While the X-Men films did a lot right with these unique characters, they also made some missteps. These weren’t just in adapting storylines or portraying characters, but also in limiting their powers. In the Marvel comics, some X-Men achieve “Omega Level” status, making them among the most powerful heroes in the Marvel universe. However, when these characters appeared in the movies, they rarely displayed their full potential.
Captain Marvel often felt like a less prominent version of Superman, but he was a long-time favorite among veteran comic book creators, including Jerry Ordway. Ordway gained recognition in the early 1980s with DC’s Earth-Two series like All-Star Squadron and Infinity, Inc. He became a highly respected artist for the publisher, contributing to Crisis and becoming the main artist for Earth-Two stories, eventually writing Superman comics as well. He was the driving force behind the famous “Death of Superman” storyline. In the 1990s, at the peak of his career, Ordway successfully pitched his dream project to DC: The Power of Shazam!
I remember when The Weekenders first came out on ABC back in 2000. It ran for four seasons and had a dedicated fanbase, but surprisingly, it never made its way onto Disney+ – which was especially annoying because Disney+ had actually announced it would be added back in 2019. We’d been waiting a long time, but it looks like the first two seasons are finally arriving on May 25th! It’s not a full comeback for the show after all these years, but it’s definitely encouraging to see Disney hasn’t forgotten about it.
The latest Rocketeer book, The Rocketeer: Infiltrator, promises an exciting adventure for both longtime fans and new readers. It’s also a great sign for the hero’s overall revival. Another recent release, The Rocketeer: The Island, is based on an unfinished story by the Rocketeer’s creator, Dan Stevens. That story sends the hero on a mission to rescue Amelia Earhart, which unexpectedly leads to a strange island filled with unusual dangers. The Rocketeer: The Island is already doing well with fans – sales of issue #4 increased compared to issue #3. If Infiltrator is equally successful, it will demonstrate continued interest in the Rocketeer, and Hollywood should pay attention.
As a movie critic, I’m looking at the early numbers for The Mandalorian and Grogu, and it seems like the film brought in $12 million domestically from previews on Thursday, May 21st. While not a bad start, Variety reports that’s a bit lower than what Solo: A Star Wars Story earned back in 2018 ($14.1 million). Heading into the weekend, projections had this one making between $80 and $100 million domestically over the Memorial Day holiday, with a global debut expected around $160 million. We’ll see if it hits those marks!
The puzzle game Prism Peak launched in mid-April for PC and Nintendo Switch (including the new Switch 2). It quickly earned high praise, receiving an 86 rating on Metacritic and placing it among the year’s best games. However, its release coincided with the popular game Pragmata, which meant it didn’t receive as much attention as its excellent reviews deserved. Despite this, Prism Peak is clearly a standout title, as evidenced by its positive scores on both Steam and Metacritic. Soon, even more players will be able to enjoy it, with a confirmed release planned for the PlayStation 5.
It’s a common issue for excited gamers: spoilers often surface online before they’ve had a chance to experience the game themselves.
That’s Isola, an ally to the new, younger version of Bond. She’s mysterious, and even M sees her as a tool to achieve a goal. The game also revisits 009, the villain shown in the gameplay footage.
