A lot of players consider The Forgotten to be the most difficult character to unlock in The Binding of Isaac. And that’s understandable. Unlocking it isn’t just about completing a series of tricky steps – you also have to win a challenging boss fight gauntlet.
This event was considered as dangerous as the powerful Ryomen Sukuna, but the sorcerers weren’t prepared for it – a contrast to the original story. The series depicts a decline in sorcerer strength across generations, which explains why fewer truly powerful characters appear. Although Yuji Itadori and Mahito are present, they’re characters from the original storyline. Here are the five most powerful new characters introduced in this sequel.
Originally, Family Guy was canceled after two seasons, but Fox gave it a limited chance to improve with a few more episodes. Unfortunately, those episodes weren’t enough to secure its future on the network. The last episode aired, “Family Guy Viewer Mail No.1,” would have been the show’s finale if it hadn’t later become incredibly popular through reruns and DVD sales. Twenty-four years ago today, it almost marked the end of the series.
Despite consistently earning a lot of money each year, the Magic: The Gathering franchise hasn’t fully succeeded in the video game market. I’ve been a dedicated player of the card game, both recently and years ago, and while several Magic: The Gathering video games exist, none have truly captured the essence of the experience. They’re usually just decent versions of the tabletop game, and I’m left wondering why that is.
Let’s start with a gadget I particularly like: the Bat-Gauntlets. Recent versions, like those in Matt Fraction’s Batman comic (2025), depict them as gloves that deliver electric shocks. They’ve also been designed with metal, blades, and other defensive features in different versions. What makes them so effective is that they amplify Batman’s already impressive hand-to-hand combat skills. Watching Batman fight is always thrilling, and these gauntlets allow him to pack even more power into each punch, letting him easily overcome stronger opponents. They don’t get enough credit, but they’re a reliable tool for taking down criminals.
The popularity of the live-action series has attracted a lot of new fans to One Piece, and many are now discovering the original story is a manga (a Japanese comic book) by Eiichiro Oda. The show sparked enough interest that people who hadn’t read the manga before are now eager to try it. However, with over 100 volumes and 1,000 chapters, the series is quite long and can seem overwhelming, especially considering the cost of buying all the books. Luckily, about 10% of the One Piece manga is currently available to read online for free for a limited time, making it easier than ever to get started.
If you’re feeling nostalgic and want to revisit some classic games, here are three of the best 3D platformers available on the GameCube.
In 1997, several original members of the Power Rangers Turbo team moved on, including Tommy Oliver, played by Jason David Frank. Tommy passed his Ranger powers to T.J. Johnson and stepped down as a full-time Ranger, though he did make a cameo in the Forever Red anniversary special. But 21 years ago today, on February 14, 2004, Tommy made a comeback to the Power Rangers universe with the debut of Power Rangers Dino Thunder.
As a huge cinema devotee, I’ve always thought Cyclops was the heart of the X-Men. He’s basically been their leader since day one, the one everyone looks to when things get tough. Honestly, if you had to pick a main character for the team, it’d be him, no question. It’s always baffled me that he’s often been underestimated by both fans and the people making the movies and comics. He’s gone through so many phases – the straight-laced hero, the rebel, the revolutionary – but now, with this fresh take on the X-Men, it feels like he’s finally getting the recognition he deserves. To me, he’s always been the most important X-Man, and it’s great to see others realizing that too.
Over the past ten years, Star Trek has seen a resurgence thanks to new shows on Paramount+ like Picard, Lower Decks, Prodigy, and Strange New Worlds. Most of the original cast of The Next Generation have reprised their roles in these recent series, particularly in Star Trek: Picard, which offered a final chapter for those iconic characters. Beyond Picard, many of these actors have made guest appearances in multiple new Star Trek shows, and we’ve put together a complete guide to all the TNG stars we’ve seen – or heard – in the last decade.
