Until now, Marvel fans haven’t known what the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe could have looked like if Kang had stayed as the main villain of the Multiverse Saga. But now, we’re starting to learn some details about a potential storyline for Avengers: The Kang Dynasty – one that would have involved a surprising team of Avengers battling Kang. Or, more accurately, a version of Kang.

DC’s summer 2023 event, Knight Terrors, was a large-scale story that brought together almost every hero and villain in the DC Universe. The main story, a four-issue series by Joshua Williamson and Howard Porter, along with numerous tie-in comics, centered around the villain Insomnia, who put the world into a collective nightmare. His goal was to merge the Dream Stone and Nightmare Stone, unleashing the heroes’ deepest fears upon the world and destroying their public image. While the heroes struggled against Insomnia’s deeply personal attack, Damian Wayne and Deadman unexpectedly teamed up to fight back. Though the heroes ultimately won the battle, Insomnia achieved his larger plan. Despite an intriguing premise and strong tie-in stories, the core miniseries itself wasn’t as impactful, and the event arguably would have worked better as a smaller, more focused story.

Man, I still remember playing Snowboard Kids on the N64 – it was seriously one of those hidden gems that didn’t get enough love. It was made by Racdym and published by Atlus, and it basically took everything awesome about Mario Kart 64 – the crazy items, the fun tracks, the frantic multiplayer – and put it on a snowboard. The sequel, Snowboard Kids 2, was even better. It took that original idea and really ran with it, proving it was more than just a Mario Kart copy – it quickly became one of my all-time favorite N64 games.

The show had a rocky start, with some fans finding the early storylines too complicated. However, over its three seasons, it ultimately reshaped how we view Jean-Luc Picard’s story. By bringing back the beloved crew from The Next Generation and venturing into new areas of the Star Trek universe, the series managed a satisfying conclusion. The third season was an emotional and exciting send-off, reminding viewers why Star Trek remains popular and giving Picard and his crew the ending they deserved—a truly moving finale.

Reach aims to recreate the immersive experience of Synapse and offer a cinematic feel, but it only partially succeeds.
