The popular manga series Deadpool: Samurai, a collaboration between Shonen Jump and Marvel Comics created by Sanshiro Kasama and Hikaru Uesugi, is returning after a hiatus. Originally launched in 2020, the series paused in October 2024, but will resume releasing new chapters starting January 15th. Shueisha announced the return to celebrate the occasion.
Man, Growlanser was a game-changer when I first played it. The battles were really strategic, the characters felt genuine, and the story actually branched depending on my choices – it was surprisingly mature for something I picked up on a whim! I was just a kid and grabbed it because the cover looked cool at the store with my parents, but it’s stuck with me ever since. It’s a shame it seems to have been forgotten by a lot of people, even the developers themselves, but I still remember how much I loved it.

Following up on the excellent first issue, Batman/Green Arrow/The Question: Arcadia #2 delivers a compelling continuation of the story. The first issue laid the groundwork, and this one brings the conflict to a head. Writer and artist Gabriel Hardman truly shines in his portrayal of the characters, each feeling integral to the narrative. The Question acts as a gritty, street-level detective, while Green Arrow passionately challenges the powerful elite. Batman, as always, strives to uphold order, but with a healthy dose of skepticism. Like many classic DC comics from the 1980s, this series skillfully blends relevant social themes with iconic superheroes, and Hardman clearly understands what made those stories so impactful.
Everstone Studio announced that the 1.2 update for Where Winds Meet will be available worldwide on January 9, 2026. This follows a fun New Year event called “Goose Overlord,” which playfully changed the game and its online presence with goose-themed decorations and activities.
After the disaster, a young American woman named Ava (Daisy Ridley) volunteers to identify the bodies, hoping to find out if her husband was among those killed. However, she soon discovers that some of the deceased are mysteriously coming back to life. She teams up with Clay (Thwaites), a seemingly casual man who joins the effort almost out of curiosity. Even though Thwaites is familiar with horror movies, he admits dealing with actual reanimated corpses is far more frightening than he expected.
We recently learned a lot about the Joker’s past in Absolute Batman #15, including some surprising revelations. However, many mysteries remain, particularly surrounding his secretive Ark M project.

The zombie film, We Bury The Dead, features Daisy Ridley (known from Star Wars) in a story with a twist. In this world, a failed U.S. government experiment has essentially switched off the brains of everyone – people and animals – on the island of Tasmania. This leaves most of the population dead and decaying, though a few become more typical, traditional zombies. Ridley plays Ava Newman, who is determined to find her husband, who was away on business. She volunteers to help clear the bodies, hoping it will bring her closer to him.
