April 18th holds a special place in comic book history. On this date in 1938, Superman debuted in Action Comics #1, essentially creating the superhero genre. A year later, in 1939, Batman followed with his first appearance in Detective Comics #27. It’s remarkable that these two iconic characters, who defined the superhero world and continue to be incredibly popular today, were both first introduced on the same day, though in different years. Let’s explore why they are so important.

The 2004 movie Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events is now available on Tubi. While intended to launch a film series based on all 13 books by Daniel Handler, the movie didn’t make enough money to justify sequels. Despite earning $210 million worldwide, its $150 million production cost meant plans for further films were cancelled. The movie combines the plots of the first three books – The Bad Beginning, The Reptile Room, and The Wide Window – and stars Jim Carrey as the villainous Count Olaf. Olaf is a scheming actor who tries to steal the Baudelaire children’s inheritance. After Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire lose their parents in a mysterious fire, they are placed in Olaf’s care and must constantly outsmart his dangerous plans.

When Terminator 2: Judgment Day exploded onto the scene in 1991 as a massive summer hit, it naturally spawned a wave of video games. While some Terminator games are actually quite good, the version released for the Super Nintendo was notoriously bad. Published by the infamous LJN, it was a clear sign of a low-quality product. The side-scrolling game suffered from frustrating collision issues, uninspired character designs, dull backgrounds, and simply wasn’t enjoyable to play. It was a poor game that likely only sold because of the movie’s popularity, and anyone who bought it quickly regretted their purchase.

On April 21st, 2026, six games will be removed from the PS Plus Extra library and replaced with a new selection of titles announced earlier this week. Here’s a list of the games leaving the service on Tuesday for both PS5 and PS4.

A free game called Hello, Yoshi, part of the My Mario series, is now available to download for Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, and mobile devices. The game features Yoshi and allows players to interact with him using the touch screen. It was previously released in Japan last year, but is now available in Western regions.

This week, PlayStation revealed plans to release Wild Arms 4 on both PS5 and PS4. Originally a popular RPG series that started on the PS1, Wild Arms 4 first came out in Japan in 2005 and in the US for PS2 in 2006. While some fans were hesitant about its departure from the series’ traditional Western style, Wild Arms 4 still earned positive feedback and has become a favorite among dedicated players.

Excited to say that I’m playing Saros this weekend! I’ve been dying to get my hands on this one!

A nearly complete 1992 SkyBox Marvel Masterpieces card set recently sold for $65,625 at Heritage Auctions – a very high price for a set missing just one card. What made it so valuable was that all the other cards were graded a perfect Gem Mint 10 by PSA. It makes you wonder if the set would have sold for even more if it had been complete.

Mondo has released a highly detailed, 1/6 scale He-Man figure, called the Masters of the Universe – He-Man Deluxe 2.0 Timed Edition. It’s available for pre-order until April 28th, 2026, and costs $285. While it’s a bit pricey, this figure is potentially the definitive He-Man collectible. It comes with all the accessories and armor needed to create three distinct looks for the character, and each version looks incredible. Let’s take a closer look at what’s included.
