During Summer Game Fest 2026, ComicBook played a demo of Blood Message that showcased its story, visuals, and gameplay. We were particularly impressed with the combat system, which revitalized the often-overused parrying mechanic. While many players, including myself, are usually tired of parrying, Blood Message made it feel impactful, useful, and genuinely exciting again. The demo, offered to media at SGF, proved this.
Several popular manga series in Shonen Jump are nearing their conclusions, with creators either announcing final storylines, indicating they’re in the endgame, or showing clear signs of wrapping up. As we move further into the year, it’s becoming apparent that some of these long-running titles might not last until 2027. Here’s a look at the Shonen Jump series that fans should watch for potential endings.
Steven Spielberg is famous for making iconic alien movies like E.T., and he’s continuing that legacy with a new film coming out in 2026. Disclosure Day, releasing on June 12th, will be his first alien-themed movie since Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. While details about the plot are being kept secret, many fans are revisiting E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial in anticipation of the new release.
While Marvel and DC are known for their strong heroes, independent comics have created some incredibly powerful characters – a few even rivaling or surpassing those from the big two.

The third season of House of the Dragon is starting with a major event: the Battle of the Gullet. This large-scale sea battle pits Corlys Velaryon’s fleet against the Triarchy, led by Sharako Lohar and backed by Tyland Lannister.

Showrunner Ryan Condal has even called it “arguably the craziest episode of TV ever made.”
During Summer Game Fest 2026, ComicBook had a chance to play Control Resonant. The game emphasizes its atmosphere and how it plays. Players who enjoyed the first game will find the gameplay familiar, but the new focus on fast-paced, hack-and-slash combat might be unexpected. This combat is unique because it features a lot of aerial movement, keeping players mostly off the ground. Thankfully, it’s a welcome change! The combat feels similar to the smooth, flowing combos in Kingdom Hearts, but with a darker, gothic style, resulting in a really enjoyable experience.
Recent reports, including one from last month, indicate that Kingdom Hearts 4 is on track to be released in 2027.
