce.
