I’m totally hooked on this game, Replaced! It’s about R.E.A.C.H., an AI who’s somehow stuck inside a human body. He was made by this company, Phoenix Corporation, and he’s trying to figure out why he’s like this, all while uncovering a bunch of other secrets hidden around Phoenix-City. It’s set in an alternate version of the US, but what really makes it special is the 80s vibe – it gives the whole thing this awesome, unique cyberpunk feel. It’s not just sci-fi, it feels like the 80s too!

While promoting her new release, Fire and Ash, actress Chaplin shared where she drew inspiration for her portrayal of Varang. She explained that she closely observed director Jim Cameron, noting his ability to command attention and action simply through his words. Chaplin realized that Cameron’s power didn’t come from being demanding, but from the sincerity and consistency of his thoughts, words, and actions – which she identified as true power. She jokingly added that Cameron is much more pleasant than her character, Varang.

Deadpool might have some competition! As the Ultimate Universe nears its end, a recent comic issue, Ultimate Universe: Two Years In #1, is setting up the final storyline. Surprisingly, new characters are still being introduced, and we’re finally meeting the Ultimate Universe’s version of Daredevil, who was hinted at a few months ago. Now, fans are wondering: who is this new Daredevil, how is he different from the original, and could he actually be better at breaking the fourth wall than Deadpool?

This details how six X-Men gained enhanced abilities through the Black Vortex, and what those improvements were.

The game with a strong focus on superheroes and storytelling easily won the fan vote, even though many felt the choices last month weren’t very strong.

Here is an overview of the game, via SEGA:

In a recent interview with The Guardian, Houser discussed how Grand Theft Auto games, like the works of classic authors such as Dickens, Tolstoy, and Zola, offer players a compelling reflection of real-world issues and society.

While the big team-ups in Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars will finally bring the X-Men and Avengers together, surprisingly, the Marvel Cinematic Universe will actually introduce at least one mutant character before Doctor Doom (played by Robert Downey Jr.) appears.

So far, the show has most clearly drawn inspiration from the “Dark Phoenix Saga,” with Eleven mirroring the character of Jean Grey, who has telepathic and telekinetic powers. However, Season 4 suggested the creators were starting to explore other storylines, like the “X-Tinction Agenda,” as shown by the collars some of the children at Hawkins Lab were wearing. Now, it’s becoming apparent that another comic book arc, called “Inferno,” is also influencing the show’s direction.
