Despite working with many people, Kurt Russell was actually John Carpenter’s most frequent and successful collaborator. However, not all of the five films they made together were equally strong.
The comic book event Crisis on Infinite Earths dramatically reshaped the DC Universe, including the history of the Justice League. Originally, Wonder Woman was a founding member, but Crisis altered that. After the event, Wonder Woman didn’t appear until later, requiring a new origin story for the League. It wasn’t until 1998, in the comic JLA: Year One by Mark Waid, Bryan Augustyn, and Barry Kitson, that readers finally saw the complete postCrisis* origin. This version masterfully blended the team’s past and present, providing a satisfying and cohesive history.
Thanos is a formidable enemy, even without all the Infinity Stones, thanks to his intelligence and power. As he collects each stone, he becomes even more difficult to defeat, ultimately allowing him to wipe out half of all life in the universe. With all six stones, he’s almost unbeatable – unless you can strike a decisive blow. Interestingly, one lesser villain from the movies, Ebony Maw, might have been able to defeat Thanos before he became so powerful.
It’s common for popular movies and TV shows to have accompanying comic books, but those comics aren’t always well-made. Often, they’re just average or clearly created to quickly profit from the show’s success.

One of the best examples is a comic book many people have forgotten about: Pennyworth.
For sixty years, the story of Star Trek evolved gradually. Each new series – like The Next Generation improving on the original, Deep Space Nine delving into Federation politics and war, and Enterprise showing the beginnings of Starfleet – added something fresh, but rarely made drastic changes. However, Star Trek: Starfleet Academy appears to be dramatically reshaping the political world of Star Trek much more quickly.
Pixar is building excitement for Toy Story 5 by revealing some surprises! A new poster shared on X (formerly Twitter) shows that Forky got married since the last movie. The poster features all the beloved characters, including Forky and his wife, looking puzzled at a frog-shaped tablet called Lilypad. Lilypad appears to be the central conflict of the new film – potentially a villain, or at least a source of trouble as the toys grapple with kids’ increasing obsession with screens.
