This approach is common in games like *Dark Souls*, and it really emphasizes skillful gameplay. It works because it depends on players carefully watching and understanding what’s happening.

A copy of the 1940 Batman #1 comic recently sold for $651,188 (or $794,449 with the buyer’s fee), according to Goldin. This particular copy received a 7.0 grade from CGC, meaning its pages are off-white to white. Comics in better condition could potentially sell for even more, and one already has – a near-mint copy of Batman #1 sold for $2.2 million in 2021. However, that’s not the most expensive vintage comic ever sold. That record belongs to a copy of Action Comics #1, which went for an incredible $6 million in 2024.

Throughout Marvel Comics history, several well-known mutants have teamed up with groups of heroes who aren’t mutants themselves. This includes popular teams like The Avengers, Fantastic Four, The Champions, and The Defenders. Here’s a look back at those instances.

Dick Hallorann is famous as the chef at the Overlook Hotel and becomes a friend to young Danny Torrance because they both have psychic abilities – a power known as ‘the shining.’ Though he appears in both the novel *The Shining* and its sequel, *Doctor Sleep*, the movies change his story significantly (be warned: he dies in Stanley Kubrick’s *The Shining*). However, Hallorann’s reappearance in the 1960s-set *Welcome to Derry* proves he remains an important character in Stephen King adaptations, and suggests he’ll play an even bigger role in future installments of that series.

Here are seven movies with at least some connection to the works of Stephen King, and they’re all quite violent. If you don’t mind a lot of gore, you’ll probably enjoy them, whether you’re a fan of King’s writing or just a horror movie enthusiast.
