I was researching the most valuable Pokémon cards when I discovered some other trading card auctions with surprisingly high prices—in some cases, even higher than those of the priciest Pokémon cards, though they didn’t get as much attention. Since I find the collectible market so interesting, I wanted to share a look at the most expensive trading cards sold that aren’t Pokémon. Here’s a list of the highest recorded sales prices for those cards.

The trailer starts with a Rotom flying into a dark room and possessing a boombox, instantly filling the space with music. Ditto seems to enjoy the beat, and we’re introduced to Professor Tangrowth in a desolate area that will soon become a bustling town. To attract Pokémon to this new settlement, good food is essential, and luckily, Greedent – known locally as Chef Dente – is ready to cook!

Okay, so if you haven’t played the first God of War game yet, this scene happens pretty early on. Kratos has just lost his wife, Faye – and Atreus’s mom – and he’s trying to figure out if his son is tough enough to join him on this huge journey to the top of Midgard to scatter her ashes. Honestly, Kratos is a total grump at the beginning, and seeing Ryan Hurst nail that moody look in the picture really shows he did his research on the character!

PlayStation players on PC will likely see fewer single-player games released in the future. While some ports already in development may still arrive, Sony doesn’t seem to be prioritizing PC releases of single-player titles anymore.

Ryan Gosling explained to Gizmodo why he decided to star in Starfighter, highlighting director Shawn Levy’s passion and the strength of the script. He admitted he’d previously turned down similar projects because they didn’t feel like a good fit, but he’s happy he waited. He believes Starfighter was a special project worth waiting for and a rare opportunity.

Now that the X-Men movies are part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe thanks to the multiverse, we can really look at how Wolverine has been portrayed on film. The movies haven’t fully captured the range of his powers from the comics. While he’s consistently shown with his healing factor, adamantium skeleton, and claws, his other mutant abilities are often left out, reducing him to a powerful but somewhat simplified character.

Older comic books sometimes featured surprisingly questionable content, like depictions of drug use – as seen on the cover of Green Lantern #85 – or deeply offensive characters, such as the racist villain Egg Fu in Wonder Woman #158. Even recent DC comics haven’t always hit the mark, with examples like the fart-themed (and scented!) April Fool’s Day issue, Harley Quinn Fartacular: Silent Butt Deadly #1. Despite being a fantastic publisher, DC Comics has a history of awkward cover art, and we’re taking a look at 5 examples.

Although Uncle Grandpa wasn’t as widely popular as shows like Regular Show and Adventure Time, it still ran for five seasons on television. The show even got to team up with Steven Universe in a funny crossover episode called “Say Uncle.” Now, with news that Warner Bros. and Paramount could merge, Uncle Grandpa‘s creator, Pete Browngardt, shared a striking image of his character reacting to the news. It’s clear from his post that both Pete and Uncle Grandpa aren’t happy about the possible merger.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, screenwriter Max Landis will be writing a new G.I. Joe movie, marking a potential comeback for the once-promising talent. Landis gained attention early in his career after writing the 2012 hit Chronicle, but his career stalled in 2019 when The Daily Beast published a detailed report containing sexual assault allegations from eight women. Since then, he’s primarily been creating content for his YouTube channel.

Even the lead characters in Absolute Martian Manhunter have been struggling with a powerful, negative psychic force – the White Martian. Things were complicated when John and the Martian paused their efforts so Jones could work on his marriage. Now, the Martian has been captured, leaving John exposed and in danger. At the end of the last issue, John met his new partner, an invisible being calling itself Despair-the-Zero. However, Despair-the-Zero is very different from the Martian, and its actions towards John mark it as one of the most malicious entities in the Absolute Universe.
