19 Years Ago, an Iconic Comic Book Movie Changed Hollywood in Major Ways

Before the Marvel Cinematic Universe became the dominant force, comic book movies had a rocky start. While films like Superman and Tim Burton’s Batman were hits, earlier attempts such as Daredevil, Fantastic Four, and X-Men Origins: Wolverine showed that making a good comic book movie wasn’t easy.

Released in 2018, Ashen is an action role-playing game developed by A44 from New Zealand. Players take on the role of a wanderer searching for a place to call home in a large, open world.
