All 4 Animal Crossing: New Horizons Features Exclusive to Nintendo Switch 2

As a huge comics fan, I’ve definitely noticed how much power levels are being pushed these days, especially in Marvel. It’s really impacting the X-Men too! So many of them are way more powerful than they used to be, to the point where some of their abilities are just…over the top. Honestly, it’s wild how strong some of these mutants have become – their powers are completely off the charts!

7 Great Marvel Villains Nobody Talks About

One issue is that Marvel often focuses on big, flashy action over more nuanced storytelling. Villains who aren’t focused on huge plans or world destruction tend to be overlooked in both the comics and movies. These smaller, more personal conflicts aren’t as marketable as epic battles with villains who pose a global threat.

The game features a variety of blasters to suit different playstyles. The Uncivil Discourse, for example, cools down by releasing heat instead of needing to be reloaded. The Modified B-7 Pistol is unique – enemies you defeat with it explode into stasis crystals. Players who prefer a long-range approach can use the Refurbished A499, a powerful sniper rifle that automatically reloads after each shot. And for those wanting a more classic feel, the Heirloom functions like a Wookie Bowcaster, firing explosive bolts.

Prime Video’s New Movie From a Marvel Director & An MCU Star Is a Must-See

Directed by Nia DaCosta, who also directed The Marvels, Hedda offers a fresh, modern take on Henrik Ibsen’s classic play, Hedda Gabler (1891).

Critics have lauded the film, giving it a 91% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. This second collaboration between DaCosta and Thompson is a thrilling and impressive movie that deserves wider recognition.
