Electronic Arts (EA) has quietly updated its list of games with online services being discontinued. This time, it’s Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare, with servers starting to shut down on April 28th, beginning with the PS3 version. While the Xbox 360 servers are expected to follow, the PC, PS4, and Xbox One versions may remain online for a while longer. However, EA usually shuts down all versions of a game eventually, so those platforms will likely be affected in the coming months or years.

Throughout the history of the Avengers, both heroes and villains with incredible fighting skills have joined or opposed the team. These characters are considered the most skilled combatants in Avengers comics, capable of taking on any opponent.

Despite the challenges, there’s still plenty to be excited about! The Marathon release is a huge event for Bungie, launching on March 5th. We also suggest checking out Docked and Scott Pilgrim EX – they look promising.

The anime Akane-banashi was originally planned to premiere in Spring 2026, but now has a confirmed release date of April 4th in Japan. Instead of being available on a typical streaming service outside of Japan, all episodes will be released for free on the official YouTube channel for viewers in North and Latin America. Details about streaming options in other countries will be announced soon. You can find a new trailer and poster for the anime below.

Though its popularity waned towards the end, the TV show Lost was once highly praised for its ability to tell both ongoing, complex stories and satisfying, individual episodes. A standout example is “The Constant” from Season 4, which aired 18 years ago and is considered one of the best and most moving time-travel episodes ever made for television. According to reviews on IMDb, it’s still one of the highest-rated TV episodes of all time, consistently receiving near-perfect scores and top reviews, even today.

The game already includes many of the classic Street Fighter characters. However, some fan favorites haven’t been seen in a new game for over ten years, particularly notable characters from Street Fighter 3: Third Strike and Street Fighter 4. Because Street Fighter 6 already has a large cast, any new characters added as downloadable content need to be distinct and offer something different from those already available.

The show Star Trek has often playfully made fun of its own dramatic dialogue. For example, an episode of The Next Generation featured Picard being kidnapped by a species that only speaks in metaphors, and in The Undiscovered Country, a Klingon jokingly suggests a poem sounds better in its original language. However, we didn’t anticipate getting an official explanation for why Star Trek is often so theatrical – and it’s revealed in a surprisingly bizarre way.

You know, when we talk about Green Lantern’s rogues gallery, everyone focuses on Sinestro, but I think we often overlook Carol Ferris, aka Star Sapphire. And honestly, since Geoff Johns revamped the character, the various Star Sapphires haven’t really been ‘villains’ in the traditional sense – though their approaches were always a little… unorthodox. Now, Carol is the last remaining Star Sapphire, and she’s really come into her own, fighting alongside the Justice League Unlimited and proving she’s a force to be reckoned with. But the really interesting part? She’s uncovering secrets about the Star Sapphire’s past that are changing everything she thought she knew.

As a huge fan, I’m so excited to share some incredible news from Dark Horse Comics! They’ve just announced that Berserk has reached a massive ten million copies in circulation here in North America! That includes all the individual volumes and the beautiful Berserk Deluxe Editions that collect multiple chapters. And that’s not all – volume 43 of the manga is coming out on October 27th! They did mention that work on volume 15 of the Deluxe Editions is on hold for now, as they’re waiting for enough material to be ready. If you want to see the official announcement yourself, you can find it here!

Despite seeming like a natural fit, most fans and comic critics dislike the idea of Spider-Man taking on a sidekick. Though he’s had a couple throughout the years – sometimes reluctantly – writers have repeatedly tried to give him one, even when he’s made it clear he prefers to work solo. Let’s explore these attempts to understand why Spider-Man is often portrayed as a lone hero. Let’s jump right in!
