2024 saw WWE’s financial resources working overtime, particularly during the lead-up to WrestleMania 40. Five of WWE’s top male superstars – Seth Rollins, Drew McIntyre, Damian Priest, Finn Balor, and Chad Gable – were on the verge of free agency. However, they all renewed their contracts and have continued to be significant figures in Monday Night Raw and SmackDown ever since. Despite WWE’s success in retaining talent, it hasn’t been flawless. The former Women’s Champion, Becky Lynch, left the company in June without re-signing, and she remains a free agent. Similarly, Ricochet, a previous Intercontinental Champion, handed in his notice and has since joined All Elite Wrestling.

As the highly anticipated Marvel Cinematic Universe film Deadpool & Wolverine approaches this summer, fans buzzed with theories about the movie. One theory that stood out was speculation over whether Taylor Swift would appear as Dazzler in the film. However, Swift didn’t take on the role of the beloved mutant popstar. Now, with Marvel’s new Dazzler series, readers can catch a glimpse of how things might have unfolded if she had. In issue #1 of Dazzler, written by Jason Loo and featuring art by Rafael Loureiro, Alison Blaire makes her appearance post-Krakoa in an issue that seems relatively light and airy from the X-Men’s perspective, but Swifties are eagerly waiting to join in.

Fans of anime last had the opportunity to delve into the Band of the Hawk through the 2022’s Berserk: Memorial Edition. This compilation series combined old and fresh footage from Studio 4C’s trilogy of movies, offering it as a tribute to the late creator Kentaro Miura. Regrettably, recent headlines about Berserk are due in part to the controversy swirling around unauthorized fan anime productions, specifically those produced by Studio Gaga. Despite this ongoing dispute, it is high time that Berserk receives a new anime adaptation that truly honors Miura’s masterpieces.
