It’s tricky to define which guest characters in Mortal Kombat truly fit the horror theme. While characters like The Terminator and Robocop (from Mortal Kombat 11) are popular additions, they come from action franchises, not horror. Other guests, such as Conan the Barbarian, Rambo, The Joker, Omni-Man, and Homelander, also don’t quite match the specific horror style that Mortal Kombat usually incorporates.
Lately, Cartoon Network has been bringing back popular shows like Adventure Time, Regular Show, The Amazing World of Gumball, and Totally Spies! with new seasons or spin-offs. Reboots of The Powerpuff Girls and Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends are also planned, showing that people still love these classic cartoons. Despite all this exciting news, some of the network’s most beloved shows from its golden age haven’t been announced for a comeback.
It’s important to note that all of these fights are excellent – truly some of the best anime battles in recent years. The only reason some rank lower is because they’re being compared to each other. The team-up between Megumi and Panda against Kirara felt particularly inspired by JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, with the Jujutsu Tech characters trying to understand and counter their opponent’s abilities. Kirara’s unique technique, “Love Rendezvous,” added a twist, forcing the heroes to both decipher her powers and try to win her over. This fight stands out as genuinely enjoyable in the third season, a contrast to many of the other battles which are far more grueling for those involved.

The 1990s weren’t just a great time for movies, TV, and video games – books, especially science fiction, were also fantastic. Though sci-fi is popular again today, the 1990s still deserve recognition as a golden age for the genre. Here are five classic sci-fi books from that decade that everyone should experience.
For a while, Fergus’s background wasn’t a big focus, and it didn’t seem important to learn more about it. He always considered the Frasers his only family, and that was enough. However, the latest episode revealed his real parentage, and while it might not seem like a huge deal, it actually complicates things. Discovering that he’s the biological son of Comte St. Germain, a prominent figure in France, could have major consequences.
I often talk about how much I enjoy DC Comics, and April looks like a particularly great month for them! They’re even releasing a special issue of MAD Magazine dedicated to DC – I was surprised MAD was still being published, but it’s fun to see them playfully poke fun at DC. Plus, several new titles are launching as part of the DC Next Level program, including the highly awaited Zatanna series. There’s a lot coming out, so keep reading to find out which books you absolutely shouldn’t miss!
Robert Patrick became a major star thanks to his memorable roles in 1990s films. He first gained attention as a villain in Die Hard 2, battling Bruce Willis’ character. He then achieved international fame playing the unstoppable T-1000 in Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991). This role as a futuristic killer robot truly made him a pop-culture icon, leading to fun cameos as the same character in films like Wayne’s World and Last Action Hero. While he took on supporting roles in successful movies like Rosewood and Cop Land (both 1997), many consider his next truly iconic role to have come in 1999, in Robert Rodriguez’s horror film The Faculty.

I was so excited to hear the news this week! Clear River Games announced they’re making a new Truxton game called Truxton Extreme! For those who don’t know, Truxton is a classic vertical-scrolling shooter that first hit arcades in Japan way back in 1988. It was ported to the Sega Genesis in 1989, and that was the only time it ever came to a home console. There was a sequel, Truxton 2, in arcades in 1992, but it never made it home. The series has been quiet ever since… until now! I can’t wait to play it!
