Here are 5 amazing holiday-themed comics to get you in the festive spirit!
I’ve always been fascinated by the Absolute Universe, and its twists and turns never cease to amaze me. Take Wally West, for example. While he’s usually known as the third Flash, in this universe, he was the very first! The first issue of Absolute Flash showed me how he got his powers – a tragic accident during one of Barry Allen’s experiments. It was heartbreaking, because the accident cost Barry his life. But that’s the thing about the Absolute Universe – even death isn’t necessarily the end, as we’ll soon find out!
Released on December 19, 1969, On Her Majesty’s Secret Service stands out as a unique entry in the James Bond series. Adapted from Ian Fleming’s 1963 novel, it’s the sixth film overall and marks a significant change: it’s the first to star George Lazenby as Bond, as Sean Connery had decided to retire from the role after You Only Live Twice. But Lazenby’s casting was just the beginning of what makes this film different from all the others—many fans consider it the best one, despite its understated quality.
Border Hunters stars Norris as Jake, a man imprisoned for avenging his brother’s murder by a dangerous cartel. Surprisingly, he’s pulled from prison by authorities who need his unique skills – a combination of law enforcement and military training – to take down the cartel’s leaders. It’s a second chance for Jake to get revenge, but this time, he’s working with the system, alongside Danford Comins, Julia Macias, and Christina Urias.

Here are five great games on the GameCube that impressed fans with an excellent story.
Look, the sequels weren’t terrible, mostly. But they completely undid a really smart move the first movie made in its final act, and honestly, it felt like a big step backwards. It just didn’t make sense to me why they’d reverse course like that.
According to data from FlixPatrol, The Great Flood is now the most popular movie on the streaming service, surpassing Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery.
The horror film Him, which was widely considered a failure when released in 2025, has surprisingly become the most-watched title on Peacock during its first weekend on the streaming service, according to data from FlixPatrol.
As a huge Superman fan, I was really intrigued when I heard about this miniseries, Superman: The Kryptonite Spectrum. It basically follows Clark as he encounters four brand new types of kryptonite and, you know, experiments on himself to see what they do. But honestly, it felt less about Superman and more about giving Lex Luthor all the info he needed! He uses what Clark learns to build this ultimate villain – a Kryptonite Man powered by all the different kryptonite types. And get this – DC also used the series as a way to quietly retcon one of the most debated kryptonite variations ever! It was a bit of a weird story arc, if I’m being honest.
