Despite becoming a key ally to Batman in the first film, Zoë Kravitz’s Catwoman (Selina Kyle) isn’t expected to appear in The Batman Part II. The movie saw her investigating Gotham’s criminal side with Batman and seeking revenge for a friend’s death, a quest cut short when her father was killed. While the first film left her future open-ended, it seems she won’t be back for the sequel. Though fans will be disappointed, this might be the best choice for the story overall.

For a while, it’s appeared Vecna wants to conquer our world as revenge for being stuck in the Upside Down. But a growing theory suggests his actions aren’t about being evil. Instead, he might be using Will Byers, Holly Wheeler, and other kids in Hawkins to travel through time (according to @brendaanngerman). Vecna could be trying to go back and prevent himself from being trapped in the Upside Down in the first place, which would undo all the terrible events in Stranger Things.

With Shigaraki and All For One finally defeated, heroes of all ages are working to rebuild Hero Society. Class 1-A is also returning to school to continue training, though after everything they’ve accomplished, formal education seems almost unnecessary. In the latest episode, Ochaco faces a significant personal challenge: confessing her feelings to Deku. Throughout the final battle, both she and Toga fought not only for the future of Hero Society but also for Deku’s attention. This new scene provides the intimate moment fans have been hoping for, and author Kohei Horikoshi delivers with some fantastic new artwork, which you can find below.

Rick Riordan has been very open about his disappointment with the Percy Jackson movies, once describing the scripts as devastating to his work. However, speaking with ComicBook before the Season 2 premiere, he shared that he now understands the challenges of adapting a book for the screen. He’s also happy he’s been able to help shape the Disney+ series to better serve both longtime fans and the story itself.

Batman is one of the few heroes who could realistically go up against the X-Men, even facing the whole team. He’s skilled at fighting all kinds of opponents, with or without superpowers. While he wouldn’t win against every X-Man, he could definitely defeat a good number of them. Here are ten X-Men who would likely lose to Batman, though some battles would be more challenging than others.

Here are 5 fantastic psychological thrillers that deserve more attention. They’re all incredibly gripping and will really get under your skin.

At Tokyo Comic Con this week, Marvel announced a crossover event bringing their heroes into the world of Silent Mobius. Creator Kia Asamiya revealed artwork showing characters from his series alongside popular Marvel figures like Spider-Man, Wolverine, Doctor Strange, Captain America, and Iron Man. Although a release date hasn’t been announced, this collaboration highlights Marvel’s increasing interest in blending their universe with manga and anime. Interestingly, this isn’t the first time Asamiya has drawn Marvel superheroes.

Each film really stands on its own, and we only consider continuing if there’s a compelling story to tell – it’s never just about making money. I felt that way even with the first movie. I wasn’t sure how they could continue, but Scott reached out with an idea, and I immediately supported it. Scott has a clear vision, and if he believes there’s another story worth telling, it’s going to be good. So, if he comes up with another idea and sees a way to move the story forward, I’d definitely be open to it,” Thames explained.

I’m a huge anime fan, and while I love what modern studios are doing, I’m always drawn back to the classics. Toei Animation is, in my opinion, one of the most important studios ever. They really changed the game back in the 80s and 90s, and so many of the shows they created practically defined the shonen genre – you can see their influence in tons of popular anime today! I’m so excited to share a look at some amazing Toei Animation series that everyone should check out if they haven’t already.

After a long wait, Nintendo released Metroid Prime 4: Beyond on December 4, 2025, for both the Nintendo Switch and the new Switch 2. Fans who’ve followed the game since its initial announcement in 2017 at E3 were thrilled to finally play it. The game’s development had a rocky start, beginning at Bandai Namco Studios before being restarted at Retro Studios due to concerns with the initial progress, which caused significant delays. Nintendo showed off more of the game in June 2024, further building excitement for those who had been waiting years.
